WAS A NOBLE MAN.

Rev. Edward 2. Baker, whose
shocking death by accident in
California has been recorded in
this paper, was for several years
pastor Of the Foreign Church
Congregational at Hilo. The
following passage in the San
Francisco Chronicles report of his
death is about as accurate as news
papers in that part usually get
anything about the Hawaiian ISL
ands:
The deceased was native of
Massachusetts. Although he had
spent several years in Honolulu
in search of health, occasionally
officiating in one Of the churches,
he did not seem to regain it.
Mr.. Baker was scarcely known
by sight in Honolulu, excepting
to leading members of his denom-
ination. The writer travelled with
him on the steamer Kinau as far
as Maui one time, else would not
have ever known him to see him.
In an enviable reputation, how
ever, Mr.. Baker was known to all
our intelligent people. He was
an idol of the inhabitants of Hilo
for his Observation-Disclosures
and manly qualities. Rev.
E. p. Bakers name was synony-
nous with "mountain climber"
as he was the champion in that
line of athletics in these islands.
Once the BULLETIN, when under
the ownership and editorship of
its lamented fouader, Walter Hill,
perpetrated a grand April FOOLS
Day joke by publishing minute
account of the discovery of race
Of pigmies living in cave of one
of the triplet mountains of Ha-
wall, employing name assonant
with that of Mr.. Bakers as the
name of the heroic discoverer
On the recent expedition to the
eruption in Mokuaweoweo, the
summit crater of Mauna Loa,
the conductor pointed out the
place whore Mr.. Baker left his
horses while he made the rest of
the ascent on foot. 1t has been
stated that Mr.. Baker lost his life
by riding over precipice on a
bicycle. The full particulars of
his death in the Chronicle show
that criminal official negligence
was the primary cause of the
worlds losing the benefit OF this
noble mans services in the causes
of religion and science. This is
revealed in the following para
graph

1t was long ago demonstrated
that coffee of the best quality
could be raised on this island.

capitalists who have formed the

are settling down to business
again, we desire to call the
attention of the residents of
the Hawaiian Islands to a few
matters of interest.
We have lately been APP
pointed sole agents for BAR
BER'S REFRlGERATlNG MA
CHIMES.
This machine can readily be
arranged in creamerieS, ETC., so
as to cool cream, milk and
water to any desired tempera-
ture down to and below freez-
ing, as also to hold a we'll
insulated butter-room at any
temperature desired above 80
degrees, only requiring the
running of the machine from
four to six hours per day,
which is the usual time that
the other machinery in a
creamery is operated.
In addition to creameries,
these machines are also adapted
for use in produce houses,
meat markets, hotels, club
houses, etc. Their perfect work
has been demonstrated fully
in the past two years in a large
number of creamerieS in differ
ent portions of the East, and
more particularly in the EIgin,
ILL.,, district, as we'll as in butter
houses in Chicago, New Or
leans, and elsewhere.
The cost of operation is no
minall, as the charge of ammo
MIA furnished with the plant
should last a year or more
without recharging, and will
cost only about $500
The DE LAVAL CREAM |
SEPARATORS are now in al |
most universal creamery or
factory use the world over,
and in the past few years the
Dairy or Baby sizes of these
have almost as COM
pletely revolutionized general
as had the larger
machines previously the cream
cry industry.
The De Laval Company now
to the public a smaller
type of its latest and most
improved Alpha machines
intended tor household and
small dairy use, and designed
to confer in its new field the
same inestimable benefits of
centrifugal separation of cream
from milk as have the larger
machines in their respective
spheres.
No more fitting and des-
,riptive term could well be
applied to this little machine
han the name which has been
SC, aptly given 1.-THE "Hum-
ning-Bird." 1t is very small,
,ery compact, extremely SIM
'le, easily understood and
jared for, safe and durable. 1t
possesses every advantage to

Alpha" machines, is so ex-
remedy easy of operation by
eason of its new method Of
attaining motion as to be
designed mainly for use by
women and children, and is
.bsolutely thorough in its

and already the number of
orders for this kind of work,
convinces us that there has
been pressing need for such
work in this city.
Without making the slightest

so certain that we can please

number of houses and barns. Immense
trees were torn up by the roots and in
some instances carried quarter of a
mile. One large orchard was cleaned
of every tree and the grain fields have
the appearance of having been plowed.
A huge barn belonging to o. Eggerton
was lifted from its foundations and car
ried 20 feet, while the roof of his house
was taken into an adjoining field.
Lewis Burr had only their bedroom
remaining of their house when the
storm had passed.
The terrible monster then seemed to
turn directly east and made its
presence fel3 next in the city of Mt
Clemens. Here a clean path of ruin
was cut through the city. 1t dealt
with dwelling houses as though they
were mere toys, lifting them from their
foundations, toppling them over and in
some cases utterly demolishing them.
The cyclone struck at the lower end of
Gratiot avenue near the toll bridge and
tore along the line of Front street for
distance of four blocks, making a
path two blocks wide. 1t is thickly
settled residence portion of the town
and the families were at home, most o.
them having just finished supper.
Many had miraculous escapes from
The Yale expositor., 1896-06-05

A short distance east of Oxford the
cyclone disappeared into the air and
evidently divided into two portions
one going north and the other to the
southeast. The northern end did not
strike the ground again until it reached
Forrest, Genesee county, Is miles
northeast of Flint, where Chas. Lam
pheres two barns, one on each side of
the house were swept away leaving
the house unhurt. The houses of
Henry Bristol, William Hill and Joseph
Hitchcock, were totally destroyed.
The inmates escaped, without serious
injury. 1t then passed east near the
country line, unroofng the barn of
John Dimes, destroying orchards and
everything in its way. Fostoria, Tus-
cola county, barely escaped and 20 farm
buildings two miles south were dam
aged The losses there are: Mr.. Bah
cock, fine brick residence and barn; j.
Riley, barn; Henry johnson, new frame
house blown into pieces; e. Maxfield,
house damaged; e. Pugstery, barn;
John Wheatstone, barn; A. Maxfield,
house, barn and other buildings, blown
to pieces; M. Simons, barn; w. Define,
house and barn completely destroyed;
G. Define, barn and shed unroofed. A
fine brick school house was blown down.

wreck Destitution reigns supreme in
the wake of the terrible cyclone. For
distance of three miles, there is a
track $50 feet wide, which looks as if a
mammoth reaper had swept it with "a
gigantic scythe.
While no one was killed outright at
Mt. Clemens there were several badly
injured. Outside of the Pohl family, as
related above, Mrs. VIM. Ormsby had
an arm broken, Ross Carter was cut on
the head; Mrs. Carter was terribly in
jured about the chest and head and
may not live, while their baby was
badly hurt; Mrs. John Harder was
badly cut and injured internally; Ed
Mosher was blown so feet and some
what bruised and Chas. Webster's fam
lily were buried under debris but not
badly hurt.

damage done to residences along Rath-
bone avenue between Dulac's mill and
the city limits. Charboneau Bros. had
three ice-houses stripped. The ware
houses at Dulac's mill were thrown into
the river, and the farm buildings and
houses of John Cowan and his neighbor,
Norton, were demolished. A two-story
building near Aid. Fred Scott's house
was moved off its foundation, and an
icehouse not far away was stripped,
leaving nothing but the uncovered ice.
The first place the storm struck near
Mt. Clemens, was the place known rs
the Teats farm, now owned and oc-
cupied by John Irwin. On the 200
acres Of this place there is hardly a
fence standing, while at least 500 val
liable apple trees are ruined. Eight
buildings were destroyed, the only one
left standing being the family resi-
dence, the roof of which was blown
half a mile over the fields, while every
thing in the upper story is complete

death, but II persons were seriously
injured and some of them will die.
The worst work was wrought upon the
cottage of Mrs. Anna Pohl and her
three boys. The cottage was picked
up into the air and dashed into splin-
ters against the ground moment
later. The mother was found under
four feet of ruins. Henry, aged IA, lay
across her chest with his hip broken
and unconscious from internal injuries
a great beam lay across her body, pin
ming her to the ground, and her back
was broken. Adolph, aged 12 years,
had his right leg broken and was COW
cred with bruises. Willie, aged 10, had
his right leg broken, his shoulder dis
located and internal injuries. The
house of Samuel Trew was picked up
in like fashion and the foundation was
blown from under it when the house
dropped back, right side up and in fair
condition. The other severe losses
were the homes of August Henkel
Chas. Webster, Frank Dudley, Ed
Singer; Ross Carter, Frank Cutchc,
Adolph Ecker, VIM. Katz, Chas. Hen
lSel, Mrs. Connolly, Capt Louis Char
boneau, Ferdinand Hickman, Edward

II is seldomi miindeed that any portion
of Michigan is visited by such tor
nado as swept over the counties of Oak
land, Macomb and Lapeer. 1t was a
storm of Kansas cyclone fury. 1t
struck about half mile north of the
village of Ortonville and travelled
swiftly eastward. It's path was about
a mile wide, and everything had to
give way. When the black cloud had
swept on, it lifted veil from its awful
work and disclosed scattered masses OF
splintered timber where human habi-
tations had stood. According to the
reports of the weather bureau the tor
nado must have covered an area of un-
usual width, for the whole eastern
peninsula was visited in various parts.

The black breath of death made its
first appearance in northern Oakland
county, 10 miles northwest of Oxford,
Just north of 0rtonville where it struck
the homes of w. j. Mitchell and killed
the whole family, consisting of him
self, wife and two children, and then
went ON to the home of Abraham
Quick, where he, his wife and
two children were slain. Pass
ing Just outside of Ortonville the
storm swept westward to Oalwood Il
hamlet five miles north of Oxford, with
a population of 200, and not house
is left standing. The two churches lie
fiat on the earth. The losses along
Tat portion of the path of destruction
were as follows: Mrs. Benjamin Glib
bings, house and three barns wrecked;
Mrs Caldwin, house and two barns;
Harvey Francis, house and three barns;
farm adjoining, owned by Alfred Jones,
house and one barn; Edwin Fifield,
house and barn, Fifeld, his wife, 1S-
year-old daughter and 23-year-old son
were all killed; Sam1 Copeland, house
destroyed; Andrew Tayloris three-story
house was carried 40 feet from it's
stone foundation and hoisted clear
around, three barns also leveled; Mel

where Mrs. Kitchen and Abram Kitchen
were killed; Schiller, house and barn;
Benj. Weatherby, house and two barns;
John 'Trast, house and barn; the
homes of John and Joseph Parrott, 40
rods apart, both destroyed and one

Henry Lafiamboy, house badly twisted;
then came the homestead of Henry

killed; Oscar Mitchell, house and barn;
Elmer johnson, house, his wife killed.
One mile east of lakewood the village
of Thomas suffered almost as severely.

blown away. North Oxford got one
wing of the swirling demon and Meta
mora also came in for a brushing, but
the damage there was not nearly as
serious. Near Thomas DIR. Suffers
fine residence was wrecked; the Cope
man home nearby also went; Chas.
Kidder and VIM. Coat were left home
less with their families, and little
westward l.. S. Taylor's home was left
n pile of ruins At Frank Laidlaw' s
home, in North Oxford, the most un-
precedented event occurred. Laidlaw
and the hired man were i'm the barn,
his wife and babe and hired girl in
the house. The storm picked the house
and barn off the foundations and blew
them away but no one was hurt, ex-
cep. the babe, one month old, which
was killed i'm it's mothers arms. At
Andrew Johnson's the house and barn
were picked up and blown away. Pet
tibone, hired man, was killed, a silver
of wood being thrust into his throat.

Near Fairgrove, Clifford and Reese,
Tuscola county, houses, barns, orchards
and fences in the course of the storm
were leveled to the ground. One life
was lost, Joseph Nhlburg. His build
ings were uninjured by the storm, but
he was instantly killed by being struck
with flying b ard while looking out
of his front window. The following
were injured: August IlaslIe, Julius
IIaslle, Fred Hasl1e, Edward Haslle,
Mrs. Julia Haslle, Mrs. Urbane.
A cyclone passed through the south
ern part of Midland county, its path
being through Homer and Mt. Haley
townships. 1t was accompanied by
lightning and hail and blew down sew
eral houses, but no one was hurt.
3The cyclone struck the earth two
miles southwest of Dryden, Lapcer
county, demolishing many buildings,
tearing up trees and killing much
stock. The dead are: Mrs. Thompson
Bennett, X. Smiley and little son, Mrs.
Stewart. The injured are: Thomas
Bennett, three ribs broken, recovery
doubtful Mrs. Joseph Smiley, Sr.,
probably fatal internal injuries; Mrs.
Jos. Smiley, Jr.; John Peters and
others, slight injuries. Buildings be-
longing to John Peters, Lew Hamblin,
Chas. Schroeder, Jos. Smiley and Ed
Strong were all destroyed. Richard
Smith lost houses and barns by light
ming and =. ind.
The soOI ,ern end of Sanilac county
was not ne ,>-ected and the little village
of Amadore suffered the greatest loss,
nearly every building in the place
being more or Jess injured. The town
hall, Presbyterian church and the
cheese factory were demolished, as
were the homes of Mrs. James Nc
Master and Martin Cline and the barns
of John Conroy, Chester Rice, r. Hum
BILE, John Kipp, f. L. Wathers and Jo-
seph Galbraith. From Amadore the
storm continued east until it struck
Lake Huron. Through all the storm
and wreck there were no lives lost and
very little live stock was killed.
At Mungers, six miles from Bay City,
Jos. Malbury. aged 33, formerly of De-
troit, was killed.
A small hamlet of perhaps dozen
dwellings and other buildings, known
as Whigville, northeast of Oxford, was
completely swept ont of existence, and

Among other places which received
some slight attention was the townsh d,
of West Rose, Oakland county, where
