A special to, the Lincoln Journal
under date of Sept. 12, from Wahoo,
gives these particulars. The show has
been striking some hard lines: A terrific
storm of wind, rain and hail struck this
eity Isst night just ss the Pawnee Bill
Wild West show wss resdy to begin Jts
performsnee, snd came near creating a
panic A portion of the canvas was
blown down, the lights were extinguish
ed snd a wild scramble made to get out
of reach of the tent poles and seats
which were being hurled about in a most
threatening manner. The great crowd
received a thorough drenohing, was pep
pered with hail stones, some of which
were as lsrge ss wslnuts, and several
received quite serious bruises about the
head and face from flying debris, bnt
luckily no fatalities occurred. It will be
some time before sll the lost hats,
nmbrellss, far oollsrs and other articles
of wearing apparel are restored to the
proper owners, sad some will probably
never cease lamenting the loss of their
money given to the illustrious Pawnee
Bill, with no value received.
