have been so great with a
straight blow, was probably
made by the two storms meet
ing. 1t could hardly classed as
a cyclone.
The wind did considerable damage
in Roswell, but shade trees were the
only serious sufferers, outside the
electric light, power and telephone
systems. Many trees were either tro
ken down or their beauty ruined by
tn loss of limbs. The town presented
somewhat the appearance of forest
and loggers' camp this morning, with
huge limbs and their foliage scatter
ed everywhere, and men with axes
clearing away the brush. Eleven
breaks were made in the electric
light wires, all over town, and while
they We're still "alive" there was
great danger of personal injury, but
fortunately no one came in contact
with the wires. The telephone system
had about a dozen wires broken
down, and about forty crossed wires
which greatly hampered the service
today The electric current had to
be shut off last night and was off a
greater part of the day.
In the country the damage was still
greater. The orchards suffered con-
siderably, many trees being ruined
and others partly broken down. A
large percentage of the apples were
shaken from the trees, but in most
instances this will be a benefit, as
the crop was too large for the trees
to bear East of town the damage
was especially heavy, 100 trees being
injured or ruined on the Slaughter
farm, and others suffering in proper
ton. Lovers Lane is said to have
been impossible this morning, the
ground being entirely covered with
the massive limbs of broken trees.
The wind ana RAIN at Artesia is
reported to have been about the same
as at Roswell. AT Carlsbad the wind
was lighter and the rainfall about
twice as much as in this locality
J. NJ. O'Kelley reports that 3S trees
in one bunch in Lovers Lane were
blown down, and that he was driving
through the lane alone when the

REPORTED

r. H. Kemp this morning received
a telegram from parties at Sunnyside
Tor Fort Sumner) stating that in a
heavy storm there last night four per
sons were killed, forty more injured
and that many buildings were dam
aged or destroyed. The message re-
ferred to the storm as cyclone, but
his was probably erroneous.
The Record sent long distance tel
epnone messages of inquiry towards
he storm center, but could reach no
farther than La Lande, which is a
Few miles east of Sunnyside. The on
~ reports received were from Tom
Davenport and the central telephone
operator at Clovis. One stated that
three people were killed and thirty
injured. The other conceded with the
Kemp message. The Record also tele-
sraphed J. A. Pardue, a merchant at
5unnyside and correspondent of w,
VI. Reed on the upper Pecos, and
asked him for an accurate report on
he storm. At 2:30 this afternoon no
answer had been received.

Denver, Colo, July 3.-This is

BRYAN DEFENDS HEARST.
Lincoln. Neb., July 3.-Of the
keenest interest is Mr.. Bryan's
defence in today's Commoner of
Hearst and his Independence
party. 1t is considered signifi-
can't that Bryan should take up
and defend Hearst's attitude and
sincerity at this time. Delegates
here who are willing to express
themselves believe that Mr.. Bry-
an is not only willing to make
peace with the New York man,
but will go SO far as to make
overtures to that end. One Ken
lucky delegate stated his belief
that the result will be that when
the Independence party holds
it's convention it will endorse
Bryan for the presidency, or pos
sibly accept the whole ticket.
The wording of the article in
the Commoner, which is entirely
of an editorial nature, leaves
little doubt that Mr.. Bryan is in
sympathy to great extent with
the reforms advocated by Mr..
Hearst.

From Fridays Daily Sun.
Homeless, penniIess. sick with a re-
lapse Of typhoid fever. was the sad
plight in which Gilbert Yost OF Gin
cinnati died at Raleigh on last satur-
day night.
He was passing through the coun-
try in the disguise of a tramp and lit
tie attention was paid to the man by
the citizens Of Raleigh, where he had
been forced to rest up for few days,
until the attention OF T. ]. Cone was
called TO the stranger.
Mr.. Cone approached the man and
saw that he was sick, seriously SO,
and at once ordered a physician to
come 20 the assistance Of the unfortu-
nate being and render him what as
sistance he could, TO see II the man
could not be nursed back to health
and strength and finally give some ac-
count Of himself. but the dreaded
maIady had too great hold upon It's
victim, and as a result the unfortunate
man passed away. stranger among
strangers.
Although the man was conscious,
he never at any time gave any ac-
count OF himself, or doings, and the
matter was not pressed upon him by
Mr. Cone. who thought him too seri-
ously III to talk Of these matters at
that time.
DR.. Willis OF Williston was sum-
moned and did everything possible.
but he gave II as his opinion that the
patient had a severe attack Of typhoid
fever and this was a relapse.
After his death the body was neatly
dressed and deceased appeared to be
good-looking and apparently man OF
refinement, his every feature bearing
out these Impressions.
Among his effects was found only
