 ST. PAUL, Minn., July 13.-A few min utes before 5 o'clock this afternoon the clouds, which had been threatening storm, began to collect over the region of Lake Me Carron, two or three miles north of this city, soon taking on the rotary motion and the terrible appearance of @ cyclone. Hundreds of citizens watched the clouds as they swept together and followed their course to the northwest, in which direction many friends had gone to spend the day at some of the many little lakes that are scattered over this country. Anxiety for the absent drew mary down town during the evening to learn the first possible particulars of what was thought to be undoubtedly disastrous storm. And SO the reports indicated. A young man drove in from Lake Coleman soon afterwards with the information that at least two persons had been killed and over one hundred injured at that point. He had been out there with young lady friend, and having gone after the buggy to drive home on his return to where she had been standing, he found his companion seriously injured by the storm which had so suddenly come upon them. Other reports followed quick, each being little worse than what had preceded it. Tc the north and east of the city there are great number of little lakes, which are sought by the multitude every Sunday, and on the shores of these lakes many campers pass the hot months of the summer. Lake Coleman is one of these, and tho damage there WAS very heavy. J. H. Schurme, @ prominent business man of St. Paul, and riously injured.
