Complaints Of poor deliveries are

Memphis, Tenn. A tornado swept
through central Mississippi Saturday
nisht, doing great damage to the towns
of Winona, Maben. Okolona and Tchula
md completely devastating the crops
in that section. II followed Q torrential
rain that has been falling all over North
and Central Mississippi and West Ten

road tracks washed out in every direc-
tioo IL is not possible to locate all Of the
places which have been hit. A num-
bsr Of towns along the Southern and

The property loss is quite extensive.
Al Winona the Christian church, the
Catholic church, the Negro Methodist
church, the opera-house, the postofice,
and q number Of fine residences were
laid in ruins. in addition numerous
other houses were unroofed and dam
aged In other ways.
At Maben the bank and several brick
stores we're blown down. At Mathistou
the Baptist church, the public school
and several large brick stores were de-
molished, and . number Of other build.
iags damaged.
Perhaps as heavy loss will be en-
tailed on the planters. The rains wash
ed the fiber from the boil and the wind
drove it into the mud, making it an
utter impossibility to gather any Of it.
Reports from Tennessee show that
railroad traffic has suffered more than
ever before in the history Of the State.
Tracks are washed out for long
stretches, bridges are down, and in
some places the water is standing over
the tracks for miles, making it an utter
impossibility to operate trains.
Farmers have suffered great loss, and
it is reported from authentic sources
that several thousand cattle that were
being fed for the market have been
drowned
