tending to make q short halt there and
then return home. At Whitehall a col
lision occurred and Mrs Myrick sustained
serious injuries, having her.. shoulder dis
located and fractured. A telegram from

of the accident.

A Maine Zephyr.

BANGOR, Me-, Aug. 15.---The most de-
tructives tornado ever experienced in
this vicinity occurred tonight. The wind
was terrific and rain fell in sheets, con-
verting the streets into roaring streams.
The whole was accompanied by lnces-
SAINT thunder and lightning. The de-
struction of property is very great and
will swell to large proportions. Build
lngs were blown down, houses unrOofed,
chimneys demolished and signs and avn
ings carried away. The spirc of the
Universalist church was blown TO the
ground and the roof of the
county court house was taken off.
The interior of the Bangor house
was injured by the chimney falling
through the roof. The European &
North American railway car sheds were
blown down and cars demolished. Sew
eral houses were badly damaged. Hun
dreds Of chimneys went down, and the
business streets of the city are almost i'm
passable. A large number of trees lie
across the streets. Lightning struck a
stable adjoining Maxfeld's wool factory
and set it on fire, calling out the fire de-
partment. st. JOINTS church was struck,
but not much damaged. A lot of build
ings in Veazie were destroyed by fire dur
ing the storm. A vast amount of dam
age was done to the crops. The storm
covered only a small territory. The loss
is between $50, 900 and 100000.

i'll Arizona. a Washington reporter,
in announcing the probable assent
by Congress to the Presidents re-
quest, has to work in a fling at the

future complications of the
"question" that the nation
is engaged in settling IN this
Territory. The insinuation is entirely
gratuitous and unworthy an honor
able journalist; it especially exposes
the ignorance OF the correspondent.
Whatever may be said of the Nor
mons, they cannot be charged with
being fools, as theWashington news
gatherer would imply in his sugges-
ton that it might be necessary to
use the army to enforce the laws. If
the courts will not protect the Nor

there is no danger of the
people trying to maintain those
rights by the display of force and
the exercise of violence.

ONE OF the silIiest, but meanest
attacks made upon Hon. George O.
Cannon. is that referred to in the
Geographic dispatches of Saturday
morning, the New York Tribune
basing its charge that Mr.. Cannon
had melted to murder upon the aft.
davits Of one AdOlphe Rain. If the
last named were as well known in
New York as in Salt Lake, the fact
that he had made an affidavit would
be conclusive evidence to the editor
of the Tribune that he had been
guilty of perjury, and the opposite
to his allegations would be accepted
as the truth. Nothing that Rain
could say would in the least injure
the reputation of Mr.. Cannon with
his acquaintance, and the infamous
story told Of the latter will hardly
be accepted by his bitterest enemies

The beat OF summer is moderate,
