SOUTH OF ST. PAUL
st. Paul. June "A Pioneer Press dispatch
from Watertown, S. D., says: small DARK
funnel-shaped cloud suddenly appeared in the
south this afternoon about 3 80 and soon de-
veloped into hurricane. 1t appeared close 10
the ground and in its whirling motion people
saw that it was the dreaded tornado, and the roar
which accompanied it was like huge fire snap
ping and cracking in its onward course. For
tunately it struck the city on the extreme east
ern limit, where the buildings were scattered
and the whole city tonight is thankful that IL
came no closer.
Six barns were demolished. The path of the
storm was only about 90 feet wide, and it was
remarked as strange that not a single house within
the city limits was in its way. Horses were
lifted from the ground, hurled into the air, and
sent sprawng TO the earth. Wagons were taken
up bodily and hurled TO atoms Five miles north
east of here two houses and three barns were
literally carried away. The debris from the storm
as it left this city spread along its line for nearly
a mile.
"At Waverly. twelve miles northeast. two coal
sheds were ruined and the smokestack OF the
roller mills fattened to the ground. o. F. Chand'
Ter and his son were in one of the barns wheh
the storm struck it and they were pinned under the
boards until assistance came but were only slight
ly injured Three people were killed at Hazel,
sixteen miles southwest Of here. and the storm IS
said to have been very severe in that region.
No other fatalities have been vet heard of.
A heavy rain and hail followed the storm, but
did no damage. This is Watertown's first cyclone
experience, AMI many people were badly fright
ened The damage to property In this county
