STORM NEAR HOME

The storm that did so much dam
age to Tyler, also made havoc in the
part Of Brookings county. A
mile and one-half from Elkton it hit
the farm house of Daniel N. Bairey,
father of David Bairey of this city,
and wiped the house, barn and gran
airy completely out. The family were
at supper and all blown in different
directions. All received bruises and
hurts and Mr.. Bairey was so badly
injured that he died Thursday evening
in Elkton, where he had been taken
for a r He suffered intensely up to
the time of death. At the farm Of M.
+. Weber, about q. half mile farther
east, the father and son were both in
jured and a big barn blown to splin-
tiers. Three miles east Of Elkton the
barn and granary of Clarence Roth.
fork were destroyed and trees blown
everywhere. This house was sur
rounded by a splendid grove that is
now a wreck. A school house just
east of this last named place was
turned around on the foundation. AS
it went on east into Minnesota the
damage continued in spots, farm build
ings all along the line Of it's path be-
ing more or less damaged. Grain was
swept out of the fields and in places
piled up along the right of way of the
railroad. Even in it's incipiency, as it
appeared to be around Elkton, the
freakish actions of the storm stamped
it as a regular cyclone of history. A
barn was demolished and a colt tied
to a manger was found two hundred
feet away, the colt and manger un-
harmed and the hay still there for the
to feed on. This is the worst
wind storm of the kind that has hap
pened in this part Of the northwest
since the hat circled round Pipe

WEDNESDAY MORNING BLOW

Early on Wednesday morning, about
4:30, a wind, rain and hail storm of
some pretentions struck the city and
danced around and back and forth for
about a half hour or more. The hail
stones were of good size, and the
wind was pretty strong. The north

window. The awnings at the Corner

reported from any Of the surrounding

BUSINESS WOMAN RESIGNS

Miss Laura Irish, who has been the
bookkeeper and Office manager of the
firm Of A. L. Davis &-Co. for some
years past, has resigned her position
and left last evening for Minneapolis,
where it is rumored that she will en-
gage in business for herself. Miss
Irish has been the main stay of the
Davis firm and her ability and good
judgment have made her very valu-
able to them. She formed quite a
circle of friends in the city and com
munity in a social, as we'll as a BUSH
ness way and they all greatly regret
that she deems it best to leave Brook
ings for other fields of ~endeavor. Miss
Irish is a lady of business ability as
we'll as being a woman of character,
refinement and education, and she will
be successful in any line of business
she may enter and this will always be
the sincere wish of her many friends.
