No Doubt OF 1t.

The Idahoan says some one wrote
an editorial for the WoRLD On the
Mormon question Now, Brother
Foster, we have no doubt as to who
writes the editorials for the sheet OF

think there is ai.,thcr man in the Ter

whole paper without saying more than
an ordinary man would in few lines

Work is being pushed ahead at sink

ore is decomposed. and yields two and

case witt. the Forest King. III Gam

not tapped by the lower tunnel, but a

have two good lodges. and the Bel

Terrible Western TOrnadOes.
MANY PEOPLE KILLED-FREAKS Ol
THE WIND.

MANY PEOPLE KILLED-FREAKS OF
THE WIND.
A terrible storm of wind and rain
passed over Northern Kansas and
Southern Nebraska on Friday evening,
May 30. 1t extended through almost
the whole northern tier of counties in
this State, but was most violent be-
tween the Blue Rapids and Centennial
stations on the Central Branch Rail-
road, and about thirty miles apart.
The storm moved in direction little
north of east, and passed into Neb-
raska through Richardson county.
The town of Irving, Kansas, was
almost destroyed. At that place the
storm became cyclone, and levelled
everything in its path. About forty
buildings were destroyed and fifteen
persons were killed, while from thirty
to forty were wounded. Among the
buildings blown down are several
churches-one Il fine stone building
the public schools, the grain elevator,
the railroad depot and Wetmore Insti-
tute.
The storm was extremely violent at
and near DelphOs, Ottawa county,
Kan, and fifteen dead bodies have
been brought in from two square miles
of territory. One man from Beloit
was taken up in his wagon and thrown
to the ground again and instantly
! killed. A woman and child were
| thrown against wire fence and killed.
| Five persons were killed in one house
near Delphos.
Another tornado on the same even
ing struck the earth four miles from
Lees Summit, Mo-, and tore a furrow
through the country about hundred
yards wide and ten miles long, levell-
ing everythingin its track, and killing
and wounding several people. The di-
rection of the storm was southwest
| and northeast
The house of Mr.. Harris, near Blue
Springs, Mo-, was demolished. Mr..
Harris, his wife and children were
carried up into the air out of sight,
and dropped at different places and in
different directions from the site of the
house they occupied, the distances
varying from one hundred to two hun
dred yards. Mrs. Harris and one
child were killed outright. Mr.. Harris
died several hours aiterward. One OF
the other children was found i'm a pool
of water fifty yards from the house
with straw and grass wrapped SC
tightly around his head and shoulders
that it could only be removed with the
greatest difficulty. The child was
slightly injured, his escape being at
tributed to the mysterious bandagt
around him. Al this point the storm
cloud burst, but came together again
almost instantly with terrific crash
bounded from the earth and came
down again near the dwelling Of Mr.
Gore, which it passed through, leaving
the side walls only standing. The
funnel shaped cloud then rose high il
the air and disappeared in the north
west.
The heaviest rain ever know in tina
region accompanied the tornado.
