the upper part of East New York, known
az the Cypress Hills, at 4:30 o'clock, con-
timed on its way to the lower plains dis
,rict. and from there travelled to Wood
haven. The cloud was first seen going
over Cypress Hills. 1t was funnel-shap-
ed. and hung very low to the ground. At
the upper end was a red spot that ap-
peared more like an incandescent light
than anything else. The cyclone swept
over the cemetery, wrecking handsome
and costly monuments. 1t tore down
trees for about 200 feet and then turned
into Jamaica venue at Crescent street,
and went up Jamaica avenue for about
half a mile. Trees were torn down and
telephone and trolley wires demolished
Right in the middle Of the wreckage six
cars were caught. They belonged to the
Brooklyn and Southern Railroad and
were struck when in front of the Stew
art home. The cars were filled with pas
sengers and there was great excitement.
Half a dozen persons were slightly in
jured. The cyclone wrecked thirty houses
at Woodhaven and q very large school
house there. There were twenty resi-
dents Of Woodhaven hit by the various
objects which were carried through the
air. Chimneys sailed through the air as
though they we're no heavier than feath-
ers.

to the call for mid made by the people of
Cherry Hill. Viewed in the light of day
the ruin appeared more complete. Ev-
erywhere in the path of the storm were
ruins. The tangled heap of timbers by
the railroad track told where the depot
went to pieces. That pile of wreckage
showed where a house had been thrown
down and that one where a barn had been
RACED by the winds. The ~leafless trees
that withstood the strain of the whirl-
wind gave the appearance of midwinter.

INDIANA LAW is DEFEATED.
Legislative AppOrtionment Act Is De.
clared Unconstitutional.

A suit to test the constitutionality Of
the Indiana legislative apportionment act
passed by the last General Assembly was
brought in the Circuit Court at Sullivan
and argument in support of the PROPOSE
tons advanced by plaintiffs were made
by Senator Turpie, ex-Congressman
Brown and ex-Representative Beasley.
1t was claimed that under article I, sec
tons 4 and 5, of the Constitution. the
General Assembly had no power to enact
a law either by repeating valid and exist
ing laws or by passing new laws upon the
subject; that the law was passed at an IN
constitutional period and not at a session
Immediately following an enumeration of
voters, as provided by the Constitution.
1t was also claimed that the new law de-
prived the counties of Vigo. Vermillion
and Sullivan of one joint representative.
A writ of date was asked. restraining the
Auditor, Sheriff and Clerk of Sullivan
County from acting under it. Judge Mof-
felt ruled that the new law was ~unconsti-
tutional and granted the writ. An appeal
was taken to the Supreme Court.
