Not Much Damage Here

A heavy Rim storm was experienced
by this city S Iday afternoon and
although it did not last long the
cipitation was great. At times it

did good Ideally as the crops were just
beginning to show the effects of the
hot spell.
1t seems that this city got the very
edge Of the storm, however, as other
places have sometkin different to say
about 1t. In st. Cl)rd about q hun
drtd shade trees were either unearthed
or broken. tin roof was blown of q
building. and signs and awnings were
blown AID torn from the business
houses. At Osseo a house and wind.
mill were blown over the Great
Northern tracks, which forced the
trains to come up on the other side of
the river for time. Much damage
was done to corn in that vicinity.
The Northwestern Telephone company e
lines between St. Cloud and the Twin
Cities were also greatly affected by
the storm. In Brainerd hundreds Of
window psnes were broken, even plate
glass not being able to weather the
storm. Trees were blown down and
considerable damage was done to q
school house, and much dirt support.
ing railroad tracks in a ravlne wa.
washed away, much damage was also
done to foundations Of buildings there.
This city is certainly situated in an
ideal spot IN regard to storms az none
Of any size have ever struck here
although they have come within few
miles of the city.
