South African Dutchman& Lucky to

Martin Drew of W'Putezeni, South
Africa. writes as follows to friend
Of q recent happening in that vicinity:
"A chap named De Beer of Shiloh was
walking down from the Bubi river. He
slept just this side of the Bembesi.
Shortly after sunrise he: started to
walk on. leaving his boy to pack up
and follow. He hadn't gone half 4
mile when he heard a lion grunt be-
hind him. Turning, there was lion
ess about fifty yards away and she
came on to within about twenty PAGES.
Then he let her have it, breaking her
lower jaw. She charged and the next
shot broke one front leg. The third,
at close quarters, missed her alto
gether. The lioness got De Beer down
and his left hand and arm, with which
he was trying to guard his face. were
much bitten. She got hold of his
hand with her back teeth and chewed
it badly. but her jaw and front leg
being broken she could not finish him
of. Ho had little terrier dog with
him, and the dog, about this time, fas.
tened into the lioness' ear and hung
on. This made the brute shift little
and DeBeer was able to get hold of his
rifle with his right hand. He shot her
through the chest and she died on top
OF him with his left hand still in her
mouth. The natives made some med.
icine' and tied his wounds up. He
walked on here and after we had done
what We could for him he went on
home. The poor chap is terribly torn
about, but no bones are broken. al.
though his clothes were ripped to
rags"

4 TERRIFIC STORM
RACES on Lake Superior. Doing Much
Damage to Life and Property.

&sE f..
The memory Of living man does not
recall storm on Lake Superior to COM
pare with that of last Monday night and
Tuesday. A strong northeast wind had
been blowing all day Monday but, al
though it's velocity increased along
towards evening. nothing unusual was
thought OF. But about two O'Clock
Tuesday morning the people living close
to the shore OF the east bay were awak-
ened by the extraordinary roar Of the
waters to find that the water was wash.
ing over the bank of the lake and into
some OF the houses. Peter Berg, whose
residence was close to tue lake shore, was
awakened by wave which entered bis
house with such force that it tossed
the furniture about. He had just time
TO get his wife and children to place Of
safety, with the assistance of couple of
neighbors, and to remove portion OF
his furniture when the house went to
pieces and the greater part of 1t was car
ried out into the like.
The fury of the storm increased until
about daylight when it was at it's height.
By this time the waves had been lashed
toto biIlows mountain high. At the
home of Mrs. Benson which was situat-
ed on the shore of the east bay, the
waves rolled to such height that the
water washed 10 the windows OF the
second story. All day the waves rolled
over the bank of the east bay completely
submergin9 practically all the business
portion Of the village, wrecklng houses
and barns situated close to the beach,
and bnrying everything with gravel to a
depth of several feet for distance OF
several hundred feet from the beach.
Until about two o'clock in the afternoon
the only means Of trafic in the down
town district was by boat.
All the families residing in the down
town portion were compelled to leave
their homes on account of the water en-
teriDg their houses. Mrs. Benson whose
house was practically wreck, succeeded
IN saving all their effects without dam
age.
It ,s impossible to estimate the dam.
age done by the storm. A portion OF
the dock was washed away and the bal
snce OF the dock and warehouse thereon
were considerably damaged as were also
some Of the buildings on the company's
property. G.. H. Carhart was ona OF the
heaviest lossrs. The loss Of his barn
and other property and damage to his
residence is estimated ut $GOO.
The damage done further mp the lake
was very heavy. Engelson 4 Totes, at
Tofte, are reported to be heavy losers on
account Of the storm. It. worked havoc
10 Duluth, destroying thousands Of dol
lars worth of property ou Minnesota
Point. Several boats were lost in the
upper end of the lake with considerable
loss Of life. Nine men lost their lives on
boat which went ashore a short dis
tance north OF the canal at Duluth, and
only few rods from the shore. Their
destruction was witnessed by hundreds
Of people on the shore who we're unable
to render any assistance.
