Cooper ft Hodgklns' dry goods' atore was destroyed , the Methodist , Christian and Colored Meth odist churches were blown down and a dozen residences and as many barns were totally wrccltod. A complete list of dead reported at 2 o'clock Is as follows : 8ALLIR WEBSTER , aged 70. FLORENCE WEBSTER , aged 36. RALPH WEBSTER , aged 35 , THOMAS SHIELDS , baby. II. 1HBBS. The1 injured are : Mrs. Neal , both collar bones broken and internal Injuries. James Neal , ecalp wound and Internal In- juries. Roy Webster , right arm broken , right hip and left elbow dislocated. Mrs. Martha Smith , hip dislocated and In ternal Injuries. Etta Smith , Internal Injuries. George A. Dicker , head injured. A. O. Hanback , bond injured. Three members of A. Sharpo's family badly injured. Mrs. Thomas Shields , living nine miles south , fatally Injured. The Injuries of the mother of Jamei Neal and A. O. Hanback will probably prove fatal. All wires are down and another storm Is coming. The storm struck the city nt C o'clock , ac companied by a violent rain storm , which was nv quick and destructive as a waterspout. Fully twenty people were more or less In jured , some fatally. The storm was not anticipated and no preparations were made by the citizens to get out of the way In utorm cellars. When It bad abated and the Work of rescue was begun a dozen homeless families were found In the streets or In the ruins of their homes. Mrs. Webster and her mother and daughter were found In their wrecked house. Hlbbs was killed In his house. Cooper & Hodg- klrk's brick store building , the best structure in town , was demolished , ono wall and the rear end having been blown In , destroying the stock of dry goods. Twenty-seven box cars were blown from the Kansas City , Fort Scott & Memphis track. The freight and paiscngcr depots were almost demolished and much damage to freight resulted. Several fine residences and many small houses and outbuildings were blown away. In shaft 49 of the Kansas and Texas Coal company , at Weir City , where many miners were engaged , the water rushed In with such rapidity that the miners barely escaped with their lives. Every mule In the shaft was drowned. The creeks were swollen beyond their banks within a few hours and fuller reports from the country roundabout can but bring news of damage to life and prop erty from the combined forces of wind and water. The Memphis railroad's wrecking train and brldgo crews were called from this city to repair Its depots and small washouts which will not Interfere with trairic. There seems to have been two currents of wind which struck the town , ono from the north nnd the other from the west , and these met at the Methodist Episcopal church , joined forces and turned cast , doing serious damage to property before meeting , but after comlnp together the destruction of property was complete. In the track of the current from the north the passenger depot was the first thing damaged. Further on much dam age was done to residence property , shade trees and everything In Its way. The cur rent from the west seems to have been the stronger. It struck some of the residences- west of the freight depot , doing serious dam age , but when It came to the yards of the railroad twenty-eight freight cars wfiro thrown from the track and badly damaged. The depot was moved off the foundation , wrecked about the roof and the goods and contents were badly flooded. From the rail road track on to the point of meeting the other current the damage to property was not so great. WRECKED THE CHURCH. The first object struck after the meeting was the Methodist Episcopal church. This was totally destroyed and It lies In a heap of ruins. The current turned slightly to the southeast , doing a good deal of damage until It reached a point just west of J , M. Cooper's large store , whore it turned directly eaet , strikingthe - store building , caving In the west , end and bady ) damaging the roof. The store was flooded and much damage done to the goods. The next object of the storm's fury , was the old blacksmith shop on the northwest corner of Military and River streets , which was completely ewept away. The Christian church was directly In the path. It lies like a pile of kindling wood. The Episcopal church was not touched , but the storm struck further up the street on the south Eldo and from there on not a residence oscipcJ. J. M. Cooper had seven houses , Including the one In which ho lived , very badly dam aged. Colonel William March , A. G. Han- beck , Mr. Chllds , Ira Perkins the resi dences of all these are In ruins. Three mem bers of the Webster family , recently from Nebraska , the mother , aged GO , daughter , aged 30 , and grandson , aged 4 , were kllhd by lightning. Another grandson had his ICE broken and his shoulder dislocated and will probably die. M. B. Hlbbff , aged about GO , died from ex citement , falling dead In one of the stores on Military street. The old Occidental hotel , now used as an opera house , was struck by lightning and somewhat damaged. Four largo hay barns in the neighborhood of the freight depot were completely wrecked. A conservative estimate of the damage places it at $100,000. There- was little , If any , cyclone insurance. The damage to property west of Baxter Springs cannot be fully determined. It Is reported that for many miles In the track ot tlio storm that fences and barns were blown down and crops more or less de stroyed. The west part of Lyon township seems to have had a touch of perhaps the same twister that lit , down on Baxter. LITTLE CHILD KILLED. It struck the farm and house of Thoma : Shields of Lyon , demolishing his house ant barns. Mrs. Shields and her two children were In the building at the time the storm struck It. One ot the children , a 2-year-old baby girl , was killed , the older child's leg was broken and Mrs. Shields had her shoulde dislocated and Is injured In her back and spine. She will die. One or two other farms In the Immediate vicinity ot Mr. Shields' were damaged and fences and trees torn up. W. L. Archer was found dead on the Noolan farm In Sheridan township. He let McCaue yesterday afternoon about 4 o'clock where he had been on bur'ncss. ' It Is sup posed that he was drowned while crossing the creek. Forty miners at work In mine No. 47 o the Kansas and Texas Coal company a Weir City had no knowledge of the storm until the mlno was deluged with torrents of water from above. All had narrow escapes from drowning. Every mule In the mine in s drowned. / The rain w s the most violent ever known , rettfiinblliiK a cloudburst , and the entire country was flooded , lleports of further fatalities seem almost certain when the roads are opened Tip.

Hundreds of shocks of wheat were destroyed , miles of fencing were washed away and live stock was drowned. Thniignndft ot Acrm of ( Irnln DnniBcml. FARQO , N. D. , July C. A storm last might extending from Ansclmo , fifteen miles west of here , and from ono to two miles wide , dam aged 30,000 or 40,000 acres of grain , threw buildings from their foundations and deluged the country.

( Special Telegram. ) Louis Napoleon Balsz kindly remembered his Id friend Buck today by presenting him with game , neatly wrapped In pink paper. It was in the first Inning. The first two men p were quickly made ready for the under taker , but Nattress was too strong nnd nserted Kennedy's grounder Into the gloam- ig three feet above Writing Fluid's head. Van Uuren got a base on balls and Balsz threw ulllvan's high bounder wild to first. Then Buck pierced precinct A of the Sixth word vlth ono of Louie's slow ones for a homer , nd four runs flowed In. In the next in- Ing he gave David Uelden Hill a base on mils. He promptly stole second and came n on a speerslong single. That was all , but . ' was enough. Buck set his pet gladiator , Clementina Klmerer , at the Ilutchlnson rowd , and he twirled winning balls. Three f the nine hits were scratches , nnd they were well scattered. The only time the imahas pried open the plate was In the hlrd , when Pace's single , Miles' triple and lagle's push netted two runs. Balsz had to otlre In the eighth , because of injuries re- elved by Buck stepping on his rlgnt bloomer nd contents In successfully endeavoring to atch him at second. Kgan finished the game.

CORNELL ROWS ON TUESDAY Drawn Against Loander in the First Round of Ilia Henley E'gatto. CREW ALL IN GOOD SHAPE ONCE MORE Member * \Vho Were Troubled with JMnlnrl * Have Uncovered nnit Are TuUInc to Work In Vine Style llciult of the Copyrighted , 1833 , by I'resi Publishing Company. ) HENLKY , England , July G. ( Now York Vorld Cablegram Special Telegram. ) lager , Freeborn , Fcnncll and Louis , who mvo been especially suffering from malaria , ho result of atmospheric changes , have practically recovered , and the crew for the grand cup , unless the unexpected should now occur , Is arranged as follows : Roe bow ) , Splllman , Hager , Frcfborn , Fcunell , ) yor , Louis and Hall ( stroke. ) The selec- Ion Is chiefly the result of the boys' own lollbcratlons. As thus composed tlio crew his morning rowed the full course In the splendid ttmo of seven minutes and four seconds , the Leander crew under similar conditions of weather going over It In seven minutes six and a halt seconds , and the Thames a llttlo later In seven minutes , flt- cen seconds. The Trinity crew limited Its efforts to a two-mlnuto burst , while Now college merely paddled. To the general public disappointment , the result of the draw , which took place this itternoon has been to pit Cornell against eander In the first round. In this round Thames , with.Berks . , Is drawn against Eton , with Bucks station ; London with Berks sta tion , against Trinity Hall , Cambridge , with ilucks , and Leander "with Berks against Cornell with Bucks station. Now College , ) xfonl , draws a bye. The Bucks station , as icing moro sheltered , Is considered to afford a slight advantage. The first round will be rowed on Tuesday , Cornell rowing Lcandcr at 3 o'clock , the second round on Wednesday , and the final on Thursday , the last day of the regatta. As posslbla results of the draw , It is clear that f Cornell beats Loander in the first round , they will most probably meet Trinity In the second round. As Trinity Is almost certain 0 beat London , and If Cornell beats Trinity hey will most likely have to contest the final with New College , who are expected to easily beat Thames , supposing , of course , that Thames beats .Eton , as anticipated. The Cornell boys are mostly afraid of Leander , while Courtney fears Trinity Hall. LONDON. July G. A reporter of the As- oclaled p'ess had an interview with Charles 1C. Courtney , coach of the Cornell crev.1 ilc said : "We may ns well tell you the truth. Flvo of the men are sick , nnd I am discouraged. During the past few days all our prospects have seemed to vanish. The boys are troubled with pains In their limbs and drowsiness , and the food they l > artako of does not scorn to nourish them. laRcr. who pulls No. 3 , nnd Fennell , who [ lulls No. 6 , nre the worst sufferers In this connection. The worst of It is that Fennell , who has been the life of the crew , keepIng - Ing them jolly nnd Ilshthcarted , Is now sick nnd glum. I am sick myself , but I say nothing In order not to discourage the boys. 1 attribute the trouble to the sudden change In the weather. Even Fred Colton , the coxswain , as bright a man as ever steered iv boat , Is suffering from depression. I have talked with several experts In boat racing regarding- our condition , and they all say Henley Is not a good place to train , and 1 am beginning to agree with them. " The Cornell crew started practice nt 1 o'clock this morning , and pulled over the course In 7 minutes nnd 4 1-5 seconds , an excellent showing. After this spin , Court ney said to a correspondent of the Asso ciated press : "We did well enough this morning , but Hager. Fennell and Freeborn were completely done up at the end of the rtrst half mile. I ask nothing moro than the boys were all right , as they were ten days ago. Then we should be able to Kay to our friends Irt America that we are sura winners. " The Impression prevails among experts that the Cornell crew had been overtrained. VAI.KYIUI : in snows nun STUFF Cup Challenger Outn ila llnr lirltlsli Tllval * In a llton nt Clyde. HUNTERS QUAY. July G. Valkyrie HI , Ailsa and Britannia started today in the .regatta of the Royal Clyde Yacht club , with a line southerly wind blowing. The llrst prize was 100 , second prize 30. The course was over a total distance of about fifty miles. The tlmo allowance granted by Vnl- kyrle to her competitors under the rules of the Yacht Racing association were : Allsa , two minutes forty-nine seconds ; Brit annia , four minutes two seconds. Allsa and Britannia were recalled for being over the line too soon. Valkyrie did splendidly In the beat to windward , nnd soon had a long lead on Allsa , leaving Britannia down tbu firth on the opposite tack. It was noticed on all sides that the cup challenger nulled very fast before the wind. Roughly speak ing , Valkyrie gained about nine "inlnutcs , taking- Into consideration the difference in times at the start , over Britannia in the first twenty-llvo miles of the course. Valkyrie finished at 4:31:10. : : The following were the times at the finish of 'Valkyrie's competitors : Britannia , 4:49:3GAilsa : ; , 4:50:57. : Consequently Valkyrie 'won T > y eighteen minutes twenty-six seconds actual "time , and by fourteen minutes twenty-four seconds corrected time , deducting Britannia's time allowance. Valkyrie's trial today against Britannia and Allsa is regarded as a fair one. There was a steady breeze , but the wind was not too strong for the small jib topsails. An * Authority on yachting said to the Associated press representative that Valkyrie would undoubtedly provo a "very wonderful ves sel in Hunt weather. The form displayed today places her far in front of Vigilant. Lord TDunraven , who was abroad Valkyrie , In an Interview expressed himself as thor oughly watlsfled with Valkyrie's perform ance. He said he did not know whether he would sail for America on Monday or not. Vnlkvrle may ) > e fitted for the ocean voyage and slip away for Amerlca4 us soon ns ready.

Later the commodore signalled Niagara , and Mr. Gould's yacht gave up the race , from which It was assumed that Zlnlta's protests re ferred to her. Previous to this Eucharls and Niagara had been sailing a very close race on the run up to the Powder buoy with their spinnakers to port. The 20-raters finished In the following times : Eucharls , 3:40:50 : : ; Zlnlta , 3:41:55 ; Dakotah. 3:54:05. : : I10LI.VUOODJ1MJ1CA1'J'lGKON SHOOT Twenty Expert * Start In the Ttnce for thn liter 1'nrto nnd Cup.
