Killed In Tornado.
Barn and Outbuildings Crash
In Ruins.

| A terrific tornado concentrated its de-
destructive force upon the farm of Hi
ram F. Stein, two miles south Of Peters
vile, this county, shortly before seven
O'Clock last Friday evening, and leveled
every building on the place except the
house. With the collapse Of the newly
erected barn, four men and boy who
were in the structure were pinned be-
meath the ruins and badly injured. Five
work horses, the only stock in the barn,
were killed.
Mr.. Stein and his workmen were en-
gagged in unloading wheat in the barn at
the time the storm arose. This was the
last load of the crop to be stored in the
NOV. As the storm became fiercer the
two colored hands, Harold Brooks and
George Fletcher. unhitched the horses
and took them to the overchute. Mr..
S.ein. his boy and carpenter, Robert
Gordon, were above in the barn.
The storm ragged and the wind sudden
ly, without any special warning, swoop-
ed down against the sides of the barn,
and like cyclone destroyed the build
ings. In perfect wreck the large barn
crashed to the ground. All the outbuild-
ings and the stables around were demol-
ished. The damage was conf ned to the
vicinity of the barn and the house was
left standing.
Mr.. Stein and his eight year old son
and the carpenter were precipitated thro
the floor of the barn and pinned among
the ruins. 1t is miraculous that they
were not killed. Brooks and Fletcher
were not seriously injured, while four of
the horses besides which they were stand
ing werekilled outright The other horse
was so badly injured that it had to be
killed. 1t is thought that the lives of
the colored men were saved by the death
Of the horses, as the timbers by falling
upon the animals were thus prevented
from striking the men.
Mr.. Stein was badly cut and bruised
and his little son had two ribs broken.

Grant and Elmer Fogle, of the vicinity
of Creagerstown, were arrestedby Officer
Brengle about one o'clock Sunday morn
ing on the charge of being drunk and

/. Stra sberger and Harry Shook who came
to his rescue, Officer Brengle would have
suffered severely. AS it was he was cut
about the eye where he was struck by
one of the men and his side was bruised
by coming in contact with the wheel Of

Mr.: Ernest Long Dead.
Young Farmer Found Lifeless
Along Public Road.

Mr.. Ernest Long, Oldest son of Mr..
and Mrs. Scott Long of Creagerstown,
was found dead along public road Tues
day afternoon about O'Clock by Mr..
Chester Weller of Thurmont.
Mr.. Long was hauling lime from the
Isanogle kilns south Of Catoctin Furnace
to his farm near Creagerstown, and was
making his last LOAD He left the kilns
by way of new road which intersects
the Creagerstown. Mr.. Weller, who
was peddling meat in that vicinity came
out lane directly opposite this new road.
Seeing something laying in the road ne
tied his horse and walking up, found the
body lifeless. He at once started for
help, the first person he met being asson
of MIR. John Hesson who was out looking
for the driver of team which had ar
rived at the Hesson farm shortly before.
These two men, with other assistance,
went to where Mr.. Long lay, put him in
the wagon and took him to the Hesson
home. This was done during downpour
of rain.
Word was sent to the young mans IA
Their and physician summoned. The
body was thoroughly examined and the
opinion given is that Mr.. Long fell from
his wagon due to stroke of apoplexy.
No bones were broken, several bruises
only showing on one hand and arm.
Mr.. Long was prominent young farm
er and liked by all who knew him! Sew
eral years ago he married Miss Florence
Weddle, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Curtis
