FIVE LIVES LOST IN
OKLAHOMA STORM
HOUSES DEMOLISHED WHEN THE
TWlsTER SWEEPS PATH
OF DESTRUCTION.
Walls Lifted by Wind and Occupants
OF Building Shook Out Upon
the Ground.--Many Have Mar
row Escapes From Death.

Muskogee, Okla.-At least five per-
sons are known to have been killed
and at least eight badly hurt in tor
nado which swept the countryside
north of Chelsea late Sunday.
Three miles north of Chelsea, Otis
Raglan, living with his three children
in a brick farm house, terrified by
the roar of the storms, gathered his
children about him and they huddled
together in corner of room, wait
ing for the tornado to strike. The
farm house was demolished. As the
walls were lifted the four fell outside
into the yard. Debris showered upon
them All were badly hurt.
Almost the entire population of
Chelsea watched the storm as it swept
it's path of destruction almost a mile
from the town.
Many narrow escapes are being re-
ported. Among those who weathered
the storm safely were Walter Suther-
land and eight friends, who were rid
ing in wagon with Sutherland when
they saw the storm approaching. Suth-
erland hitched his team to telephone
pone and the party ran few yards
ahead and fell face forward into a
ditch. The storm passed overhead
without injuring any of them. The
horses and wagon were carried away.
The storm, according to reports from
Chelsea, originated about one mile
north of that town and swept west
and north.
With exception of Madden, all of the
known dead are farmers who were
killed when their homes were de-
stroyed. Madden was riding horse
back along a country road when the
tornado struck him.
