Barracks Prosperinq.

A stranger visited the young mems
Baraca bible class of the NJ. E. Sun
day school last Sunday and found a
real live bunch of just thirty young
men in attendance and discussing the
current Sunday school lesson. Mr.
w. w. Kitson was presiding as presi.
dent of the class, while Mr.. G. l..
Smith led the discussions. One was
especially impressed with the person
mel OF the class. From the best homes
of Denison they were young men of
character and ideas. That they were
live bunch of young men was evil
denced by the fact that seven of the
last years high school football team
were in the class. There is an en-
rollment of thirty-three members now
and they are making continuous
campaign for new members. A young
man does himself good turn by join
ing this class and spending an hour
each Sunday in the study of the bible.
Ex-County Supt. F. l.. Hoffman is the
live wire behind the class.

est homes in Omaha were completely
wiped off the face of the map and the
! costly furnishings were strewn fol
blocks around Beautiful and costly
oriental rugs were seen hanging from
the tops of trees by Denison people
who were in Omaha Monday viewing
the wreckage. The beautiful Joyslin
home in the vicinity of Fortieth and
Farnam sustained tremendous loss.
The beautiful grounds of the Joyslin
castle were damaged almost beyond
repair. Hundreds of families saw
their homes swept away or damaged
so greatly that they were rendered I'M
habitable and their occupants were
forced into the street during the ter
rifle rain which followed closely on
the heels Of the terrible storm.
After the storm fires broke out in
different parts of the city and as many
as twenty calls were received by the
Omaha fire department at the same
time. Fire apparatus from Council
Bluffs and nearby cities and villages
were rushed to the panic stricken city
and it was not long before the fires
were under control.
TO add to the horror of the night,
the electric lights failed, the wires
went down and not only the house
lights, but the street lamps were eX-
tinguished, leaving only the fitful
flicker of scores of lanterns and the
street gas lamps to light the rescue
parties in their work.

Hundreds Die I'm Flood Waters
Ohio and Indiana Reported Under WaerPrncpa Streets of
Dayton Covered With 40 Feet of Serging Flood.

From the east comes the report
that Dayton, o., has been flooded as
the result of the bursting of the big
dam north of Akron, O. The breaking
of this dam caused a rush of water OF
such proportion that it is leaving a
path of destruction in it's wake. 1t is
reported that Dayton is nothing less
than a seething river three miles wide
and a mile and half on each side
of the main street, and it is estimated
that from 1000 to 5000 have persisted
in the flood waters.
All telegraph wires are down in the
locality, but the following vast de-
struction is reported:
Dayton-Estimated 5000 lives lost.
Many large buildings destroyed and
city is in total darkness.
Hamilton, O.-Reported that 1000
persons are drowned.

that the storm was so disastrous at
| ication with them. A number put
| telephone calls in to Omaha, but were
informed by the local operators that
there were over two hundred calls
ahead of them that would have to re-
ceive attention. Up to this time we
have been unable to learn of a single
death or injury of any relative or
| friend of Denison people.
Victims Known Here.
Mr.. and Mrs. Joe Thomas, relatives
of Mr.. Charles Jones and Mrs. Wag-
ner, Of this city, suffered slight dam
age in their home. Mr.. and Mrs. Ed
Phelan, relatives of Mrs. D. o. John
son, Of this city, had windows blown
out and porches removed and suffered
the loss of a $4,000 automobile which
was stored in public garage in the
storm-swept district.
Charles Horn, formerly cashier of
the Arion State bank, sustained the
loss of new house, which was blown
to pieces. We understand that he
returned to Dow City, where his par
ents are living, yesterday.
Professor Rusmisel, formerly COLI
nected with the Denison Normal col
lege, had his house partly wrecked
in the storm.
Aid Offered to Omaha Refused.
The sympathy extended to Omaha
in its bereavement is expressed in the
hundreds of kilograms from other
cities, rendering not sympathy alone,
but money. Millions OF dollars are at
the command of Omaha if desired, but
we understand her heroic people will
depend upon their own resources to
furnish relief to those in distress
President Wilson, in behalf of the
nation, sent message of sympathy
and inquired what could be done to
help to relieve the situation. 1t was
a noble impulse that prompted other
cities to proffer aid to the victims
of the storm in Omaha, and it is a
heroic spirit which prompts city to
undertake to deal with a situation
without calling for outside aid.

Sixteen Hundred Homes Ruined
Tornado at Omaha Sunday Evening Kills
More Than l60 People. $50 People
Injured. Great Property Loss.

On last Sunday evening Omaha ex
perienced the worst tornado in the his
death of almost $50 persons as far as
can be learned. Sixteen hundred and
sixty-nine homes were wholly or par
TALLY demolished by this terrible tor
nado that left nothing but ruin in its
wake. The estimated loss of homes
is placed at 100000, while the loss
of merchandise and personal property
is placed as high. This terrible
catastrophe left nearly $500 people
homeless, these now being cared for
at the hotels and public buildings OF
the city.
The Omaha tornado was one of the
series of storms which struck this part
of the country Sunday evening. The
tornado's path through Omaha covered
a distance from four to six blocks
wide, extending from Gath and the
southern city limits on the southwest
to East Omaha and Carter Lake Oh

How the Storm Approached.
The storm was first noticed shortly
before 6 o'clock, approaching from the
southwest and coming toward the city
with the speed of an express train,
the roar of the hurting, twisting wind
could be heard long before the storm
struck, and people from the southern
portion of the city asserted that they
could hear the angry rumble of the
storm when it struck the village of
Ralston, which place was completely
destroyed. The vanguard of the storm
was huge fan shaped cloud dark and
lowered which gradually narrowed in
to funnel shaped cloud that dipped
earthward, and wherever it struck
left wake of death, injuries and
wrecked homes. Almost all over the
city people stood and watched the
storm approach, even when in it's very
path, not knowing which way to go.

Euuene V. pebs Arrested.

Eugene V. Debs, Socialist candidate

the last election, was arrested in Terre
Haute, Ind, on an Indictment against
him in the federal court for the third
district of Kansas.
Debs was charged with obstructing
justice. The warrant was served in
Debs' Office, and he accompanied the
officers TO the office of United States
Commissioner Orph N. Hall, where he
furnished $1,000 bond for his appear
ance.
Debs wrote an expose of alleged con-
ditions in the Fort Leavenworth prison
for the Appeal to Reason, which caus-
ed a government investigation.
The matter printed in the Appeal
was considered improper by the fed
eral grand jury, and action was then
brought against the editors for sending
