TEKAMAH. Neb., June J.-(Spclal.)
Tekamah people were very much amused
and disgusted with the account of th
"terrible cyclone" in our town, published
In an Omaha paper. It waa misleading In
almost every particular. The Bee had th
principal and worst features yesterday.
As for th flood, that was most all Imag
inative. The water of Tekamah creek
came out a very little once and ran down
one or two of the streets a few inches.
The only damage of high water Is the
overflowing of the large fertile Missouri
bottom east of town. We had a heavy
shower In the morning and again In the
afternoon no very great amount of water
falling.
About 2:30 there seemed to be a thunder
storm of ordinary occurrence approaching
from the southwest. Almost without
warning two clouds seemed to meet di
rectly over the southwest corner of the
city and th first warning we ha4 was a
tremendous roaring and the whirling of
debris, broken branches, shingles and lum
ber. It first struck Mr. Speelman's brick
residence on the hill Just west of the
depot and unroofed It; then slgzagged
northeast catohtng and tearing to pieces
all the fin large shade trees In front of
Crowe!' residence, but not Injuring the
house; then Jumping across the railroad
and striking Mrs. Parish's house, blowing
down the chimneys and partially unroofing
a part of the house; then directly north,
striking and completely wrecking Brune's
blacksmith shop. Near this, to the north,
is the opera house, which it moved from
the foundation a few feet west and un
roofed it and crushed in the wallsl
Shade Trees Are DnmaaeS.
Directly across the street north Is J. C.
Shaw's residence. It struck there hard,
ruining nearly all his fine shade tree and
breaking out a large plate glass window
and damaging the rocf by falling limbs.
Tt seemi to have raised up here and
passed on north, strlk'.ng John Robeson's
on th hill, taking hi! outbuildings and
mowing a n-rrow swath out through his
orchard. The Injured people were more
scared than hurt and are all right this
morning. A Mr. Deaver, living alone in
a small house near Splelman's, was hurt
mora or less by the turning over of his
house.
A little branch of the storm struck across
the bottom east, vnot coming down to do
any damage until It reached""!. H. Denny's
furm about seven miles southeast, where
It swooped down and demolished his barn
and plowed through the timber In a nar
row path to W. W. Latto's place on the
river. No other damage is reported from
the country.
Now this Is the true story of the Te
kamah cyclone and we are going to turn
the large amount of help we expect to see
pouring In soon to the Roosevelt campaign
fund. Don't all send at once, please.
NORTH LOUP, Neb., June 1 (Special.)
The rainfall for the last four days amounts
to 1.25 inches. Everything in the crop line
Is rejoicing. '
WEST POINT. Neb., June 2. (Speclal.)
Another very heovy rain has fallen gener
al) over this section, saturating the ground
to a great depth, to the benefit of all grow
ing crops, especially corn, which shows an
excellent stand and a vigorous growth.
Potatoes, of which a large acreage is
planted in this county, look extremely
thrifty. Small grain, though thin, 1 a good
growth. Thai hay crop will be above the
average, and fruit, especially plums and
cherries, will give an abundant .yield.
CATTLEMEN MEET AT ALLIANCE
Not All of Them Pleased with the
Klnkatd Homestead Bill.
ALLIANCE, Neb., June 2. (Special Tele
gram.) The heavy downpour of rain that
greeted the Nebraska Stock Growers' asso
ciation day accelerated, rather than
dampened, the ardor of the delegates and
their friends from everywhere. Before and
during the opening session of their con
vention the bright prospects for them and
the people of the northwest because of this
same rain wa a live topic of discussion.
The decoration In honor of the event and
the reception given by the cltisens of Al
1 lance were marked and highly appreciated
and far from what was expected of this
young city of the plains.
Br far the feature of today's session
was the address of 8. P. DeLatour of
Lewellen, Neb., in which he not only gave
response to the welcome extended by Cap
tain W. R. Akera, acting for Mayor J. W.
Bowman, but he likewise gave expression
to the undercurrent of dissatisfaction ex
isting among the stockmen In general in
connection with the 640-acre amendment
to the homestead laws fathered by Con
gressman M. P. Klnkald of O'Neill. The
fact of the Judge being present only adds
greater Interest to the subject, for It gives
him the opportunity of defending his po
sition, which he will do tomorrow.
The address of President R. M. Hampton
of Alliance was highly Important, for it
teemed with the practical idea of the stock
graslng business as well as to the detail
of ranch management.
"The Future of Cattle Industry," by Hon.
J. L. Mcintosh of Sidney, Neb., elicited the,
applause and attention It deserved, for he
ably pointed out a future that will be be
yond the moat sanguine expectation and
basing it only' on what stockmen find
around about them today.
Thla evening practically terminated the
social and amusement feature of the con
vention. On tomorrow will occur the elec
tion of officers, aa well as practical dem
onstrations of best plnns of Judging cattle
and a display of ppper methods of hand
ling stock. The representatives from the
various commission houses of South Omaha
who cam in a special car were another
feature of the affair, for they were In
stantly voted "royal good fellow."

IN Sr RANCH COMPANIES FIGHT LAW
Defeated ta Att-romaetM Salt They
Attack "Valaed Poller" Phaso,
sPIERRB, S. D., June 2-. Since being de
feated In the United States court In their
attack on th "anti-compact" provision
of th insurance laws of last winter, there
has been no aotlv movement on the part
of the insurance companies further than
to announce their 'intention to appeal th
eas.
Now they have started a new suit, the
Phenlx of Brooklyn and other companies
being Interested, in an attack on the "val
ued policy" law. The case is being ear
lied for th companies by the law firm
of Preston & Hannett of Mitchell, and
will come up for hearing at Mitchell on
July 4. The complaint declares that this
provision of the law Is unconstitutional in
that it grants to the insurance commis
sioner legislative and Judicial powers by
authorising him to provide a form of policy
for us In th state to comply with th
provisions of th new law, and that thla
form should have been fixed by the lecle-
latur Itself as a part of tb law. Ta
complaint also declare the valued policy
law to be In violation of contract.
Thl move I only a part of tha general
plan of Insurance companies to defeat the
law passed at the last session of the legis
lature to govern their actions In this
state.
