MANGLED AND DEAD.

A feather bed yonder twisted like rope, aud
touching its edge a students lamp, with even
the chimney intact. Down near the river
stands the large Cole MILL with cyclonic bite
taken from its western end. To the south of
it is train of eight loaded
cars turned and twisted as if of straw, while
in the race at the northern side are two more
cars blown bodily from the track and into the
water The owner of the mill was lifted fifty
feet vertically and hurled against bank and
killed Not a bone in his body was left I'M
broken. Rochester, as every one knows,
was beautiful city, and as much on &C
count of its trees as anything A
core of years will not restore its pristine
loveliness in this direction. Some of the
streets in the best part of the city are i'm
passable, and looking up Or down them one
sees nothing but tangled mass of
trunks and foliage iammed across the
roadway. Scarcely d residence-Mr. Van
Dusen's is about the only one-that has not
suffered more or less: and in many cases
heavy chimneys were crashed through the
roofs and garrets into the floors below. But

suits of storm which, in the worst of its
path, absolutely

The relief committee is doing all possible, and
residents are subscribing all they can,
but help is needed, and speedily. Roch-
ester gave literally to relieve those
who suffered in the July cyclone, and now
feels justified in calling for aid to meet the
horrors and alleviate the sufferings consequent
on the worst calamity Minnesota has ever
known, confined in the same space. Superin-
tendent Sanborn, of the Winona St.
Peter, is here, and is doing all pos
sible to repair damages. Passengers

The citizens of Rochester are wan CT cheek and

passed last evening as evil quarter of an hour
as ever fell to the experience of man, and TO
this succeeded a night of horror, snch as made
men used to the terrors of a stricken field

in the evening and lasted from twelve to fifteen
minutes Not until after 6 o'clock were the
residents the least alarmed which is
the strangest, when it is remembered that
month ago cyclonic fury vented itself
but few miles from here. By 7:1O the south
west quarter had assumed that sickly greenish
tint which serves as drop curtain for such
dire work. In a few moments the green
changed to copper, then to bronze, with
Whitish edges and lateral lines of flying scud
athwart it in every direction. Next was noted
that dSeaded and dreadful inverted cone, with
height seemingly unreasonable and murki-
ness appalling. With the speed of cannon

down as favorable to General Kcfers candidacy on the
ground that IL Is not worth while to have contest
