An unusually severe wind storm
passed over this section on SUNDAY
night and Monday. Damages both
great and small have been reported.
A number of roofs were either taken
off entirely or badly damaged, frail
buildings and several buildings in the
course of erection were RACED by the
storm. Trees were stripped of limbs.
telephone poles were broken off as
though they were pipe stems. In fact
the wind played havoc with anything
it wanted to toy. Sunday night some
people got up and dressed expecting
every moment to have their home
moved along and wanted to be in
readiness to go with 1t.
A local physician was called out at
O'Clock Monday morning and after
pulling out his buggy, turned to get
his horse. When he came out of the
stable with the animal the buggy had
started on its way toward the patient
and he had to mount the horse to
catch the buggy.
The most remarkable incident re-
ported was that of a mother with a
babe in her arms changing cars at
the Junction. A puff of wind caught
the lady's hat and as she sought to
save It with one hand, the child was
carried out of the other arm and roll
ed half across the station platform
as though it were a roll of cotton
batting. 1t was followed by the rat
out of her head, while the wind made
merry with her brown tresses. 1t re-
quired assistance to gather her be-
longipgs together and it is possible
that the train was slightly delayed.

similarly situated with respect to
China, There they learned some
thing of the civilization of China and
watched for an opportunity to obta"

the rebel leaders captured Peking.
Overtures were made to the Manchus
and their assistance invoked to re-

agreed with alacrity, marched into
the southern empire, recovered Pc
king and kept it, placing one of their
own royal family on the throne.
The Manchus treated their new
subjects as a conquered people and
imposed the burden of foreign garh-
sons and a new nobility. They intro

to perbetuate it as the speech of the
