Freaks Of the Storm.
Two Of the strangest freaks report
ID were recorded on the premises oc-
,upied by Nelson Slack, Charles
City baggagemen and drayman. Mr..
Slack had three horses in his barn,
he structure being blown away and
he animals hurled many yards and
,adly hurt. Den of the horses had
,een newly shod, but the storm tore
If two shoes, one being hurled
against the house and the other had
lot been located.
L. II. Slack, brother, Of Nelson,
discovered another odd circumstance
N the same property. One Of Stacks
lens and a quantity Of hay was blown
,ome distance. The fowl had been
disemboweled while beside
t was an egg not even cracked.
A kitchen stove, cupboard and other
urniture took an aerial tour in the
,icinity Of the r. ThuroW home. The
Iitchen was torn off the main part
lick and clean, and the other portion
# the building did not even shake.
furniture was scattered a half block
rom the home, a heavy cook stove be-
ng one of the articles carried the
,reatest distance. Mrs. Thurow and
our children were home alone at the
ime and sought refuge in the cellar.
rhe owner carried no insurance.

lining room, and the storm freak took
he glass and picture, but left the
rame hanging on the wall 1t also
tipped into Mrs. Bettin's bedroom and
appropriated a silk waist, leaving all
,ther garments untouched.
Mrs. Bettin was warned Of the trou-
lie maker by her son who told her to
lurry to the Kelly cellar next door.
The started with her children and saw
he roof depart from her home before
eaching a place OF safety. Her loss
$ between $1,000 and $500, insured
n the Town Mutual of Des Moines.
Kelly Bros, horse dealers we'll
-nown in Waterloo, had a barn filled
With ten horses valued at $1,000, sit
lated beside Mrs. Bettin's property.
ME structure was untouched. altho
-oe Blunt's barn next door was blown
yer and Mrs. Bettin's property is
A scantling passed entirely
