FIERCE CYCLONES IN MINNESOTA.

WINoNA, Mimi, Sept. pa cy-
clone from the southwest struck Spring
Valley, Mimi, at 10 O'Clock last night
demollshing the Winona & Southwest
ern depot, a water tank, oil tank,
the cold storage house of the Scheles
Brewing Company and dozen houses.
Three persons were killed and many
others injuted, some of whom will die.
The dead are:
Mr.. and Mrs. N. Dodge and child of
Frank Mashek and Mrs. Frank Mashek, Q.
G. King and Mrs. Louise Ross are fatally
injured. Eighteen others were more or less
bruised.
The cyclone afterwards struck HON.
erville, four miles south of here, de-
strOying three barns, the new town
hall, a general store and two houses.
The storm then passed the river, strk-
ing Marshland on the Wisconsin side,
destroying several houses, but iniuring
no one as far as reported. Three
houses and two barns were destroyed.
In Gilmore valley at West City,
houses and barns are reported unroofed.
1t is believed the bluffs south of the
city protected Winona from damage.
AT Dodge Centre, Mimi, a large
warehouse was blown down and an
other partly so. The eastern part of
Leroy was swept. The Milwaukee de-
pot was destroyed, together with sew
eral houses, ami the following were
killed:

Personally think that the words "for pea

association should be eliminated and that more
opportunity should be given country players TO
play OH grounds. This could be done by
reducing the number of cup matches materially.
One other suggestion has been sent by a cor
