Blows Hard at Paris.

Paris: A heavy wind passed over
this county from northwest to south
east a little after 9 o'clock Thursday
morning. Just before it began to blow
the elements became very black and
there were f1tful dashes of rain. Most
of the telephone wires are down, and
in the absence Of authentic definite in
formation many rumors are afloat, one
of which is that Chtcota, place OF
about 500 inhabitants, north OF Paris
on the river, has been blown away.
Not much credence is attached to the
report, and beyond blowing down small
sheds and unroofing barns, etc, 1t not
believed that there was any serious
damage. The only report OF any one
being injured is that a negro three
miles north of Petty had a foot and
leg hurt. Numbers of shade trees
in town were uprooted, the yards and
streets were Uttered with leaves and
small branches, and awnings in front
of business houses were torn away
