In an instant Thursday afternoon, by
the giant play of a cyclone, half hum
dred beings were Gagged in death-trap
at West Superior, Wis. A number Of
buildings were ravaged throughout the
city, but the extraordinary climax of
the storm was enacted in hotel being
constructed at the corner Of Lamorn
and Third streets. Over two score un-
fortunate workingmen were the VIC
Tins. Scarcely five minutes elapsed
from moment when the men,
full of energy, were progress

pearing remains of the poor begrimmed

debris. 1t was with the utmost difR-
Guilty that the real extent of the disas-
ter was ascertained. The two bodies
dragged from the ruins formed the ba-
sis of about the first genuine informa-
ton and dispelled the faint hope that
no life had been sacrificed outright.
Rescuers were hindered and the
misery OF the wounded doubly intensi-
fed by water-soaked garments, the re.
suit OF the down-pour of rain that ac-
companied the devastating atmospheric
eddy. While the dead and wounded
were being conveyed from the hotel
vague reports began coming in Of the
wreck wrought in other localities The
indications are that the damage in the
country districts will be almost un-
precedented in this section. The news
was flashed over the city with start
ling rapidity. Hacks and drays con-
tanning their loads flow to the scene of

falling in torrents and the lightning
was crashing like artillery. The build

scene rushed in and assisted the fire.

Mr.. Parnell arrived Mt his home at Brigh-
ton, from ireland, on Thur, day and complained
ofsufering from a chill. On the Friday fol-
lowing he was unable to leave his bed and his
regular physician was summoned. He seemed
to have considered Mr. Parnell's illness to
have been of n serions nature, for he soon sent
for another physician with whom he held
long consultation over the sickness Of the
Irish leader
His sickness was announced to be an attack
OF acute rheuma ism, and every attention and
care was pa d to the sufferer He was care
fully and uniriugly nursed by his wife, who
hardly lett his bed, idc from the moment her
husbands illness was pronounced to be of a
serious nature.
Mr.. Parneli, ia spite of the care and atten-
ton which he receive did not seem to rally
from the rheumatic attack and grew weaker
and weaker. Several hours before his death
Mr.. Parnell became unconscious. and so re-
mained until he died in intense agony.

attending physicians that he wou recover.

Most Powerful of Explosives.

Experiments with the new explosive,
''fortis, P" were held at Liege, France, the
members of the commission leaving
afterward for Ergy to draw up its re-
port, which is being kept secret. The
trials were made with view to ascertain
the capabilities OF the explosive; first,
when underground; second, when ex.
ploded simultaneously in several places;
and third, when compared with other ex-
plosives.
From all these trials it appears that
'fortis" is striking success, really
startling result having been obtained. 1t
is estimated to have an explosive power
of thirty per cent. greater than any of its
rivals now on the market. 1t is said to
have surpassed the expectation even of
its inventor.
In illustration of Its power it may be
stated that cavity thirteen feet deep
having been drilled into solid rock aud
charged with relatively small quantity
of ''fortis," the explosion detached a
mass over two hundred feet in height,
breaking it into pieces of from fifty to
sixty pounds in weight and projecting
them to distance of $50 yards, where
they came near destroying the house of
the superintendent of the quarry where
