that often one coat collar of it will cost

THERE'S HAVOC
IN WINDS PATH
Roof Blown off One Build
ing by Gale and Church
Window Wrecked.
PHONE SERVICE DAMAGE
Wires Are Displaced and Poles
DOwn-Repairs Delayed On
Account of Gale

The wind that has been blowing at a
hurricane velocity since noon has caus-
ed considerable damage in and about
the city. A large ornamental window
in the Episcopal church was blown in
seriously damaging the altar. The
loss of the window and the other in
jury that was done to the church will
amount to several hundred dollars.
The roof of one of the buildings of
the Inland Steel company was lifted
off and deposited with a crash in the
yard below. Fortunately there was no
one in the way at the time and there
was no loss of life.
Telephone and telegraph wires are
down and as a result the service is
crippled. It has been almost impos-
sible to make repairs on account of the
danger of climbing the poles in the
gale.
Around the corner of the Hammond
building the wind blew such a gale
that it was almost impossible for
pedestrians to keep their footing.
Women especially had difficulty in
making any progress against the hur-
ricane that was blowing and time and
again they had to stop to catch their
breath and gather themselves together
