WIND STORM IN INDIAN
TERRITORY.
MANY HOUSES WRECKED.

Expeoted TO Grow.

SoUrH McALEsTER, l. T., March 2s.
AT least fourteen people were killed
and much loss of property resulted
from a cyclone that struck Lehigh and
Coal Gate Saturday night and moved
a path about half mile wide almost
TO this city.
The families of four farmers were
destroyed. Several bodies are missing,
and the death list may not be less
than a score.
The dead as far as known are!
James Seafoam, wife and three chill
dren.
Alex Pendergrass and family.
Samuel Stinson, wife and fve chill
dren
Passengers from Lehigh state that
in the country southeast of this city
the cyclone left in its path many
killed and manned. 1t came upon the
country suddenly and people had no
time to prepare for it. Few were able
TO reach their cyclone cellars in time
TO escape the destroyer.
The homes Of several farmers were
picked up and carried away by the
terrible force OF the wind In these
houses were people in a number OF
instances, and the houses were liter.
ally blown TO pieces
The most extensive washout that
ever occurred on the Missouri, Kansas
e. Texas railroad was the result of q
cloudburst near Summit Over 2, 600
feet of track were submerged and rem
dered useless There is also a wash
out on the C. o. q G., twenty-one
miles west All trains from Oklahoma
were seven hours late.
Wind storms and rain are reported
from various parts of the territory.
Wires are down at many points
When full accounts of the devastation
wrought by the wind are received the
death list will doubtless be consider
ably increased.

That Was What Pastry Cases Wore
Once Called.
At very early period the Orlentals
were familiar with a kind of pastry
a mixture OF -four, oil and honey, and
for centuries pastry making went no
further, even among the nations in the
south of Europe, says the Gentleman's
Magazine. But in the beginning Of the
middle ages a change began to take
place in the method Of mixing the in
gradients and some other substances
were brought into use Butter, eggs
and salt found their way into pastry
making and the result was a manifest
Improvement. Paste next came to be
used as an inclosure for meat, seasoned
with spices, etc. Afterward 1t went a
step further, the next use being for the
inclosuEe OF creams, fruit, preserves.
etc, and later still it began to take the
many fanciful shapes in which II has
since been commonly found. In the
early stages OF English cookery the
pastry cases were called collins or "cof-
fynes" and were made IN various sizes
from "gret coffynes with lowe liddes"
for the "tartes Of dlesche" TO the
"smalle coffynes" for "tartolettes" OF
"fische or 1lesche," mixed with "stuf
of boylled fgges ground and good pow
dure and spises." Petruchio. In THE
Tanning Of the Shrew," It may here be
noted, calls little cap "a custard cof-
fln." These collins correspond with
the "vol-au-vent" Of today The art
OF making a very light pastry, such as
pun paste, Is probably a modern one,
but pastry Of several kinds was an
ciently used. For meat pastry butter
was dissolved In boiling water and
worked into a soft mass with fine -four.
As IL cooled It would set in any form
desired. Another paste was OF flaky
kind and made very much as at pres
ent. while still another kind, called
pam pun, was made Of fine -four and
the yolk OF an egg. no water at all
being used This was for the finer
kinds OF confectionery.
