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.
