Chicago, Ill.-A terrific 'windstorm,
causing widespread destruction and
loss of life and practically wrecking
the already demoralized telegraphje
service, ragged over the Centrally est
and Middle-West States late Sunday.
Reports from Nebraska, Kansas, Iowa
and Indiana indicate heavy damage.
Omaha, Berlin, Ashland and Yutan,
Neb., the latter towns near Omaha;
Marshalltown, Ackley, Woodbine and
Carroll, Iowa; Terre Haute. Ind, and
Abilene, Kan, are places from which
scattering messages carrying the news
of grave destruction have been re-
ceived. The death list at Yutan was
placed at sixteen and the injured at
twenty
Terre Haute. Ind, suffered severe
ly Scores of persons were injured,
an unknown number were overwhelm-
ed in the ruins of houses blown down
by the wind and many fires We're
started in different paEa3 OF the city.
First reports from Nebraska were
that the towns visited by the storm
had been wiped out and thai the
wreckage was on fire Trains loaded
with rescuers. nurses and physicians
were struggling toward the scene, be-
ing compelled to feel their way with
out running orders, owing to paralysis
of the telegraph service.
The loss of life and property in
Iowa was less severe, according to
messages from the swept district.
Dust storms, rain, hail and tremend-
Gus electrical disturbances prevailed
over Kansas and Nebraska the greater
part OF the day. Where railroad serv-
ice was impossible motor cars were
pressed into service. and surgeons
and supplies were rushed TO the wreck
ed towns at the best speed possible
over the washed out roads.
Shortly after midnight Sunday the
storm reached Chicago. It's coming
was presaged by practically q total
failure of telegraph lines in all di-
rections. Reports of disaster in the
southern and central parts OF Illinois
could not be confirmed because OF the
impossibility of getting into comT6lini-
cation with the endangered cities.
Damage in Chicago was confined at
the storms first coming TO broken
windows, small buildings unroofed and
trees blown down.
"The condition of the wire service
indicates that a storm radiates from
Omaha a great distance in other direc-
tions." said a Western Union wire
chief. Wires are down between
Omaha and points north as far as St.
Paul, as well as in every other direc-
ton"
At 2 a. m (Monday virtually every
telegraph and telephone wire into the
offices of the telegraph companies and

since TIA" disastrous tornado of Easter
Sunday, the people OF Omaha Tues
day BEGAN to count thcir cost in lives
and dollars When q resume was

result were willing to admit.
No less than 2uo lives were snuffed
out in the vicinity of the city, and
fifty persons in surrounding towns
lost their lives Nearly 3oo were ~
jured. and eight Of these died in
local hospitals during The day.

snow fell, making uniuhabitablc the
houses of many who had prepared to
retain temporary homes i'm partly de-
stroycd structures. SO far as money
might relieve. conditions were perfect.
Tenders of sums agCrcgating million
dollars were i'm the hands OF the city
commissioners when the day ended.
The offers came from nearly every
section of the country. aud were made
unConditiOnally.
The greatest work Tuesday was
that of organizing a systematic relief
bureau, with seven branch stations,
in the territory covered by the tor
nado. These stretched over strip
seven miles long. and those in charge
handed out material assistance to all
cOmers who showed they were in need
of aid.
Bodies of dead and injured still lie
in the debris and wreckage, and
search by federal soldiers and anxious
relatives of possible victims continued
throughout the snOwstOrm. Some res
idents of the district declare Il their
belief that at least 100 bodies are
buried in the ruins of houses and
brick buildings of amusement places,
which are known to have been filled
with pleasureseekers on Easter Sun

CHAPTER XIII.
At the Verge Of tho Aperture.


The football Of the Black Seigneur,
near the guard-house of the dungeons,
was measured, yet noiseless, as he
stepped on the soft earth, alongside
the stone walk, now toward the pass
age in the direction of the wheel-room,
then back into the little square. That
his thoughts, however, moved not in
accord with that deliberate stride, the
brows impatiently knit, and the quick
chances he continued to cast over his
shoulder, bore testimony.
Stopping at length near the Tour
Bernard, he looked flxedly down at the
town, wrapped in stiffness that
should have treasured him. Never
theless he appeared not satisfied; and
had stepped out into the court again,
when some sound he heard, or fancied.
sent him quickly to an embrasure in
the wall. From this opening-for-
merly for cannon in defense of the
fenils, and the poulain, or planking for
the hosting Of goods-he leaned far
out, his glance instinctively turning
toward the barracks, some distance to
the right and far below. AS he stood
thus, that which had first attracted
his ateention-the sound of a voice
giving orders-was repeated; at the
same time where had been only dark
ness now shone many windows. while
to the left, near the entrance he had
passed after leaving the stable, lights
began to dance like firef1ies.
At these signs of activity and the
sounds breaking the general quietude,
an exclamation fell from his lips; then.
pausing only a moment to listen and
observe, he sprang toward the guard
house. Crossing the threshold, de-
fined by faint glimmer from a dis
tant corner, he made his way past sew
eral motionless forms, into a low pass
age beyond. Here he called out impa-
tiently; but from those depths, lead
ing down into the dungeons where his
comrades had gone, no answer was re-
turned. His voice, hollow, knocking,
seemed stifed in a tomb; more loud
ly he shouted; walked farther In, when
an indistinct response was followed by
pin-point of light, and, ere long, by

form now were more than a dozen
men assembled, but to jacques this
force looked multiplied. Amid the
confusion Of his thoughts, vaguely
could he hear orders given; caught
something about the need for quiet,
haste, overpowering the guard; then
saw the door open, and the men, like
shadows, go out; leaving him alone.

period; until family from afar sound

Roughly Jerked to his feet, between
them he walked to the door; heard 1t
close; stepped out into the night.
Many times had he made his way be-
tween wheel-room and guard-house,
but now the route seemed strange,
and, looking around near the struc-
lures at the entrance to his dungeons

scene did not change; the guard-house
remained-familiar; unlike, with I'M
known faces peering from it, and an
imperious voice issuing commands to
him, once unquestioned commander
here!
And comprehending what was being
said, he struck his breast violently;
with curses would have answered that
the keys were his own; the dungeons,
too, and what they held, and that he
would never lead them there; never
open these doors! But this grim, saw
age, determined band beat down his
arms, and his courage; and, with the
shadow of the grave again before
him, the dwarf walked on; past the
stable into the guard-house. where ia
miliar forms once had been seated,
and into the passage leading to the
dungeons beyond.
