Additional rain had 'fallen almost every day for a month, making the roads impassable and saturating the ground thoroughly with water. This wus followed by a heavy, full of snow, , which disappeared , rapidly under the heavy warm rain of Friday night and Saturday. The pt-lches r valleys in the hiils are frou. "-v hundred feet to probably a q i nu r f a mile wide, generally. J)-.vi: -. .! is at the junction of Wh:twood aud Dead wood gulches. Numerous gulches in this case emptied their accumula tion of water from the mountains into those two rauin gulches and gave volume to the water that rushed down Whitewood in resistless force. Central City, Anchor City and Golden Gate are on the Deadwood above Deadwood City. The greater portion of Cential City would be above the flood but for Anchor and Golden Gate. There was no escape here, however. The gulch is not over 600 feet wide. Deadwood is a town of 6,000 peole. The main residence portion of the city is from 100 to 200 feet above the gulch and the main business portion was also above the danger line. The por tion destroyed was occupied by cheap tenement houses, second-class hotels, laundries, small traders, sporting houses, livery stablt-s, etc. Some build ings were built over the stream.which, at its ordinary stage, was only a few feet wide. Its locality was avoided, however, by the shrewder interest, the danger was recognized. In this case timely warning was given by means of the telephone system existing in the Hills, and the most valuable articles were removed. ... , So tar but three bodies have been re covered, but it in now beiievjjd ihat the loss of life has been great.'. The wild excitement was only equalled by that at the time of the fire.

Deepalches from Yivious poiuts iu Illinois give fuller details of 'Friday night's cyclone. - In Illinois the storm raged in atout the same manner it did in Missouri, the chief damage, however, being to country property, it sti iking no town of any' considerable size.

All other members of the family were' iujured. A well on the place, containing 20 feet of water, was sucked perfectly dry. Wolfs store atllamel, a few miles from Edwards- ville, was blown to pieces. Four per sons were killed. At Woodsboro, a brick school house, a church and three residences were blown down; James Carr and wife were seriously injured.

Several others in Texas township, and three persons named Clifton were killed and at out a dozen badly injured. The house of a man named McPherson containing six per sons was lifted into the air, carried a 100 feet, and set down again. Nobody received a scratch, A SUMMARY.
