To add to tlie general confusion and ({stress after the tornado had passed, Ire started and hurncd up all that re niiiued of the buildings in one of the justness blocks. The Mayor of Snyder has had much rouble arranging for the burial of no dead. The confusion was great, >wing to the fact that there wrre a lumber of unidentified bodies at the liorgues, There was much suffering nving to lack of provisions and places :o stay. What houses remain in the town were in bad condition and were insafe for habitation. Kef Ides there iv as not room enough to care for the loineless.

At 8 o'clock It .vas observed >.v the people of Snyder, but the usual 'uiinel-shaped formation was lacking, ind though the roar was plainly heard 'or sometime before the storm broke, mitiy were of the opinion that it was i hailstorm. Within a few minutes, .ho sky suddenly became dark and a rerrilic downpour of rain began, last ng for several minutes. Then the rain stopped almost as suddenly as it had started. For a few monreuts an ??i i? - nious calm followed, and then the tornado struck. .Many persons were caught in the streets ami between buildings, where some were lifted high in the air and lashed to the ground as (hough hurled from a catapult. Others were struck ??y Hying debris. Those who ivnuiined n their houses fared 110 better in the oath of tlio tornado, which swept 1 cross nil excepting a few blocks in the southeastern corner of the town.

Six hotels and boarfllng houses were torn to pieces, burying many in the ivrcekngc.v'NftrUi fit the railroad (rack, where many cottages stood, nothing was left, and even the wreckage was mostly carried away. In a few moments the tornado was nil over and the nil* was tilled with the shrieks of the Injured.

Able-bodied survivors in Snyder worked heroically all through the night amidst the heartrending scenes. A building was utilized for a temporary hospital and another as a morgue. The latter, a dry goods building, pivsentcd 1 gruesoni" appearance when day dawned with the bodies lying tier above tier oil the sher.es. The search for bodies continued all the day and at dark eighty live corpses had been re covered. The most pressing need was money. Organism tlon was perfected among the citizens and appeals were sent out to leading eltlzons of the territories ask ing for immediate assistance. Snyder is a town of about 1<KM> in habitants, in Kiowa County, in the Kiowa and Comanche Indian country. It was opened to the white settlement In 1001.

Many women long for a child to bless j their homes, but because of some do- j bllity or displacement of the female organs they are barren. Preparation for healthy maternity is accomplished by Lydia 10.

A woman who is in good physical condition transmits to her children the blessings of a good constitution. Is j not that au incentive to prepare for a healthy maternity ? If expectant mothers would fortify themselves with Lydia E. Pinkhaiusi Vegetable Compound, which for thirty years has sustained thousands of j women in this condition, there would be a great decrease In miscarriages, in I suffering, a?d in disappointments at birth.
