and found some distance from the place
where the house had stood. And most re-
markable to relate, all the other members of
the household escaped with their lives, al
though severely bruised by the terrible
wreck. In few minutes after the storm
had passed, neighbours arrived upon the
scene and removed the dead and wounded to
Mr.. DeGraff's.
cit is utterly impossible to give even the
faintest idea of the tremendous power of the
tornado. Thousands of pieces of the house
were blown northeast over the railroad and
stuck in the ground. Some of them are
more than half mile distant. The siding
and light lumber is split and pounded into
kindling wood. The tops of the trees in the
orchard were whipped or torn of, and the
whole scene was one of utter destruction and
desolation.
'sThe storm current passed between the
residences of Mr.. DeGraff and Mr.. Watson.
These are about half a mile apart, and seem
to have formed the boundaries of the tor
nado. Mr.. DeGraf suffered the loss of the
entire roof of his barn, several
hogs and cattle, two farm wagons,
one buggy, and many rods of
fence. His residence barely escaped, receiv-
ing no other damage than the demolition of
the kitchen chimney. His loss will proba-
bly, reach 81 900. The wagons and buggy
were taken up bodily and carried nearly q
quarter of mile where they were dashed to
the ground and utterly demolished. All that
was left of one wheel was the tire and feloes
not spoke remaining. From the appear
ance of the ground it is apparent that the
destructive agent was q whirlwind. Several
persons were witnesses to it's passage over
the lake, and it is variously described. Some
say it appeared to make a. huge depression
in the water, thereby causing immense waves
to beat against the shores. Others describe
it as forming one large waterspout. One
gentlemen said it s'drew up millions of bar
rels Of water" Mr.. Watson's stable was de-
stroyed and his COW blown considerable
distance. His house was not injured.
ttTHE DAMAGE SOUTH OF THE LAKE
must be very great. In less than an hour
after; the storm had passed, horsemen came
dashing into town after medical and surgical
aid for the sufferers. OF course the news
from the country is now conflicting, and
probably exaggerated to some extent. It is
certain that several houses were blown down
and many people injured. J. G. Whites
residence and school house near by are
utterly demolished. Mr.. Whites son is re-
ported badly hurt, and Mrs. jackson, living
fourteen miles south, had her leg broken.

FROM TIE SOUTHWEST
at Missouri Valley and proceeded across the
country in northeasterly direction, doing
damage at Storm Lake, Pomeroy and the adj
jacsnt country. This occurred at between
three and four o'clock Sunday afternoon.
The cyclone was first discovered over the
river from Blencoe, about three o'clock Sum
day afternoon, travelling in northeasterly
direction. Trees were torn up by the roots
in the timber belt along the river, and fences
and houses in its track were demolished.
The first building met, so far as known by
our informant, was new and
substantial frame house belonging
to ]. R. Thurston, which was nearly
ruined. It next took the wing from the
house of Mrs. Reilly, carrying the pieces
over the upright part of the building, which
was also unroofed. It took Mr.. P. Reilly,
who was standing at the time in the wing of
the house, over the main building and some
trees at the east of the house, and dropped
him in the yard, not greatly injured. It next
took the house of Mr.. j. J. Hughes, entirely
destroying both house and contents. Much
of the latter has not been found. Fortu-
nately Mrs. Davis and family, who occupied
the house, were from home at the time.
For the next three or four miles its force
was terrifc-utterly destroying fences, corn
cribs, trees and nearly everything that lay in
its immediate track, and moving several
buildings outside its direct course from their
foundations. 1t took up and carried for con-
siderable distances horses, colts, and cattle,
but so far as known neither killed nor seri-
ously injured any person or animal.
At point some two or three miles south
east of Onawa, it struck the house of Mr..
White, whose family were fortunately away.
The house was absolutely destroyed, togeth-
or with its contents. Not whole board OF
the house, nor whole chair, bedstead O,
other article of furniture is said to remain,
the destruction being SO complete.
THE TRACK OF THE STORM
varied in width from one-fourth of a mile to
mile and half, and is thickly strewn with
boards, posts, rails and lumber. Heavy rain
with q considerable fall of unusually heavy
hail accompanied the cyclone. One pecul-
iarity noticed in the hail was the irregularity
in its form, it being in some cases composed
of many hail stones frozen together in a
ragged mass. One such mass picked up by
Anderson Jewell is said to have required a
string fourteen inches in length to encircle
it. Many of the parties who witnessed the
storm were terror stricken at its violence, and
express desire to escape experiences OF
that kind in the future.
In addition to the above we learn that neal
Onawa man was driving along the road
when the cyclone struck him. The wagon
harness, horses and man were lifted twenty
feet in the air, carried several rods and put
down again, without particle of damage
being done to anything.

"Last Saturday was day of exceeding
beauty and loneliness, and, according to
well-known rules of weather conjectures, it
was confidently prophesied that we we're to
have term of pleasant days. Saturday
night, however, the sky became overcast
with heavy clouds and the rain descended in
torrents. This continued with varying inter
walls during all of Sunday. About five o'clock
there was great comm otion amsng the clouds
and winds. The former seemed to ne NOV
ing rapidly in every direction, and the latter
shifted from one point of the compass to
another.

the southwest and passed over the lake,
striking the northern shore at point few
rods east of south of Mr.. DeGraff's resi-
dence three-quartsrs of a mile east Of town.

in it's track, and in minutes time the build
