Much Property Loss in Wake of Storm. Lake City, September 25:?A terrific wind-storm, with characteris- * tics of a tornado, swept through a narrow strip of territory just out of I.abo fitv nn \TnnHnv nicrhf nlov.

A mad lop: gave the people of Main street i bad scare Sunday afternoon. No>ody was bit,but several dogs were. Mr Willie Holman, who lives a ew miles from town was attacked )y a drunk man Saturday night and >everely handled. Although several stitches were necessary, none of the vounds were dangerous. The heavy rain of Monday will hrow the farmers behind with their :otton picking. It is reported that the town will ;oon have several new stores, one )eing a drug store.
