TORNADO DOES
MUCH DAMAGE
MOON CREEK SECTION NEAR
MILES CITY SUFFERS con-
SIDERABLE LOSS BY WIND

Damage estimated at several thou
sand dollars was caused recently in
the Moon Greek community, rs miles
southwest of Miles City, when a
heavy wind that assumed proportions
Of a miniature tornado struck the
Orlander and Shindler farms, de-
~stroying outbuildings and wrecking
machinery and other equipment.
The heaviest damage was suffered
at the Emil Orlander place, it was re-
ported at Miles City. At this farm the
barn was completely destroyed, and
much damage done to other outbuild-
ings and equipment. Mr.. Orlander's
damage will probably reach fifteen
hundred or two thousand dollars.
At the Fred SCHNEIDER place a large
threShing machine was turned over BY
the wind, and other equipment and
buildings were damaged. Mr. SCHNEIDER
who was in Miles City a few days ago
stated that his damage would reach
five or six hundred dollars.
The wind was accompanied by g
heavy hail storm, covering a rather re-
stricted area, but of unusual s~everit,
where it hit.
No great amount of damage viii re-
suit from the hail, it is understood, a.
the grain was not Of sufficient heigh1
to make it susceptible to great dam
age. The heavy precipitation that &C.
companied the storm filled all the watel
holes and gave the ground the frs
good soaking in many months.

Nancy Opens the Door 80. A
By Alma and Paul ENerbe

Every time the door of the little
white house opened a stir went over
everybody. and Nancy's heart struck
against her side.
She shut her eyes and whispered
hardly moving her lips: Dear God
please don't let Mr.. Jim Sanderson die!
Pleased" She thought from what she
had noticed in church that the more
amens you said the likelier it was that
your prayer would be heard. She
added as many as she could before
Luella interrupted her.
Its Mr.. Rhodes" Luella said.
She opened her eyes and saw him
coming out of the house. He was the
Methodist preacher. He raised his
hand and she knew what he vas going
to say.
Jim Sanderson is dead" he said:
and all the men took of their hats,
She sat in the shade Of the black
walnut tree, close to the box hedge, at
the side Of the Sanderson house, and
waited. When the undertaken came
out and went away, she was going in
through the side door 10 the parlor
where Mr.. Jim Sanderson lay and
touch his hand, so that she would
never be afraid of a dead person again.
She had told Hannah and Luella
that she would wait and 60 home with
her father, and she had waited, and
her father had come out hurriedly with
the coroner and got into the phaeton
without seeing her, and as she stood
there and watched him drive away
thing to do. Probably all grown people
had done it at some time or other.
and that was the reason they weren't
afraid. She couldn't go on all her life
having 1t swing in the vines outside
her window and crawl beneath her
bed and swirl out at her like smoke
in every empty room every time any
body died.
And surely there could lever lie any
dead person it was easier 20 touch
than Mr.. Jim Sanderson, who had been
her friend. If she was so afraid sit
ting here where she could hear the
grasshoppers when they jumped up in
to the air and clacked their wings like
wooden things in the sunshine, and a
sparrow fussing to itself as it took a
dustbath in the street, with the air full
Of the smells Of box and rose gerani-
ums, she was sure to be more afraid
afterwards. She had better face the
thing in daylight while she had the
chance and be done with it. 1t would
be easier now than it would ever be
again.
The undertaken came out of the side
door, closed it gently behind him,
walked around the porch to the front,
talked to some one in a low tone and
went away.
She stood up, and her heart almost
knocked her down again. She went
trembling up to the walk and opened
the door and went in. She was cold
from head to foot.
