TWICE A WEEK, $2.00 A YEAR FIVE LIVES LOST IN TORNADO DEATH AND DESTRUCTION INFT ICTFD ON WARRENVILLE Other Towns Also Suffer But in Only One is There Loss of Life. Death List May Grow The State. Aiken, March 7.?Sweeping down upon Warrenville in Horse Creek vali-? Ailrpn at 5 o'clock ley, sja uuitj _ this morning, a tornado wrought death and terrible destruction. Five persons were instantly killed, 18 to 20 wounded, some seriously if not fatally, and 25 houses were wrecked in the path of the terrific storm. Four of the dead are children. They are: Fred Hoover, 12; Dollie Mitchum, 8; TT7, 1 ? Wood. 2. LiUcms w uuU) ?*y imvuv.v , The fifth death was that of Mrs. Dellie Body, 19. The tornado, according1 to those ' 1 - V QV who passed tnrougn uxe ianuiC ^ perience, lasted for about 30 seconds. In this short space of time houses were laid flat, trees were uprooted, wreckage was strewn over a wide territory and instant death was dealt. The tornado struck first to the southeast of the mill at Warronville, destroying all of the dozen houses an this row of the mill village except cne. From here it jumped, striking next at what is called Stump Row, taking one house and leaving another practically untouched. Then, cutting a path across an open field, it struck with terrific force at Stiefeltown, a quarter of a mile away, destroying four houses at this place. Family Under Wreckage Henry Woods, a mill operative, was asleep in his house at Warrenville with his family. The house was a total wreck, only the flooring: being left beneath the wreckage. Woods wife wprp found, the man was aau iiw t? *av .. w. / badly hurt, a splinter having been driven deep into his head. Mrs. Woods was perhaps fatally injured. The chimney falling had buried the Woods baby beneath a pile of bricks. There were many remarkable escapes at Stiefeitown. The home of Frank Stiefel was blown down upon vi*? ? him, the structure cramming up imca pasteboard box caught in a vise. Mr. Stiefel was dug out of the wreckage and was found to have been left without a scratch. At the same placc the home of Mrs. Beard, postmistress at Warrer. ville, was almost totally destroyed. Mrs. Beard was unhurt, es' l:? * capmg witn ner enure ?au.uj. Relief parties were quickly formed and physicians summoned from Aiken and Augusta arrived on the scene be fore daybreak. In the early light of the rainy morning the work of rescuing the injured was begun. A temporary hospital was establised on the second floor of a store opposite the mill at Warrenville. To the morgue the dead were carried. Crowds began to gather and the homeless were given such aid as possible. Many of these have lost all their household effccts and are without food or clothing. One house, a large square structure, which was in the path of the tornado. was left unscathed except for one side having been blown out as completely as if the fourth wall had never been built- Not a thing in the house was disturbed. To Aiken Hospital The most seriously injured were "brought to the Aiken hospital in ambulances. Some of these will probably die. All of the victims were white. Those in trie nospuai are; Harry Munday, Mrs. Josie Hardy, Mrs. Wood, Mrs. Clark, who is unconscious; Rufus Munday, Owen Wood and Mr. Green. At Lang-ley the storm did a great deal of damage, but there was not loss fVin OoYifie-f />VmTvVt nn Ui llitr. X Jic uauuci v. roofed and pans of the Langley company's barn and stables torn up. A few houses were slightly dislodged. Hundreds of large trees were unrooted. Several mules stabled a: Stiefeltown and belonging to Aiken county were killed. The Aiken chapter of the American Red Cross has been placed in charge of the emergency relief work, under the direction of Miss Asrnes Campbell, Red Cross nurse, and the mill company is providing- temporary relief for the sufferers as generously as pos EARLY MORNING FIRE IN I PROSPEROUS PROSPERITY I Prosperity, March 9.?Early Tues-J day morning about 5 o'clock, J. B.! Black, general merchandise, Amick shoe shop, City Cafe, and Jones' bar-' ber shop were totally destroyed by fire. The four brick buildings located on Main street were owned by W.. A. Moseley of Jacksonville, Fla. The citizens responded promptly to the alarm but the fiames had made I such headway that it was impossible ! despite the desperate efforts made and the heavy down pour of rain, to save the buildings. The origin of the fire is unknown. The loss is around $10,000 with partial insurance. -Or. Much Interest in Local Talent Show Indications are that a full house will greet the appearance of SnowWhite and the Seven Dwarfs at the opera house Friday evening when -the curtain rises at 8:30.

Mrs. Adair was severely hurt by the accident, having had an arm and a lower limb pinned in the door of the transfer and sustained other injuries about her head and body by the violoTif fall airainst the front and side ! of the car. However, no bones were ( broken. Messrs. Adair and Williams j received slight bruises about their j faces. Dr. Frank Mower was called I and attended the injured lady, who was taken home. The collision was purely accidental and unavoidable. It happened at a place where it is difficult for a driver j of one car to see the approach of an: other, especially in the rain. There I is no blame to be attached to anyone, i The transfer was on the right side I and Mr. Boyleston was within his j rights in turning to the filling station, j It was only one of those unfortunate occurrences, liable to happen to drivers at such a place and on such a night.
