SALARY BILL IS PASSED
 BY SENATE TODAY
(Continued from First Page.)

The minority of the judiciary com ! mittee favored Judge John H. Barnes. | AS the resolution for the latter orig i mated in the house the senate adopt l ed only the resolution for MT. Lib bey. Mir. Buckley speaking first re- I ferred to MT. Libbey's personality. ! MT. Darbie claimed that no convinc-
 ing facts were advanced why Judge Barnes should not be returned and no valid reason given before the com l mittee why Mir. Lbbey should re- place him. He recounted the details of controversies which were brought out in tho committee hearing. Mir. Barry of Griswold spoke in behalf of Judge Barnes, as did MT. Pendleton of Norwich. MT. Rogers of Litchfield, for friendships sake spoke in behalf of Judge Barnes and Representative Williamson of Darien added a word for the judge.
 There were several other speakers. including Representative Thompson of Norwich who spoke against Judge Barnes saying among other things that the latter was temperamentally unfit to be court judge" He re-
 ferred to an incident that occurred in the Norwich court as the "rawest thing I ever saw pulled off in a court" This incident was described as political harangue for the ben eft of roomful of strike-breakers." Mir Thompson went into details of many cases in Judge Barnes court and claimed that sentiment in Nor wich was against him. In conclusion he said:
 'If you infiict any more of Judge
 Barnes on the city of Norwich you do us a great injustice
 
 ing that the majority of the conn mittee believed it was making the best of the situation by recommending Mir. Libbey. A rising vote on the question of indefinite postponement on the Libbey resolution showed it to be lost 123 to 99. The Libbey resolution was adopted in concur renee. There were many nays but division was not demanded.

BIG FIRE IN STONINGTON
Damage to Extent of $50, ,000 Done to Potter BIcok on Water Street. Interior Utterly Gutted.

Stonington, June 7.-Damage that will probably amount to at least $50, ,000 was caused by fire late last night to the Potter block on Water street and the Muller block on Pearl street. The blaze, the origin of which has not been learned, started in the areaway between the rear of the two buildings. When the fire men arrived both buildings were a mass of flames from the cellar to the roof in the rear and the flames were showing 25 feet into the air abvoe the structures. Chief Engineer Edward T. Teed and Assistant Chief c. D. Main directed the firemen and soon had seven streams puring water on the burning structures. It was one of the hardest fires with which the local department has contended for years but the firemen fought it in- telligently and after a long battle suc- feeded in getting it under control. The roof of the community house and that of Charles F. Ryan's residence caught fire but were extinguished without serious damage.
 When the blaze was finally subdued 1t was discovered that the interior of both buildings had been burned out and the contents ruined.

TERRIFIC CYCLONE COMPLETELY DESTROYS
PROSPEROUS town Of BRAXTON

One who has not visited Brax-
ton can have no idea of the de-
struction wrought by the awful
cyclone that swept over the town
on Tuesday evening, April &c.
The mind cannot be brought to
comprehend the great damage
done till it gets a mental impress
ion, birds eye view of the enor-
nous loss of property, beholds the
bodies of the dead, and looks upon
the distorted features of those
suffering from injuries sustained
during the terrible storm which
wiped out dozen lives, seriously
wounded double that number, and
injured many more.
The picture is so vast, the pro-
portions so great, the vista so
large, the prospect so extensive,
the panorama so staggering, so ap-
palling, that one must needs take
counsel with himself, and consider
long and well before he can real
ize the awful work of destruction
that presents itself to his distort-
ed vision.
There on gently sloping hill

"a half mile or more in length, look

ing up from the west side of the
Gulf and Ship Island Railroad,
from the fringe Of shading oaks,
the pleasure ground of the place,
where picnics were given and pub
lie speeches delivered, lay Brax-
ton, with it's inviting churches, its
spacious school houses, it's broad
stores and comfortable residences.
That was Braxton, and cheer
full picture it was-a social town,
where people delighted to live; a
business place where merchants
prospered, with credit A No. 1, and
where mercantile failures were
unknown, and 100 per cent eff
cheney the rule.
! A Sad Picture.
But the picture was blurred by
Tuesdays cyclone, beyond recog-
nition.
The beautiful town exists no
more. 1t has been entirely wiped
out Of existence, and what was a
lovely scene 48 hours ago is now
"a mass of debris. Not a store is
standing, not a home remains in
tact within the corporate limits of
the place
The Brandon news. (Brandon, Miss.) 1892-1961, 1921-04-28

Every store house of what was
Braxton, has been leveled to the
ground; every church and school
house blown away, every residence
destroyed or injured.
The hillside is covered with de-
bris, with broken, splintered lum-
ber covering broad acres that had
formed the homes and houses of
the place.
All the trees have been blown
down, or twisted and skinned so
badly that they have the appear
ance of dead timber of the forests,
many stripped of bark from top to
bottom and denuded Of foliage.
What was the main street Of the
town is obscured by the wreckage
iOf the storm; and on every hand
are piles of dry goods. piece goods.
groceries, farming implements,
scattered furniture, household eff
fects, and fragments of every con-
ceivable kind of merchandise.
There they lie as the cyclone left
them, as it tore through the town,
in it's wake of death and destruc-
tion. They are taking the wealth
er, as there are no tarpaulins to
cover them and the insurance men
are not interested in the salvage,
as little cyclone insurance was
carried.
On the brow of the hill the tops
lof the Red Cross tents may be
seen, and the activity shown % re-
minds one of the active days of
war-where these ministers of
mercy are going hither and thith-
er seeking to do good to the dis
treSSed and afflicted.
Not more than a dozen tents
have been stretched. when three
times that number is needed to
care for the homeless; and the
storing of the little effects res
lcued from the ravageS of the storm
demon, for between forty and fif-
ty homes have been wrecked and
! others made uninhabitable.

The National Guard.

The officers tent Of the National
Guard. occuuied by Major Dulin
and Capt. Jaap, occupies a COM
manding place at the head of
Main street on the west side of
the railroad, while the tents of
the other officers and members of
the company are grouped nearby.
They have their kitchens and 9th
er necessary camp outfits, and all
the requirements of an army unit.
and the camp has q decided sol-
dier-like appearance. Offers and
men are assigned to regular duty,
and stand their watch day and
night, protecting the exposed
property. 1t was B wise act on
the part Of the Governor to order
Capt. JaaD's company to BraxtOn,
and the members will do their du-
ty like soldiers and give a good
account of themselves.
The loss by destruction of
stores and residences is estimated
at $150.0O0, while the calue of
stocks Of goods destroyed is placed
at $4,000.
The Casualties.
The list Of the dead had reached
ten yesterday, as follows, and It is
expected that several of the
wounded will also die:

night, till almost exhausted.
The sheriff of Simpson county,
acting in connection with town Of
ficials. and members Of the Ma
tioanl Guard. are policing the
place, seeing that the exposed
goods are not molested or stolen.
Shacks to Be Erected.
AS the federal government has
declined or neglected to send Suffi-
cient tents to house the homeless,
though Governor Russell and Ad-
jutant General Scales have made
earnest appeals for tents, for
which they are entitled to the
thanks of the public, Major G. l..
Dulin, ranking officer in charge of
the National Guards doing ser
vice at Braxton, assisted by Capt.
|C. @. Jaap, Jr., in command of his
company, has issued orders for the
erection Of shachS Ia by 16, the
work to commence today, under
| the supervision of John Pierce.
Such material as can be saved
from the wreck will be used, and
other lumber will be purchased.
These temporary homes will be
rushed to completion, and the cit
izens Of the town will assist in
Their construction.
Miraculous Escapes.
Many miraculous escapes from
death are recorded. DR.. "A. G.
Norman, in charge Of the medi-
lcal relief work, was at home when
1.-THE cyclone struck, and had only
lGime to force his wife and four
children outside their home when
his residence collapsed, and the
debris was flying all around the
family; and strange to say, not
one member received q scratch.
Nine people were in the Everett
Hotel, two being sick, when the
storm unroofed and carried away
Its walls. They did not even have
time to run into the yard. and no
lone was hurt. How they escaped,
view Of the fact that the hotel
is q two story building, is one Of
/ the wonders az that fatal day.
Other escapes equally marvel-
GUS are reported. Families were
blown from their homes. and in
many cases sustained no Serious
harm.
All the merchants. with few ex-
ceptiOns, were caught IN their
stores, and it is Gods wonder
that al were not killed.

MADE NO SORT OF A HIT
Young Mans Christmas Present to
Girl Was, to Say the Least,
Somewhat Inappropriate.

a certain young man Of Frankfort
did his Christmas shopping early this
year, profiting from last years expe-
rience when, he says, he was prince
of the .givers of inappropriate Christ
mas presents.
Christmas time last year found him
in a western army camp. He had
thought little of Christmas until va
riGus packages for him arrived.
Among these was present from a
young woman, who lived ln a southern
city. With only few days left. and
very limited field for shopping, he
began his Christmas buying.
Fortunately, the Indians were offer
ing some pretty wares, and he did
some hurried buying. Finally, with a
smile of satisfaction and a sigh of
relief, he mailed his last parcel at the
post Office.
His satisfaction soon changed to
CONSERVATION when suddenly he re-
pembered that the young woman had
been forced to have a leg amputated
and, naturally, was very sensitive con-
corning her misfortune.
He had sent her a pair of beaded
occasins.-Indianapo News.

City Now Immune From Storm.

The existence of the great sea wall
at Galveston, which recently saved
the city from another of the great
storm disasters, will be completed the
coming summer, according to the en-
Eineers In charge Of the work. More
than 5000 feet already have been con-
structed and 1,200 feet more remain
to be built. The cost Of $1,5OO,OOO
will be borne by the government.
After the terrible storm Of 1900, In
which hundreds Of lives were lost and
damage to the extent of millions of
dollars was done, the original. sea wall
was built at cost Of $2,OOO,OOO. The
new extension Is expected to
strengthen greatly the seaport, which
is an island with only a sand founda-
tion. After the great storm, In one
Of the greatest engineering feats on
record, the entire city was raised 20
