FEARFUL STORM IN ONTARIO.

A Cyclone Demolishes Buildings and
Sweeps Even Clothing Away-wide-
spread Ruin.
BELLEvILLE, Ont, April ga re-
port has reached here of destructive
cyclone which visited the northern
townships of Hastings county, leav-
.ng widespread ruin in its wake.
The force of the storm was
most severely felt in the town
ships of Carlow, Mayo and Mount
Eagle. Thomas Lebo, of Mount Eagle,
and James Robinson had all their build
ings blown down, killing part of their
stock. Louis Lavec's barn was car
ried away and torn to pieces and
Alfred Armstrong; house was de-
molished. Parts of the building were
carried over mile and deposited in
the woods. Even their clothing, which
was packed in trunks, was carried
across into the woods. Pieces of the
trunks were subsequently seen, but
nothing more. Their bedclothes were
torn to pieces and carried away. They
lost everything they owned. Arm
strong was away from home.
His wife and children We're in
the house when the door blew open,
and all ran to shut it, which act
saved their lives. Just as they We're
trying to close the door the whole
building was carried away. The chill.
iren got off with only a few scratches.
The cyclone passed through Carlow
miles wide and swept everything be-
fore it. No further particulars have
been learned, although greater damage
is supposed to have been done.

ST. LOUIS, April 25.-Edward A. Drex-

morning, it is presumed by thieves. The
discovery of the crime was made
by John Hill, a colored bootblack,
employed by Drexeler. He arrived at
the store as usual Sunday morning, but
to his surprise found that the front door
was locked. He looked through the
window and saw his employer lying
upon the floor in a pool of blood.
BY DreXeler's side lay an iron bar
covered with blood. Hill and an
other negro, Charles Wisdom, We're
arrested Immediately. Wisdom, like
Hill, BACKED boots in DreX-
