THE SOUTHERN CYCLONE

| The telegraph gives the following I'd
ditional particulars OF the destruction o
Indianola: .sThe wind from the eas
veriDg to the north, on Friday morning
became more steady, increasing to gale
The water was waist deep and every man
woman and child was seeking q place oil
safety. The screams Of women and
children could be heard In every direc.
ton. The water was six feet deep in
the streets. AtoEt two o'clock Fridsy
morning the wind veered to the north
west. The waves became chopped and
houses were washed away or tumbled ia
pieces. The wind toward morning came
to luIl and the waves were getting low.
Ter till the wind veered to the north. At
length daylight began to break and then
we behold the awful destruction around
and thanked our Cod that we had been
saveJ. But our perilous condition was
nothing compared with the sufferinRs OF
our neighbours aud citizens alosg the
bay. Daylight revealed scene that was
terrible to behold. The town could not
be recognized as the Indiancla of the day
previous. There was total ruin every.
where.
People were seen walking and jumping
over one gully and then another. Neigh
Dor met neighbor and told their troubles
and tribulations of the night previous.
Death and destruction was all around US.
Houses were crushed to the ground, and
others swayed. around or leaned over.
The wind dying down and the water dis
appearing from the streets, the bodies OF
men, women and children were found in
all directions. Police and guards were
and search was made Tor miss
ing relatives and friends. How many
have lost their lives in this fearful storm
it is impossible to learn. Up TO this hour
60 or 20 bodies have been found buried.
Women were found, men also, who had
floated of on doors, or anything they
could get, for miles away. Some beneath
their roofs were carried away long dis
lance. The escape Of SO many is mirscu-
lous. The search for bodies is still going
IN, and the plumber of human beings
will never be known, as there
we're large number of strangers in town.
We estimate the number of lives lost vt
$50.
