VERY MANY NARROW ESCAPES
But No Fatalities Reported in the Storm a,
Newcastle, Pa.

Newcastle, Pa, April 20.-The heav-
lest windstorm that has visited this city
within the recollection Of the oldest in
habitant occurred about $40 this even
ing. The wind came up suddenly from
the west and was accompanied by
sheets of rain and lightning. For half
an hour the rain fell in torrents and
the wind blew with a hurricanes force.
The central school building, one of
the largest in the city, was completely
unroofed. The same was the case with
the West End school and St. Mary's
parochial school, while the Catholic
church suffered similar fate The res
idence Of VI. T. Hanna was blown down
and the handsome residence OF John
Marshall had its roof blown off. Nearly
every window in the west side of the
Shenango glass works, of Knox. Fultze
& Co, were blown out together with
shash. The new residence Of Joseph
Anderson was also wrecked. The large
stable Of the Fountain inn was raised
about five feet and moved from its
foundation. It is believed that other
and worse damage has been done in the
country districts in the wake Of the
storm. Throughout the city fences
were blown down and trees uprooted.
There were many narrow escapes.

TORRENT TEARS UP TRACK
Fearful Devastation Wrought by a Recen
Flood in Nebraska.


Omaha, April 20-A special to the Bee
from Moorefield, Neb., says:
Saturday nights flood in this section
Of the state was of much greater pro-
portions than the darkness permitted
TO be seen. The scene Of the greatest
damage is on the Burlington and Mis-
souri, River four miles west of Farnam.
The damage to the railroad property
for exceeds any idea entertained before
the full extent of the effects of the
storm were realized.
Where the greatest damage occurred
the track follows deep cut, starting
at the end of Plum Creek canon. The
torrent Of water came through the can
yon with frightful velocity. When it
reached the point where the canyon in
tersectS with the railroad track, the
current was diverted through the deep
cut. The track, ties and road bed were
swept down the stream like so much
driftwood. At the west end Of the cut
the topography of the country changes
abruptly, and instead of a deep cut
there is a fill seventy-five feet high and
200 feet long. The embankment was
washed completely away. The steel
rails were bent and twisted by the vio-
lence of the flood as if they were so
many pieces OIL ledu, ana Dig drainage
tiles weighing LOO pounds were torn out
of the ground in which they were orig
inally buried seven ty-five feet deep, and
washed down the canyon for a distance
of 400 yards.
All traffic is suspended Wrecking
crews are It work on both ends of the
washout. About half mile Of the road
bed has been washed away, but the
wrecking crews will construct a tempo
rary track for immediate use. All west
bound trains are stopped at Curtis, and
those east bound stop at Eustis. Dam
age TO property of farmers in the valley
cannot be determined. No lives were
lost as far as known.
