taken from its western end To the south Of
It lie q train Of eight loaded
cars turned and twisted as II 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 a bank and
killed Not q bone in his body was left IN
brcxen. Rochester, as every one knows,
was q beautiful city. and as much on &C
count OF its trees as anything. A
core Of years will not restore its pristine
loneliness in this direction Some Of the
streets in the best part Of the city are i'm
p~assable, and looking up or down them one
sees nothing but a tangled mass Of
trunks and foliage jammed across the
roadway. Scarcely a residence-Mr Van
Dusen's is about the only one-that has not
suffered more or less: and in many cases
heavy ehimneys we're crashed through the
roofs and garrets into the floors below. But
description is utterly unable to portray the re-
suits Of a storm which, in tnS worst Of its
path, absolutely
SWEPT PART OF TIE EARTH AWAY,
leaving nothing Of grass or tree. or shrub.
The relief committee is doing all possible, and
residents are subscribing all they can,
but help is needed, and speedily. Rocb-
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 suGerings consequent
on the worst calamity Minnesota has ever
known, confined in the same space. superin-
iendent s~anbotn, Of the Winona & St
Peter, is here, and is doing all pos
sible to repair damages. Passengers
transferred around the ruins Of the bridge
over the Zumbro and the Horton elevator,
which lies bodily across the track. The telo-
graphic facilities are veiy poor. Not a pole in
or near The town was standing this morning,
and hundreds Of messages are sent in for
transmission to absent friends. In addition to
