Omaha, June IA special to the
Bee from Blair. Neb.. says: At G:l5
tonight the town of Herman, | miles
north OF here, was practically wiped
off the map. The storm had been
gathering for some hou,s. and people
in Blair and the surrounding country
had noticed two huge funnel-shaped
clouds converging toward that point.
AT Herman, people scurred in all di-
rections and sought the shelter OF the
new cyclone cellars. and instantly the
town was seething mass of debris.

passengers. TUNED themselves into
relief corps and the train into an emer.
gency hospital. The train, unable to
proceed through the wreckage of the
grain elevator blown across the tracks,
returned to Blair with some SO per
sons, this number including one of the
dead and all of the wounded found up
to that time.
The first damage done was about
four miles west of Herman, at the
Hawkins farm Mr.. Hawkins is dead,
and his barns and outbuldings are in
mass of ruins. In the village of
Herman but few buildings are left
standing. The business portion and
the residences are piled up in a heap.
That any escaped is miraculous. The

Fully 100 corpses, twice as many man

shivered planks, scattered heaps Of
household goods, dead horses. through

wrought in the space OF three minutes
upon the town OF New Richmond.
There may have been cyclones which
created greater devastation, some that
have inflicted larger loss Of lie, but it
was only because there was more ma
terial for destruction.

Washington, June 14.--Naval ex.
perts have pronounced the cruisers AL.
bany and New Orleans dangerously
topheavy and liable to "tuin turtle"
at any time. These two wa,ships were
purchased in England by the navy de-
partment just before war was declared
with Spain. The New Orleans was
brought to this country and was in
service, but the Albany is about s per
cent completed in English yards. AS
both were built on faulty lines, there
is no practical remedy. The ships are
too narrow, and there are other defects.

AN ALLY TO POOR CHINA.
Japan Will Give Back the Men-Of- War
Captured Not Long Ago.


San Francisco, June ia Seattle
special says: A well-authenticated
story comes from Japan to the effect
that all of the men-of-war captured
from the Chinese in the late war be-
tween the two countries are to be re-
TUNED to the Chinese government.
This is part OF the policy decided on by
Japan to protect her neighbor from the
inroads of the powers. 1t is said that
the only requirements to be made is
that China invest so many millions in
new war vessels, to be built under
Japanese direction.
The Japanese government sends out
notification that the government naval
yards will no longer do repair work
on foreign or native merchantmen,
EXCEPT IN case of emergency. 1t is
pointed out that private docks have
been constructed sufficient to do the
work. The Hong Kong papers see
trouble ahead if the dowager empress
and Generaissimo Junglu insist upon
holding the proposed review of 200,
900 Chinese braves at Picking. Nari.
Gus legations have advised against the
review, as calculated to endanger
foreign interests.
Most discouraging reports are reach.
ing Japan from the plasue-stricken
districts of Formosa. TIE island is
being depopulated to great extent by
the terrb disease.
