and electric railways that occasion was
afforded last night when tho town was in
darkness and through tho gloom tho electric
cars wended their way into and out of tho
town. Shenandoah lost its Identity com
pletely last night. A moro dreary and
desolate looking cloak never fell upon it
sinco the days of tho great conflagration.
Tho stroets wore deserted, a few stores wero
illuminated, hut only tho proprietors nnd
clerks were in them. When saloonkeepers
lock their doors at half past ten o'clock at
night thero must bo something wrong. In
fact more than ouo saloonkeeper closed up
before ten.
Tho night was a terrible ono. Tho storm
which had played haoo all day continued
with all its fury and tho one prayor of all
wa3 that tho flro fiend would not link arms
with it.
The storm was tho most severe that has
visited this section sinco tho great blizzard
and has been moro disastrous in many
respects. It has given this community a
idea of what a western town experiences
when a tornado strikes it.
Turkey Kun ! Poor Turkey Run on tho
hill! Sho did suffer yesterday. Ucr alti
tudo challenged tho winds and they accepted
moit demonstratively. There is a row of
houses in this patch owned by Messrs.
Morgan and Davenport. Eight of them are
roolless. The roof was transferred to the
yards yesterday afternoon and for hours after
tho occupants of tho houses wept as tho
merciless rain poured upon tho belongings
and forced the owners to seek shelter in tho
houses of neighbors. Letter Carrier Uoltnau
describes somo of tho scenes as pitiful in tho
extreme.
The house of Peter Holden was also do'
prl ?cd of its roof yesterday.
Tho daraago to property in town is very
extensive. Tho painters, carpenters, roofers
and other tradesmen will find much work be
foro them and property holders will find
many demands upon their purses.
Tho sourco of greatest anxiety last night
was tho Lithuanian church at tho corner of
Jardin and Cherry streets. Early in tho
evening Councilman Gable caused ropes to bo
stretched across tho streets near the structure
to prevent drivers aud pedestrians passing,
fearing that ornaments on tho towers, or tho
steeples themselves, might fall. And lost the
ropes might bo collided with in tho darkness
three Fpccial police wero put on duty at tho
approaches. The coudition of the steeples
was such that Mr. Itradlgan, the division
superintendent for tho P. & K. C. & I, Co.,
whose residenco is nearly opposito tho church,
took his family out of tho house yostcrday
afternoon and sougltt accommodations with
friends. Several other fauilllos in the neigh
borhood vacated their houses for tho night.
Members of the Borough Council have in
tiniatcd that should auythiug happen this
church by which a lo-construction should bo
made uecessary tho rebuilding will havo to
bo dono on better plans than tho present
structure is basod upon.
Tho l oof of a house on South Jardin street,
owned by James M. Morgan and occupied by
ex-policeman Williams, is minus its tin cov
ering. Ouo of the show windows of T. J. Urougli.
all's (tore on South Main street suffered.
A piece of window sash aud two panes of
gjas parted company with tho Evangelical
church at tho corner of Cherry and West
streets and was fouud somo dUtauce away ou
the former street.
A regular f ature is that notwitltttanding
all tho largo objects that was carried through
tho streets yesterday and last night no person
sustained injury.
The roof a house ou Poplar street owned
by John A. Lewis was taken off clean last
night. 1'artol It fell Into the stroet and the
rest went iuto tho yard.
A largo wagon sited couneotod with M. P.
Fowler's lumber aud feed warehouse, ueur the
Kehley Run base ball grounds, wa blown
down yesterday afternoon and several wagons j
and sleighs wero burled by the sides aud I
roof. I
The sign that stretched aerotg th pave-
went iu front of Mctiowau aho store on
East Centre street for aeveral yean went
down with the gale yeatorday.
A part of the high feuoo betweeu too Fer
guson and Davieu properties on Mouth Wliite
treat fell before tho gale.
Tue awinging jigus that left their fatten-
inga during the storm were too numerous to
be record ml.
In addiiiun to the fenoe on I'. J. Ferieoeou'a
South Whit street pioperty the lattiee work
on the houe waa badly damaged.
Moat of tho ornamental iron work on tho
roof of the Soumiiit building at 11 and 10

It is the Intention of tho editor of this
column to publish in it ovorything that may
tend to intlrest those who proposo visiting
tho Worlds Fair and at tho sanio time herald
the oxposuFb of any bogus schemes kid by
sharpers a&io hopo to prey upon such
prospective!; visitors. One fraud was un
earthed irf Chicago tho othor day. The
South Shore Cottago Company issued cir
culars settgig forth that it had in process of
erection 01m hundred cottages of four rooms
each, justfour blocks south of tho Exposition
grounds; tJiat tho cottages would havo a
sitting rooi, twelve by twelve, with folding
bed, and tlfree bed rooms with largo double
bods, sufficient for eight persons j that the
cottages vtalld bo furnished elaborately,
lighted wbauU&trieilywftnd-.to--cp4,ho
climax tho occupants would find a com
modious restaurant on tho grounds, Aoconi
rauying this description waj a circular
admonishing pooplo to engage rooms im
mediately by sending fifty per cent, in
advauce and agree to givo fifteen days' notico
when they wished to occupy cottages. Tho
piices wero fixed by tho ciicular at two
dollars per day for oach room.
If any japors havo snapped at this bait
tlioy havo been fooled. Tho AdctrtUers'
Gazette says that tho South Shore Company
lias no officers: that it has no cottagos in
course of construction; that the grounds re
ferred to aro owned by individuals, who deny
any knowledge of a hotel scheme; and that
tho authorities will prosecuto tho swiudlois.
