Chicago, Nov. ll.-Reports received
tonight tell of death and injury and
extensive property loss resulting from
cyclonic storms that ragged late today
in southern Wisconsin, Illinois, Mis-.
souri, and on the Great Lakes. The
tornadoes came between an abnormal
ly warm period in which heat pros
tration was reported in Chicago, and
a cold wave bearing sleet, snow and
rain.
At least eight persons are known
TO be dead, several dying. and scores
are injured and suffering from the
bitter cold, snow and sleet which de-
scended upon the shelterless homes

Southern Wisconsin was the hard

~ six of the seven deaths reported
occurred, and few miles away, at Mil

ruins of a stcrm.wrecked home.
In the Village of Virginia, near
Springfield, H., nearly every public
building was damaged, including
stores, churches and city property.
Many were injured in the swirl of
flying timbers, and some of these prob.
ably will die. In Iowa a fifty-de.

the pouring rain into driving sleet.
Property loss counted up rapidly in
the trail of the Wisconsin cyclone.

engagements this season under the
management of the Concert Direction

During the past summer, Madame
Wakefield sang at the National San
gerfest in Milwaukee, and it was
there that many of the German musi-
cal directors of the country heard her
and expressed a desire to engage her
for some concerts of their clubs. When
Madame Wakefield returned from re-
turned from the West, she sang at one
large concert in Atlantic City, and
since then has appeared in a number
of priavte affairs.
Madame Wakefield's singing of
German lieder, despite the fact that
she is a full-fledged American, has on
more than one occasion created the
greatest enthusiasm.-Musica Cour-

Writing on Wood.


Some persons who make a study OF
the subject are OF the opinion that the
first writing was upon thin pieces of
wood. From their convenience this
seems probable. Such boards were
used at an early period by the Greeks
and Romans and were frequently cov-
cred with wax. which was. of course.
more easily written upon than the bare
wood. Where wax was used errors
were readily erased by rubbing with
the blunt end Of the piece of metal
which served for a pen. To make the
writing more visible it appears that
some black substance was smeared
over the surface Of the white wax and
remained in the scratched marks.
