He Was in the Cyclone.

Jitley Norris who travels with Gallmar
Brothers circus, writes the CENSOR that
he was in the fearful death-dealing,
property destroying cyclone that passed
over New Richmond, on the 18th instant
The circus was just outside the path of
the storm and little injury resulted to
people connected with it or to it's proper
ty. His description is that at 6:15 p. M
the sky began to darken, followed with
slight rain and hail, which lasted only
few minutes. I'VE observed at once
that cyclone was approaching from the
southwest, and we Immediately sought
refuge in the cellar of the hotel, and had
no sooner reached there when a terrific
crash took place. and the entire hotel
was swept from its foundation, COM
plete mass of ruins. After short time
the deamon-like storm started, and
we extricated ourselves from the debris
to find that the once prosperous city was
total wreck. The sight was appalling
and cannot be described with accuracy.
In number of places the flames were
completing the work OF tho destruction.
One could hardly go block without
stepping on some wounded or dead per-
son. | shall never forget the sound of a
cyclone, which was like the roaring Of
three or four freight trains going over a
bridge. No doubt there We're more
people killed on account of the circus
being in town, but had the people been
in the tents they world in all probability
escaped, as they We slightly damaged.
Our sympathy with the Viroqua people
who came in contact with the cyclone
there some years ago was revived But
those who have never been in one can
not realize what they are by reading the
papers and looking at the cuts that are
taken of them Many dead were robbed
by people coming in on relief trains.
They even went to blowing open the
safes thirty minutes after the storm,
and cutting peoples fingers and ears off
for their jewelry. Several of our people
with the show were injured, but nothing
serious; one man died next day from the
effect of his wounds. But / think and
one or two more are very lucky, in the
thickest of the storm and did not get a
scratch. My instrument was destroyed
and lost most of my clothing and per-
sonal effects.
