Fuller reports of the hurricane which
passed over central and eastern Iowa.
Thursday. show that it was one Of the most
violent storms on record. At Des Moines
it was the severest thunderstorm known
for years Nine houses, including the
Methodist church, were blown down or
moved from their bases by the wind. An
unknown man stopping at a farmhouse,
was killed in his bed by lightning.
Further east. in Washington county, the
fury of the whirlwind, accompanied by
hail and rain, was still more severe. The
storm passed over 4 section of the county
about six miles north Of the city Of Wash
ington, in the afternoon. its path being
about half mile in width, and it tore
into fragments everything in its course.
Houses, barns. fences, trees, cattle and
human beings were caught up and whlsk-
ed through the air like mere toys. and then
dashed to the ground with such violence as
to produce instant destruction. Houses
and barns were torn into fragments and
scattered in all directions, and, for miles
around the fields are dotted with large
timbers driven into the ground at an
angle of 30 degrees 1t is said that cattle
were actually driven head-foremOst into
the ground.
Already reports have been received Of l3
farm-houses and many barns that were lit
orally torn to pieces, and Others badly dam
aged. School was in session at a school
house six miles north Of Washington, and
the tornado tore the building to pieces and
carried the l4-years-old daughter Of Henry
Rothmel about a quarter of mile from the
school, where she was found mashed to a
Jelly. Miss Smith, the teacher, and six or
eight scholars were injured, some Of them
severely The wife of Henry Walters was
killed. A Miss Gardner and the son Of
Abraham Gibson lie at the point of death
Jacob Seek was seriously hurt. Mr..
Baker was hurt in the back. The family
of J. Campbell near Keota were injured.
Mrs. Mccoy was seriously hurt.
A gentleman. who was near the tornado,
reports that it was balloon-shaped, with the
small end to the ground, and moved at the
rate of 20 miles an hour. 1t began its fear
ful work near keota, where it demolished
several houses. The lives of many persons
were saved by their hastily getting into the
cellars of their houses. Sad havoc was
made with all kinds of stock.
