OF OMAHA STORM
a. A. VanOrsdel Writes His Parents
Giving Graphic Description of Re
cent Nebraska Cyclone.

One former Dallas resident who is
a resident of Omaha escaped unhurt
in the recent cyclone that laid waste
a large section of that city. Refer
ence is to R. A. VanOrsdel, son of J.
G. VanOrsdel, of this city, who is a
practicing attorney in Omaha. Mr..
VanOrsdel is well-known in Dallas
and many inquiries were made of his
parents regarding his welfare by
friends here following the first an
nouncement of the cyclone. In a let
ter to his parents R. A. says that he
was in Fremont, Nebraska, on the
day of the cyclone and thus escaped
it entirely He returned as soon as
he heard of the disaster and since
has been serving on the relief com
mittee with other prominent citizens
of the Nebraska metropolis.
His description of the storm as
written to his parents, is very graph
ie, and his account of the damage
done shows that almost complete rum
was wrought by the "devil cloud. "
Mr. VanOrsdel also sent a copy of
an extra edition of the Omaha Daily
Bee which is devoted almost entirely
to the story of the storm and incl
dents connected with it. As has al
ready been outlined in the news dis
patches, the cvclone cut a wide swath
through the most exclusive residence
district of the city as well as a sec
tion occupied by the poorer class,
but everywhere the ruin was COM
plete, although the largest loss of
life came in the latter district.

ing his sons birthday, then seven
teen years of age, Mr.. French noticed
dollar dated 1885, the date of bis

he received the identical dollar from
the station agent at Airlie in change
when he paid for a freight shipment.
Mr.. French had forgotten the dollar
long before coming to Oregon, but the
date attracted his attention and then
the initials were found. They are
still plainly visible. The coin was
presented to Mr.. French, Jr., and will
be preserved as a keepsake.-Inde-

HINT AT
SLATE OF
DEMOCRATS
Workers JOIted by Report
That DR.. Springer is to
Win Nomination
MOONEY SAYS HE
IN NOT CANDIDATE

Democratic politics were severly
iolted this morning when it became
known that the leaders of the party
in this city following the meeting in
the Democratic League headquarters
last evening formed a slate This,
according to rumors today, was on
the candidacy of Willard Springer for
Mayor, Representative Timothy j..
Mooney. for President Of Council,
and Samuel Slesinger for City
Treasurer.
This announcement caused con-
sternation at once, especially among
the Progressive members and several
declared that the states would not be
countenanced. It was pointed out by
those who opposed this combination
that the leaders in arranging the
slate had avoided being involved in
the fight for Assessor and Collector
of the Southern district and likewise
in the wards where several contests
are on for the councilmanic honors.
This announcement was somewhat
nullified. however, in the announce
ment that Representative Mooney
would not be a candidate for Presi-
dent Of City Council. II was also an
nounced that friends Of James C.
O'Neal, had mentioned him as a can
didate for president Of Council and
while efforts to see Mr.. O'Neal were
unavailing, it is thought he will be a
