Midnight Tornado Smashcs Town OF
Pukwana.
The little town of Pukwana. In
Brule county. about fifty miles west OF
Mitchell. on the Chicago. Milwaukee
and St Pau road. was nearly wiped
put OF existence Saturday night by the
visitation OF a tornado which covered
an extent OF about q quarter OF a mile
wide, wrecking everything ! n its path.
The storm struck Pukwana about IL
o'clock, and Notwithstanding h VII
layers were sound asleep and had no
warning no person was seriously in
jured. The tornado came from the
northwest.
Between twelve and, fifteen business
houses and residences were absolute
~ destroyed. while there Is not a house
In the town but what vas wrecked to
some extent. People were driven from
their homes and wandered helplessly
In the driving storm OF hail and rain.
Two large elevators were blown down
across the Milwaukee track. covering
Z freight car. The depot was practi-
cally wrecked and the main track OF
road was shut of from traffic for the
day. Several new houses which were
Just completed were flattened to the
ground and the lumber scattered In
every direction.
The greatest personal loss was on
the Experimentation farm. which
Adjoins the town on the north, from
which direction the tornado came. Ev-
cry building on the ranch was de-
Stroyed. two Of these being small resi-
dences. Over 100000 worth OF i'm
provements have been made on the
ranch In the past few years. An I'M
mense barn had just been completed,
and 1t went with the half dozen other
structures.
Accompanying the tornado was q
hall and rain storm. The hail COW
ered a section of country about three
miles wide, and what the tornado
failed to do the hail storm finished up,
The entire farming country passed
over by the hail storm was ruined
hardly a vestige of the once promising
crop remaining to tell the story n
the light OF morning revealed the fear
full waste.

Peoria Mystery Partially Cleared Up

Peoria Mystery Partially Cleared Up
by Discovery OF Remains.
The body OF William Patterson, who
was drowned Tuesday evening while
boat riding with Lottie NJ. Flag, Of
Galesburg, ILL.,, was found Friday.
Later the body of Miss Flagg was
found.
The condition Of the bodies, which
were discovered by fishermen. bears
mute and awful evidence that the
mans brutal passion caused the trag-
edy. Patterson left Virginia Beach
in his shirt sleeves, n when found
his vest was still upon the body, with
his watch and the contents OF the
pockets untouched. His lower gar
ments had been removed. 1t was with
scanty sympathy that his body was
dragged into shallow water close in
shore and Deputy Coroner Elliott sum-
moned. He visited the place at once
and ordered the body taken to an
undertaker's.
Miss Flagg was % years old and has
a mother living in Galesburg.
No one at the beach appears to
know much of Patterson, who had an
amusement concession there.
