| shown in keeping the record of the dead and
! wounded, that no accurate list is obtainahlc.
Over $4,000 were raised on Change to-day
for the sufferers, and all sorts Of supplies will
| be sent. The storm, il appears, extended
over the whole State, with great destruction
of property and loss of life within fifty miles
Of Jefferson City. The wind played queer
pranks. 1t is reported that there was great
damage and loss OF life at Ryssellyllie, about
33 miles southwest of Jefferson City, although
nothing ,ielnite has been learned. Lambert.
in Texas county, was badly torn up and
nearly half destroyed. Prof. Tice has gone
to Marshfield, and will make a scientific
examination Of all the circumstances. Later
kilograms from Marshtied announce that
there is less excitement prevailing, the dead
are being buried and the carcasses of dead
animals are being hauled away. The best
information is that 81 collins have been used,
and there will probably be four or five more
deaths Tonight Lena Evans, Cora Cris5-
man, d. D. Slip aud his three children have
died since the streport. The list of wound
ed embraces nearly the whole town, and fifty
or more are serious Y hurt, many of whom

negroes whose names can not be learnedf
The State provides tents, and the towns of
Missouri and Texas send provisions enough
for the present. There are now 81 of the

thought that they should be taken to some
| other place where they can receive better
attention.
