Quick delivered the message from Gen.

down broadway, and as they rounded
the post Office willing hands seized the
mud despatched and weary mcssen-

0. o. Howard, was waiting. He
quickly took the message and conveyed
it by specially chartered tug to Gen.

many congratulations on his good ride
from TarTytown, twenty-five miles,

yet Sunday night it took crack riders
to cover the distance-25 miles-three
hours and twenty-five minutes in spite
OF the most strenuous endeavors. In
some places the riders reported the mud
was knee-deep and had to be plowed
through, while in others it was neces-
sary to dismount.

A HURRICANE.
About the Isle of France, in the In
dian Ocean.
HAIR the Capital City Destroyed, With
Great Loss of Li'e-IIalf of the Crops
OF the Island Ruined-Many
Vessels Were Driven Ashore.

LONDON, May 2O.--Advices received
here from Mauritius state that hurri.
cane, unprecedented in it's violence,
passed over that island on April 20,
causing enormous damage to shipping.
A majority of the vessels at the island
were blown ashore. The western half
OF Port Louis, the capital, was devas-
tated. Houses were blown down, 81
eantic trees were uprcoted, and that
part of the town was about wiped
out of existence. The loss of life
was appalling. A large number
OF persons were caught in the falling
houses and crushed to death, while
Others lost their lives by being struck
by flying debris while they wore at
tempting to seek places Of safety. The
roar of the gale WAS deafening, and the
people rushed to and fro in aimless con.
fusion, with no idea of what they were
doing. Rain fell in torrents. The
thunder crashed with awe-inspiring
volleys, while the flashes of lightning
were binding. Never before in the
history of the island has such a warning
of the elements been known, and never
before was there such widespread fear
among the inhabitants.
The exact number of dead is not
known. Every effort is being made by
the authorities to alleviate the suffering
that has been caused by the disaster.
The governor has issued orders for
military tents to be distributed to shell.
ter the homeless, and fOcd is being
issued to those who have lost everything
by the storm.
Half of the crops of sugar, rice coffee
and pepper have been utterly ruined,
and the loss in this direction is extreme.
ly heavy. r. o..
1t is not in the power of words to de-
scribe the scene. The lowering skies
and falling barometers gave warning OF
the approach of the storm. Taking
warning from previous gales, every.
thing possible was done to minimize
the threatened damage, but when ut
last the gale burst all the precaut lions
proved Of no avail. The shipping
in the harbor sent down their top.
masts, extra anchors were put down,
cables were paid out, and everything
was made snug below and aloft. Had
it been an ordinary hurricane the yes.
sci might have successfully ridden out
the storm. But So fierce was the storm
that cables parted like packthread, and
the vessel was dashed upon the coral
reefs that are so dangerous to naviga-
ton about the island.
