oJ THE EVENING STAR, THURSDAY,, OCTOBER 1, 1896’-fWELVE PAGES, RESULT OFTHESTORM Studying the Damage From the Big Blow. SOME NARROW ESCAPES REPORTED Reports of Disaster Come in From Surrounding Country. FORCE OF THE WIND There were many narrow escapes from serious injury during the storm of Tues- day night. Mr. C. W. Howard of the Fire- men’s Insurance Company, who resides at 447 C street northwest, was aroused by the noise and took his wife and five chil- dren down stairs. The devoted nurse girl, hearing the storm, left her apartment to look after the little ones. Just as she went out the door a chimney fell and breaking through the roof covere bed she had just left with a mass of brick and mortar. Mr. Hensey’s Experience. Mr. Alexander T. Hensey, who lives at Forest Glen, had a thriilg experience. His cottage there is surrounded by large trees, and during the height of the storm Tuesday night he became alarmed for the safety of his wife and child because every moment the trees threatened to fall ard crush the house. He accordingly con- cluded to make his way to the residence of Mr. W. Seymour Tulloch, which oc- a less dangerous situation, and with . Hensey and his little one started out perilous journey. The path led h the woods, and the tr were S all sides, while the flying leaves nearly blinded thi They reacned Mr. Tulloch’s house in however, where Mrs. Hensey fainted from the shock to her nervy In the morning Mr. Hensey found that the cottage he had so sensi serted was badly wrecked, and room he had occupied w and their child had been c falling tre The White House.

In the beautiful surrounding the house the dam- ained was harrowing to the feel- he lovers of nature. No les of the lendid tr. walnuts and magnolias, 1 of historical associations, completely leveled, while full fifty of surviving tre uffered the of = tops and pri al branches and are nently defaced. As this is the third a year that the grounds have y, tho not before to mt excent, there is n to tear that the beauty of the lawns efinit-ly impaired. Mr. MeIntosh’s Exeape. Mr. Wheeler MeIntosh, living at the corner of 7th street and Whitney avenue, had, with his wife and three children, a e from being killed during family had retired to the evening, but were awal o'clock by the noise caused by A little later a huge tree nearly sixty feet high, which was uprosted by the wind, crashed through the bath room of the hou: d penetrated the ceil- ing of the room they r- tu e occupying. £ e limbs of Gladness Comes Wit a better understanding of the transient nature of the many phys- ical ills, which vanish before proper ef- forts—gentle efforts—pleasant efforts— rightly directed. There is comfort in the knowledge, that so many forms of sickness are not due to any actual dis- ease, but simply to a constipated condi- tion of the tem, which the pleasant family laxative, Syrup of prompt- ly removes. That is why it is the only remedy with miilionsof families, andis everywhere esteemed so highly by all who value good health. Its beneficial eff. ve due to the fact, that itis the one remedy which promotes internal cleanliness ithout debilitating the organs on which it acts. It is therefore all important, in order to get its bene- ficial effects, to note when you pur- chase, that you have the genuine arti- ele, which is manufactured by the Cali- fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by all reputable druggists. Tf in the enjoyment of good health, and the system is regular, laxatives or other remedies are then not needed. If afflicted with any actual disease, one may be commended to the most skillful icians, but if in need of a laxative, one should have the best, and with the well-informed everywhere, Syrup of Figsstands highest and is most largely used and gives most general satisfaction.

Many other trees on Mr. McIntosh’s grounds were blown down. A number of small unocoupied frame houses in the neighborhood were entirely demolished. At Mr. Finicy’s. Mr. Frank M. Finley and his wife, who lived at No. 1215 Pennsylvania avenue northwest, went down in the wreck of their house, and how they escaped being killed is a mystery. When the crash came they were standing at a front window, looking, as Mr. Finley said today to a Star reporter, at the devastation taking place in the vicinity, when suddenly the upper part of the side wall of the adjoining building fell upon the house, and the whole mass went down into chaos below. Mr. and Mrs. Fin- ley also fell into the debris, but; by almost superhuman effort, he succeeded in getting out of the wreck and then he extricated his wife. An examination by Mrs. Finley's physician disclosed that she was quite bad- ly hurt about the body and limbs. Mr. Finley had his left leg badly skinned, but otherwise he escaped uninjured. Mr. Fin- ley had $1,500 worth of furniture, all of which was utterly ruined. : Pension Office. ‘The pension office was thought to have suffered from the storm, but, beyond the tearing away of a greater part of the new copper roof, and the smashing of about fifty panes of glass, there was no damage. When a reporter of The Star visited the office he found everything working smooth- ly as though nothing had happened. Work will immediately commence to replace the roof and restore the damaged windows. Kelso Spire. ‘The great Kelso spire on the Mctropoiitan Church stood the storm's fury right gallant- ly. It suffered somewhat, and may have to be taken down, but from a cursory exam- ination this morning it was found that It had escaped very serious injury. On the east side a part of the structure has been carried away, and the capping has been in- jured. Force of the Wind. An incident of the storm that showed the force of the wind occurred at the home of Alvan C. Hooper, 1635 P street northwest. At the height of the storm a piece of slate was blown through one of the front win- dows of the house, burying itself in the wall. Two other pieces of slate were found deeply imbedded in the window frame. It was not known where the slate came from, but it must have been blown from a roof several hundred feet away. House of Mercy. ‘The building occupied by the House of Mercy, 2408 K street, was seriously dam- aged, and as the sisters only by strict econ- omy can meet their ordinary expenses, they make an appeal to the public for sufficieat money to enable them to put the building in safe and habitable condition. Lakeland Clab. The Lakeland, Md., Democratic Club, whose headquarters in this cliy are on Perrsylvania avenue, between 9th and 10th streets, was a heavy loser by the cyclone. The roof of the music store of Mr. E. F. Drocp, adjoining, was torn from the.place where it belonged and deposited on the roof of the club's building, as were also apparently several other roofs brought by the wind from other structures. The great- ly added weight caused a large portion of the Lakeland Club house to give way and the whole mass fell through to the base- ment, ruining the chairs, decorations and otker property of the club, to a large amount. The loss to the building will also be very considerable. Damage at St. Elizabeth's, ‘The loss sustained from the sturm at St. Elizabeth's Asylum was very severe, and it will, it is thought, require about 32, $3,000 to repair the damage. The roofs of the large barn and stable were blown off, and every revolving ven- tilator, of which there were about twenty en the various buildings, was destroy A great many of the largest and best tr in the grounds were uprooted, and Dr. A. H. Witmer, the assistant medical superin- tendent, said this afternoon that it will require thirty years at least to grow other trees to take their places. At Takoma Park. Takoma Park itself probably suffered less from last night's storm than any of the suburban settlements along the Metropoli- tan branch of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad. The wires of the electric road were blown down to a considerable extent. The portion of the country laying north- past of Takoma received its share of the storm, a great deal of damage being done. The storm had full sway-at Woodside and Linder. The house of Maj 23:4 Lawrence at Linden was partially un- roofed. Damage at Highland. The principal damage done by the storm at Highland station, on the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, was to the Highland Sani- tarlum, which is under the management of Dr. Westlake. The large barns were com- pletely demolished, burying three horses and three carriages in the wreck. Two of these horses were owned by Mr. Julivs Lansburgh and Mr. B. H. Kopf of this city, while the third was the property of Dr. Westlake. The animals were rescued with a few slight scratches. The roof of the Sanitarium was badly damaged and the tall windmill, the flagstaff and a number of the largest and finest trees were blown com- pletely down. The place is owned by Mr. John F. Waggaman. Soldiers’ Home. The grove part of Soldiers’ Home was serlously damaged by the storm Tuesday night. The roofs of four of the buildings were largely carried away. On the Scott building a large amount of the slate has been dislodged; the great oak, largest per- haps in the country, was blown down, with probably 300 other trees, among ‘them ™maay of the most beautiful ornamental trees, some of which were planted by Mr. Corcoran and Mr. Riggs fully half a cen- tury ago. It is thought that it will require years to repair the damage. Out at Benning. The storm treated Benning and the sur- rounding country rather better than the rest of the land in its track. One house, that of George Barnes, was unroofed and fences ard trees were blown down; but on the whole the town fared pretty well. Along the road to Benning the telegraph poles on the left-hand side were all blowa half-way down, while most of those on the right-hand side were untouched. The house of Mrs. G. N. Walker at 1639°H street was unroofed, and several houses in that vicin ity had the tin coverings loosened to a con- siderable degree. Windows suffered and glass 1s strewn in front of nearly all the houses on the road. At 2100 H street a barn filled with hay was demolished and several chicken houses shared the same fate. Along tke Bladensburg road the traces of the storm were -listinctly- visible. C.Strauss & Co., the florists, suffered extensive dam- unroofed, and several houses in that vicin- foot up a good many thousand dollars in glass, frames and iike material. seven of the glass houses were blown com. pletely down and are, with their contents @ complete loss. All the fences along the pike were blown down and large trees that have been land- marks for years were elther blown down or mutilated. At the reform school the force of the wind was terrific, having, as it did, a clean sweep from the Eastern branch straight up to the top of the hill. Several tine trees were blown down and great quantities of glass irom the windows and slate from the roofs of the buildings were deposited on the roads and walks and on the grass. The loss in this particular was rot, however, any more than was expected and the au- thorities at the school are congratulating themselves cn the slight loss sustained. ‘The greenhouses suffered to a slight ex- tent, Lit this afternoon all traces of the storm had been removed c At Washington Grove. Washington Grove was exposed to the fury of the storm, but it is reported that only one house in the grounds controlled hy the association was in any way damaged. Many of those who spend the summer months at the popular camp meeting place have not yet returned to the city for the season, and their friends have been some- what anxious about how the cottages would stand the gale. It wiH be gratifying to Insu late fellott. 08 Lath siread norE ane Raat, Clephane, -Your local doctor may be a good old but you shudder when he suggests local treatment for the weakness and diseases pe- culiar to women. These things are gener- ally unnecessary, but the doctor doesn’t know it. He is perfectly honest, but he is behind the times. He does the best he can, no doubt, but his best is not good enough. He is not a specialist. He is a general prac- titioner, worried and bothered and hurried in giving attention to a thousand and one different ailments. Many busy physicians do not take the time to find out what is really the matter with their patients. Many a woman has been continuously treated for a disease she did not have, because fre- quently the symptoms of diseases pecu- liarly feminine appear to be the same as those of other disorders. Every invalid woman may have the serv- ices of a regularly graduated, experienced and skilled specialist in the treatment of diseases of women if she will write to Dr. R. V. Pierce, chief consulting physician of the Invalids’ Hotel and Surgical Institute, at Buffalo, N. ¥. Over thirty years ago Dr. Pierce invented his ‘‘Favorite Prescrip- . tion,” for the treatment of the diseases of women. It has had a record of thirty years of success, and to-day more of it is sold by druggists than all other medicines for wo- men combined. Its effect is immediately perceptible. It is quick to stop the drag- ging, bearing-down feeling and other tor- turing pains. It soothes inflammation, motes regularity, and stops debilitating Grains on the system. The physiology of women, in health and die ease, related in Dr. Pierce's Common Sense Med- sex. A copy free for 21 one-cent stamps postage only.

But a far different story is that which re- lates to the magnificent trees for which the grove is famous. Hundreds of these have been leveled, and the havoc wrought among the branches by the wind most id to be al- past description. Chestnuts, hick- oaks and many other superb nut and de trees are ruined, and the loss in this respect is said to be inestimable. In Anucostin.* There was but little damage as the result of the storm in Anacostia outside of the breaking of a large number of panes of glass in the various greenhouses which abound in the suburbs, and the bréaking of limbs of trees on Monroe, Jackson and other streets. In some few instances, also, uprooted. dent to the Metropolitan Railway Compary’s power house on 4% street and the damage caused by the hign wind in the city seriously interfered with the running of the Anacostia cars and the last car was nearly two hours behind time in turning in at the Anacostia terminus tor the night. Several times, while on his way south, Mr. William Ashby, the driver, had to cut trees from the track. The family of Mr. Patterson, living near Hillsdale, had a narrow escape during the storm. Lecoming alarmed, the family has- tily left the building, which fell down al- most as soon as they had gotten away from it veral houses on the Mowen road and at Good Hope were unroofed, as was also Haines’ Hall, in Anacostia. Capt. Benner, who had charge of a barge leaded with coal for St. Elizabeth's Asy- lum, who, with his family, were living on the vessel, which “had been tied at the wharf near Giesboro’ Point, had, with them, a narow escape. The wind caused the barge to break from its moorings and overturn and sink. The occupants escaped in a small boat, but all they owned was lcst. Two other barges loaded with coal for the asylum were also blown out into the river, where they sank. =e Health of the City. The reports to the health department for the week ending Saturday, September 26, show a decline of ten per cent in the mor- tality of the city, as compared with that of the preceding week. The deaths num- bered ninety, of whom thirty-five were white and fifty-five colored, giving an an- nual death rate of 16.6 as against 20.2 in the corresponding period of last year. Two deaths from diphtheria and one from whooping cough embrace the entent of the contagious diseases in fatal form. There were three deaths from malarial affections and five from typhoid fever. Mortality among children under five years of age reached thirty-nine, of whom twenty-eight were under cne year old. ,Of diphtheria twenty new cases were reported, eight houses were released from quarantine, leaving twenty-five placarded. No new cases of scarlet fever were reported, two houses were relieved from isolation, leay- ing four premises with warning ‘cards. Marriages reported, thirty, and births, ninety-eight. EDUCATIONAL.
