THE STORM.

Further accounts of the wind and rain
storm, throughout the Northwest, show
that immense damage has been done.
The wind swept the country like q tor.
nado, unroofng houses and barns or
leveling them with the ground, nproot-
ing trees or swapping them like pipe
STEMS while the rain fell 10 torrents,
ovArAowing creeks and flooding low
lands. Hail also fell, some of the stones
being as large as hens egg. The dam
age to crops, along the whole path OF the
storm is incslculabe, but from all the
points heard from it is reported as heavy.
The tail end Of the storm must have
reached this vicinity about four o'clock
yesterday morning, and though it sp-
peared to have spent much OF its force
in wind and rain it retained all the other
elements OF a first class tornado. The
way it hghtened and thundered was
caution to weak-kneed people. No bat
tie in the heavens, heresbouts, has been
fought for some time, with such fierce
ness and grandeur. The atmosphere was
doubly charged with electricity and the
unpleasant closeness of the fluid, at times
would cause the shocks of thunder TO
sound TO the aroused slumberer very
much like park of heavy artillery be-
ing simultaneously fred from the roof OF
hls house, while the strong reverberstions
that sgitated the air seemed to confirm
it. Altogether 1t was a wild, lurid time,
and was enough to shake up the "innsrds"
| of the nervous and timid.

ROat Race.

SPRINGFIELD, MASS, June 26.-Bet-
ting men and boating critics predicted
well to-day Tor Harvard, who won the
eIgh, Dared shell race on the Connecticut
opposite Sprln gfeld, beating Columbia
three lengths, or l33 seconds. The re-
suit was plain almost from the start, ow'
ing to the superior stroke OF the Har
wards, whose new method Of pulling will
lend much interest to Fridays contest
between the Hsrvsrds and Yale. The
Coiumbis rowed pluckily, but her men
did not take water enough, in the opn.
ion of experts, and the crew came out OF
the race pretty we'll exhausted.
The word was given at 5:22 o'clock

away, by a mistake OF the referee. Co
! lumbia took water first and started ahead

but about two feet behind at the railroad
bridge, three miles from the start. A
| short distance fu! ther down Harvard wa
a length ahead, Columbia rowing wei
together, but the stroke was little more
than splash in the water, particularly
at the bow, while the Harvsrds tool

and held TO the end of the stroke. Before
reaching Mill river the Hsrvards Wer,
far enough ahead TO cross into the Col
umbias path, and thus get the inside. A
the curve OF the river at the end of th'
three miles the crews were seventy-hv'
feet apart. The Columbias relaxed
little Of their rapidity, their stroke OF
the third mile averaging only thirty
five to the minute, and the Hsrvard
had increased their lead to about foul
boat lengths.
In the first part closing the mile
Columbus attempted to spurt, but th'
crew were too nearly exhausted to MAKE
a Orc rctracted effort. HarVards responded
sufficiently to maintain their distance snt
thus they passed the finish. Harvard
