MARsHFEID, Wis, Aug. 30.-The
little town of Vesper was destroyed by

A dispatch from Marengo, in

Farmers from adjoining towns report
fires in every direction, doing much
damage and requiring constant
watch 10 save their homes from de-

OF damage done thus far 70 timber,

There is no sign of rain, and as the

situation begins % look desperate.
IsnPEMING, Mich, Aug. 30.-While
smoke is very dense throughout the
entire upper peninsula fires, though
umero us, are confined principally to
old slashings; few homesteaders have
been burned out, and heavy damage
done TO poles. ties and posts in the

A WIND OF DEATH.


Russian Towns LeNclcd ana 1hcir Resi-
dents Slain or Drowned
ST PETERSBURG, Aug. 2S.-A most
disastrous cyclone swept across the Sea
OF Azov Saturday The wind was frst
felt at NogaisS. NogaislS is peopled
mostly by fishermen, who were out on
the water. When the hurricane had
swept out 10 the north a terrible scene
was presented The village was RACED,
overturned. as though great plow
had been pushed through IT, Lying
everywhere were women and children,
dead or in the last agonies. The shall
low waters of the Sea OF Azov were
dashed 20 such height that IL was
plain every fishing boat must nave
been sunk.
The cyclone swept ON TO the north
east after wreclSing Nogaisk. Its path
seems 90 have been unusually wide,
for az Marinopol it devastated the
country 20 point II miles inland, and
had its outer cdpe far upon the sea.
Marinopol was practically blotted out
OF existence. Not three houses in a
hundred are left standing
II is estimated that over 200 persons
persisted in this town alone. North of
OF Mnrinopol the storm seems TO have
made n sudden turn % the eastward
over Dolga points, its left edge in-
flicting slight damage 90 the town Of
Bcrdanisk. Houses there were un-
rooted and dozen persons were killed
by falling timbers.
Once at sea the storm made its fun
fury felt. OF the steamers that touch
at the port of Berdiansk, not one had
come in AT the hour OF the late report.
Grave fears are expressed that every
craft in the sea has gone 90 the
bottom and that every passenger
IS drowned When The wind swept
over the northern end OF Azov
IL took new course, going
southcrly along the coast Of the
land OF the Black CossaclSs. Ia turn
Fisk and Achueb were rayaged,
each town being almost totally de-
stroycd. Tclegraphic communication
with this district IS suspended, and il
Is impossible tolearn the extent OF the
destruction, but az least 900 persons
must have died on the two shores. The
storm as nearly as can be learned,
seemed to suddenly lose It's force near
Temrink. and passed of with compar.
alive quiet southerly over the Black sea.

Those who rushed 10 the gangway
when the fire was discovered escaped.
Those who remained 10 fight the fire
were first attracted by thin clouds of
smoke issuing from the bottom OF

could be cxtinguished without much
damage or loss OF life resulting from
an explosion they set fearlessly To
work 10 locate and eXtinguish the in
cipient blaze. Instantly after the ex-
plosion occurred the flames burst out
from the bottom OF the level and adj
vanced rapidly upon the manned and
imprisoned miners. Timbers, coal
dumps and large chunks of coal were
hurled in all directions by the force of
the explosion.
At o'clock the last Of the thirty
seven bodies was recovered and then
the people began 70 quiet down. Many
