Just Straight Wind But Nighty Fierce This section of God’s county, after a little two much “dry” work, was visited last Sunday evening by nice rain of GO-loOth inches. The storm broke over Loup City at 10:15, pre ceded and accompased by one of the fiercest straignt winds ever known in this section. Trees were pulled up by the roots, great trunks split down tlie middle, branches broken off and scattered over the country, fences laid low windmills blown down and the deuce played generally. From what we could learn the storm was wide spread. It came from a little north of west’ and seemed to make small flying machines of all things mova ble. However, no fatalities are re ported and no serious damage any where. Among the incidents noted following the scare in this immediate vicinity were: A big tree, 17 inches in diameter at R. L. Adamson’s tom up by the roots and taking with it some ten feet of earth each way. The trunk of a big shade tree in front of Dr. Kearns’ residence split in two from roots up several feet to the main forks. The high board fences around the Hosier a'bd Miner livery stables laid low. The windmill belonging to N. Jen sen just northeast of town, was made a total wreck, while a wagou, box and all was lifted od top of bis chick en house, which latter was protected by a Mne of trees or would have been wrecked and 300 chickens scattered over the prairie. A report from Arcadia says one of the livery stables there was struck py lightning during the storm and burned down. A false fire alarm here during the early part of the storm brought out the fire laddies, but they fcund mere ly the fisherman’s luck. All over this section we hear of minor damages incident to the heavy wind, but luckily none of much mo Glorious Fourth Here and There The great National holiday has once more come and gone. That is an original remark, isn’t it? But it has at least the merit of being truth ful, even if somewhat bewhiskered. And another thing, It wasobserved, in this part of the moral heritage in a perfectly safe and sane manner. We have not at this writing, several days afterward, heard yf one accident as a result of the day’s jubilee in Loup Citp or Sherman connty. Good rec ord, don’t you thiok? The day opened beatiful in Loup City and in fact all over the best bountv on earth, and the waking hours Were not, as in former years, greeted with the senseless din of ex ploding oannon crackers and staall musketry of the lesser evil, and so continued throughout the day. Jenner's Park, of course, was the Mecca for all celebrators in and com ing to Loup City, and there from ear ly morn till the wee sma hours of the coming day joy reigned supreme. The nark grounds were dressed in their holiday best, and at the height of the day, and when the crowd was the biggest it was estimated that2,000 peaple were iuside its gates. The fornoon was given over to picnic and dinner parties, viewing the animals, : and enjoying the hours in a quiet way. The afternoon drought the ex [odusfrom town and country till by evening fairly swarmed the grounds. Ttie hours were passed in various sports, games and entertainments till the shades of evening fell, when a splendid pyrotechnic display, followed by dancing in the pavillion closed the day. To much praise could not accorded our spleudid band which was a feature of the day. Among the attractions note were the snakes and handling of the same by our lo cal snake charmer, Harry Gardner: the antics of the park policeman, A. T. Conger, and his stump speech; the clown act by Bob Jenner and his monolog act: the ocean wave, the white donkey for the little ones, etc. Get jour Chatauqua season tickets at the Northwestern office.
