Tralna had their dlf i flcultles, though none entering Omaha met i with serious results. L Omaha and Douglas county were spared uch of the grief that fell to the adjoin ing counties and surrounding towns. In (he Ifclty the official loss was placed at about ta.500 to paving and the Ixard street aewer. trhe latter had a pipe hurst, which may yet prove a good thing In the way of solving he acrimonious controversy that has wated Wver it.

Put this jjUorjr ia deficient In one of the thrilling fea '' urea of its aubject. It could not depict .he acorea of narrow escapes from death pr serious injury. It does not, either, sur f. est the devastating sweep of the storm. A party of five Italian laborers employed m railroad work about six miles below '-'Council Bluffs at Island Park-saw the litorm approaching from Bellevue and ran L'or shelter. The storm overtook them, but fortunately none of the men was sertausly injured, though all received more or less flight Injuries. 1 A. Wright and his daughter and a Miss Wlcholl had a narrow escape. Aa the storm struck they ran to the cellar of their store in the old town of Bellevue. They had lust reached the cellar when the building jWas blown away from their heads. The I jloor of the structure caved in and they s-scaped Injury because they happened to kneeling close to a barrel in the cellar, .Which held up the debris. Mr. Wright lost his house and store and all he had In the .world. He was reported quite 111 Wednes day morning. He Is about 70 years old. I Story of Bellevae College. Bellevue college, though aerlously Injured, I ound cause for congratulation and thanks giving In the fact that Ita property losses Were covered by Insurance and not a stu dent or member of the faculty was Injured. The property loss to Clarke and Lowrle balls, the president's residence and other lormttorles, not one. of which escaped some Jlamage, waa placed at about 110,000, and it a offset by SX.OflO, ao distributed over the arloua buildings aa to cover each one. This la regarded a sremarkable in the ex- reme. The Inaurance waa held by Creigh, rlaldrlge St Co. Joseph Baldrlge said tie hougla the Insurance would entirely cover he losses, Scarcely had the storm done Its work at the college until an army of faithful per sons waa at work clearing away the debrla and preparing for reconstruction and re habilitation. The atudenta, under the lead ership of President Wadaworth, jumped Into the task early Wednesday morning of over coming the effects of the tornado and made uch great headway by night that It waa (announced class room work would be re sumed this morning.' Presldeat Wadsvrorth Talks. It Is a rem tikable thing 'hat no atudenta per Injured In all this wreckage," said Dr. JWedsworth. "With all our students and snost of them in these buildings which you Carry Them With You Don't Wait Till VSiAUt Cathartics are. taken at bedtime, be cause they cause griping. You want v it to occur at night. So you go through ths day with a head ache a dullness. And the day Is lost. That is wrong because it is unnecessary. There is a laxative that never gripes that gives instant help when you need It. A laxative in vest-pocket boxes, so one may always have it ready. That laxative is Cascarets.

It la a good thing that It is warm weather, because the heating plant la put out of service by the loss of the smoke stack." Rev. E. H. Jenks and Robert Dempatar of Omaha, trustees of the college, were on the campus to lend a helping hand. Many other Omaha people went down. Words of praise were heard on all sides for the splendid nerve and coolness shown by the college girls during the storm. They went to the basement of their halls and listened to counsel, although some wanted to go Into the open. Had they not listened to 'wise counsel they would have been caught In the debris from Clarke hall and many probably would have been hurt. The Japanese cook In the kitchen at the Fontanelle hall rushed madly out In the storm to go to the rescue of Mrs. Craln and her baby. Mrs. Craln Is the wife of the business manager of Bellevue college and the cook thought Mr. Craln was In Omaha, so his first thought waa for the rescue of Mrs. Craln and the baby. When the Storm Came I'p. Chester Jonks and several of the s:l dents went onto the hill west of the col lege to watch the storm aa it was passing over Fort Crook. The storm swerved and came in their direction, but they escaped Injury by lying flat on the ground. From their position they could see the roofs be ing torn from the buildings at Fort Crook and also saw several houses to the west blown to pieces. The boys, who- had gone to the hill to the weat of the campus for safety, said they were able to see three distinct funnels traveling along which were lifting and twisting everything which hsppened to get In the way. These funnels, probably accounted for the different directions In which the roofs of the buildings were thrown. Six of the atudenta thought it would be morn anfe to get out of the building and lie flat on the campus. "The six got hold of one big tree for protection, when the wind blew the tree away. One young woman waa taking her bath when the fury of -the gale struck the hall, fcnd she was forced to call for help and clothes before she could get out. She was rescued. Prof. Jones generally has a music class In the room at the top story of Clarke hall He had postponed his class because of the ball game and consequently was saved an he might have, been In that room when the storm sirucK. coining or tne room was left. Old Structures Stand. The old Bellevue court house, which wss the first capital of the state of Nebraska; still stands, although right to the wake of the storm. It Is built of stone and brick and has stood since the early "SOs". being the meeting place of the first territorial legis lature. In the old city hall yard, the building where the first territorial legislature met the bottom part of the treea were Intact but the top of the huge cottonwoods were cut off as though trimmed. ine nouse or Mrs. Estes. which la sit uated on the edge of the cliff near the river, was blown over the cliff and com pletely demolished.

DETAILS OF LOSS AT LOT IVIL1.K Oar Killed, Two Fatally lalared aad Great Property Loss. SPRINGFIELD, Neb., May W.-tSpecIsl Telegram.) A tornado forming near the German Lutheran church, five miles South west of here struck Louisville about 4 o'clock Tuesday afternoon and damaged residence and business property to the ex tent of about $75,0iiO. The first effect of the storm's fury was felt at a clay pit, two miles southwest of Louisville, operatod by the Avery Brick company, where the 8-year-old son of the foreman, E.l Hester, was Instsntly killed. The residence was de molished and Mrs. Hester and another of her children wer so aerlously Injured by flying timbers that their recovery Is In doubt. The storm cloud moved slowly toward Louisville and Its approach was noted sev eral minutes before It struck the north part of the business section, which was directly In the path of the tornado and this saved a great many of the business houses. The west side of Main Street sustained the greater damage. Alloway'a livery barn was wrecked and six horses were burled under the debris, but none were badly hurt. A small dwelling adjoining the barn was over turned and blown to the rear of another building. The fronts of John Burns' tem perance hall, Drake's restaurant and the Farmers' meat markets were blown out. The Bank of Commerce building was badly shaken and may have to come down. The Burlington depot Is a complete wreck, only a small portion of the building being left. The semaphore was blown down, but th operator had crawled undera small culvert nearby and escaped uninjured. A string of box cars were blown off the track, the Free Methodist church was overturned and rests on Its roof within six Inches of the beck door of a nearby dwelling. The two barns belonging to Charles Phelps were destroyed, but his house was untouched. George Woods cashier of the local bank, had Just " completed a fine barn on his premises which was totally destroyed. The only person Injured In the village, beside the Hester family, waa Mrs. Masters, an aged woman residing near the Burlington depot, her arm being broken by falling tlmbera when the storm struck her houfte. Main street was lined on either side by large trees, these were hurled Into the street, adding greatly to the wrecked ap pearance of the town. A relief train was run down from Flstts mouth, and people came from all the nearby towns under the Impression that help was needed, but owing to the fortunate escape of the townspeople their Assistance was not required. At the Lyman ft Woodruff sand pits, which are operated by Loulavllle laborers, considerable damage was done. Seven loaded sand care were lifted from the track and thrown into an adjoining pond. A horse was carried nearly 200 yards and dropped to the ground uninjured. A por tion of an elevator was blown away ,but no one was Injured there. Many Interesting experiences were told and numerous peculiarities of the tdrnado's work Is coming to light. Most of the mer chants and others stayed in their places of business, holding the doors against the wind and hoping for the beat, which was all they could do. Many Uvea undoubtedly would have been lost If the storm had been as severe in that part of town aa it was near the depot. A man driving Into town Just aa the wind came was blown from hia buggy Into a large tree and just then the tre blew down and he was deposited on the ground with out a scratch. It ia a hard blow for Louisville and some time will be required for its cltlxena to recoyer from, the shock, but ' the town's progresslveness will soon assert Itself and new bulldlnga replace the ones destroyed. A large force Is already at work clearing the streets and private Individuals who lost their homes and other property are receiving assistance, both financial and otherwise, so all the sufferers will be taken care of. All telephone and telegraph lines were blown down, but all the companies ave forcea of men at repair work and communication will soon be re-established. RAILROADS FEEL THE EFFECTS Several of Them Have Wsihosli, bat one Reports Fatality. t Missouri Pacific railroad officials re ported that while their bridge at Louisville was "somewhat twisted and damaged by the storm, prompt work had put them In condition to permit trains passing over It. The evening passenger to Weeping Water and . Auburn, wtilch passed Louisville shortly after the storm, got over without trouble and returned Wednesday morning. Three freight trains were also passed over the bridge during the night. The damage to Missouri Paclflo prop erty at Louisville was limited to freight cars being blown Into the aand pits and liver. The Burlington road had a washout on the Iowa side between Council Bluffs and Paclflo Junction, which made it neces ssry to run all trains by Plattsmouth from 8 o'clock, Tuesday evening until about 10 o'clock Wednesday morning, when the tracks were repaired and passed the trains to Kansas City. Burlington passenger No. 1, which runs by Plattsmouth, Louisville and Ashland and passed LiOulsviue aDout S a. in., was reported as being on time when It reached Ashland, while the fast mall from Chi cago arrived In Omaha half an hour late Hail at tne Burlington station was so hard that It broke the tile on the roof, the first time the root haa been Injured by any storm atnee the station waa erected. Trains at Vnlon station from the west were generally on time, but almost all trains from the east were late. Repairs were made on the Rock Island tracks dur ing the night and early morning and the trains passed over In safety. The wash out on the Great Western was near Car roll, while the Rock Island was out near Neola.
