a furious gale sprang up about 9
O'Clock yesterday morning, and swept
down the canyon with a violence that
threatened the safety Of everything
that was not firmly anchored to the
ground. Old Boreas was evidently in
one OF his most playful moods, and in
his frolics tore off loose shingles, rip
ped OFF roofs, blew down smoke
stacks, carried away fronts of build
lngs and otherwise disported himself
with a rudeness most annoying to
those who suffered from his freaks.
Beside the minor incidents of the day,
the incidental damage was considera-
Die. The front portion of the building
on South Main street, owned and oc-
cupied by Mr.. Harmon as a lodging
house, was thrown out into the street,
leaving the front series of rooms both
on the first and second floors exposed.
The damage was not very great, and
will soon he repaired. The roof of the
adobe building opposite the Eureka
Consolidated works, and occupied by
Miss b. Brod as a boarding and lodg-
ing mouse, lost a portion OF its roof,
the same being lifted off and carried
n the adjoining corral. Later in the
day the Richmond refinery sack on
the hillside south of the works, fell
with a crash, it being com pletely de
molished by its sudden descent. A
few tent roofs were carried away, a
couple OF cabins on the western slope
