 Harris was about 30 years of age, cultured, well educated man of good address and an orator of repute. His father, Will A. Harris, a prominent attorney of this city. who died sud denly a few months ago. was a Con federate Veteran, and one of the most distinguished orators of the California bar.

STORM RACES THROUGH SOUTH Wind and Hail Sweeps Over
 Three States. MANY WIRES PR0STRATED Hail Stones Fall Larger Than Ever
 Seen Before. Nearly Every House in Crackers Cap- ftal Suffers Much Loss and Many Narrow Escapes From Death
 in storm Are
 Reported.
MANY WIRES PROSTRATED

Atlanta, Ga, Oct 1.-The worst hail storm perhaps that the South has ever experienced. with its accompany ing heavy wind, electrical display and wind. assuming in some sections cy- clonic proportions left serious dam age to crops and property in it's wake through North Georgia, North Ala hama and Tennessee late this after noon.
 With wire communication badly crippled in every direction and hund- reds of towns in the path of the dis turbance entirely isolated, it is im- possible with the meagre reports re- ceived to estimate the damage, but 1t is believed here that the cotton remaining in the fields in the path of the storm is practically a total loss. with the damage to other property running into the hundreds of thou sands of dollars.
 Starting about sixty miles east or Atlanta. at o'clock, the storm swept northwest and inside of two hours had traversed a large section of this state, crossed several counties in Tennessee and was last exported moving west ward over North Alabama.
 Hailstones varying in size from one to three inches in diameter fell all the way from Athens Ga., to Decatur Alabama and at Tennessee points At Atlanta many of the particles of ice weighed one pound.
 The damage to property in the city of Atlanta will total $100,000. Wires here were prostrated and but few tele- phones in the city are working.
 It is impossible to secure any kind of communication with many towns even with a radius of forty miles of the city.
 Several lives are reported lost in Madison and Lincoln counties Ten hessee.

Communication Cut on.

Memphis Tenn, Oct. 14.-That a de- structive storm of wind and hall swept over West and Middle Tennessee and North Alabama early tonight is evil denced by the fact that no communica- . ton of any kind whatever can be had with those sections.
 Telegraph and telephone wires are down and reports from small towns in the extreme western counties of Ten nessee state that a severe wind storm occurred at 6 o'clock tonight, unroof- ing houses. levelIing telegraph poles and doing other damage. No loss of life is reported from these points
 Incoming trains from the storm swept area are late and their moy ments are uncertain because Of lack of telegraph facilities in giy 2. orders.
 There were no evidences of the storm in Memphis other than sudden drop in the temperature.
 Illinois Central limited train from Chicago, which passed through part of the storm area. arrived here at 9 o'clock tonight. Trainmen report that the region lying immediately east of Dyersburg felt the storm. whicn did minor damage. No one is reported in- jured.
 The Louisville and Nashville ex- press from the east arrived at the same time. The conductor stated that the country about Brownsville, Tenn, felt the full effect of the wind. and general damage occurred to frail struc lures. There were no fatalities along this line.
 The storm apparently swept over North Alab anna, travelling northward into Tennessee and Kentucky. It was accompanied in many places by vio- lent downfall of hail.

HOlE tF BLOUNT HAS NOW PASSED

New Crleal La. Oct. 14.--The last hope of Avery Blount. condemned to die on the gallows tomorrow for the murder of the Breeland family in Tan glpahoa parish, was removed late to- day when Acting Governor Lambre- mont refused to commute the sentence, following the refusal of the Board of Pardons last night to recommend clem- ency.
 Rumors were in circulation today to the effect that Blount's friends would make an attempt to take him out of the jail at Amite. La, where he is con- fined but there appears to be no indi- cation of such a movement tonight according to reports from Amite. State troops continue to guard the jail.

 The revolution heade,. ., aen. Juan J. Estrada against President Zelaya has aroused the etnire country and seems to be sweeping the republic. Everywhere the people are reported to be fiocking to the armies of the revo- lutionists.
 From the interior comes the news that the revolutionists have seized Ri- vas and also that Corinto, the seaport on the Pacific has declared for the revolution and has ovsrthrown the Government there.
 News from Greytown today Is that there was some fighting there yester- day Tuesday, before the city was taken by the revolutioinsts. Colonel Ugarte, at the head of force of sev- era1 hundred revolutionists, arrived at Greytown before the main body of the insurgents under General Chamorro Estrada. Colonel Ugarte called on the garrison to surrender, but was answer ed with a volley. His men returned the fire and after a sharp fight Ugarte rhshed the garrison and captured it. and then took possession of the town with no further resistance.
 In the fighting there were some fa- tallties some men being killed on eith- CT side and a number wounded.
 Upon the arrival at Greytown later in the evening of Tuesday of the main body under General Chamorro Estrada, the entire forces left for the interior to attack the fortified town of Gas. tillo,

 "Ill get it." volunteered Commis sioner Krewson, who ran to a nearby farmhouse and requested the loan of bucket with which to carry water to the stalled machine. The farmer said he might have the pail, but as for the water. "he guessed not" for 1t was "too scarce to waste on them there whlz wagons"
 The Commissioner thought the man was joking. but soon learned that the farmer had scarcely a bucketful about the place. as the supply had to be haul ed for miles.
 This experience was repeated at sev- eral farmhouses, so the Commissioners got out of the machine and pushed 1t along the road until a stream was en- countered which had enough water to cool the mechanis

ATLANTA HARD HIT.
Wreck and Ruin Left tn Georgia Me
 trOpolia.


 Atlanta, Oct. 14.--A wind and hail storm of eyclonic proportions struck Atlanta at 5:20 this afternoon and left a trail of wreck and ruin behind it.
 Hundreds of windows were broken, chimneys were blown down, trees were uprooted and houses were unroofed. The property loss Is estimated at at least $10.000. There were no casual ties.
 The storm lasted only twelve min utes but the wind attained and teld a velocity of fifty-siX miles an hour. Pedestrians were blown against build ings, and In some instances through windows. The covers of umbrellas S were stripped from the0 by the hail stones one of which weighed fourteen ounces.
 Street car traffic was suspended for a time and is not entirely restored at midnight. Electric light wires strewn through the streets made travel very unsafe. Telephone and telegraph wires are down in all directions ond several nearby cities are cut off.
 The Weather Bureau announces that the storm was purely local in extent and that there was no damage done elsewhere.
 Hail stones larger than a mans fist covered the ground. some of them weighing as much as seven ounces. Hardly a house in the city escaped the loss Of several windows and Tn the business districts the sidewalks were strewn with glass, many narrow es- capes from serious injury being re- ported.
 I. Balagur. a tailor, was struck by an immense hail stone while stand ing in the doorway of his establish ment and felled to the floor with a two-inch gash in his head.
 Street car traffic was temporarily suspended and many of the cars suf- fered smashed windows.
 While the storm here was of brief duration, telephone and telegraph wires were prostrated in many in- instances, cutting off communication with points between Atlanta and Nashville entirely. Fears are enter tained that nearby towns suffered heavily.
