The recent storm was not confined TO
this immediate locality but seems to
have been general over the greater part
OF the United States west of the Missis-
sippi river. In Arkansas the country
was swept with one of the most dis
astrous tornados of recent years, fol
lowed by hail storm, the ground being
covered to depth of eight inches with
hail A number of lives were lost and
much damage done to property We
are somewhat surprised to learn from
reports publishsd in the Statesman that
this place suffered so severely. IT'S
true the lights we're out and the power
shut off for about 10 or II hours, but
not longer, aud there was quite heavy
fall of snow and some little wind, but
as it was not very much out of the or
binary for a winter storm no one here
paid much attentinn TO it. At Murphy
the loss of two residences by fire is re-
ported, as the high tension line dropped
on telephone wire and the curren.
set fire to the house belonging to the
Trade Dollar company, in which Mr.
Maxwell, the Company's agent, was iv
ing. An adjoining residence, belonging
to the Railroad company, occupied by
the agent, was also consumed. This
was severe loss at this time of the
year. The storm was quite severe il,

The masquerade ball given last even
ing by the "Immottal 5" Of the Joker
Club, was we'll attended, although but
a comparatively small number were
masked The characters represented
we're all we'll sustained by the maskers.
Several very fine costumes we're worn,
the most notable being the two Indian
chiefs. The Silver City Cornet Band
was there in full force and afforded
much amusement for the spectators
However they soon tired of the sport
and discarded their masks. The hall
was tastefully decorated in manner
that does much credit to the members
of this famous club, showing that they
possess a talent for such work that
should insure them world wide repu-
tation when it becomes generally
known, and if they should decide to
open a decorating and dress making
establishment there is no doubt that
their fortunes would be made, as they
would be overrun with customers
With good music, good floor and a
congenial crowd the evening soon pas
sed away and when we were ordered
home by our better half the merry
crowd we're just getting started to have
merry old time.
