FREAKS OF CYCLONE.
Sucked a Lake Dry of Water, Ate Up
Claim Shanty and Tapped the
Missouri.

The Washburn Leader gives an &C.
count of the cyclone that passed near
that town recently. 1t says:
On the Missouri a great stream of
water, apparently several hundred
yards in circumference, could be seen
passing up into the clouds which were
moving rapidly north. 1t al not un-
til two or three days later that the full
effect Of this phenomena could be
cleared up. Southeast of Lake Man
dan was a large body of water probably
a mile long, with variable width yer
aging several hundred yards, and sew
eral feet deep. 1t passing owe this
body of water the electrical curiosity
sucked it dry. 1t then struck an
abandoned claim shanty and swallowed
it ADMINISTRATION process being an in
version of the regular order. The
Missouri was bank full and thousands
upon thousands Of ~hogsheads of water
passed up to the overwhelmed clouds
in the half hour the great funnel was
veering across it. Out in the country
near Coal Harbor as afterwards proved
the great clouds rent in twain and
such a deluge was before eX-
perienced there by the oldest inhabi-
tant. The smaller waterspout depos-
tied its overcharged burden in the
Turtle Lake neighborlood where waves
of water fell from the clouds. Near
Medicine Swan Lakes, twenty miles
east Of Washburn, huge piles of the
Missouri's sand and rubbish are said
to have been deposited with the break
of the clouds preceding the drenching
downpour of water.

hacking cough that for many years
had made life a burden. All other
remedies and doctors could give her no

and 1 can now sleep sOundly, some

under the North Dakota statutes to re-
cover 81, ZOO damages for death by wrong
full act. The defense in the latter action
admitted the willful killing, but claimed
the character and traits of the boy were
such as gave rise to no damages to the
parents.
Olin's connection with the wheat cases

defense. The jury in the case returned
Il verdict of 81 against the defendant.

A stratling incident, Of which Mr..
John Oliver Of Philadelphia, was the
subject, is narrated by him as follows:
II was in a most dreadful condition.
My skin was almost yellow, eyes
sunken, tongue coated, pain contin-
ually in back and sides, no appetite
gradually growing weaker day by day.
Three physicians had given me up.
Fortunately, a friend advised trying
Electric Bitters, and to my great Joy
and surprise, the first bottle made a de
cided improvement. I continued their
use for three weeks, and nm now a
well man. I know they saved my life,
and robbed the grave Of another vic
TIM" No n should fail to try them.
Only so cts, guaranteed, at P. @. Rem

Poor George.

Cando Herald: George McWilliams
had a very narrow escape from being
killed last Wednesday. He had gone to
bring a colt home from the pasture, and
had secured the animal with a rope
around the neck, when it started to run,
and in some way the rope got twisted
around Georges wrist, throwing him and
the colt dragging him around the pas
ture for nearly half an hour. His cloth
ing was torn to shreds and how he es-
escaped being killed seems a mystery.
Fortunately he retained consciousness
until the animal, tired out, stopped of
it's own accord. Sveral times he was
dragged over Instructions which would
surely have killed him had he not kept
his presence of mind and raised his head
and otherwise assisted himself over
them. He gnawed the rope with his
teeth, not being able to slacken it, and
had it almost cut in two when the colt
stopped running. AS soon as he was
able to free himself the reaction came
and he lost consciousness for the first
time. The strein on his arm must have
been terrible, as must also have been
the mental strain while being dragged
at the heels Of the frightened animal
George was out and in town Friday. He
is carrying his arm in a sling. There il
nothing broken but he is still very sore
and his teeth are all loose from chewing
the rope.
