VIOLENT STORM. & Furfous Wind Arises When Least Expected, and Does Conshil- crable Damagoe in tho Citys Two Pleasure-Boats Laden with Peo- ple Upset in the Lake Oppo- site Lirooln Park, Houses Struck by Lightning, Chimneys Blown Down, Trees Uprooted, and Awnings and Signs Carried Away, A fow minutos aftor b5 o'clook lnst evening, whon the #ky was apparently ealm aud sorene, and putdoor Ohiongo wns onjoying itself with “wralks, and rides, aud cunning searchos after sur- ‘yoptitions Inger, a thunder-storm,” sccompaniod bya rain fall of roma rkablo violonco, burst over ‘thoolty from tho south, and in an inoredibly short wpaco of timo wrought a groat doal of misohiof. ¥ho rumbling of distant thundor and faint oloc~ + trio flashes procoded tho advanco of tho storm by o fow soconds, but, when the wind had ronched ts grontoat Lioight, tho posla woro loud, fro- quont, and startling, and the lightning blinding No its vividnesi, Tho strocts over which tho - storm passcd wers changed, 84 A by magio from dust to mud and water, and wero spoedily deserted by tho goyly-dressed serowds which thronged them. - Tho oxtromoly “violent wind laated but & fow minutes, but in ‘tlat short timo damago amounting to thousands ‘of dollars was dono. An unnsual phonomenon teccurred in conncetion with the storm, snd was ‘obeerved by o gontloman from his residence in the West Division, about half s mile from tho yivor, Ho first noticod tho rain driving from a lttle enst of south. Buddenly tho wind voored ‘with groat rapidity, ond blow for = Yow soconds from tho south af the rate of mnearly soventy-ive miles an hour. dt thon voored through tho west to o little onst {ot north, traversing at loast fivo-eighths of tho Aciroumferenco of o clrclo in o timo cstimatod to “bo not moro than fiftoon soconds. Thin showed jthat the storm-contre was traveling from south- “west to northonst, and passed porhaps but a fow Jords to tho morthwost of where tho observer ‘stood. Tho casualtics roported thus far are as fol- lowa: A large dorrick standing in front of No. 168 Afadison stroet was blown down, and in its fall it orushed through a lemonado-stand, leaving mot ono board above another. Two or three porsons who wora running along tho streat, with forms bowed to tho blast, narrowly escaped the fato of tho lemonade-stand. . Another dorrick at the corner of Eric and North Olark streots was toppled over by the forco of the wind, and broke in two from ita own woight. A stroct-cor and several pedostrisng wore just close onough to tho falling mass to miss it. A A portion of the sldownalk at the northwest <orner of Erio and Clark streets was lifted up and the planks ecattered around without rogard o picturasquo offact. North Clark stroct, and every other buainoss strect in tho city for thnt malter, presents an ovor changing view of ruined awnings aud over- turned sidewalk signa, Sovoral windows at the corners of Halsted and Madison and Greon and Madison wore blown in, and the awninga that shadod thiom carried off, ‘Badly twisted awning irons demonstrate the force of the wind which struck thoso pointa. The storm is roported to have boen furious on Chicago avenue, between Bangamon and Greon stroots. A horso and buggy in that vicinity was blown over. Tho vohiclo was domolished, and tho occupants, a man and woman, wero severely injured. A small framo houso on the corner of ‘Chicngo avenue and Fifth stroct was struck by o iece of sidewalk which Liad boen torn up noar {;y, and n portion of the \rp‘rot story waa crushed through.* A woman inside was struck by a picco of timbor and stunned. A number of fiuo trees at tho north end of Lincoln Park woro nprooted and badly broken. It is foared that thoir torm of usofullucss has expired, % A _tall chimnoy on Bt. Carolino’s Court Hotel was blown into the court in the southern ond of tho bullding, and the largo awning which covered “the court and protected guesta of tho houso from the weathor whilo they ployed croquet or lounged 2round on the grass plats, was carriod off, no ono knows whithor. Tho strects in the vicinit; «of the hotel wore littered with limbs an ‘branches of trees. The now Swedish Church (the Rev. C. Knowles, pustor) on Sedgwick atroot, noar Chi- cago avenuo, was struck by lightning during the storm, The electric fluid ‘entored the building &4 the north gable, and ran along the comb of tho roof to tha south gable, whoro tho ourrent eeomed to soparate and run down to the ground by tho two corners. Tho matorial of tho bnild- ing is wood, and the main timbers wero not much domaged. Tho whole odifice was moved about six inchos, and almost turned over, and Tnd to bo propped up. The socioty expectod to oceupy it within o fow weecks. The damape to the building, although not very serious, will de- Toy tha timd'of occupylng somorwhat, The lightning aleo struck tho rear ond of Mo- Cormicl’s Hall, which is located on Olark streot, noar Kinzio. A small portion of the roof was rippod up, and soveral yards of brick knocked out of tho gablo, moking a holo which let in a considerablo quantity of water, The damago ean bo easily repaired The storm manifested iteclt most disastronsly 1n thouprooting of large shudo trecs, which have Dbeen plented since the fire, In the North sion, in the vicinitica of Doarborn and Mich~ igan stroets, and Market and Obio stroots, and siong Cass stroot, about twonty large tros, which woro planted early in the spring, and worostayod up by wire, woro uprooted, mony of them boing broken into splinters, and made only fit for fire-wood. On tho samo streots tolegraph- Lmlcu were blown down, whilo othors were struck oy lightning, In tho wake of the storm, on tho North Side, thero is much devastation, although fow housos were scriously injured. Bigne and awnivgs lay scattored everywhoro. Bidowalks wore overturned and torn to pleces. At the cor- ner of Markot and Obio stroets, ten foot of sido- walk was carried fzom ono_side of tho streot to the othior and placod standing, st tho squarost osition poesible, agninst tho front of a cottago onso, In the Wost Division tho most serious damago dono was tho blowing down of about thirty shade troes on Ashland avenuo, mostly located between Madigon and Jackson streots. ‘Those treos woro eot_out as an exporiment by Mr. 8. J. Walker and othors, being of & vory largo pizo at the timo thoy woro transplanted, 'hoy ornamented tho avenue very much, and it will presont a bare and naked apponranca without thom. Fortunately there aro not mouy of them go damaged but that they can bo roplanted with a good prospect of gaving thom, Last ovening tho storm had hlrd&’ subsided whon men wore atwork re- ‘planting and straighteving thom. A chimney on & small cottagoe houss on Honore street was blown down, bub oxcept making a ‘-imu)l holo in the roof mno other demsge was onc. T'he most serious accident of all, howovor, wna the copsizing of two plonsure yachts ladon with peoplo, which wera eailing in ‘the Inko o posito Lincoln Parlc and about a mile from tho shore.
