DEADLY KANSAS TORNADO.
Twenty-nine Persons Killed at the
Village Of Marquette.

Marquette, Kan. May 10.-Twenty-
nine lives We're lost and forty-four
people were severely injured by tor
nado which struck this town at mid
night Monday night and cut a clean
swath 100 yards in width through its
entire length. Coming as it did, the
people were caught without mo-
ment's warning. A heavy rain storm
had preceded the wind and after the
tornado passed a scene OF complete
desolation followed
The tornado broke upon the town
with great force. wrought its terrific
havoc within few minutes time and
continuing on into the rich farming
country north OF Marquette. caused
further damage.
In Marquette many residences were
completely demolished, the wreckage
being carried away entirely, while
others were picked up bodily, moved a
short distance away and dropped to
earth.
Many of the victims were killed as
they lay asleep. Others, manned and
bleeding awoke to find themselves
buried in the wreckage of their former
homes.
Monday afternoon had been hot and
oppressive. the atmosphere loaded
with electricity. Later in the evening
terrific rain storm broke over the
town. The rain continued to fall in
torrents until 11:55 last night when
the tornado struck. Within less than
five minutes it had wrought its terri
BILE work and passed on. Telegraph
and telephone wires were carried
down and it was several hours before
the outside world could be apprised
of the plight of the city.

Tombstone, Arizona, Well Named.

The people familiar with the history
of Tombstone, Ariz., are inclined to
believe that there is something in
name. Tombstone in 1878 became the
center of attraction in Arizona to the
pioneer Drospectors when the first
mines were opened up at that point.
The population quickly increased to
over 5000 and it became the center
of mining activity in the Southwest.
The last census gave the population
as 400. The mines are worked out
and the population has drifted away
to more prosperous camps. Therefore
the town has indeed come to merit its
name. for it marks the burial spot
of many blasted hopes.
Many another Western mining town
has had the same history. though few
have so aptly told it to the world in
their titles.
