WIND, RAIN AND HAIL AT ONCE
A Terrible Storm Experienced at oxford,
n. c., Yesterday Afternoon.


N. C., Yesterday Afternoon.
The New York Times special from Raleigh.
n. c., says:
AT o'clock this "wednesday afternoon the
citizens of Oxford. a town about forty miles
from this city on the Oxford and ClarsviIle
railroad. observed heavy black cloud ap-
preaching from the southwest The weather
has been wet and blustery. The cloud became
blacker and denser, until just before o'clock
a roar was heard and all at once wind, hail and
rain dashed over the town.
The wind was terrific. Houses we're blown
down, trees were torn up by the roots and
the hallstones were much larger than usual
ana covered the ground 10 a depth of four
inches and broke almost all the window panes
In the town. The rain fell in sheets and tor
rents both and the darkness was complete
The terrible rush of wind did not last lon
ger than five minutes, but the rain and hail
lasted for a much longer period.
1t was soon ascertained that great damage to
property had been done. and people who even
turned out to the streets found themselves in
total darkness, surrounded by the debris Of
houses, trees. fences, telegraph poles and tin
from the housetops. About O'Clock the rain
and hail ceased.
The storm had swept from southwest to north
east across the town. leaving a mark about 200
yards wide. In this space the frame houses
had suffered most. number were blown
down and the tlmbers blown away. The brick
houses were unroofed
number of people nre known to have been
injured. one colored man fatally. The damage
to property is estimated at S200.000. The
track of the storm was from Oxford to Hen
derson on the Raleigh and CASTOR railroad.
and from there north down the railroad
to Greystone. The distance from Oxford 10
Henderson is twelve miles, and the swath cut
was from a quarter to half mile wide. 1t
presents the appearance Of having been burned
and swept The trees have been torn up and
the limbs blown from the trunks, and the path
way looks like road that had been cleared of
stumps and every thing else.
EXPERIENCE OF HENDERSON.
The town of Henderson had the same expert
ence as Oxford. Ten people are known to have
been injured, four seriously Greystone is a
small railroad station. All the houses there
were blown down. There is u granite quarry
there, and a squad of conyicts have been
worked. Three-quarters of the log houses were
RACED to the ground. A number of conyicts
were hurt.
1t is learned that there was n second blow,
but 1t knocked down the poles. and no further
news can be had tonight. There must have
been another current of wind because at sun
down in this city the clouds had disappeared
and the heavens appeared to be filed with
leaves, and 1t was remarked that there had been
cyclone somewhere not very far distant. The
wind blew gale here but did no damage.

young colored man named Joseph Howard,
who lives in East Washington. given a
hearing in the Police Court today on charge
of assaulting Policeman Edward Anderson of
the ninth precinct. The affair happened some
davs ago. but, like in many cases of assaults on
policemen. the defendant was the only one who
could show marks of violence. The policeman
had dubbed him and he said he was under the
doctors care for two days. Howard thought
he had done nothing to warrant the officer in
administering such severe punishment. On
the other hand the officer claimed that Howard
had assaulted him and it was necessary for him
to resort to his club.
A disinterested witness called said he sew the
assault on the officer. and Judge Miller gave
Howard sixty days in Jail.
