story of the building. The apartment in
which they rested was only separated from
the roof by an attic. The good ladies In
charge of the Home trembled to think what
might be the fate of the babes, and went to
the apartment full of dreadful forebodings.
Singular TO relate, all ofthe roof, except the
the part covering the little creatures, had
been swept away, and they were left unwet
and safe and sound in their cosy cradles.
AS the matron of the Home remarked, 1t
would seem that "the hand OF God were
here" A lot Of water fell on the attic story,
and Injured that part OF the building,
but the entire damage can be re-
paired for less than $1,000. Many
friends OF the orphans visited them
last night, and were very glad to learn that
nobody had been hurt. Another singular
event in this connection was the narrow es-
cape OF Mr.. Jordan Giles, the well known
liquor merchant. Mr.. Giles was unharness-
ing his horse in front OF the Home, when
suddenly off came the roof with loud
crash, falling few feet from BIN. Tine gray
mare broke loose from the harness ana
dashed out OF sight, doubtless as much as
tonished as her owner, who has not yet
found his nag. The Baptist Orphans Home
will be repaired to-day. The house oppo-
site, which was damaged, belonged TO Mr.
Little, now IN Indianapolis. The main shop
of the Louisville Bridge Company, extend
ing from Kentucky to Oak street, between

ALMOST A COMPLETE WRECK.
The storm striking the southern end of the
building, leveled il with the ground dis
lance of nearly two squares, leaving only
small portion of the building at the north
end standing. One of the worst accidents OF
the tornado was that which occurred on the
southeast corner of Twelfth and Churchill
streets. Here were standing row or cot
tages, the first two separated by a lot from
the second two. The storm came directly
past these and shattered the first two, leav-
ing but little of them standing. The other
two were almost as badly injured, the last,
however. sustaining the least injury of all.
The former one was occupied by John
children. There were three rooms
in the cottage. at the time,
McKenzie's wife and two children were sit
ting in the middle room, while he was out
side in little garden patch on the side OF
the house. He says he saw the storm COM
ing, and, as it struck his house, beheld the
boards in front falling off. He rushed into
the middle room, and as he did so, the brick
chimney came crushing down with the
roof upon them sill. Fortunately the family
sustained but little injury. The father first
eXtricated himself, then his two children,
and finally his wife. The latter had several
was also one child. The furniture was all
destroyed, and but little of the house
mains. The Hospital of St. Mary and Eliza
beth, corner Twelfth street and Magnolia
avenue, was damaged to the extent of about
$500. The roof of the west wing and the
chimneys were blown into the yard, knock
ing number of shade trees down.

taking a little walk this fore
noon. Owing to the Iateness of the
hour at which the rain ceased our reporter
was unable to CLEAN sll the particulars, and
can only give an account OF what came
under his own notice and what he heard
from others. A heavy bank OF dark clouds
was nrst seen in the west, which seemed TO
be going in northerly direction, and it was
not until heavy body of dust came fiying
up the streets toward the east that any
one noticed that portion of the storm
at least had branched off and was pass-
ing over the city. The probabilities are that
much more damage wss done further north
say in the vicinity OF the Battle Ground and
along the Wabash river. as the main body
OF the storm seemed about that distance off
and moving in that direction. At the first
burst there was a universal Settlement of
people to places of shslter, and general at
tempt on the part of horses in the street to
run away, which in dozen or more instances
proved highly successful.
TIE MOST SERIOUS ACCIDENT,
and one that resulted in the injury of several
persons, took place in LinWood, near the
German Catholic cemetery. The root was
down on the school house, while the teacher
and scholars were inside. The shingles on
the north side first disappeared, and then
about one third of those on the south side.
The first intimstion the inmates had of the
impending trouble was the blowing off
of shutter and the breaking of a pane of
glass. This caused the children to crowd
toward the front door, which took them
just under that part OF the roof which re-
manned intact. All had not escaped when
the grand crash came. The chimney on the
north side came down in heap, after the
roof disappeared, and caught some hall
dozen children in the ruins. -Four OF them
were badly hurt, two of them
seriously. These were toe children OF
Fred Dorner and Mr.. Hasty. 1t is a
wonder that some of them were not killed
outright. A part of the roof was blown of
the Lafayette Agricultural Works, but no
great amount OF damage done TO the ma
chinery inside. In addition to the cususl-
ties above named-and we suppose the half
has not yet been told-shade and fruit trees
were blown down all over the city, and
general dissrrangement of grapevines and
shrubberv. 1t is fortunate that there was
no further injury to persons, or indeed that
no lives were lost.

NORTH EASTERN INDIANA.
A TERRIBLE sTORB

Last night about midnight a terrible storm
passed over the line of the Fort Wayne
Muncie and Cincinnati railroad. doing an
immense amount of damage. The principal
ravages of the elements were at the south
end of the road, where travel seems
to be pretty effectually blocked.
Telegraph wires were blown down,
fences leveled, crops injured, and general
havoc produced. The rain is said to have
come down in one solid shest of water.
The first trestle bridge north of Gilbert was
washed away completely, and at the first
trestle bridge south of that station, thirty
feet of filling were swept away. A short dis
lance south of Cambridge City 20 feet of en-
down. The first eulvert south Of
Milton station was rendered impassa.
BILE by trains; the first culvert
south of Lockport was also badly damaged.
Four of the pilings of fine new bridge
over Simmons creek was carried away,
and at a number of places between Cam
bridge and Blossoms the bed was washed
completely from under the track. At Bluff
ton the storm did much damage to houses,
fences and telegraph wires, but did not in.
jure the track. A gentleman from that
place informed a Sentinel reporter that
THE RAIN WAS THE MOST FURIOUS
he had ever seen. 1t seemed for time as
though a second dsluge had come. Blind
ing tisshes of lightning succeeded by deaf
ening peals of thunder accompanied the
rain, which however only continued a short
time. Superintendent WOrthington this
morning dispatched a construction train
down the road to repair telegraph wires, etc.
He has not been able to receive any dis
patches from points between here and Cam
bridge, and his news from the latter point
have been sent by Richmond and Indiana
polls lines. All regular trains will leave
this city as usual, although travel will prob
ably be blocked south of Newcastle a short
time. Advices received report considerable
damage on the Pan Handle and White
Water Valley roads. At Cambridge City the
race track is several inches under water,
and it is feared that the spring meeting is
"busted." The storm seemed to take mar
row strip of territory in its course, as the
Richmond railroad was not affected by it.
No serious accidents are yet reported. Al
though heavy rain fell &C this point, 1t was
unaccompanied by any violence.

AT COLUMBUS.
Stirring UP THE DEAF AND DUNN.
From the Columbus Journal

The storm which struck the city so sud-
denly about eight o'clock last night did
considerable damage in some quarters
while it lasted. The first blow reported was
at Kinks livery stable in the rear of the
Neil House. The roof was taken off and
one OF the walls blown down. There was
considerable property in the building at the
time, but nothing inside was injured. The
damage will probably reach three or four
hundred dollars. The storm next struck
the Deaf and Dumb Asylum and completely
uDroofed the east wing. This wing is ITO
feet in length, 40 feet in width, and is three
stories high. Two of the rooms are
used as sleeping apartments, while
the third is occupied gymna-
STUN. The roof was lifted from its place
and dropped by the side OF the building.
Nobody hurt as far as could be learned. In
falling, a portion of the roof struck the fire
alarm telegraph and broke 1t The line was
repaired again last night. The wind bent
shade trees to the ground, slapped shutters
around lively, blew down chimneys, and
raised Ned generally, wherever it CHANGED
to give vent TO its fury.

county, Iowa, could hardly get along If
the old man should fall into the hands of

four hundred dollars of one Dar-keeper and
one thousand one hundred dollars of

A Thorough Investigation.

The loss of the emigrant ship, Cross
bones, which took fire on the voyage to
Australia, and was burned to the waters
edge, all hands being either burnt or
drowned, with the exception of one man
and boy, was the subject of an inquiry
held yesterday.
The Court was composed exclusively of
ship-owners. Mr.. Sergeant Buzfuz repre-
scented the Board of Trade and the char
terers, while Mr.. Phunky attended on be-
half of the relatives of the lost passengers
and crew.
Mr.. SERGEANT Buzfuz, in opening the
matter, said that they met to inquire into
the loss of the ship Crossbones, by fire,
together with nearly five hundred lives.
No doubt such untoward events would
occur; but, in order to meet the require
ments of the Board of Trade, certain wit
nesses, including the suryivors-one man
and boy-would be called uponto prove
that no blame could be attached to any
one, and that the vessel was all that
could be desired.
The survivors, who had been spending

Old Dutch Proverbs.

We must row with the oars we have !;
and, as we cannot order the wind, we are
obliged to sail with the wind that God
gives.
Patience and attention viii bring us
far. If cat watches long enough at the
mouse's nest, the mouse shall not escape.
Perseverance will obtain good cabbage
and lettuce where otherwise nothing but
thistles will grow.
The ploughman must go up and down,
and whatever else may be done, there is
no other but this long way to do the work
well.
Learn to sleep with one eye open. As
soon as the chicken goes to roost it is a
good time for the fox.
Fools always will ask what time it is,
but the wise know their time.
Grind while the wind is fair, and if you
neglect, do not complain of Gods provi-
dence.
God gives feed to every bird, but he
does not bring it to the nest in like man
ner he gives us our daily bread, but by
means of our daily work.
The dawn of day has gold in its mouth.
He that lags behind in road where
many are driving, always will be in
cloud of dust.
Never set your feet in i dirty and crook
ed path for the love of money. 1t is
work that will bring bad interest if you
wish to suck honey of thistles.
You will need a long spoon if you wish
to eat with the devil out of the same dish.

Useful Cinnamon.

Up country residents are availing them
selves very largely of the services of Chi
nese for almost every description of labor.
They may be found occupied as grooms,
walters, and cooks, at hotels, laborers in
the harvest field, or fulfilling the duties of
wood and water Joeys," whenever a set
tier may require their services, while many
possessing sufficient strength of muscle
are employed in gold mining claims. The
latest application of Celestial labor, APP
pears to have been to the duties of nurse
maids, as in the neighborhood of the low
er Molyneux, this innovation has been ae-
complished. A Chinaman, in the employ
ola settler, had become sufficiently domes-
ticated as to be entrusted with the care of
children, and he succeeded so satisfactor-
lily that family of FIVE youngsters could,
in the absence of their maternal parent for
periods of whole fortnight together, be
committed to his charge. His successes
in the management of children were so
frequent that he was permitted to under
take the weaving of an eight months old
baby, and which he thoroughly and effect
ually accomplished. Female helps now,
so scarce and chary of their services even
at the very highest rate of wages, should
take warning in time, or they may possibly
some day wake up to the reality that old
notions respecting feminine do.
