A Little Spirit Gone.

Little Chicago Cleveland Javanicus is
dead. While the storm was raging wildly
about the Fair Grounds Wednesday after
noon the girl baby OF the Javanese village
in Midway Plaisance, at Chicago, gasped
once or twice, clinched its little fists and
then rolled upon its face a corpse. The
mother was not aware that her child was
dead until she tenderly removed the cover
Ing to look at the face she had caressed but
few moments before. Her shrieks brought
score of Javanese women from their
games on the floor above. Andoet, the
father, made haste 10 reach the bedside.
and for hours the whole COM
munity was wrapped in sorrow. Chi
cago Cleveland Javanicus was frail
little creature at birth. When she came
into this world on Tuesday the doctor
shook his head and said that she might
live II the weather was not too severe. But
the wretched rain came and with IL was
wind which sang requiem about the win
dows OF the little room where the child lay
gasping and choking.

Awful Destruction by Cyclone in Ok

Awful Destruction by IA Cyclone in okla
hOma.
The country west and sou til west Of Moore,
o. T.. was swept by a terrible cyclone at
go o'clock Tuesday evening. Great dam
age was done; just how much will not be
known until the telegraph communication
destroyed by the storm Is renewed. The
news at hand makes it certain that ten
people were killed as many more injured.
and untold property destroyed. Among
the dead are: ]. 0'Connors and his whole
family, consisting of five persons; Mr.
Hanks, H. G. Clements, and child of Henry
Bateman. Tom Weaver had his arm broken
and was otherwise injured, and is in
serious condition. Three of Mr..
Hanks family we're seriously and
perhaps fatally injured. Their house
was blown to atoms and the family
only extricated after desperate eff
forts had been put forth Philip Dryers
house was moved twenty feet. His invalid
wife and babe, who were. in the second
story at the time the storm came up, were
carried away with the building but mirac-
ulously escaped serious injury. Frank
Brow ms house was blown away just as he
and the family escaped. Most OF the peo-
pie escaped to their cyclone caves having
had warning of the impending danger.
Further casualties cannot be ascertained,
but it seems certain that there we're many
more. Though the cyclone lasted but a
minute or so the wreck left in its wake was
awful. path half a mile in width and
eight miles long was LAID in waste. Houses,
barns and everything in its way went
down.
Later-Further reports of the cyclone
multiply the horrors. The, latest estimate
rs that thirty-s six people were killed and
twenty five injured. One hundred and
twenty five persons were left In destitute
circumstances, and thirty eight houses
were swept away. 1t is feared that the
death roll will reach fifty.
