WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 21, 1912. ABOUT THE STATE News of Especial Interest to Minnesota Readers, CYCLONIC STORM IS FATAL Three Persons Killed in the Twin Cities—Damage to Property Enormous. Three dead, another mortally injured; an estimated property loss of $100, 000; houses unroofed, sheds and barns crushed, windows shattered, base- ments flooded, train and trolley car service abandoned on many lines, tel ephone and telegraph communication | in many directions hampered, severai | gardens and field crops ruined and nu merous narrow escapes—these figure | in the total computed from incomplete reports of the havoc left in the wake of the cyclone storm which swept the Twin Cities and suburbs. The storm area covered St. Paul, Minneapolis, | South and West St. Paul, and inter- Mediate points between St. Paul ané White Bear lake and Stillwater, and all through Southeastern Minnesota. At Lakeview, near Lake City, five national guardsmen were seriously | hurt by lightning and many others | shocked. The rain was very heavy, in some places being reported as very like aj cloudburst. A large cow barn on the farm of John Bergman, dairyman, collapsed during the wind, killing Mrs. Anna Freyer, Ellsworth, Wis, and Mary i Bergman, five years old, instantly. Mr. ‘Bergman, his wife and their three ether children, Helen, aged seven; | John, aged four, and Jacob, aged | eighteen months, were in the barn at the time, but escaped with minor in- juries. Twenty cows were in the barn, | and all killed by the falling walls. At Minneapolis Ralph C. Gillette, eldest son of L. C. Gillette of the Minneapolis Steel and Machinery company, was killed instantly by a bolt of lightning while seeking shelter under a tree on the Interlachen Golf club links during the storm. Dr. C. | W. Card, a dentist, was knocked un- conscious ard was in a serious condi- | tion for a few minutes after the shock. Joe Nelson, ten years old, a caddy boy, is thought to have been fatally injured by the bolt of lightning that struck Mr. Gillette. E. S. Hous | ton, a coffee salesman, was stunned by ‘the same stroke, but recovered shortly. WRECK ON GREAT NORTHERN One Person Killed When Five Cars Leave Track. Five cars of the Oriental limit- ed, the crack train of the Great North- ern, went down an embankment one and three-quarter miles west of Melby village and a short while later fire de stroyed the wreckage. Qne person was killed and « physician aboard the train dressed the injuries of eleven others. Many more are believed to have been injured. Neil Campbell, fireman, St. Paul, was killed. Conflicting reasons are given for the wreck. One is that it was caused by a defective rail; the other that the Toadbed had been so softened by the | recent rains that it was unable to sup- port the heavy train. This theory 1# | given the greater credence, in view of the fact that two big freight trains passed over the rails only a short time wefore the Oriental. The wreck occurred as the passen ger train was making a curve to the | right aroumd Pelican lake. ‘WOUNDS WIFE; KILLS SELF Domestic Quarrel! Leads to Tragedy Near Minneapolis. William Phipps, forty-five years of age, a truck gardener and drayman of | Wayzata, Lake Minnetonka, shot his wife in the breast and then killed him- self on the porch of their home. Mrs. Phipps is in a serious condition. The couple started quarreling in the Bouse and “uen repaired to the front porch where Phipps drew a revolver and fired three shots at his wife, one of ~aich took effect in the breast. DROWN IN SIGHT OF CROWD Two Minneapolis Boys Lose Lives in River. Roy Johnson, aged nine, and Jamea Case, eleven, were drowned in the Mis sissippi river at Minneapolis, when, | | efter walking down the stream, they fell off a “stepoff” and perished in full | view of many persons standing on the bridge. : SoatoeSesfoateetoateetesfoetesteetenteatoetenteetesfoeteeten: a % fost Sete oeteeton$ % = Seafeefeon % ewer ey Sentosa a Zetect The body of youag Johnson was | the drowning. WOMAN ROBBED OF $2,350. Masked Men Secure Considerable | Sum and Escape. While her husband slept on a lower floor masked men entered the home of | Mrs. John Fulton at McGregor and | robbed Mrs. Fulton of $2,350 in casb and escaped. When awstened by the men Mrs. Fulton fainted. Mrs. Fulton some years ago had lost some money in the collapse of a bank. ‘found by the police two hours after | First Dational Ban Itasca Store News With New Hats—0Our Miss Swanson just arrived home and brought with her the new fall headware that she has selected while in the market. A good many of her new hats are already seen on the streets. With the New Corsets—Owing to the very low cuts of the new corset shapes, the Brassiere is a practical necessity for the perfect fit of the fall garments. While many of them run way up in price, we are showing the “Model” Brassieres in nicely embroidered styles at 48c and 69c. Throwing Them Out—tThat is, not out doors bet in going thru the ribbon stock we threw out a lot of wide ones in blacks and colors, to unload some of which we had too many. oods that were 35c, and at that are the best that your money can buy: are now on our bargain counter at 23c. And they are six inches wide, most of them. Heep the Ankle Protected—In the ship- ment of shoes just received we had a high-button boot, both black and brown, for young ladies. (For that matter, the ladies are all young.) These boots came in sizes 2}4 to 5 and have met with a favorable reception, a good many already being sold. The price is only $3.98 even though they are a “Buster Brown” make and guaranteed all leather. Dress Goods are Heavy—wWhipcords and storm serges are among the best sellers in the new fall goods. For skirts and suits there will be a good many corduroys used. They wear well and are stunning when made up prop- erly. Several of our young ladies hsve already bought some from the last shipment we rece!ved. From New YorK—Monday we got a shipment of wool and silk dresses sent us by a house in New York that makes a specialty of these garments. Wool dresses from $7.95 up, and silk dresses as low as $12.00. CloaKs are Here—while it is a little early to think about them, we are showing some of those stunning loose coats with wide belts. They are less expensive than one would think. Also a lot of plushes at from $15 to $35.
