StockHurled Heavenward and
Never heard OF More
Appalling Loss Of Life in its Track

On Thursday evening last, ABOUT
four o'clock, q terrific tornado
struck the northern edge Of Mineral
Point, which was ons of the Wild
est and most destructive In the
history of Wisconsin. Coming
from south Of west, it spent its
chief violence in q belt of thickly
settled agricultural country, quarter
to half q mile in width, from near
the Welsh Settlement in this county,
to Waukesha, distance Of over
one hundred miles. Rain fell in
great torrents, accompanied by
hail. Insalculable damage was
done along the track Of the reck-
less destroyer. Great buildings
crushed like egg-shells, or borne
hurriedly to the skies mammoth
oaks plucksd of AZ easily as tender
flower humanity mangled, bruised
and killed.
The irresistible monster set to
work about two miles south Of the
village Of Mifain (nins or ten miles
west of this city,, in the Welsh set
Element. Mr.. Edward Williams,
was the first victim, his house
and out houses being consider
ably shattered, but not destruct-
lively. Sweeping on, the tornado
took the little Homestead of Mrs.
Jones, mother of John T. Jones,
leaving nothing but ruins to mark
tho place. Luckily she was absent
at the time. John Ovens and Frank
Ovens houses and surroundings
were totally destroyed, and the wife
OF tho latter is seriously hurt. Dav-
id Thomas, Stephen Thomas, J. Ev
ans, John Lewis, H. Hughes, Mrs.
J. T. Phillips, and David R. Davis,
residing in tho settlement, have all
suffered considerable loss Of prop
erty by their houses, barns, farm
machinery, &c. shattered and splin-
tered. No one but Mrs. Phillips,
however, was hurt, and her recov-
cry may be looked for.
Pursuing ito way in a north of
east direction, the wild wind
came through Lost Grove with in-
creased fury, picked up the house of
Mr.. Howe and demolished it in an
instant. Mrs. Howe was horribly
manglsd, and has since died. Mr..
Howe and the infant babe were
dashed madly about, and both are
suffering intensely, with but little
hope for their recovery. Mrs. Nc
Cormick, John L. Miller, Thomas
Kealy, aud James Brown, and the
house Of J. J. Ross, occupied by o
Mr.. Doney, were the next to suffer.
Their places being badly wrecked.
Entering the ravine that led to
Castle Rock, it took strange course
by following around the bluff, and
went in q reverse direction up an
other rayine where Hugh Phillips,
the worthy landlord Of the U. s. Ho.
tel, in this city, had recently built .
large barn 50x30 feet. This Was

cosy little home, which Was tossed
and twisted about in . most pittiless
manner. The roof was misplaced
and tho building raised of the foun-
dation, but most Of the walls were
left standing. Some four or Ave
persons were In the house, and Mrs.
Jacka was the only one who got
hurt, that but slightly. The house
occupied by James Prince WAS un.
rooted John Lanyon's barn racked
to pieces, and tho tombstones in the
German Cemetery laid promiscu-
ously around.
Then the tornado took . grand
bounce, gathered its forces and CEN
tered on Chas. Gillmann's Brewery.
The havoc made here is beyond de-
scription. OF the many Thousands
who have visited the spot oil agree
that it presents the worst scene that
they have ever cast eyes on. The
dwelling was fsarfully wrecked, and
how the inmates escaped, oil bsing
females, is . mystery never to be
solved. One unfortunate girl, how.
ever, Miss Alice thinner of Eden,
was crushed by tho falling chimney
and debris, living only till tho fol-
loving Sunday in agonies Of pain.
The upper story Of the Brewery,
crumbled to the earth, Mr.. Gilman,
Assessor Priestly, and some lsborers
were inside, and escaped death mir
sculously Two horses were laid
lifsless under the rubbish Of stone
barn; the large frame barn was pick
cd of; dead hogs strewed around;
ornamental trees skinned from root
to top.most stem. Slivsrs Of pine
Asw back with such force - to be
embedded in solid maple trees. II
is . general opinion that at this place
thsbtorm was - terrific ~ anywhere
along ies lsss line Of march. Mrs.
Adams house had its roof taken and
It's furniture picked of.
Just above the brewery, where
Mr.. Frank Bohan lived great disolu-
ton presented itself. The structure
WAS whirled backwards Is or 100
yards and shattered to atoms. Mrs.
Bohan was carried some distance and
80 badly hurt that she died from the
effects In short time. Miss Annie
Bohau Is now great sufferer, Mr..
Bohan and his sou Peter were also
very much bruised, and little girl
of John Bohan escaped BY taking to
the root house. The barn and wsg-
ous are gone, and . valuable horse
killed.
A German boy hauling load Of
wood to market was on the public
road just out side tho brewery. The
boy was )alne after his ride 10 the
air, one of the horses used up, the
wood spread over creation, and the
wagon smashed. The Arena stage
had reached the foot Of tho hill, and
turned in tho brewery yard for shell
ter. The driver saved himself and
mail, but one Of the horses Is Grip
pied, and the stage damaged
slightly.
Houses situsted inJeuck's summer
garden were destroyed andMrs Mey.
ers, an occupant Of one WAS almost
instantly killed, anaMiss Mary Jeuck
badly injured.
The City Of Mineral Point was
then loft behind, and the farms OF
John Beardsley visited, barn and hop
house leveled. The school house near
by was demolished. The tsachsr,-
Miss McIlhon, was slightly injured,
.c1%-o ch;ldrao nfIndaon Raardslev
