rill, of the Atlanta Telephone Co.,
reached Atlanta late Tuesday night
from brunswick, and stated that the
city of Brunswick is badly damaged,
and that three big vessels were sunk
in the Brunswick harbor. The latter
were blown away from their mornings.
The waves of the sea and the wind de
stroyed much of Brunswick's shipping
interests.
Mr.. Merrill says hat the famous old
gunboat, the Monitor, was blown away
from her pier, and that she was float
ing helplessly in the harbor, in danger
of going to the bottom.
T~elegraphic communication was re-
stored with Brunswick at / a. M, and
authentic news of the hurricane is be-
ing received.
Four persons were killed outright
in Brunswick, as follows:
William Daniels.
Abel Davis.
John jefferson and babe.
A careful estimate places the dam
age at $500, OCO. Many persons were
dangerously injured.
One lady was killed at Everett, a
small station a few miles from Bruns-
wick.
The railroad tracks were INSTRUCTED
by trees and poles and the only train
which came through from Brunswick
was preceded by a wrecking train and
crew for d distance of 20 miles.

The Reason NewsdpaIers Use Rubber
Bands on Magazines for sale.
The man who gets up carly in the
morning so he can have 4 look at his
neighbours paper before the rightful
owner has a chance to take it from his
doorstep does not stand very high in
the estimation OF the n~ewsdealer. This
is because he spoils trade.
There is another man, however, who
is even more cordially detested by the
vender of periodicals. He IS the fellow
who never buys anything, but has the
habit of dipping intothe weekly papers
and magazines. The keeper of a news
stand makes a tempting display of his
stock, for he knows that a strong pie
ture or even a pretty cover often brings
him a stray customer, bur he expects
the mere looker-on to be content with
this much. and he is likely to frown
uDon the man who resorts TO all kinds
of schemes in order to get a peep at the
inside pages.
The stands in the ferry houses and
railway stations suffer the most from
these penurious cranks, fer there is
nothing else to attract their attention
while they are waiting for a boat or a
train. They run through the leaves q!

So great has this nuisance become

of placing a rubber band around tine

Friends In a Strange City.

That much ridiculed instinct which.
leads a crowd to collect without a clear
idea of the reason for gathering. worked
an unusual good at Tacoma. Wash, the
ether day. Somebody saw, early in the
morning, a grief-stricken man walking
toward the river with Il small coffin.
With him were his wife and a stranger
who bore the coffin box. Without know
!rg just why, a man fell in behind them,
another and another followed until
there was a goodly company. At the
river side strangers put the coffin into
the box and placed it aboard the boat.
A flower boy who had just landed and
1oined the crowd laid a wreath on the
casket. All was done silently, and the
father. as he embarked, turned and in
tears returned thanks for having found
friends IN a city of strangers.-N. Y.

FIVE OUTLAWS

ALBUQUERQUE, y. NJ, Oct. 2-Atlan-

been advised hat the west-bound pas
senger train No. ,, due here at s:fi p.
m, has been held up by five outlaws
near Rio Puerco bridge.
United States Marshal LoOmis, who
was a passenger aboard, is reported to
have shot and killed Cole Young, one
of the robbers, directly after the train
was stopped. Young's companions
thereupon began shooting indiscrimi-
nately, and. it is said, several passen-
gers were either killed or wounded.
After terrifying the passengers and
train hands into submission, the rob-
bers cut the express car and engine
from the train and ran them up the
track a few hundred yards. An ex-
plosion followed, and it is supposed
that the express car safe vas blown
open.

Tt,sre has never been such a storm

Tbsre has never been such a storm
here since 1894.
Nearly every telegraph wire out Of
Savannah is still Frustrated. Storm
news is coming to tile Morning News
from many points in Georgia and Flor
ida by mail.
The storm appears to have struck
land at Tampa and swept northward
to Savannah, thence jumping on to
the north. All the correspondents
agree that the velocity of the wind
was unusually high, even for a cy-
clone, but its duration at each place was
short-about an hour. Had the storm
been long continued. everything in it's
path would have been levelled to the
ground, and the loss of life must have
been heavy. The property loss is es-
timated at between $3.50, 900 and $780,
BOO. The loss of life is four, SO far as
known. The victims are all colored.

Flood in the Juniata Valley.

HUNTINGDON, Pa, Oct. ]. The
Juniata valley is experiencing a de.
structive flood, scarcely less in extent
than the great flood of 1889, During
the last "a hours the rainfall has been
unprecedented and the climax was
reached at ? a. IN. by a cloudburst just
west of this city. This volume
of water swept through the western
end of the town, washing out streets,
flooding houses, carrying away out
buildings and drowning several head
of cattle. Many families were obliged
to flee from their homes. Traffic on
the middle division of the P~ennsylva-
MIA railroad has been wholly sus-
pended, all through eastern trains
going around by way of Lockhaven,
on the Northern Central. The Penn.
sylvania's tracks, five miles east of
here, have been washed out, and a
slide on Jacks mountain, ten miles
east, has covered the tracks for
a distance of 200 yards. Tele-
graphic communication with the
east is also suspended. In Bed

branch, two houses were carried away

The West Indian hurricane, which

rection, left death and destruction in
its path. Owing to the prostration of

as those reports are, they show that
over twenty towns and villages have
