COTTON COMPLETELY RUINED.
What the Wind, Rain and Hail Did For One
Farmers Crop.

From the Albany Herald.
A gentleman who has been on the
Haugabooh place, five and half miles
from the city, states to Herald man
that the work of the rain and wind
there had been severer than else
where, so far as his knowledge went,
and that the spectacle presented in
more than one field was well calcu-
lated to cause establishment.
One of Mr.. Haugabook' fields, our
informant stated, had embraced one
hundred and fifty acres of cotton. The
hard rains that fell packed the ground
around the plants in such manner as 10
severely injure them, and the hard
winds that followed killed them out
right. In the whole field there remains
hardly living plant, and Mr.. Hauga-
book, at this late season, will be com.
pelled to make an entire replanting.
Cotton on farms adjacent to Mr.. Haug-
abook's suffered nearly as much as his

a NEW SURVEY.
The City Limits Will Be Def
nitely Fixed by the Coun-
ty Surveyor.

The city council has employed Coun-
ty Surveyor Waller to make survey
of the town for the purpose of definite
ly esta blishing the limits. 1t has been
mum Der of years since survey OF
the city's boundaries has been made,
and some uncertainty exists as to their
exact position in several directions.
The council believes that number
of houses which are now considered
out of the limits will be found to be in
the city after the survey is made, and
it is very probable that an increase in
the towns population will thus result.
The survey was begun yesterday.

RED RAIN FALLS IN SICILY.
Inhabitants of Lower Italy Terrified
by Atmospheric Phenomena.

A special cable to the New York Jour-
nal and Advertiser from Rome yesterday
says: A terrible African wind swept over
Italy today. All southern and central
Italy was in its baleful grasp. The air,
hot and enervating, was laden with sand
and dust. Since early morning Rome was
enveloped in suffocating cloud of dust,
the red fog or sirocco dust which for CEN
turtles has been the bane and terror Of
countries bordering on the Mediterranean
sea. At Avellino, Naples, Sorrento, Saser-
ia and many other points fell showers OF
what appeared to be dust and ashes.
While the scorching, parching winds blew
the heavens were aflame with angry color,
making spectacle at once awful and ter
ror-inspiring.
The whole OF Sicily was visited by blood
colored rains. At Rome the sky was yell
low; at Naples red.
The inhabitants are terror-stricken. In
Naples every one OF the 800 churches was
packed with frightened and superstitious
people, frantically beseeching the saints for
protection. Some dreadful disaster is
looked for, the red sandstorm, according
to popular belief, always presaging some
mighty tragedy.
PALERMO, Sicily, March 10-The
"bloody rain" is falling all over Sicily. It
is an infrequent phenomenon here, and is
terror-inspiring. The rain drops resemble
coagulated blood They are thick with
blood-red dust, which is probably swept up
from the African deserts and borne hither
on the strong wind now blowing.
Ever since last night red cloud
stretched across the heavens. the sky be-
ing colored a deep red. Storms of this
nature usually last from twenty-four To
forty-eight hours. They have been known
to last for a week.
