A Terrible Storm and Destruction of
Property.

LONDON, Oct. leon Sunday night,
October IA, the most sudden and violent
storm experienced for many years on
the European coast burst over the Brit
ish Islands. The storm and gale struck
London about ten o'clock on Sunday
yesterday morning. The wind fairly
howled over the city, tearing every NOV
able object from its place, and whirling
the lighter ones like dead leaves through
the streets and over the houses. Its de-
structive power was exhibited in the
suburban districts still more markedly.
Exposed buildings, such as detached cot
tages and villas, were unroofed and 9TH
erwise wrecked. The ornamental shrub
berries in the parks, and trees in many
parts of London were uprooted and
scattered in fragments. On the river
below the London Bridge the gale was
fearfully heavy. AS yet no correct esti-
mate can be formed of the amount of
damage inflicted on the shipping in the
Thames, but everything indicates that
it is very great. In other parts of Eng
land the gale amounted to perfect hur-
ricane, delaying trains on nearly all the
railroads and unroofing buildings of
every kind.

z A tramp came along the other day,
says the Bridgeport Standard, and con-
fided to the impressible better half of
farmer on the road that he was a count,
who was travelling through the country
in this humble way seeking true heart
which he might win and take back with
him to share in the revenues of his i'm
mense estate in Italy. He begged that
she wouldn't mention the fact, as it
might interfere with his cherished plan
of being loved for himself alone. She
promised not to say word about it, and
invited the count to stop with them all
night, giving him the best bed in the
house and the seat nearest the beefsteak
at the upper table. The meal was quite
a revelation to her in the matters of the
table habits Of the nobility of Europe,
the discovery she made in the morn
ing, was still a greater eye opener. His
