Storm Scourge in tho Middle West

New Richmond, Wisconsin, was al
most wiped from the map, Monday
night, by acyclone. The population
OF the town was 2,2OO, and of that
number 200 were killed and fully L.
oOO wounded, some very seriously,
the herrors of the hurricane being aug
mented by the flames which sprang
into life fran the debris of falling build
ings. Mortality would doubtless have
been much larger, but for the premon-
ltory warning of the storms approach
which caused many people to take
refuge in cellars, wells, caves and other
subterranean retreats. Large trees
were broken short off from the force
OF the blast and brick buildings crum-
bled as egg-shells before its fury. The
dispatches state that not a residence
was left uninjured, and that lumber
yards went up in clouds, and that
huge planks were sliced up into shin
giles when they fell back 10 the ground.
Growing grain was torn out by the
roots or matted down into the soil.
The low lands were flooded by the
rainfall which followed. The popula-
ton OF New Richmond was augment.
ed by crowds OF people from the coun-
try to attend circus performance,
which added largely to the mortality
and personal injury caused by the
storm.
A tornado destroyed the little town
of Herman, in the northern part of
Washington county, Neb., Tuesday.
The entire Eastern portion of the
State was swept by a terrific rain,
wind and electric storm, and the same
night, the streets of Omaha were
flooded. The play OF lightning flashes
during the storm was fearful.
Twenty-Five or thirty people are re-
ported dead, and many wounded. A
large proportion OF the population of
the town are destitute and appeals for
aid are meeting with ready response
from Milwaukee and other cities.
A cyclone struck Clear Lake, Wis,
Tuesday evening. Several homes we're
blown away and number of people
were killed and injured. There is a
great loss of stock and farming imple-
ments reported along the pathway cut
by the destroyer.
Bannon, Wis, was likewise in the
line of the tornado and many build
ings were wrecked. The wind was ac-
companied by cloud-burst, which
drenched the country for miles
around.
Tomah and Viola, Wis, sustained a
loss OF all their highway bridges, from
cloud-burst. Tracks are washed out
and trains have been unable to move.
Cultivated fields are flooded and the
crops destroyed.
A courier from Boardman, Wis, ar
rived at Minneapolis, Monday, with
the report that the whole town had
been wiped from the face of the earth.
Minneapolis and St. Paul barely es.
capped the cyclone, but received a
heavy rainfall-2.34 inches falling be-
tween 5 and I O'Clock. Monday night,
while the wind blew q gale
