DEATH IN TORNADO
LAKE COUNTY BOY KILLED
THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS
WORTH OF PROPERTY
DESTROYED.

Killing a little boy and doing
many thousands OF dollars worth Of
damage to buildings and live stock, a
Windstorm yesterday morning ragged
from a point a few miles southeast of
Madison to the Iowa state line and a
considerable distance south and west
of Sioux Falls. Barns. sheds and
wen dwellings were reduced to the
semblance of kindling wood. and
hogs, cattle and chickens were killed
by flying debris. A share of the dam
age was suffered within the city of
Sioux Falls, although greater havoc
was played in outlying districts.
The child killed was the 1-year-old
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Peter Ottoson,
living about four and a half miles
southeast of the village of Chester,
and about twenty-five miles south
east of Madison.
Glenn Willard, of this city, who re-
turned from Chester this morning.
said it was reported that the little
boy was blown into a field, where his
body was discovered after a lengthy
search.
1t is said that all of the Ottoson
buildings were demolished. Mrs.
Ottoson and two children were in
their home when the storm struck, at
about Z o'clock in the morning. Al
though the house collapsed, Mrs. OF
toson and an older boy escaped with
only a few scratches. The O%ttosons
carried no insurance on their build
ings, it is said. A barn belonging TO
Frank Landers, a short distance from
the Ottoson place, was blown down.
A large, new barn just west Of
Chester, owned by Henry Hundemer,
of Madison, was struck by lightning.
The barn, four horses and sixteen
pigs were destroyed by fire. Several
corn cribs in the neighborhood were
blown down.
A number of persons in Madison
are Of the opinion that they saw the
wind clouds yesterday morning,
passing i'm a southerly direction, just
east Of the city. The strong wind
and electrical display which visited
this city yesterday morning, are
thought to have been the tailend OF
the tornado.

Sioux Falls, May Especial. A
sudden switch in the late returns and
revised reports from the outlying
polls in the First congressional dis

lead over Christopherson for United

new TRAIN SCHEDULE
PERSONS LEAVING TWIN CITIES
AFTER NOON NOW MAY
SPEND FOUR HOURS
LESS THERE.

Owing TO a change i'm the time of
the departure from Minneapolis and
st. Paul of the evening Twin City
Pacific Coast train OF the Milwaukee
railway, it is now necessary for mail
and express coming from the cities
to Madison and district to be deliv-
cred TO the stations there four hours
earlier in the day than formerly.
Also the change. which went into ef-
feet yesterday, makes it necessary
for persons bound from the Twin
cities to Madison and points between
here and Bristol TO entrain four
hours earlier.
The coast train, Columbian, which
formerly left St. Paul at $3.50 o'clock
i'm the evening, and Minneapolis
about an hour later. now departs
nearly one hour later than formerly,
with the result that it does not ar
rive at Bristol, where connections
heretofore were made with the S. G..
& ID. passenger train, which is due
here at 9:15 o'clock in the morning,
until 5:36 O'Clock i'm the morning.
Passengers. mail and express now
ammo ne tIdiHltiith ~ tht AldAA0Oh
bound train, which leaves Bristol at
$40 o'clock in the morning. twenty
six minutes before the arrival there
of the coast train. As a result il is
necessary for passengers, mail and
express for this district to be on
veyed on an earlier and slower train,
which departs from St. Paul at 4.45
o'clock in the afternoon and arrives
at Bristol at 3:31 o'clock in the
morning.
The change went into effect yes
terday, and owing TO a mistake in
routing from the Twin Cities, mail
and express which should have ar
rived here on yesterdays morning
train from the north, did not reach
this city until late yesterday.
