Path of a Devastating
Wind Storm.
MANY HUMAN LIVES REPORTED LOST.

Suffered Severely.

indianapolis, Ind, June 26.-The
most terrific storm in many years
swept over central Indiana about
nine o'clock Wednesday morning. The
telegraph and telephone wires were
torn down along its trail, and com
munication with the storm-swept
section was almost entirely inter
rupted.
From information which had
reached indianapolis up to noon it
was believed there had been a heavy
loss of life.
The storm spent most of its force
in the country 20 or 30 miles north
east of indianapolis, lying between
the Greenfield electric line on the
south and the Union Traction line
to Anderson on the north. Maxwell,
Cleveland and Pendleton suffered
most severely. A telephone message
from Greenfield said that an awful
storm had swept over Hancock coun-
ty, taking in Wilkinson and Pendle-
ton.
Many People Reported Killed.
1t blew down houses in all these
towns, and from 10 to IS people were
reported killed.
Three men in the chain factory in
Maxwell are supposed to be killed. In
a funeral procession at Cleveland,
Ind, Is horses are reported killed
al BON nc
blown down, as well as the chain fac
tory.
Several people are supposed to be
killed in Pendleton.
Nearly every house in Cleveland is
blown down. The roof was blown
off the Hollweg-Reese bottle factory
in Greenfield
Traffic BIockaded.
At McCordsville, Ind, ten trees
were reported blown across the track
of the Union Traction Co., completely
stopping the traffic, and since 1918
this morning no Gas Belt Traction
oars have reached or left Indianapo-
lis.
At Linden, Ind, the plant of the
Greer-Wilknson Lumber Co. was
wrecked, It's lumber house being un-
rooted.
Lebanon, Ind, reported that an inn
mense tree had blown across the tele-
phone wires, destroying for time
all outside communication.
The storm nt indianapolis.
The first intimation which Indian
apolis had Of the storm was at nine
o'clock this morning, when the sky
became suddenly overcast, and the
downtown stores were compelled to
turn on their electric lights. In less
than an hour the sky had lighted and
cleared and the sun was shining.
The local telephone and telegraph
companies suffered severely, In the
Bell Co.'s system, all wires south OF
Chicago and west OF Cincinnati were
laid fiat, and the only way that Chi
cago could be reached was through
st. Louis. No connection could be
had with Tcrre llaute and Louisville,
and for hours the greater part of In
diana was cut off, and no cities north
or east could be reached

With strong dramatic story,
nicely told, plenty of neat up To- date
specialties and wealth of beautiful

Denver Express certainly contains
every element OF the successful melo-
drama. No more beautiful stage
picture can be conceived than the
first act setting, representing a val
ley in the heart of the Rocky Noun
tains at sunrise, and no more start
ling sensational effect was ever IN
PRODUCED than the attack Of the red
skins on a band of emigrants which
occurs at the climax of the act.
The wonderful railroad effect and
the fight for life in the last act
are also features worthy of special
attention.

BUY ANOTHER MILL.
The HAYWARD Lumbering Industry
Goes Into New Hands.
HINES COMPANY THE BUYERS.
Douglas County Pine viii Furnish the Mill
and Keep it Running for Several
Years The Strenuous Work of
the Giant Lumber Concern
HINES COMPANY THE BUYERS.

The Hines Lumber Company have
purchased the North Wisconsin
Lumber Companys plant at Hay
ward. Not only have they taken
the mill, but their purchase also in
cludes the store and bank of the
company This institution has for
many years been conducted by the
Weyerhauser's under the manage
ment OF Colonel r. L. Mccormick,
who was also a large stockholder in
the enterprises. The Hines people
expect to haul 300, 900, 600 feet Of
Douglas county pine to the mill 60 be
manufactured into lumber, and the
press reports say that this will keep
the mill running for eight years.
The Edward Hines interests seems
to be getting a corner on pretty
much everything that is loose in the
numbering business. They are sue
ceeding Weyerhausef wherever there
is a chance to do SO, and the remain
ing interests in timber and saw mills
are being gobbled up by the firm.
Washburn has one of their largest
institutions, while they have still
another one of our mills saving for
them. The Edward Hines people al
so operate extensively in Ashland,
and there is a great movement of in
dustry in their plants. They seem
determined to get through with what
they have in these regions just as
