Omaha, Neb., March 24.-With be-
tween 100 and 200 persons killed in
the tornado which licked its devastat-
ing way through the business district
last night, Omaha, stricken and
numb at the catastrophe, is city of
death today.
Hollow-eyed, sleepless, .hysterica,l
crazed with sorrow, thousands of
people are battling with militia men
and federal troops in an effort to
break through the lines guarding the
storm-swept district and search for
missing relatives, buried under a
mountain of debris.
Fire, which was quickly controlled,
for time threatened to wipe out the
city.
The known list of dead reaches 80.
Many of the dead taken from the
ruins have not been identified.
The city is a morgue and hospital.
Nearly every home within a radius
of ten miles of the stricken district is
caring for victims.
Undertaking parlors are places of
horror. Friends and relatives of the
people who lived in the path of the

small knots, begging officials for in

Hospitals are besieged by frantic
people demanding information re-

room in all hospitals in Omaha, South
Omaha and Council Bluffs are filled
to capacity. The slightly injured are
being placed on cots in Railways.
Ghouls carried on their fiendish
work all night, robbing bodies and
looting stores after the storm SUBJ
sided. U. S. trops and militia drove
the hooters away. No one is allowed
inside the lines without pass.
One hundred and seyenty-six tele-
phone girls were working at their
switchboards when the storm broke.
Every girl stuck to her post. In the
main building every window was
blown out, and the structure sway

them.

covered with blood and his face dis
figured almost beyong recognition.
He had been buried under brick
wall in one of the 24th-street build

nearly dead when dragged from the

Russell was delirious while lying on

Fire at Huron,

Huron.-A fire of unknown origin
broke out here in the Hansen meat
market, entirely cutting this building
and the upper story Of the City Ma
tional bank and the John Schneider
barber shop. The latter building was
SO seriously damaged that it cannot
be rebuilt and there was a great deal
of damage by steam, smoke and water
in the bank and barber shop. The
loss amounted to between $40, 900 and
$4,000 and was partly covered by in
The bank owned the build
ing it occupied, and Lieut.. Gov. L. L..
Abel, president of the bank, owned
the other two. 1t is announced that
as soon as possible a handsome new
building will be erected on the site
of the old one. Hans Hansen, the
proprietor of the meat market, and
his family occupied rooms over the
market, and Il was only with difficulty
that they escaped. The origin of the
fire is unknown. The blaze started
in the lower part of the market at
the rear end of the building.

ported that they were unable to agree

SURVEYORS AT WORK.
Cheyenne River Irrigation Project
Under Way.

Hot Springs,-State Engineer Derr
spent Saturday here after spending a
few days with the surveyors whom he
has in the field surveying the Chey-
enne river irrigation project. They
have found what seems to be a de-
cidely favorable reservoir site in Cas-
cade valley, just south OF Hot Springs,
which. by constructing a dam across
the "narrows," will hold sufficient wat
err to irrigate $4,000 acres of land
after it is filled, even though no more
water should empty into it for a year.
The dam under consideration will be
lao feet high and about 500 feet in
width. The perpendicular rocky banks
on either side will furnish stone for
the structure within easy access. This
dam would back water up the Chey-
enne river over fifteen miles and
would flood all of Cascade valley,
which has about 500 acres of beauti-
full irrigated farms. But the PROPOSE
ton would irrigate approximately 50,-
600 acres Of land with the finest kind
of soil, most of which is tributary to
Hot Springs. The engineers have not
completed a survey of the ditch and
lands, but are now engaged in that
work and when completed expect to
make a comprehensive report, such
as will enable the government or pri-
vate capital to determine whether the
proposition is feasible and desirable.

Experts rarely rely on signatures
alone to determine the authenticity Of
an old painting, but trust rather TO
their knowledge of the painters tech

is found in a conspicuous place, as

at Milan.

here for about two years past, has
just been asked for his resignation by
Postmaster General Burleson. Mr..
Yule is editor Of the local republican
paper, the Herald, and devotes part
