by the published report of the contrlbu-
tions, received between $S2 900 and 1888. 900
in cash for the sufferers greater por-
ton of which was contributed especially
for Galveston and has to be used for that
place only. In addition to the amount
of cash received by the Houston commit
tee Governor Sayers has received consid-
erable--just how much is not known here
The committee has organized systemat
acally, realizing that 1t has a long job,
aud is conducting its work in a business
like manner.
An auditor has been appointed to take
charge OF the accounts and a complete set
OF books will be kept in order that evcty
dollar expended can be satisfactorily ac-
counted for at any time in the future.
Experienced business men are at the
heads of all committees and the most jul
dicious use of the money received is being
made.

rHn STORM Ar BnuNNrR.


Outside OF the immediate gulf coast
towns there are few places that suffered
more from the storm than Drummer. Not
residence or place In the addition es-
capped more or less damage. Both school
houses and the Methodist church are en-
tirely demolished. The postoifice is a to-
tai wreck and he office with its sup
plies badly damaged by wind and rain,
with some OF the supplies and much OF the
mai blown away. Through the kindness
OF DR.. Hudson the postoffics is again OPP
ened up at the drug store and Colonial
Archer, the postmaster, though little
dishgured Is still in the ring.
On Thursday evening the citizens held a
NEE ing under call OF Mr.. B. A. Rando phi
and resolved to rebuild their school
houses Judge Vasmer, Prof. james, judge
Campbell and others made talks and a
committee was appointed 10 devise ways
and means to rebuild. It was the sense OF
the meeting that Brunner could and would
soon have her school houses erected and
the schools under way.
The Methodist church people are equally
sangune OF rebuilding their church and
now have workmen clearing away the
wreck and trying TO save such lumber as
may be OF use in rebuilding,
In residence property the Michigan
company is probably the greatest suffer
ers, but every property owner in Drummer
suffered some loss.

Two children. Albert Campbell aud

St. Joseph's inhrmary.
These two children and one other
named Murrey. who Is at present in Gal

phans home near the beach. there being
at the time the building was blown down
over 100 people in the building.
Most OF the occupants. at the time the
building fell, were down stairs. but these
children with several others were in the
upper story.
When they felt the building was about
to 30 they jumped out of - window. and
after n desperate struggle. managed to
catch firmly to branch of a tree. Thus
they remained all during the rest OF the
hurricane. Tho next morning they were
found bruised and bleeding. almost numb
with the cold and thirsty, hungry and
nearly dead from want OF food ant
water.
1t is quite remarkable that these three
little children should be the only ones
spared out Of over 100 people.
