Southern Minnesota Shaken Up as
She Never Wus Before. i
Many Buildings Wrecked and Lives Lost. Houses
Churches, Trees, Sheds and. Business Blocks
All go Down Béfore the Terrific Wind Storm—
A Teacher and Fifteen Scholars Killed in
School House—Terrible Heavenly Bembard-
ment at Chicago. ?
MANKATO, Minn,, June 17.—One of
the worst disasters that ever visited
Southern Minnesota, occurred Wednes-
jay. The terrible funnel-shaped tor-
nado again stalked abroad over the land
and laid waste scores 'of happy homes
and sent forty or fifty souls to eternity.
‘Every report that comes in is worse
than the preceeding one. The extent of
the country swept by the awful visita-
' tion is greater than ever before known
in the history of the state, and fortunate
indeed it is that no town or village lay
in its destructive course. Starting near
Jackson, on the Southern Minnesota di-
vision of the Chicago, Milwaukee and
St. Paul railroad, a funnel-shaded cloud
swept eastward and passed four miles
south of Minnesota lake; then it took a
broad circle tothe south and passed
away south of "Wells.|
TEACHER AND SCHOLARS KILLED.
Considerable rain had followed dur-
ing the afternoon, and about 5 o’clock
the atmosphere became almost suffo-
cating. Curious shaped clouds appeared
in the southwest, and many people
gazed in ‘wonder at the sight. About
5:30 the wind sprung up, and off to the
west a rapidly circling black cloud was
seen rapidly advancing and tearing
asunder . éverything in its course. It
passed two miles northwest of Sher-
burne, and it’ is reported - that it then
struck the district school'house, in ‘which
was the teacher (and eighteen scholars.
The building was demolished and the
teacher and fifteen scholars killed.
At Easton three buildings were de-
stroyed and several people were injured.
Lindon was visited and many houses
were torn from their foundations. One
‘family, composed of a man, his wife
and child were killed and. others in-
jured. A ‘large do of ‘trees were
completely uprooted. :
The storm passed on eastward, de-
stroying farm houses, barns, and in fact
everything in its path, At Wells side-
walks were overturned, store fronts
blown in and other damage done, Sev--
eral men were blown down by the force
of the wind. = | :
Four miles south of Minnesota lake,
five farm houses and other buildings
were caughtin the storm and utterly
demolished. | Four people were killed.
The body of one of these, John Brown,
was tuken to Minnesota lake yesterday.
His ‘wife, a hired man and school
teacher were also injured. = Section men
suffered severe injury.
HEARTRENDING SCENES,
Many heartrending scenes occurred
during ibe night. The log house of the
Bohemian family at Bower Mills, near
Minnesota’ lake, was blown entirely
away, not one log remaining. The
family of a man, wife and six children,
spent the night miserably in the rain
without shelter from the elements.
"hey huddled together upon ‘a heap of
straw, and with a piece of a sheet en-
deavored to ward off the ‘cold wind and

The Saline Incrustation of the Famous Persian
Desert.
One of the natural curiosities of Asia
is the Great Salt Desert of Persia,
seventy miles South of Teheran. C.
E. Biddulyh, who recently visited this
place says that Darya i Namak isan
all sides toward the centre, covered
with an incrustation of solid salt sev-
eral feet thick in most places, whilein
some parts, it is of unknown depth. It
must have taken many centuries to
form. As he saw it from the moun-
tain top it stretched away for many
miles appearing like a vast frozen lake,
It extended as far as the eye could
reach toward the South and West and
glistened in the sun llke a sheet of
2 His party finally approached the
margin of the salt plain and decided
to cross it. | They tound swampy
ground for a mile or so and then entered
upon the sheet of salt’ itself. Near the
Jo the incrustatation was thin and the
salt sheet was sott, sloppy and mixed
with earth. Ata distance of three or
foiir miles from the edge the salt looked
like solid ice as it is seen onany pond
in Northern latitudes during the Win-
ter. The surface was not quite level
but resembled that of ice which had
‘partially thawed and then frozen again
after a slight’ fall of snow. Of the
‘solidity of this incrustation there could
‘be no doubt, for 'camels, horses and
mules were traveling over it without a
Jrauion of any kind being percepi-
e. ‘
After marching
upon this unusual surface the party
halted to examine its composition
They tried, by means of a hammer and
an iron tent peg, to break’ off a block
of salt to carry away asa specimen.
Thesalt however, was so very hard
that they could make no impression
upon it. They managed at last in an-
other place to chip off a lot of frag-
ments which were of the purest white-

plainly. Her grandmother tried the old

and my throat—I—I-—can’t swallow.
«T looked at her, and my heart stood
still. ‘She read my thought. “I know,’
she said, ‘I know but help me to be
calm until I get home.. I am holding
myself together by a supreme effort.
Help me and don’t be frightened. I’ve
felt this coming on for three days.’
“The hand she laid on my shoulder
trembled visibly ; she spoke with an ef-
never ceasing rain that chilled them to
the skin. . At Wells a section man re- |
ceived a terrible injury in the breast |
from a flying board. A brakeman who |
saw the storm at that place said he |
plainly saw the funnel approaching
from the west, and as it passed north of |
the village he was cast to the ground by |
the terrific pressure of the air, which
was 50 close that it almost stifled him.
It is impossible at present to get a list of |
the killed or wounded. Probably not less |
than a hundred wounded, and as they |
were mostly in the country, distant |
from wedical aid, their sufferings were
ter ible. All along the Chicago, Mil-
waukee and St. Paul railroad, from
Jackson to Minngiow lake, the scene is
one of devastation. Not every house is
taken, but so many are destroyed that
the scene ‘is. pitiful, This is one of the
richest sections of tiie state,and is pairie,
with now and then a wind ureak of
trees planted by the settlers.
MORE DEATHS REPORTED.
Superintendent Harling is in receipt |
of the following telegram dated at La- |
Crosse, coming via Mankato:
“Train No. 28, on the Mankato line
found obsiruetion on the track about
four miles south of Minnesota lake,
with two houses blown down and the
oc:upants. lying around badly injured.
They cleared up the track and picked up
the wounded and took them to Min-
nesola lake.’
Another reads :
“Train No. 23 is tied up at Minneso-
ta lake, and No. 24 at Mapleton. The
storm in that vicinity was very digas-
trous. Number 23 found a snow fence,
timber and other material on the track
and several people killed in the neich-
borhvod. © Many were injured. | Our
Wells section gang is at Minnesota lake.
Three of them were injured, but not
seriously.”
A dispatch from Mapleton says : Ten
people are reported killed near here and
twenty injured. Six houses are eom-
pletely wrecked. The Brown family is
among the injured. The cyclone was
four miles south of the village.

Patti's Wonderful Castle.
The house in which Patti lives is one
of the most interesting homes. Craig-y-
Nos castle, as the songstress has chris-
tened it, is hidden away in the wild
hills of the Swansea valley of Wales.
1t would be one of the most inaccessible
spots imaginable were it not for a little
railway which runs within four miles of
it. In pleasant weather it would be
difficult to find a prettier bit of land-
scape, but in wet or wintry weather,
when storms sweep through the valley
and transform the tumbling little Tawy
river into a fuaming torrent, it is a good
place to keep away from. Patti's rea-
son for choosing a home there was a
good one. The peculiar moist atmos-
phere of the place snited her voice bet-
ter than any other locality she could
find on the English side of Dover straits.
Having « once i determined where she
would live, Patti began to build a home
consistent with her ample ideas of com-
fort and luxury.
The most remarkable’ thing about
Craig-y-Nos is that such an establish-
ment is to be found'in such a remote
part of the country. It 1s very much
as though Jay Gould had built his Irv-
ington palace in the heart of the Adi-
ronaacks instead of on the slope of the
Hudson river. In point of architectur-
al beauty or extent of acreage it would
be absurd to compare Craig-y-Nds with
any of the great ancestral estates of the
English aristocracy. The castle: takes
its name trom a huge, ‘ill shaped hill
called Craig of the Night. To get
around thjs hill and ; make her home
moderately accessible from the railway
station Patti spent $20,000, in building
aroad way. ¢ SEY

A Bit of Gold.
The **Unconsidered Trifle” Was Worth About
$120,000.
Frontier highwaymen would have
had a hard time wrestling with a'bit of
old which arrived here by Wells, Far-
go & Co’s Express a few days’ ago. It
came from the celebrated Harqua Hala
mine and was consigned to J. Hubbard
and J. B. Bowers, the owners of that
property, for coining at: thc United
States Mint. ; >
"When the employes at the Mint took
alook at it, was the biggest lump of
gold they had the unhappiness to come
in contact ‘with, seeing that it was 'in
‘one respect like macy: others, (being; not
their own. Eo
"It was of a somewhat conical shape
.and seemed tohave been ‘emptied out of
a gigantic slag pot, It did not belie its
‘looks, for that' was the way it ‘bad ‘been
shaped. It was the product of forty-five
days’s run at the Harqua Hala and the
tremendous bulk weighed 857% 'poands
avoirdupols and was; stated to, be of the
value of $120,000. i
"The thoughtful representatives ‘of the
owners of the big nugget telegrahed
from point to point as they progressed
with it from the mine, sixty milessouth-
west of Phenix, and announced; when
it. should arrive at ths next station.
This was in order to forstall' any ‘ambi-
ing highwaymen were thus kept exactly
posted as to when the gold might be ex-
pected, it also posted as to when the
gold might be expected, it also posted
the people in each town.

of bandits to carry it, off intact. and se-
chete, and had they stopped the caravan
