DEATH IN TIE CYCLONE An Oklahoma Town l’ract'cally Oblit- erated by the Storm. MANY CORPSES RECOVERED. Numbers of Others Are Supposed to Be In the Ruins—Unfurtunatcs Penucd In the \‘a’rcck and Burned to Death—JIundI-eds Injured. Guthrie, O. T., April 1. -—Reports from Chandler state that 45 persons were killed and 200 badly hurt by the cyclone at that place. A message was received here from Chandler asking for more help. The surrounding towns were notified and rescuing parties have started for the scene of disaster, which is 45 miles away. The entire business portions of the town burned after being wrecked. It is now thought that there are 25 or 30 more dead bodies in the burned ruins. Some of the dead are J. \Voodward and wife, Mr.‘ and Mrs. W‘oodman, Mrs. Henry Mitchell, Mrs. Thomas Smith, Attorney John Lawson, F. De Moff, Emma Dressinger, D. C. Johnson and wife, Mrs. Philip Johnson and child, Mrs. Dr. Lee, A. W. Keller and wife, unknown woman and babe, five un- known children. Among the fatally injured are Ar- thur Jewett, Peggy Johnson, Mrs. Frank M’Cann, D. C. Gooding, Maggie Reaves, Andrew Asher and wife, Mrs. Cullum, Jennie VVoodsworth. The following are reported among the injured: John M’Cartney, brother— in-law of United States Marshal Nagle; E. N. Niblack and father, John Fister, Mrs. Emma Foster, two daughters of County Treasurer Ulam, Samuel VVin— throp, George M’Henry. An UnfOrtunate Family“ John Woodyard and wife of Eldorado, Kan., visiting there, were instantly killed, their little daughter was fatally crushed and their son badly hurt. James Dawson of Lincoln, Neb., a lawyer, was burned to death. The scene is awful, and several of the injured are raving crazy. The main street of the town is a mass of dead and injured people and teams, wagons. bug- gies, trees and debris from the build- ings. Chief Justice Dale, who was holding court, ran with his wife to a hollow and held her behind a large bowider, and both were unhui‘t. Every building but: one on the main street was wrecked and burned, includ- ing the courthouse, postoffice, News and Democrat offices, Lincoln County bank, New York store and several hotels. Several of the wrecked buildings took fire, and the debris was burning fiercely at last accounts. Many of the injured have been burned to death while pinned fast under the debris. In the building, it is reported, five in— jured people were burned to death, and at another place the bodies of three un- known children have been taken out. All of the physicians of the town, save one, met death in the storm. Nearly all the physicians of Guthrie have gone to the scene of the disaster in wagons. It was about 6 o’clock when a terrific tornado, followed by hail and flood, -swept through Chandler. Three-fourths 0f the residences and business houses were totally wrecked cr badly dam— aged. Ruin and Darkness, The courthouse, in which Chief Jus— tice Dale was holding court, was taken off its foundation. Darkness at once came on and the work of rescue was carried on under the greatest difficul- ties. The telephone office was destroyed, and at 10 o‘clock last night a telephone was connected with the wire two miles away and a message was sent here for assistance. That connection has since been destroyed. Chandler was a town of 1,500 people. It was built on a hill, in thick timber, and the mass of torn trees and wreck— ed houses made it impossible to reach the injured in the dark. On every side could be heard groans and cries for help. hen Fire. Texas Feels It Too. Fort Worth, April 1.——Another cy- clone passed over this city, this time catching the south side. The chimney of the Mulkey Memorial church was blown down. and, falling on the par- sonage, crushed in the roof. Several houses were unroofed, and, the houses of ex—County Treasurer Thomas Brat- ton and Mrs. Cline were blowu from their supports. Mrs. Cline is reported injured. A negro church in the extreme southeastern part of town was blown down. So far no loss of life has been reported. Other Towns Damaged. Kansas City, April 1.—Reports re- ceived here indicate that the cyclone ~which destroyed the town of Chandler, O. 'I‘., also passed across the state of Kansas, though in less destructive form. Florence, Kan, reports a severe Windstorm that blew down several buildings. Great Bend reports a heavy wind, accompanied by hall and rain. Wichita experienced the heaviest rain ever known there, accompanied by wind and hail. v SUBSTITUTION the FRAUD ol‘ the day.

Woodworth, of 1 Burbank street, South Norwal-k, says: “I have been troubled with catarrh for. some time; my head and nose seemed pretty well stuffed up, and the quantities of mat- ter that run into my throat at night, would cause me to hawk, spit, and often gag in the morning, before I could clear my throat. I got some California Ca- tarih Cure at Plaisted’s drug. store, and already these symptoms are very much better. My throat is finely free from all matter in the morning, and my whole head feels much clearer.” California Catarrh Cure is for you, too.
