RED CLOUD, NJ313RASIvA, jIAY 15, 1800.
I'roiu Lincoln.
(Special Con eponi1i'tiri to IiirCiiikf.)
Lincoln, My 13 A suvcro storm
pasHCil over this pl.ice Tuesday
afternoon. All da', thunder caps
hid been iniug in the south
west and disappearing without
rain. About .'1.!10 p. tn., a peculiar
dark cloud formed suddonly. It was
not lnrgo in extent, hut unusually
dense. Soon it appeared to touch
the earth The brilliant ihshes and
distant rumbling portended an un
oommon clcotrioul htorm. At four
o'clock, it began in a heavy dash of
rain. Twcnty-tuo hundredths of an
inch fell in five minute. Then came
the wind; side-walK. out-houses,
fences, and branclus of trees wero
carried befrc it like so much chuff.
The rain, with u little hail, continued
to full in twrrents. The galo lasted
at its wnrt about twenty minutes.
During tins ftue the wind reached
the tornbli' velocity of over eighty
miles per hour. The rainfall amount
ed 10 about onu and ono-half inches.
The storm dplayed many cyclonic
peculiarities. It traveled from south
west to nortlnast. Its path of gieat
et severity was very narrow. On
cither side of this path tho wind was
altogether inconsiderable. Tho cen
ter ol the .storm crossed O St., at 9th.
Hero it unroofed a brick block, while,
at tho Capitol on 16th street, there
was said to be no wind at all. In tho
railroad yards in the southwest part
of the city, several cars wero carried
fifty or t-ixty feet from the track. In
this section, loo, a church was blown
down.
After crossing O street, tho storm
passed northeast, mid crosstd, in its
course, the Univerpity Campus. On
tho way it unroofed two brick build
ings at 7th and P streets. Tho
bricks, timbers and roofing wore car
ried aornss Ninth to tho Stato Journal
block, but the latter was uninjured.
At tho university, the huge capstones
of Grant Memorial Hall were blown
out, and fell upon tho groat stone
steps at tho entrance of tho building,
crushing them to pieoes. Mr. Par
molle, a student, narrowly escaped
buing struik by tho fulling stones.
Many of tho beautiful campus trees
were destroyed. In another part of
the city, a building was unroofed, and
tho walls of tho hotel Ideal were
blown in.
Sevoral people were seriously hurt
by tho falling dabris, but no ono was
killed. A man who had sought shel
ter at tho church that waB demolished
had his leg broken. Another had
two arteries of his wrist severed by
tho falling of plato glass, at tho Kim
bal hotel. In many places, the troes
wero twisted and wrenched in first
cIbbs ojlonu fashion.
When tho storm had passed, tho
streets wero blockaded in many places
with debris, roofing and timbers, over
turned vehiolec, and largo trees that
had stood for ten or fifteen years.
Rain eontinued to fall after tho galo
had subiidcd. It has rained all night
and tho oleud aro still dropping fat
ness. Wednesday, 11.15 a. m,
Chanoey Warner turned off his
elcctrio lamps last night. He said
tho clouds could outdo him and his
machinery. J. F, B.
