discharge soon gave way to the more
brilliant spark of the zigzag chain,
and under its intermittent illumination
could be watched the tempestuous
movements of the cloud masses, which
were burying from sight the pale green
hues of the fading sunset. A little af-
ter o'clock the storm burst The rain
came in torrents, and a westerly wind
drove it hard upon all who CHANGED to

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 cooling

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 house on
the West side was wrecked and it's
tenants badly hurt, beside a number
of roofs being blown off. A Grand

it is possible that serious damage may
have been done there.

Wind and Lightning Wreck n West
Side House.

With a crash resembling a broadside
from one of Uncle Sans cruisers,
lightning struck a house occupied by
Nirk Kirnise and family on the West
side flats about $50 last evening, and
with the assistance of the ryclonic
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 few feet
distant from other residences. When

ton was still in the tent, when a mo-
ment after the others left, a tree fell
upon it. Mrs. Shelton was found
pinned to the ground by the tree, and

At the Williams house there were
two people injured-servant girls. who

upon this annex, crushing in the roof.
Maggie Mullen was cut about the head
and severely bruised in several places.

caused by the roof falling.

burst during 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 Il
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, a suburb OF
the city, the main street was navi-
gated in row boats all day, and the
damage is $4,000. Grades on the St.

height, were washed out and the track
left suspended in the air.

DULUTH, Mimi, July 3.-Further
damage was done this evening by one
IF the most brilliant electrical storms
ever witnessed. which visited Duluth
at 8 o'clock tonight. People had just
beelIn to recover from the effects Of
the storm of last night and this morn
ing when the rain began TO fail 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
a half hour during which the city was
almost as light as day. The Sky was
a 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 most serious
damage was done to the telephone
system A bolt of lightning struck
the wires over the top of the build
ing, in which is located the central
the distributing board completely
running it. The interior of the room
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
