Lightning never strikes twice in the
same place is an old saying but it
doesn't apply to windstorms or if it
does Princeton proves the exception.
The first tangle of Minnesota ozone
came Friday evening between 8 and
$3.50 o'clock and did considerable dam
age to property. The St. Anthony &
Dakota elevator lost it's roof and was
otherwise damaged. The building
was wrenched and moved off it's
foundation and one part struck the
rails of the side track so hard that they
were pushed out of place, while corn
crib was picked up and thrown through
the roof of the power house. The
storm blew in the plate glass window
on the south side of Jesmer's DEPART
ment store and then out two of the
windows in his front, damaging the
stock to quite an extent. It is es-
timated that the glass alone represents
a loss Of $500. Trees and windmills
were piled about with great abandon
and several barns and outbuildings
were blown down or unroofed. On the
north side the storm struck the house
occupied by Mrs. VIM. Brown and five
children and the building was quickly
demolished. Mrs. Brown was injured
but not seriously while the children,
who were all quite young, fortunately
escaped without a hurt. The windows
in the second story of the Head build
ing were also blown in and the family
were obliged to seek other quarters
for the night. About four miles north
of town the storm struck Henry
Prahfs house and lifted it from. it's
foundation. When it settled to the
ground it had been carried into his
hog yard and was wrecked, one end
being smashed in. Mr.. Prahl was the
only one of the occupants injured, hav-
ing received a severe cut in the left
thigh. Just what did this he does not
know as it was all over in the twink
ling of an eye. The Hamilton house
on the north side shows that the wind
was not so straight as blow as it was
generally considered. This house was
turned around on it's foundation by the
twisting current and badly racked.
There are other evidences, too, of it's
cyclonic nature, such as the stripping
of shingles from roofs, twisting trees,
damaging buildings on the leeward
side, etc. It is thought that there was
a twister in the air but it was little
too high to do the work which cyclones
usually do. There was, however, no
doubt as to the nature of Saturdays
storm.
The Princeton union. [volume] (Princeton, Minn.) 1876-1976, 1897-07-08
SplinterS.

Sunday was spent by many of our
citizens in looking over the cyclones
path. Many relics were picked up.
Clothing from Steadman's house was
carried to Mystrom's place, three
miles away and picked up uninjured.
Several hundred feet of the tele-
graph line was torn down and Prince
ton was cut off from the cities for
several hours.
A. B. Damon lost bee tree by the
storm and can find no trace of it. He
says if the finder doesn't get honey
enough out Of it to pay, he will bring
it back himself if notified.
There are those who profess to know
that the cyclone formed near st.
Cloud, but as there are no traces of
the storm half a mile beyond the
Quigley farm it is evident that their
knowledge is not we'll grounded.
There will be several cyclone cellars
constructed now and the next unruly
visitor will find our citizens prepared.
Had the storm Saturday been as late
as that of the previous evening score
of dead would have been on the list at
least. It was most fortunate that it
occurred in broad daylight.
