NEW RICHMOND HORROR.

! Additional Particulars Do Not Make
Situation Amy Less TERRIBLE.
New Richmond, Wis.,, June i3.-Inde-
scribabiy sad are the scenes of desolation
wrought by last nights tornado, that has
practically swept out of existence the
prosperous little city OF New Richmond.
Out Of 500 houses and. store buildings
comprising the town. fully sGo were
wrecked by ths storm or destroyed by lire.
Almost every family has one or more
members among the dead, injured or
missing, and little groups are seen every
where searching by the light of lanterns
or torch for loved ones who may be buried
in the piles OF debris on every hand. With
frantic energy the search has been con-
Quoted all day and up TO mine o'clock 81
bodies have been found, although the
numoer Of dead certainly will reach one
hundred or more. These have. for the
most part been taken to the Ca tholic and
Congregational churches. which, al
though in the very edge of the storms
path. miraculously escaped its fury.
In these temporary morgues. the sights
are such as to touch the hardest hearts as
the grief STRICKEN living recognize in
bodies, horribly manglsd aud often dis
rneimbered, the remains Of missing dear
ones. The wounded find temporar y
asylums In the uninjured dwellings on
either side of the path OF devastation,
where doctors and nurses from nearby
cities and towns are doing heroic work
without leep or rest. As many as pos
sibie of the injured. whose chances for re-
covery are considered good, are being sent
to the hospitals at ST. Paul and Minne-
apolis where they win have better care.
The business portion of the city covered
space of four squares each way and was
built solidly OF brick and stone. This
entire space was swept clear, foundation
walls and in some places masses of debris
alone marking where the business places
formerly stood.
In the Congregational church fifteen
bodies were laid out on the seats and
through the aisles a throng surged In
search Of their dead.
In John Glidden's family only ono
escaped injury. The family was In the
living rooms over the store on Main street
when the storm struck. Mrs. John GIid-
den was killed. Mr. Gliddsn. John Glid-
den, Jr., Mary. aged -, Charles aged 16,
and Ella, aged 10 were all seriously hurt.
Mary was carried block from the horse
and alighted at the edge OF the mill pond.
Many bodies are thought to be in this
pond.
The average resident of New Richmond
estimates the loss of life most seriously.
They claim that hundreds are missing
who were buried in the ruins and there
incin Grated. One such is @. A. Nelson,
who owned the Columbia restaurant, To-
ated ON Main street. His estimate Of
loss Is 400 dead. He says that when the
rain storm. which preceded the cyclone,
broke, not less than twenty persons
rushed into his place for shelter. He is
positive that not more than four besides
himself escaped.

THE ODD FELLOWS.
Their Bali and Banquet surpasscs All Past
 Efforts, in Elegance.

Alaska Lodge No. 1, Independent Order of Odd Fellows, of this city has, through a number of committees, been arranging to give grand ball and sup per, and last Monday night was the time set for the occurrence ot the hap py event. oo
 The Lodge is composed of about fifty members, and has been in flourish inc condition ever since it's organiZa- ton. It's membership takes in the best men on Douglas Island, and 1t IS also backed by the ladies auxiliary organi- zation called the Rebekahs.
 Four hundred invitations were is- sued. A like number of programs were printed. and time aud expense were not considered in preparing for what everybody expected would be a pleas ant time, but which in fact eclipsed everything that bas heretofore been given on Douglas Island ill the ball and banquet line.
 AT THE HALL.
 The grand march took place about half-past nine o'clock. The hall was crowded. The music was furnished by Profs. Miller, Fulmer and Fremont. It was of the best. The calling by sev- eral parties was better than common, and on went the dance, that was enjoy ed by everybody. At Il o'clock part of the merry-makers went to Odd Eel lows Hall where most elegant supper was served. Did we say elegant? We'll, that don't do justice to the menu. There was everything on the table that one could wish for, from fresh Eastern oysters to ice cream. There never has been such tremendous spread set be. fore a hungry lot of people on Douglas Island before. Everybody was talking about that supper.
 Dancing was continued until after , o'clock in the morning, and even then some left with regrets.
 Juneau sent fine delegation com posed of Capt. Crockett, of the Vol colt, MT. and Mrs. Agnew, Mr. and Mrs. Raymond, the Misses Jordison, Bell, Parrish, and Miller, Mrs. Lynch, and Messrs. West, Casey, and Wikie. This grand evenings entertainment was free to those invited. The expense of the ball and banquet was entirely borne by Lodge Mo- 1, and one thing will always be said of the members of that lodge, and that is that they are royal entertainers.
 The committees that had the ball and banquet in charge were as follows: lnvitations-C. c. Milne, ThOs. Cash en, J. H. Duckworth and R. G. Troll.
 Floor-Hugh McRae, A. Johnson, Is adore Deman, w. Fl. McBlaine, Jerry Cashen, and J. Donehey.
 Reception-H. Crofts, G. w. Stephen son, M. Tatom, c. H. Stevens, J. G. Me Donald, and D. L. Rood.
 Refreshment-C. A. Week, A. Hun ter, H. Wilson, and J. J. Penglase.

Funeral of Antonio Grasso.

The last sad Iites were paid to the re- mains of Antonio Grasso, last Monday afternoon, who was injured by the eX- plosion of blast at the Sheep Creek mines, which resulted in his death at the hospital at Juneau last week.
 Grasso was an Italian and had only been at work at Sheep Creek some ten days. He was thirty-two years old and married, his wife, however, still being back iu Italy. He was we'll liked by his associates and some eighty persons followed his remains to the place of burial.
 It appears to be the custom among the Italians to provide music at their funerals and the Miller Cornet Band of this city followed the remains from the hospital to the cemetery and played the ''Dead March" and other suitable music.
 The religious part of the service was conducted by the Catholic priest.
