STORM STRIKES DANBURY.

Danbury Oct. 16.-Shortly after four
o'clock this afternoon a wind storm of
hurricane velocity struck here and for
q short while caused much havoc. The
storm came up suddenly from the
northwest and had every appearance of
q summer thunder storm minus the
electrical accompaniment. Limbs of
trees were torn off in all sections of the
city and a fifty-foot fagpole in front of
the New England hotel was blown over.
AT Lake Kenosha the roof of the big
ice house was also torn off by the wind.
A drenching rain prevailed for half an
hour.

EFFECTS OF WARM WEATHER.
Wheat Heading and Fruit Budding
in PaIOuse County.

Special Dispatch to the Post-Intelligencer.
COLFAX, Jan. 22.-It is very much of
a puzzle to the people of the Palouse
country whether the winter season of
1S99-1900 will witness any winter weather.
With the exception of three or four days
in the early part Of December, no snow
infrequent, or any frost for that matter.
Fol, days and days the weather has been
as fair as in summer, and the tempera-
ture as balmy as in the spring time.
Fall-s s grain that has not been pas;
to head out, and In the Endicott neigh
borhood, in the, western, part of the
county, on the first of the year, fields
could be seen where the grain was in the
boot-that is where the grain berry was
forming. Hundreds of acres of fall-sown
grain has been cut. for the purpose of re-
tarding development.
In the orchards both fruit and leaf buds
ARE swelled nearly to bursting. Farm
ers and orchardists are of the opinion
that severe winter weather now would not
damage grain to any extent, but would
undoubtedly destroy this years fruit crop
and very probably would kill many of the
trees.
