A tornado struck this part of
the country last Thursday evening
about five o'clock and did consid
erable damage to buildings and
trees. The storm was accompan
ied by a hard rain and 'hail. '
Another storm less severe came up
about 8 o'clock 'the same evening
and helped to finish some of the
devastation that was partly begun
by the first section of the storm.
The board awnings of the Eldorado
saloon occupied by Geo. Hershey
and the frame building used by
Frank Fischer "for his furniture
and storage room were torn down.
A stable used by Mat Woodson
and the stable owned by Stratton
& Kline between here and the Post
svere also demolished. W. S.

3ver. Massingale's corn crib and
Hackler's coal house were blown
Jown. Jake Martin's stone chick-
m house was unroofed and wind

From The Cody Cow Boy
Married at the home of the bride's
parents , near Eli , May > 14 , 1903 ,
Rev. B. Hunt officiating , James
S. Lowrie and Miss Luella Jamer-
son.
Mrs. H. V. Downing , who is re
siding at Hastings , Neb. , temporarily
arily , so that the children may at
tend school , is visiting her husband
at present , at the ranch , about 40
miles south of Merriman.
Uncle Jimmy Collins has closed
his restaurant in West Cody , and
packed up his householdsand he and
Mrs. Collins have gone to Valen-
ine. Later they expect to spend
a few weeks or a month at Hot
Springs. The Cow Boy regrets to
see these people move 'away from
i >
Wm. Danofsky and wife and
child departed on the west bound
train from Cody , Monday morning
their destination being South Seat
tle , Wash. , where they expect to
make their future home. This
gentleman was only a small boy
when he came toCherry county ,
with his parents , 19 years ago.
Junior Kormal.
Miss Brown , Co. Supt. of Cherry
Co. authorizes us to say that she
will renew the first and second
grade certificates of teachers who
attend the Junior Normal the full
term of ten weeks and for persons
holding third grades and those who
have not taught , she will accept all
grades of SO per cent or over made
in class examination. She wishes
us to say further that the last
week of the Junior Normal
will be Union Normal Insti
tute for Cherry and adjoin
ing counties. Any young person
who plans to teach in Cherry Co.
at any time during the year must
attend institute week. A number
of young persons applied for cer
tificates this spring who had never
attended an institute and had no
opportunity whatever of .learning
how to manage a school- keep the
records or anything of the kind.
She believes there will be enough
young people this year , who will
attend institute that none other
need apply.
On our own account we wish to
say to the young people of Cherry
Co. , this is an opportunity you
cannot afford to miss. You should
be present every day of the Jun
ior Normal.
Young persons from the countrj-
who are planing to enter the Val
entine High School in Sept. will do
well to attend the Junior Normal
and devote almost their whole time
to arithmetic and grammar. This
will make them strong for their
Algebra and Latin and insure them
against a probable failure the first
year of their high school course.
