tobacco was not wanted at any
price.

FadS i'm Medicine.
pan,y,

There are fads in medicine as in
every thing else and "new
thing" frequently sells for a short
time simply because it is new.
But in medicine, as in nothing
else, the people demand and will
be satisfied only with positive,
absolute merit. The fact that
Hoods Sarsaparilla has stood its
ground against all competition,
and its sales have never wavered
but have remained steadily at the
top, demonstrates, beyond any
doubt, the intrinsic virtues of this
medicine. The new things have
come and gone but Hoods Sarsa-
parilla rests upon the solid foun-
dation of absolute merit and it's
power to cure, and its sales con-
tinue to be the largest in the
world.
Don't forget that E. j. Dozier
can furnish you with the finest
and fattest Thanksgiving turkeys
in the country, any size from 10
to 80 pounds at 10 cents per
pound, delivered at your house.

ming Striking Twice.

When the oppressive heat of the To-
passed, the passage of the heat was
followed by a revulsion of feeling on
the part of the atmosphere which re-
suited disastrously to number of peo-
pie and things. There was a pretty
lively rain storm down town for a
half hour or so early yesterday morn
ing, which at White Bear, which
seemed to be the center of more
or less local disturbance, as
sumed conditions and displayed
symptoms bordering on the cyclonic.
Huge trees were torn up, and campers
and cottagers were not only scared,
but in several cases badly hurt
The real breaking of the hot spell,
however, came last evening. All the
afternoon the sky was cIouded more

of dense black clouds, and about
sunset sheet lightning began to
be observed with great fire.

came in tog'fr4ItS, and a westerly wind
drove it hard upon all who CHANGED to
be out. The wind itself was extremely
violent, as may be gathered from the
recital of its destructive work given in
detail below. The storm, however, was
short, and was followed by a cooling
of the atmosphere that was a source
of no little relief to those who had been
so fortunate as to escape the violence
of the blast. The full extent of the
damage done in the few minutes of
tempest however, cannot be told until
morning. 1t is known that a house on
the West side was wrecked and its
tenants badly hurt, beside a number
of roofs being blown off. A Grand
avenue residence was struck by light
ming, and some of the occupants here
were also hurt. Telegraph lines be-
tween the cities were demoraliZed, and
at midnight it was reported that all Of
the wires of the Great Western ere

company had some trouble with its
lines in the Midway district, and the
street railway company had serious
trouble with it's cars, especially with
the big interurbans.
No reports were received from the
suburban lakes up to midnight, but
it is possible that serious damage may
have been done there.

FOUR ARE BADLY HURT.
Wind and Lightning Wreck IL West
Side House.

With a crash resembling a broadside
from one Of Uncle Sans cruisers,
lightning struck a house occupied by
Nirk Kirmse and family on the West
side flats about $50 last evening, and
with the assistance of the cyclOnic
wind which swept through the city
about that time, laid the building in
ruins.
At the time the house was demol-
ished, Mr.. Kirmse, his wife, four chill
dren and Fred Rachel, a boarder
were within, all of them, with the eX-
ception of Mr.. Ratchet, being in the
kitchen. The house was a two-story
and a half affair with basement 1SX42
feet, and in one of the upper rooms
Mr. Ratchet was lying in bed.
The flash of the lightning, closely
followed by the heavy wind, left no
avenue for the inmates to escape, and
several of them sustained pretty
severe injuries How the entire house
hold escaped instant death is indeed a
mystery. The injured are:
Nick Kirmse, tailor, broken arm and rib,
cut in jugular vein.
Laura Kirmse his wife, back badly sprained
and probable internal injuries
Fred Rachel, cigarmaker, cuts about head
and generally bruised.
William Kirmse, son, scalp wounds.
The building is or was situated at
1926 Florida street, and only a few feet
distant from other residences. When
the wind following the crash of light
ming carried the house off it's founGa-

Damage From the Down
pour Will Reach
100000.
CITY'S PARKS
Totally Wrecked by
the Flood.

DULUTH, Mimi, July 3.-Rainfall
that almost amounted to a cloud
burst DUR the last part of Friday
night resulted in flood damage in this
city and vicinity of 100000. The
small streams that course down the
steep hillside became raging torrents,
overlooking the ravines through which
they ran, and in one instance making d
whole street the bed of a flood six feet
deep. Two miles of city pavement
were washed out, and there is not a
block OF paved street that has not
suffered. Twenty city bridges were
washed out and the damages to parks
that form part of the picturesque bou-
levard system is almost the cost of
the improvements. The city's loss is
$4,000. AT Fond du Lac, suburb OF
the city, the main street was navi-
gated in row boats all day, and the
damage is $40, 600. Grades on the St.
Paul & Duluth road, thirty feet III
height, were washed out and the track
left suspended in the air.
All the Iron range roads suffered
heavily, and traffic was suspended
Yesterday. Early in the morning the
St. Louis river began rising foot an
hour. and maintained that rise all day.
Log booms at Cloquet were swept out
and millions of feet of logs were car
ried down stream.
The ST. Paul & Duluth road was ren-
dered impa sable from Sandstone to
Duluth, and all trains were run over
the Eastern Minnesota, the route OF
which lies through Wisconsin. The
Northern Pacific was, perhaps, the
heaviest sufferer from washouts, ana
its traffic was in very bad condition.
No trains have arrived from the west.
Individual losses in the city run up into
thousands of instances. The street
railway company is one of the heaVl-
est. It's power house was flooded and
tracks were washed out in many places,
but by a. m. t. effic was restored al
most all over the system. There are
several reports of loss of life in out
living districts, but none of them can be
confirmed, though a somewhat authen-
ticated report comes of the drowning
of an unknown man at Proctor knott,
where the shops of the Missabe road
are situated.

DULUTH, Mimi, July 3.-Further
damage was done this evening by one
of the most brilliant electrical storms
ever witnessed, which visited Duluth
at s o'clock tonight. People had just
begun to recover from the effects OF
the storm of last night and this morn
ing when the rain began to fall IN
torrents again shortly after o'clock.
This continued for more than an hour
and then the sky cleared up to some
extent, and the general impression
was that the worst was over. At 8
o'clock the lightning began to play
across the heavens and then followed
half hour during which the city was
almost as light as day. The sky was
solid mass of all the kinds of light
ming that have ever been seen or
heard Of Several trees and small
houses in various parts of the city
were struck, but the mostS serious
damage was done to the telephone
system. bolt of lightning struck
the wires over the top of the build
ing, in which is located the central
telephone office, and was carried into
the distributing board, completely
caught fire and it was only with the
greatest difficulty that this was ex-
tinguished. The entire system of tele-
| phones was damaged, and it was sew
eral hours before any kind of COM
munication was established. At the
conclusion of the electrical storm the
rain began to fall again and continued
for an hour, adding many thousand of
dollars to the already huge amount Of
| damage that had been done.
AT midnight word was received from
| Fond du Lac that the people of that
suburb were in great peril for their
! lives, as a result of the last rains. No
definite information could be had, but
it is said that the whole town is I'M
der several feet Of water and many
of the people have been compelled to
leave their homes and seek safety on

bolton Residence Is Struck ana the
Occupants Stunned.


During the height of the storm the
residence of a. L. Bolton, 723 Grand
avenue, was struck by lightning, and
five members of the family severely
stunned. Mr.. Bolton received the most
serious injuries from the shock. as it
is feared that one of his limbs may
be seriously affected. The lightning
struck the chimney Of the house scat
tering the bricks to the ground, and
passed to the inside. The members of
the family were in the parlor on the
ground. floor, and it is thought that
the bolt passed through this room, as
all were thrown down and felt the eff
fects of the current. The lightning
passed out of the building without
any sign of fire.

HAVOC AT WHITE BEAR.
TcrnadO-Lil<e Conditions Prevailed
Yesterday Morning.

A veritable tornado passed over the
vicinity of White Bear at 4:30 yester-
day morning, and considerable dam
age was done. Trees were uprooted and
tents and cottages were damaged bv
the trees falling on them. Had the
women and children not left the houses
as soon as the storm struck, fatalities
must have resulted. During the entire
