with a fragile reed l traced upon thc sum.
Agnes. love thee;' but the mad waves came
rushing by and l.lotted out the fair impress
sion. Oh cruel waves! Oh, treaeherous
sands. I'll trust thee no more; out VIII
pluck the ialleSt pine from Norway frozen
shore, | will dip its top IN NesiuNlus,AuG Oh
the very heavens will write Agnes, love
Ihee;' and i would like TO see any common
ordinary White Bear wave wash that out.
Thus did ;one of the merry party OF
the Tam O'ShanterS" tOuchlngly re-
lieve himself as be stood upon the clltt
at the foot of Clark avenue and mus
ingly gazed out upon the troubled
bosom of White Bear. Had that poet
ically critical swain but stood upon the
same spot Friday morning and looked
out npon that same lake, Seethlng,
whriling, rushing mass, tossed ana
hurled by the Wind, and dashing ana
breaking against the shore in ceaseleSS
roar. his SarcasticalIy sighting opinion
of White Bear waves would have been
greatly changed. 1t blew great guns
from the southeast, the wind rushing
across the lake. lifting and pushing the
water before 1t until the waves rolled
higher than for many years; at least
Jim Elmer says many years, and he
ought to know. From Ramaley'S to the
bridge, from White Bear beach TO the
DellWOod club house, and all along the
west side of the island the force OF the
wind and the waves was felt the most.
Along the island shore Theodore kocn'S
bath house was the first 10 Succumb, the
others following suit shortly after. AT
Ieaman'S all the SailbOatS broke away
and were washed ashore, and continued
the performance, notwithstanding the
number of cables attached TO them. The
large Naptha boat went high and dry
ashore. Further down the shore the Mar
guerite plunged madly for time, and,
after tearing her dock TO pieces, subsidized.
Markoe'S boats did well, but dragged
their anchors considerably, and one OF
them, the Nautilus, filled and sank. At
hamaley'S docks all was confusion, as
there are about tel boats anchored out,
besides the number moored at the
docks. They all seemed to break away
1T once. Sadie WAS washed completely
up on the boat slide; WapSie and Kitten
went high and dry; the line-of-Oattle-
ship, Olena. dragged in between the
docks and PndeavOred to go up into the
pavilion. presumably for some of Ra-
maley's lemonade. while the usually so
patient Undine wildly rubbed her port
side against the dock and wore off five
thickneSseS of paint. The greatest force
OF the gale was felt at DellwOOd. Lucius
Ordway went out for his morning
GLOBE and found Follow Me browsing
around the doorstep, while the fiery
NuShka was endeavOring to follow. The
DellwOod broke away from her moorlng
and drove before the storm, dragging
that beautiful new luminous buoy with
her, clear to white Bear beach. where
she struck in such Il position that the
surf dashed completely over her, soon
carrying away the mast. During all
this her master was tearing madly down
the beach, waving his arms and shout
Ing whoa in most beSeeching voice.
When the storm was in its incipiency
the large tree in Mr.. Dement'S yard
Went down with crash, and not long
after the high windmill at MahtOmedi
did the same. The wind demon, not
content with playing havoc with Lea
mans boats, needs must seek out his
home and blow down tree which stood
just in the right position to crush the
corner of his house in its fall.
