Omaha daily bee., 1900-02-09

From this place the wind swept to the
north, its path being west of Collinsville by
a quarter OF a mile, and the last trace of
the storm is to be observed "a Hightsville, a
manufacturing suburb. one mile away. After
the hobart house a group of three dwellings
was felled by the wind. They were occupied
by John Marquette and Paul Marquette and
Philip Crossan and their families. AL
though the small dwellings were completely
demolished all the occupants escaped injury
except John Marquette. His hurts from
falling timbers are not severe, but he is
badly burned. for the debris caught fire
from an overturned lamp and the flames
reached him before the neighbors could
rescue him..
The Hight Club Coal company building
was the next to be attacked, the immense
smokestack being leveled to the ground and
the walls somewhat damaged. From there
the wind swept to the Vandalia tracks, lay
ing waste telegraph poles for the distance
of a quarter of a mile.
Beyond the Vandalia tracks stood a group
of large frame houses, occupied by the
Lawrence, Odderhole and Fix families. The
storm leveled them and nothing is left save
a mass of tangled wreckage. 1t was here
that Mr.. Odderhole and Mr.. Lawrence re-
ceived their serious injuries and it was here
also that the members of the Fix family
were wounded. VI
That the children were not killed is a
marvel. Harry Fix and his sister, Sophie.
were asleep in the same room on the second
floor. The house seemed to separate and
brother and sister were let down with their
beds to the ground floor. There they were
found upon their cnuches. which had not
been broken by the fall, Harry not injured
in the least, but Sophie was crushed under a
falling timber.

 the Mississippi.

 The City Council met last night and had up for discussion the license law for the city. Practically everything was agreed on except the liquor schedule. It will be remembered that the people are to decide on which dfspensary law is to go into effect on July 1. The council are undecided as to the manner in which to arrange the i- cense for only six months. It is necessary for the city to have large amount of money at the beginning of the new year and the amount usually received from the retail liquor dealers is $50OO. The council were unable to determine last night upon an agreement as to the best course to p;iF- sue, so the matter was laid over until the meeting which will be held next Monday night. It is thought that if the license is made very high for the time in which the saloons will have to run next year that
