SOME CYCLONE
Up IN TEXAS
PANHANDLE
HOUSES WRECKED, MULES KILL
ED, CHICKENS PICKED, AND
CORN SHUCkEO - NO LIVES
WERE LOST.

Childress, Tex, April 22.-This
county was visited by a real cyclone
of destructive character Wednesday
afternoon about 4:30 o'clock. The
storm struck in the Garden Valley
community, some eighteen miles east
of Childress. Four houses were de.
stroyed, two belonging to Trimble
Bros, and two to w. T. Rix. 1t so
happened that in some of the homes
the occupants were away and in 9TH
er cases they went into the storm eel
lars. Very little was left of the
houses, most of the timber being en-
tirely swept away and the balance
broken into kindling wood.
Trimble Bros. lost four mules, two
being killed outright and two were
so badly injured by flying timbers
they can not live. In addition to
this damage much feed was lost on
the same farm The ear corn was
literally shucked by the twister and
all chickens had their feathers twist
ed from then, most of the fowls being
killed. One mule was blown a mile
but survived the experience.
Two houses about 200 yards apart
were blown together and both wreck
ed by the collision. both being moved
quite distance. One family took re-
fuge in a dugout, but were unable to
off by the tornado, but the people
came out unhurt.
The storm appeared to fall and rise
for a distance of several miles. af-
ter which nothing was heard of it.
