TORNADO IN IOWA.
Lives Sacrificed and Property De-
stroyed.

A terrific tornado or whirlwind, ac-
companied with hail and rain, passed
over Washington county about SIX
miles south Of Washington, Thursday
afternoon, May ~. 1t went in
south-easterly direction. The lorna
do was about half mile in width.
and tore into pieces everything tina,
came in its course. Houses, fences.
trees, cattle, and human beings were
caught up and whirled through the
air like toys, and then dashed to the
ground with such violence as to pro-
duce instant death. Houses and
barns were torn to fragments and
scattered for miles around. Fields
are dotted with large timbers driven
into the ground at an angle Of ninety
degrees, and cattle were actually
driven head foremost into the ground.
One can scarcely conceive Of the dew
astation or realize the force Of the
tornado. Already we have heard Of
thirteen farm houses and many barns
that were literally torn to pieces and
many others badly damaged. A
school was in session about six miles
north Of here, and the tornado tore
the building in pieces, and carried the
fourteen-year-old daughter Of Henry
Rathmel about quarter Of mile
from the school house, and wher
found she was mashed to a Jelly

it destroyed two or three houses, an,

that measured nine inches in diane
ter. Some were brought to thi
city, and four hours after they wer
picked up they were still as large a
hens eggs. The roaring of the tor
nado was fearful, and could have bee
heard easily ten miles distant. A
this place, six miles away, it was per
fectly appalling, surprising in terro
anything we ever heard, except tn
rear and din of a terrific battle.
A telegram from Keota, last night
says that FIVE persons were kille,
about three miles from that place
one child was torn to pieces.

points on the line OF the terrible de

amount of damage done, but it mus
be many thousand dollars. Man,
more lives probably were lost thai

DE Wit Observer.
We suppose the ADVERTISER will
be made in some way to bear the
blame for this expression of doubt re-
garding the Posts steadfastness, and
wish in advance In this instance, to
say that 1t is not our fault that people
can't understand what the Post man
means. To avoid the frequent mis-
understanding he should make an
appendix to those double ended and
long winded editorials stating which
side OF the subject presented he really
intended advocating. We don't
charge anything for this advice.
