A dispatch from New Orlem s under
date of April 27 says with about
?,2r> newly made graves disherited
hroadeast over nearly i.lie entire vidtli
of Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama,
the dead In Friday's toi undoes

to sav that the death list
in those States would not exceed 3f>0.
Tlio fow who may ho added to this
fatalities are possibly a score of tho
200 most seriously wounded in hospitals
throughout the Stales. Tho remaining
injured number about 1,000
wore reported on the road to recovery.
The gravity of the situation centered
in tho problems of the living,
namely, hunger and shelter. At least
one stricken town was reported to
have eaten literally its last meal at.
that time and was relying on charity
for its supper. Fortunately, the great
territory over which the stricken districts
were scattered left an opportunity
for the unharmed neighbors interspersed
everywhere throughout
these centres of want to furnish relief |
more quickly and effectively than
would have been possible had the disaster
been confined to one place.
Cities, little and big, on all sides of
the tornado hell made rapid prej>arations
to ship supplies and men into
the tornado districts. New Orleans
started a money subscription and also
shipped food to Amite, the worst
damaged town in that State.
Amite was the town which reported
its food supply practically exhausted*
Otherwise tin? little town was making
rapid progress tov. aid rehabilitation,
the primary feature of the restoration
being the opening of streets by
ragging trees, roofs and other wreckage
off roadways. The churches, ev- <
ei y one of which w as wrecked were
among the lirst cditices to rise in
he form of temporary pavilions above
the ruins.
At Purvis, Miss., cook stoves were
about the most valuable assets in the
community. A few of them had beep.

the direction of the authorities
their usp was loaned first to one family
and then to another. Purvis was *
one of the few communities still report

country, some of them in a desperato
state from laek of care. These unfortunates
were made sis comfortable

T W. Dsivis, is i neharge of the relief
work at Purvis, said ?n descirhing the
Htuatlon:
"What we will do largely depends
upon whsit is done for us. We ourselves
have no resources. The debris
must lie cleared siway, the dead stock
removed, the injured cared for. Wo
have put on si small froce of workers,
hut will not be silde to continue them
