WINDSTORNI HITS
SEVERAL Cities.
ST. CLOUD AND sAUK RAPIDS,
MIMI, ARE HIT THE
HARDEST.
Heavy Dam age to Personal Property
During the 22 M nutes of Wind
and Rain. In St. Paul Woman
Dies of Fright.

St. Cloud, Mimi, Aug. 21.-At 5:15
O'Clock yesterday afternoon the worst
storm that this section has experienced
for several years swept over this city
and Sauk Rapids, just across the river.
In many respects the storm resem bled
a cyclone. The wind blew terrific
gale, and hail stones weighing from
three to four ounces fell, the rain de-
scending in torrents.
Two people were injured during the
storm, John Welm and William Strem-
mel Welm was thrown from buggy,
sustaining double fracture of the leg
and a broken nose. Stremmel was
standing on the sidewalk and several
panes of glass struck him on the head,
cutting his scalp slightly. g
The storm. lasted just twenty-five
minutes, but in that time many thou
sands of dollars worth of damage was
done to the residences and crops in the
surrounding territory.
It is estimated that 1000 panes of
glass were broken, from 1000 to / 800
shade trees uprooted, and one hundred
to three hundred sheds and small
houses blown down in the two towns
The heaviest individual loss will
probably be sustained by the Sauk
Rapids branch of julius Neil Lumber
company. The mill in that city,
which, with the yards, is one of the
largest in this part of the state, was
BADLY damaged Nearly one-third of
the company's lumber piles were blown
down, the lumber being carried either
towards this city or swept down the
Mississippi river.
The electric lighting and street rail-
way plant is completely demoralized,
and it will take several days before
the damage can be repaired.
Most of the crop losses will be sus-
tanned in Stearns and Benton counties,
the for mer will probably suffer the
most damage because the storm swept
from the northwest through the south
extremities of these counties. Every
shock of wheat standing will have to
he reshocked as most of the. grain
was laid fat.
The total rainfall during the short
duration of the storm is estimated at
3 2-6 inches

said the paper lay on the floor about

Once started, he needed to
keep going. Any tyro who

how utterly blank the mind
becomes.
The foreman knOtted his
broWs. He bit his lip. He
clawed his hand through his
histr'onic locks and glared
dehantly at the meeting.
He scruffed the back of his
head. He went back for a
new start, and mumbled
falteringly; "Ye call me

Now the principal reason why the people of
Freedom ready, in the absorption of
their band enthusiasm to listen to the opposition
was because Foreman StrOut never in his life had
spoken a word in public except to yell through
his trumpet at the annual muster: Brake 'er
down there! Down with 'er, you hump-backed sons
of sea cooks"
His fellow-citizens therefore felt consuming
curiosity this occasion
But though Foreman Strout was making a forensic
debut he was calm. He felt the comfortable con-
sCiousncss of having a speech actually his finger
tips 1t nestled his breast pocket, and his hand
that thrust dramatically there clutched its
corner. He considered it a corking good speech.

freshman in Freedom Academy, and the foreman
had been two months committing it to memory,
favoring his two COWS, his horse, his dog the

But the interruption had been too much for the
