A Scene Which Absolutely Beggars

ST. PAUL, Minn., July 14.-Late advices
from Lake Gervaise indicate that the loss of
life at that place may reach 80. The man
who has charge of the boat house says he
had rented out not less than 10 boats before
the storm burst. There were not less than
two people in any of these boats, and some
Of them contained three or four each. The
keeper says that since the cyclone passed
over the lake nothing has been heard from
any of these boats or their occupants.
The scene at Lake Gervaise absolutely
beggars description. There must be from 25
to 40 wounded. some of them seriously. They

were dug from under buildings and taken to

the dead were collected in the hotel of John

Many citizens, however, went to their aid.
Half dozen ambulances and twice that
number of physicians went from st. Paul at
o'clock last night to administer to the suf-
ferers.
Several of the dead bodies were brought to
this city, and the others will remain at Cole
mans until claimed by friends. The citi-
zens are doing everything possible in proper
ly caring for the dead and alleviating the
sutferings Of the wounded. At the Coleman
House every room, upstairs and down, Is
filled with cots upon each of which a suf-
ferer is laid, and doctors have been there in
attendance, setting and amputating limbs
and dressing W ounds. The black-r0bed
Sisters Of Mercy are flying about, and seem
to be everywhere administering comfort and
assistance in the work Of relieving pain and
distress. A corps of assistants were kept
busy making bandages, tearing up great
rolls of linen, and tearing 1t into strips of the
requisite dimensions, which the doctors put
to Immediate use. In one of the upper
rooms there were seven wounded lying on
cots, most Of them insensible or under the
influence Of opiates. The wounded were
also in the attic, in fact there was not room
to accommodate all of them, and a number
werk carried to private houses in this neigh
borhood. 1t Is believed that the number of
wounded may exceed forty A good days
word will be necessary to get anything like
a correct list Of the dead and wounded.

There were places, too, that were not
patched, and many of the ladies on the car

smiles. Altogether he was sight for gods

60, with shock of matted gray hair He
was only half awake when he reached the

chase and vertook the old fellow before he

Then began pretty tug-of-war. The
owner OF the scarlet Smalls stood with his
limbs apart. his arms tightly folded around
the yellow cur, that with its head resting
against its masters hairy breast gave vent to
a series of piteous yelps and cries. The
classic gentleman who is said to have defed

An Electric Bell Used to Give Warming
Against the Police.
Sergeant Spillane and his squad have
pretty effectually suppressed gambling in
Chinatown, but they have had suspicious
that several games were in active operations
in Fish alley, which runs between Kearny
and Dupont streets, from Jackson to wash
ington.
Yesterday morning while the squad was
passing through the alley bell was heard
ringing The sound was quite familiar, as
they had heard it many times before. Spill
lane had long since become convinced that
it was an alarm signal 10 give warning to the
gamblers of the approach of the police.
They made search while the bell was
yet ringing, and found it in front OF
butcher-shop. Tracing the wire that was
attached to it, they were led to the roof Oh
the house at the northwest corner of the
alley and Washington street, and there they
found the button that touched the bell OF.
Another wire was found to lead TO a door
way on Dupont street, near jackson.
By this arrangement the police could not
enter either end of the alley without the
alarm being sounded. The bell and wires
were seized and taken away, and last even
ing the entire squad raided the alley, but no
games were found. The gamblers were
aware that the apparatus had been removed,
and had wisely refrained from gaming until
other means of giving signals are adopted.

were fighting. Rochelle and Huntington
were in the ring, the former bleeding pro-
fusely from the seventh round until the fight
was stopped. The captain considered the
contest prlze-fght as much as if it had
been in ring on the green.
Police Officer Dolan corroborated the cap
tain's testimony. lie said the fight was to
