Two hundred workmen are out of em
ployment at Rajaton nnd hundreds are In
dire straits, according to the report of
the Ralston relief committee. Every
manufacturing and business plant In the
little village was wiped out Sunday night
and assistance Is needed the worst way
In order for the business men to build
up tho plants and regain what small In
terests they had.
If the people are not forthcoming with
the necessary money with which tho
little city can be built up again, the 200
workmen will be out of work and will
have to come elsewhere and start over
again. But If the necessary money Is
sent tho workmen will be given employ
ment In billldlng up the little town nnd
nrter this is dono will be given back
their own Jobs. Following Is tho report

PETERSON FAMILY HAD
MIRACULOUS ESCAPE
Kred J. I'eterson, SSlf Chicago street,
owner of the. piano pierced by a timber,
which was pictured In The Bee Wednes
day, rotates tho following storm experi
ence through which he and his family
passed.
"Myself and three children, at tho ap
proach of the monster, started for the
cellar, but had no more than reached
the door, when the whole house caved,
In, pinning us In a small space some
three feet square, Immediately over the
furnace which contained a roaring fire.
Bursting water pipes sent Up clouds of
hot ateam, scalding my children and my
self. When It finally ceased we gained
passage to the open air through a space
about two feet square. 1 then sought
my wife who had started for the cellar
just ahead of us and found her pinned
to the staircase by a heavy Umber acros
her waist I finally managed to get her
from beneath the beam, which had com
pletely torn the skirt from her body
Her escape was miraculous and aside
from n mass of very severe bruises she
was all right."
Aged Widow With
Six Children is in
the Direst Need
An aged widow, the mother of six small
children, applied nt the Calvary Baptist
church relief station for aid. Her small
homo In the north part of town was
wiped away by the Btorfn. Sho Is living
with neighbors now. but will havo to
i move soon. Having tramped all the
morning In search of a small cottage,
she returned to the church after a fruit
less search.
The women In charge of tho station
suggested that Bho separate the children
and put them In the charge of people
who would care for. them.
t Covering her face In Her arms she
broke down and sobbod, pleaded with
the women not to separate her family.
She said the little tots were begging
the neighbors to "bring their mamma
home" and she would be unable to stand
having them separated.
The relief station provided clothing and
food for the destitute family. A daugh
ter aged 1 years, the only support of
the family, Is working In a factory at a
small salary. She Is In a weakened con
dition from the shock and excitement of
the storm and hardly able to work. The
small wages she receives Is all the
family has to exist on.

' . i
men ana women were running up and
down the streets, screaming,
"Firemen, were attempting to fight the
first fires tfclrt wercjnrlnglng up In htlf

for a little, while, afraid, and then J
said the prayers I learned when a little
shaver and went In among, the live wires
and helped."
