"Mr daughter. felT roan of age,
waa afflicted with a terrible itching of
the hands which was so bad at Bight
that she was unable to leep. She
scratched herself until she bled. The

The smnkestaek on the gre n houses in
Hsnseom park went down under th wind,
crashing through the glass, and not only
making heating Impossible, but admitting
gusts of coll wind, which will probably
cause heavy loss to the florists.
The henging street eleetrlc lights were a
target for the wind, and all over the city
they were blown down. Nearly every one
on South Tenth street gave way before the
cyelorlc pressure.
Few street gas lights could withstand
the li'gh wind and early in the evening
these gave way, the mantels either be'ng
broken or the wind being of sufficient
force to blow cut the lights.

ideratlon to real things happening on

Thla was a compelling storm, that re
fused to share the spot light with anything
or anybody. It held all outdoors, was om
niscient, at the cornera, and pally with the
coal man. Indoors It was subject of de
bate, but no one disputed Its superiority to
all previous storms. It was conceded on
all side to be the stormiest blow that has
yet visited these latitudes.
Misty, Londonny, all of the early part of
Thursday reminded people of "the time w
were abroad." It wasn't bad Juat unsea
sonable, disagreeable, another kind of
weather than that Omaha people are ac
customed to at this particular time of the
year.
Starts Yllh Rain.
Along toward 4 o'clock a gentle trickle
of rain atarted from the forbidding face
of the firmament. Thla steadily Increased,
until presently timid folk began te display
umbrellas. Soon these were reefed, then
close furled; for the raindrop took on
penetrating power a the wind gathered
vlclouaneea. A man paaalng an alley on
Fourteenth atreet blindly ran into a amall
torrent of water busily going Its way on
the business of street cleaning. (Tom
Flynn amllea when he thinks of It.) He
leapt, and leapt again, and then his hat
blew off and he cast all caution to the
winds as he tore through the street In a
wild chase, with the wind boosting.
At this time the storm waa on for keeps
so grueling In It method of attack that
soon the tlmldeat modesty proved no bar
to flitting displays of hosiery as women
raced for atreet cara and protection. The
passing aighta put an old sailor man in
mind of a rainy blow off Ekilllgalee, Just
outside Thunder Bay, In the great lake
region, when every rag was whipping and
anapping like giant whips. Scurrying of
ship at sea Is ponderous compared to
the movements exhibited by wayfarers
dodging for shelter Just before supper, or
dinner, .time Thursday evening. Many
blessed the man that invented street cars.
Snow Cata In -ow.
Before I the rain had begun to congeal up
yonder between here and high heaven.
Shortly real anow wa falling, not directly
downward, but every old way that would
add to the dlssgreeableness. It was cold
snow, and wet with wickedness. Had It
come In volume It could hardly have been
worse. Ixose things banged In the wind,
the temperature fell with every passing
minute and people ran, while furnaces were
made to get busy without any regard to
the destruction of money wads.
One man heard of hung a 3 hat on a nail
on hia back porch to let It drip. When he
went to take It In it had gone out frolick
ing with the atorm, and ia still going. Other !
things also took to the vortex, and are
loat (rem about every exposed place In
every corner of th city.

each. To count the coat of those broken
in Omaha and South Omaha last night will
be the work of Jays. Insurance offices
carrying these rlska were ki'pt busy all
morning receiving reports of destruction.
H. K. Palmer & Son carry a large line of
thia claaa of Insurance. So do the firms
of Martin Bros, and the Urennan-Love
company. From each of these offices re
porta are that the loss Involved In broken

the windows destroyed will go close to f.,
possibly more. Individual firms will suffer
little loss for th glass actually broken, aa
plat glass Insurance is today universal.
Laa Office Business.
As soon aa they were opened fur business
Frklsy morning the Midland Olasa and
Paint company and the Kennard Glass and
Paint company began to receive reports of
damage and ordera for new glass. These
ordera cam not only from local losers, bat
also from about all the Nebraska and Iowa
town that look to Omaha for their sup
plies. Orders were In before noon from Ne
braska City, Tekamah, Plattamouth, Blair,
Shenandoah, Ia.. and numerous other places.
Indicating a widespread path of destruction
In the wake of the record blow.
"" Rask Orders Heavy.
Up to noon th Midland Glass and Paint
company had received rush order for over
U worth of large glass. Tha Kennard
company bad ordera for about 12.000 worth.
KacU of the companies said th edge
had only been touched so far, aa the out
lying towna are to be heard from yet.
Id the supplying of small glass the Fuller
Glass and Paint company and the Omaha
Glasa and Paint company do a very large
share of the business. They deal a I moat
exclusively with the Insurance and th

Tlbe Story of Nebraska
The Omaha Bee has planned to publish "The Story of Nebraska," not
the story of the prairie schooner, the sod house, the trapper or the fur trader
but of prosperous, progressive, busy, up-to-the-minute Nebraska. Many
of the new and some of the older settled counties have been making prog
ress so quietly that the world at large is not aware of their achievements.
Our object is to bring all loyal and progressive citizens into closer touch in the commercial and social
relations, and to work for the development of the natural resources of the state, to foster and build up
manufacturing industries, and by every consistent effort encourage the employment of skilled labor and
improve the conditions of the laboring classes. The story will give only a glimpse, a mere outline. The
reader will be shown among the print just enough to give him a general idea of the state. Its opportuni
ties to the dairyman, and its openings to the home maker. The free rural mail box and the telephone pol
are crowding the frontier.' The wolf and the wilderness have retreated. If during her'early history Ne
braska has gurprised her own people, surely a brighter future awaits them.
There will be a little about the towns and cities, just now somewhat
misunderstood and misjudged, and something about the rural districts, the
farm and t h stock ranch. Here and there will be found a few figures, not
many, just a few, as measurements and for the information of those who
enjoy such things.
i
It will tell the achievements of a people, who in less than half a century have wrought ont of a
boundless prairie a progressive, productive state. It will give in brief the new life in the new country,
the swift passing of events, the possibilities of advancement and pleasure. These articles will be fully illus
trated and will appear in the Sunday Bee from week to week.
Next Sunday-Gage County.
