Last Monday afternoon there occur
red at Long lake, near Eden Valley
the occidental drowning of Macy
Hardy the fifteen-year-old son Of
Thomas Hardy of Eden Valley. Ac-
companied by three Doran brothers
young Hardy was taking swim in the
lake. The party had two boats and
we're about 20 rods from shore in about
Is feet of water. The boy was unable
to swim, and was in the water holding
to one of the boats. In some way he
lost his hold and sank. He was not
noticed until he was sinking g for the
last time, and there seems to be an
idea that he did not rise at all. AS
soon as possible the alarm was given
and the work of attempting to recover
the body was begun. TWAS not until
the next day, about "a hours after the
accident that the body was brought TO
the surface. Attempts were made to
raise the body by exploding dynamite.
but this was Intellectual, and the task
was finally accomplished by means OF
hooks.
The funeral was held on Wednesday

The growing grain looks splendid
in this locality, although it is more
or less affected with rust. Still we
are dependent because we can not tell
what may turn up to spoil it before
the grain is harvested. A hard wind
storm, hail or cyclone may do it's
damage without a moments warning.
We can not ward it off one night.
Simply stand as lookers-on and take
what is sent. Yes indeed we are de-
pendent on a higher authority for help
and what we need for our daily bread.
Are we as a people worthy of all the
blessings showered upon us? It is a
question that will bear all the ponder
ing and thinking that we are masters
of? We have not, as many other
states and counties, been visited by
these terrible awe-ins piring and dem
olishing cyclones. We have some
thing to be thankful for. Would thai
we could appreciate what we have as
we ought. We are ungrateful beings
to our Almighty Maker and Protector.
Who knows but we may be visited next
by some calamity. Let us wake up!

The Story Of the Storm.
Not One, but Three, With
ing, Furious Tunnels.

St. Louis, May % The history of
the storm movement last night is
quickly told The day was an op
pressivc one in the city There was
no wind and the people suffered from
the heat About 4 O'Clock in the
afternoon, the entire western horizon
was banked with clouds These
were piled one upon the other with
curling edges yellow in tinge;
light wind sprung up, and sudden
darkness came upon the city This
darkness increased until the storm
broke. 1t gave the first alarm
to the thousands of people il, the
streets. at the pleasure parks, i'll the
light craft ON the Mississippi or at
work in the great mercantile establish
ments. There seemed to be three
separate cyclones. They came from
the northwest, the west and the south
west. When they reached the Mis-
sissippi river they had become one
1t was quarter Of when the storm
broke. It's descent was so sudden
that the fleeing women and children
were Caught IN the streets and hurled
to destruction or buried under falling
walls
Before the mass Of clouds in the
west hanging over the villages Of
of Clayton, Fernridge, Eden and
Central, gave vent to thir frlghtful
contents, tunnels shot out from them
Some of these seemed TO be projected
i,o the air, others leaped to the
earth, twisting and turning. Light
nrg played about them and there
was marvellous electrical display.
Then came the outburst Three of the
tunnels approached st Louis with
wind that was travelling at the rate
of SO miles an hour.
So destructabIe was the cyclone
aud 50 irresistible and 80 much great
er in magnitude than any the country
has ever previously known of, that
some of the slaunchest business
blocks went down before it. Iron
beams were torn from their fasten
ings blocks away as if they were
feathers. Roofs, braced and held to
their positions by every device known
to the best builders Of any day, were
torn off as if held only by threads
Telegraph poles fell in long rows, not
coming down one by one, but in
groups OF dozen or more at
time.
The east end of the Eads bridge
one of the most solid aud finest
bridges in the world, was destroyed.
Other great bridges spanning the
Mississippi were all injured. Scores
of persons were drowned, or, after
being killed on the land, blown into
the water.
Steamers were blown high on the
banks and others were turned around.
Still others, after being torn from
their moorings, disappeared and have
not been heard of. AS rule, the
smaller craft were sunk. Not while
within the city limits did the tunnels
rise and fall from the ground, as is
usually the case in cyclones ,ln small
places. There was no rebounding
Consequently, whatever was in the
path OF the wind was either destroy
ed or badly injured. And this de-
struction was done within an hour.
