TORNADO WHIPPED
in WEST FLORIDA

Tornadoes followed in the wake of
the hurricane which struck Pensa-
! cola, and number of towns in West
Florida suffered from the cyclones,
according to Allison Brewery of the
American Tobacco Company, who ar
rived in the city yesterday from
Milton.
Mr.. Brewer stated that when he
left Panama City Thursday morning,
the tide was rising rapidly, and the
weather was very threatening. From
Panama City he went to Mariana,
and said that a tornado struck be-
tween Mariana and Greenwood. a
small town to the West Of Mariana,
but that practically no damage was
seen.
At other points Mr.. Brewer said
that the path Of tornadoes were seen
through the woods but that in no
place did there appear to be any
damage. The stretch between De-
Funiak and Crestview, and slight
distance on the side Of both towns was
not injured, and there was practical

PASSENGER WALKED
HERE FROM Mill TON

A. J. Davis Of New Orleans, who
has been visiting his father at Chip
ley, was one Of the passengers on
No. 2, which was marooned at Milton
Friday night when the railroad tracks
this side of Gull Point were washed
out. Mr.. Davis walked from Milton
and 'phoned for an auto from Gull
Point.
Mr.. Davis states that while the
wind blew strongly at Chipley and q
heavy rain fell no damage at all was
sustained. He said that he took sup
per at DeFuniak Springs Friday
night and met number Of friends on
the station platform and at the ho-
tel, and they all told him no damage
whatever had been done in DeFuniak
Springs.
He also states that the train
stopped for some time at Crestview,
where it was undecided whether to go
on further, and that there were no
indications whatever there Of any
storm, and those at the depot said
that nothing had been hurt.
From this it would appear that the
storm followed the course Of the riv-
ers and did most of its damage tn the
lumber lighters on Blackwater river.

What girl or woman hasn't heard
Of lemon juice to remove complexion

bring out the roses, the freshness and
the hidden beauty? But lemon juice
alone is acid, therefore irritating, and
should be mixed with orchard white

OF orchard white, then shake well and
you have q whole quarter pint of skin

strain the lemon juice so no pulp

will remain pure and fresh for

.BAYSHORE HOMES
vAR|OUSLY DAMAGED

Beyond broken windows, leaking
roofs, and undermined foundations
residences along the inshore of the
bay escaped with little damage dur
ing the high tides and winds of Fri
day.
At the Knowles residence at Har-
bourview water rose over the ten foot
breakwater, and inundated the lunch
room, which occupies wing of the
building on the ground floor about
forty feet from the breakwater. De-
spite the heavy pounding of the
waves, the breakwater withstood the
gale, and probably saved the hand
some residence from greater injury.
The Country Club just below Har-
bourview was slightly damaged by
broken windows, chimneys down, and
roof leaking, though the tennis courts
which lined the waters edge were al
most unframed.
The beautiful home of w. S. Key
ser, near Palmetto Beach suffered
severe damage to the tile roof, win
dows, and porches. Being further
back from the water, little damage
was done by the waves.

BRIDGE AT BACDAD
WAS DEMOLISHED

Another bridge which went down
before the storm, according to reports
from there yesterday, was the fine
steel one, spanning Pond Greek, and
which is the last bridge on the road
from Milton to Bagdad. This fine
structure was a complete wreck, and
will require weeks to replace, it is
thought. The county commission
ers, however, are working energetic
ally, endeavoring to arrive at some
plan to start the work right away.
