these visitations, that they will cut swa;h

Among the freaks of this cyclone were
the waiting Of suit of clothes from tailor
shop to Brainerd, sixty-two miles away, and
the carrying of II headstone from a grave
yard to st. Cloud across the Mississippi, and
landing it three miles away. In the heart Of
Sank Rapids safe weighing 800 pounds
was carried 400 feet
The iron bridge at this point, which
weighed hundreds OF tons, was carried clear

VIEW IN ST. CLOUD AFTER THE CYCLONE.
Human negligence is in a great measure re-
sponsible for the terrible loss of life in the
recent Minnesota cyclone. They have had
many previous experiences of a similar
nature in that country which should have
warned them to build cyclone pits, and not
trust to cellars that are covered only by the
floor of the house above so that when the
latter is swept away the uncovered cellar
becomes a pitlall for flying debris, which piles
in upon the unfortunate inmates who have
sought it as place of safety
Among the cyclones which have recently
occurred in Minnesota, previous to the last
one, the most destructive was that which
visited Rochester early il the evening of
Aug. -, 1888 The entire northern part of
the city was laid in ruins, twenty six people
killed outright and eighty Others badly in
jurcd. The storm was terrific, carrying
everything before it. After leaving Rochester
it swept onward to the west through Dodge
county, carrying death and destruction in its
path. The loss in property from the effects
of the storm was about S3o0,001
In the recent cyclone at Sank Rapids and
st Cloud the number of killed and injured
were as follows:
St Cloud-killed, p; injured, So
Sank Rapids Killed, IS; injured, 100
Rices Station and adjacent country
Killed, Is; injured. IS.
Toial-killcd "A; injured, 2l3.
Besides many who have died since from in
iurics The property loss is estimated at
$500, 900
This cyclone swooped down on these towns
about 4 p. m, and wrestled with them about
twelve minutes, only leaving the terrible
amount of death and destruction recorded
above.
