AN AWFUL TORNADO.
Several Persons Killed and Many
Injured.
Fiuy.Fivc Houses Demolished IN
Clinton, Ky, and Many In ST.
Louis, Mo.

A tornado on the night OF Jan. 18th
struck tho east side OF the city of Gin
ton, Kentucky, demolishing tifty-thrcc
houses, killing eleven people and
wounding litty-three, The killed so
far as ascertained are: j, A. Rhodes
and two children; Mrs VIM. Bone;
Barnett Bone; Walter Nuuce; John W.
Gaddie and infant; infant of +. {.
Hodges; one person not identified,
The wounded are Judge +, c. Hodges,
his wife and two children; G. &. Gwinn
aud two relatives, names unknown;
Rev. \, W. Little, his wife and two
children; ID. {. Stubblc ana several
members OF his family, not seriously
hurt Mrs. Foster aud two children;
Mrs. j. A, Rhodes and one child, the
latter will die; AL Emerson and two
children; a. +. Justice aud one child;

Robt. johnson, ST., dangerously hurt;
Robt. johnson, DR., viii die; w. II.
Nunce, his wife and chlld, and others
whose names cannot bo learned nj this
time. Assistance was sent from the
surrounding country ut once, The
storm also visited WickliiIe, KY
causing considerable damage TO prop
erty but no loss Of lilo.
ST. Louis dispatches give the details
OF the destruction IN that city on the
about half past > o'clock. That por-
ton of the city that lies in the path OF
the storm is marked by demolished
buildings, overthrowu walls and TN
rooted houses. The cyclone passed
entirely across the city from north to
south. II moved with remarkable CO.
lerity and entire destruction was
wrought in n few moments The re-
suit is that so far as could be estimated
full 200 houses are rooilcss, quite n
number have been demolished and four
persons arc reported killed, in addition
10 a number more or less seriously in.
iurcd by falling walls and dying debris.
It is almost impossible to place any
thing like reasonably certain csti.
malo on the financial loss, but II Is safe
TO say that IL will reach to half u nil
lion dollars. In addition TO dozens of
dwellings and stores in the southern,
central aud northern sections Of the
city, more or less wrecked aud many
big buildings were damaged. The list
of victims killed is M follows. Mrs.
Maggie Connors, aged 40; Bernard Me
Connell, aged &C; Joseph Weaver, aged
0; Willie Marks, aged 6. The injured
are Terese Weaver, aged q, both legs
broken and will die: Mrs. Charles Mil.

HORSES BURNED.
Kentucky stables and Valuable
Horses Burned.

The stables belonging to Macy Bros.
at Versailles, Ky, burned on the 18th,
destroying thirty-tive out of thirty
eight horses. Among those burned
was the horse Bell Boy, that was
recently sold at auction by Jefferson &
Seaman to j. Clarke for s5l.000 1t
is said that Clarke had refused 800,
900 for this horse.
Among the list OF valuable horses
lost are: Bell Boy, 3-years-old, record
Of 2:l9i, the property of Clarke &
Hopper, bought for SOL 900, 800, 1000
refused; Ardent value $4,000. a 2
year.old, by Red Wilkes, dam by
Young Prince, value S., 200; 2-year-
old by Robert McGregor dam by
Hydsicks Hambletonian, $4,000; For
ward, $4,000; Cookcy. So, 500; You and
|, 2-year-old twin fillies, $4,000; Fam
ME Fern, great brood mare, $4,000;
Lena ID, So, 600; three Messenger Chief
colts, 2-year-olds, $4,000; Messenger
Chief tilly, $1,000: Buckner. 81. 900.
The other horses burned were valued
at s., 900 and less. Gus Macy can
not account for the fire except on the
theory of incendiarism, The wind
sent flying sparks all over town. The
efficiency of the fire department saved
all Versailles.
A special from Versailles states that
the fire was discovered about o'clock
in the morning. The fire is supposed
to have been incendiary, and when
discovered almost the entire structure
was in flames. The stables cover
almost an entire square, consisting OF
proper sheds for training, and ada
cent stalls for horses. 1t is said IT, at
forty horses were destroyed, but the
ownership cannot now be ascertained.
Many of them were in training and
some of the valuable ones are sup
posed to have persisted. Three small
cottages near the stables and general
store belonging to Landsburg were
burned. The entire loss is estimated
at $4,000
