JUST SWEPT THE ROOFS.
Tornado Spent Most of It's Force Just
Above the Earth.

Sheboygan, Wis, August 21.-A careful
review of the havoc caused by yester-
days tornado shows the damage to have
been far less than at first thought. The
number of buildings destroyed or badly
damaged is not over Is and the pecuniary
loss in the neighhOrhood of 100000. The
most remarkable feature of the storm
is that not a life was lost
The storm originated at Marinette and
seems to have followed the line of the
Chicago & Northwestern railway down
as far as Oshkosh. There it veered to
the east and apparently spent itself on
Lake Michigan. While the storm did
considerable damage all along it's track
III was most severe at this point. The
width of the storm was about half a
mile. 1t does not appear to have stuck
close to the earth as the ordinary tor
nado does but to have spent 1t greatest
force at some distance from the ground.
This accounts for the many houses with
PARTLY demolished roof

Missionaries Who Were Safe With the
Legations.

Chicago August 21.-A special to the
Tribune from Bucyrus, o., says:
The news of the safety of DR.. Roberts
has just reached here in a cablegram
from Shanghai. The message states
that Dr.. Roberts and severa, missing
missionaries who had been stationed on
a farm at Koofen, have been located with
the legation at Pekin, and are now with
the allied forces, having been liberated
on August Is. Two other women who
were members of the party are missing.
They are Mrs. Charles Roberts and Mrs.
Nellie Parker. Mrs. Parker is known to
have been killed by the Boxers, who sur
rounded the Koofan farm early in July

the safety of Mrs. Roberts, who is al

sacred city of Pekin Friday.

Adyices from the provincial capitals show
that the attitude of southern mandarins
has been friendly since the allies reached
Pekin. Some of the magistrates have been
issuing proclamations commanding the
Chinese to attend to business and to avoid
sedttion and acknowledge that the inva-
sion of the foreigners is justified.
