A TERRIBLE tornado on Sunday las,
did fearful damage to life and property
in various Places. Marshheld, a Missouri
village about twenty eight miles from
Springfield, in that state, was almost en-
tirely demolished by the storm. About
100 were killed and 800 wounded. The
houses were leveled with the ground,
trees torn up by the roots, and havoc was
spread IN every direction. In the vicinity
Of GAINESVILLE, Wis, the storm played gen
eral havoc with dwellings, barns, and out.
buildings. Cattle and horses were kill
ed by the score, fruit trees rendered per.
fectly worthless, and pieces Of growing
timber reduced to kindling wood. For.
tunately there has been no loss of life re-
ported from Wisconsin, although severa]
persons met with serious injury.
The storm also visited Rockford, Cam.
paign, and Clinton, in Illinois and Mi !.
waukee, MaDit0woc, Whitewater, and
Beloit. In the state Of Wisconsin.
