stock KILLED.
Especial telegram TO the Dispatchl
RALEIGH, n. c., May 29.-News
has been received here Of a cyclone in
Union county, near Monroe. The cy-
clone came from the west, originating
about twenty miles distant in Steele
creek, Mecklenburg county. That no
lives were lost is owing to the fact
that the people were admOnished
of the approach Of the storm,
which was preceded by roaring
sound. and the cloud itself was seen a
mile OIL, close to the ground, and NOV
ing at a terrific rate, revolving and
moving almost upon the ground.
Branches Of trees, roots, planks, and
shingles were to be seen eddying high
in the air. The cyclone swept over
miles Of country. Its path was zigzag-
wide in some places, in others contract
cd. On the farm Of John Mcdowell
it demolished large barn, injuring
some stock. On the farm of John POr-
ter the storm destroyed house
snd blew away a barn. On the
farm Of Cyrus Wolfe every build
ing was destroyed. The build
ings destroyed included large
barn, Clubhouse, store, and four or
Eve other buildings. The loss in tim
Der and fencing is very heavy, and dis
astrous to landowners. w. l.. Aus
tins houses were utterly demolished.
His store was torn TO pieces and stock
of goods scattered over fields and in
the tree-tops in the woods several hun
dred yards distant. Il. T.. Boyce, who
had taken refuge in one of the wrecked
barns, is painfully hurt. An orchard
on the place containing over a hundred
trees was utterly swept away. The
wind twisted the trees off at the
ground and blew them away. The
ground lookedas if it had been plough
ed. The bark on many Of the trees was
wrenched Off. The breadth OF the
storm appeared TO be about two hun
dred wards.

Spout,


[By telegraph 10 the Dispatch.l
LINCOLN, NEB., May ga Spe-
cial to the State Journal from Indianola
gives the following particulars of the
bursting of a water-spout Tuesday eve
ming; \ party Of seventeen Bohemians
en- route to Dundy creek camped in
Richman canyon, half mile from Re-
publican river and nine miles east Of
this place. At dark heavy rain set
in, and about 10 o'clock water-spout
burst short distance above, flooding
the heretofore dry canyon to the depth
of fifteen feet. This came down the
canyon in waves, each rising a foot or
two higher than its predecessor. The
party were asleep in their wagons.
The one nearest the bed of the stream
was occupied by John Mack, his wife,
and son; the centre one by John Osmer,
his wife, and four children, and two
other children; the third by Joseph
IIavelic, his wife, and three children.
When the flood struck the wagons
IIavelic was the first to arouse. He
jumped up, grasped the wagon-tOngue,
and attempted to put the wagon out OF
the water. The rushing waters over
powered them, however, and eleven
were drowned.
