Storm S?r?pt Country.
More than &? p raons are reported
killed and n .ndreds more injured,
tome mortal.. oy a storm of tornado
intensity -Wh raged over Central,
Western. Southern and parts of Eastern
States last Friday. Property damage
will run well into the millions.
Definite advices have been received
accounting for at least 40 persons dead,
with reports from points temporarily
cut off from wire communication by
the storm adding hourly, to the list.
Reports from Alabama show the
v toss of life was heaviest in that State.
the number of dead there being already
definitely placed at 28, with additional
fatalities reported but not confirmed.
The town of Lower Peachtree was
practically wiped out.
Twelve are reported dead in Mississippi
v
Two are dead in Indiana, two in
Tennessee, iwo in Ohio, Atwo in New
York, one in Michigan and one in
. Louisiana.
HUNDREDS HURT.
Accompanying the death lists are
lists of injured totaling more than 200,
with additions coming in at brief intervals.
Coming np oat of the Southwest
early Friday morning just as
spring was ushered in, the storm
swept with startling suddenness diag
onaily across the country from northern
Texas to western Pennsylvania and
New York, and the Great Lakes.
Shifting winds of great violence,
accompanied in various sections by
now, sleet and hail, characterized the
storm, easily the most destructive of
frhe year and rarely equaled in the extent
of its sweep andj damage. Buildings
toppled be:'orethe blow in nearly
a dozen States and death lay all along
in its wake.
PROPERTY LOSS HEAVY.
The property loss wa3 heavy along
the storm's track. Besides demolishing
or unroofing buildings and felling
trees, t >e high winds, rain, hail and
??eet aid serious damage to early crops,
4 / according to reports from some of the
affected sections. Estimates of damage
to property from I idiaua and
Michigan aioae aggregated ?2,000,000,
about evenly divided between the two
States. Early reports of losses ranging
from >25,000 to ?500,000, or mor<-,
irom sections of toe storm region indicated
tha* t ie total would ie.ich
large figures.
Wires fell in all directions before
the blow. Not in many years has there
been such prostration of telegraph and
talephone service. Caieago was cutoff
for hours from communication with
points East. Only by devious routes
was connection fina'ly established.
Last night condition-, had improved ,
materially, but it will be several days j
feefore service is restored.
Railroad traffic was seriously delay- J

I The wiDd, which wiped out so much
property and cost so many lives, attained
record velocities at some points.
Figures given by the weather bureau
in Washington showed that at Detroit
ij reached 88 miles an hour, a new
high record in that city; 84 miles at
Toledo; 88 miles an hour at Buffalo;
Memphis 54 miles and Louisville 52
miles.
Cold weather is trailing the destructive
blow. The 9torm seem9 to have
spent it9 force and to be taking the
accustomed route of such disturbances
out the St. Lawrence valley.
The cyclone in this state was more
or less severe in some sections.
At Fort Mill J. J. Broom wa9 crushed
to death by a falling tree. A mule
belonging to W. W. Stewart was
killed and several houses on his plantation
were blown down.
Renews Talk of New Railway.
The authentic report that the Clinchfield
railway will erect freight terminals
at the Charleston wharves has
renewed interest in the matter of
another railroad line to Colombia, as
it is believed that the system's present
arrangements to nee the Southern and
A. C. L. lines to Charleston will be
followed eventually by a new railway
of its own. It is known that the
Clinchfield system had engineers in
the field several years ago, making a
preliminary survey from Spartanburg
to Columbia, and though the work
dii not proceed any farther than the
initial steps in construction, it is probable
that the data sheets were filed
away for future reference when the
officials decide to extend their present
lines which terminate at Spartanburg.
With the opening? of the Panama
canal and the making of Charleston a
port of call the importance of the
coaling wharves at Charleston is augmented
and it is likely that the ambitions
of the Clmchdeld people will in
crease with the ealargein3111 of busi
ness prospects. To own their.^own
lines from the coal fields of Kentucky
to the sea coast is a natural desire,
so it is believed by many people here
that the arrangements for bringiug
grains from Spartanburg to Charleston
are likely to be done away with
some time in the future, thus brightening
Columbia's prospects for another
railroad. The natural course
from Spartanburg to Charleston would
bring the line by way of Columbia, as
this plan off *rs a natural course that
engineers are usually quick to adopt
in order to established easy grades.?

The Wrong Blood, the Injured Wolf,

Economy, the Selfish Hunter and the

[Copyright. 1313. by Associated Literary
Press. J
A PEASANT took great pains to
sharpen up his Knife in anticipation
of an opportunity
to strike down a Doe which
came every day to drink at a certain
spring. As be crept through the forest
the Knife was accidentally thrust
into his own leg. Dancing around
with the pnin. and angered with the
sight of blood, the Peasant cried out:
"Base ingrate! You have stabbed me!"
"It is true that you have been stab- t
bed," replied the Knife, "but had you
not sharpened naj.for the purpose of
drawing blood talar would not have
happened."
Moral.?Lies and scandal sent out of
the kitchen may come back home
through the front door.
The Injured Wolf.
A Wolf had the misfortune to break
his leg, and. being unable to hunt for
his food, was soon reduced to the
verge of starvation. One day as be*

was uttering lamentations a Hare
came along and inquired the trouble. !
'1 am almost at the point of death!" |
was the reply. "I haven't had a morsel
to eat for days!"
"Indeed!" exclaimed the Hare. "I'll
go at once to the Hyena about It" j
When the Hyena was consulted he I
stroked his chin reflectively and finally I
said: '
"Are you certain he is a Wolf of
good morals?"
"No." j
"Well, then. I'd better see the Lion J
about it before we do anytmug." 1
The Lion beard the story, winked in I
a wise way and remarked: |
There ought to bb a committee ap- ]
pointed to investigate his character. '
I'll see the Stork and mention the matter."
The Stork was Informed that a Wolf
lay dying of starvation, and she replied:
1
"Well. well, but that's bad. I'll see the
Ox this very afternoon and have him
decide whether we ought to send in |
tracts or chicken broth."
The Ox was duly informed, and the
next day he walked over to see what ;
should be done in the case. Arriving
at the lair be found the Wolf dead, and
the Owl had already been there and
written on the rocks the

The Wolf and the Goose.
A Goose who was prowling through
the forest one day in search of prey
o6served a Wolf sitting on a limb of
a Tree and called out:
"Good morning, my Dear. You are
looking unusually well this morning."
"That's all Taffy!" replied the Wolf.
" Ton honor, but I'd give a thousand
dollars to have your complexion."
"Would you?"
"Indeed I would. And such eyes as
you have got! Yum. yum!"
"Do you really think so?" grinned
the pleased-Wolf.
"You bet! Why, if 1 had your form
I'd go on the stage and make my fortune."
* ~ - ? - iu
The Wolf put his linger in uis inouiu
and looked silly and felt flattered, and
the Goose licked her chops and continued:
"Please come down and let me take
the pattern of your coattails. Such a
graceful set 1 never saw in my travels."
The Wolf came down with his ears
working with delight and had only
reached the earth when the Goose
sprang upon him and chewed him into
dishcloths.
Moral.?Beware of the goose.
