HALF AN "HOUR OF HIGH WIND.
Sudden Storm of Wind and Rain in
\Visconsin and Its Results—Heartwarmi-
ing Scenes—Terrible Anxiety of th!
Citizens—Much Other Damage.
WEST SUPERIOR, Wis., July 17.—At 4
O'clock yesterday afternoon the fiercest
electrical storm ever known here, accom-
panied by a gale lasting more than five
minutes, destroyed a number of build-
ings, and in the collapse of one of them
five lives are known to have been lost.
Perhaps as many more bodies lie under
the ruins.
Those known to be killed are: Herman
Roussey, plasterer; John Laurer, painter;
John Schofield, plasterer; Charles Lucius,
lather. One unidentified.
The injured are: John Long, legs broken
and back injured, will probably die; John
Brown, both legs broken; William Semple,
internal injuries: Assistant Fire Chief
Kellogg, arm broken, back injured. The
storm gathered in the northwest and al-
most at the same moment the rain began
falling the wind changed from northeast
and blew with terrific from the storm’s
quarter. The air was filled with flying
dibris for a moment or so, and a magnifi-
cent electrical display lit up the gloom
that was almost as black as night, and
then cleared almost as suddenly as it had
' darkened. The force of the storm was
spent along Third street by ~the water
front. At, the corner of Tower avenue was
a. small wooden structure, which was the
first building struck and was utterly de-
molished.
Three blocks east of this point was a
large three-story frame building in course
of construction. Carpenters, painters and
plasterers were at work to the number
of twenty-five. When the storm came
up, Head Carpenter Gross called to his
men to get out of the building, and
twelve of them jumped from windows.
At the same time anumber of passers-
by ran into the structure to escape the
storm. As they entered the building,
without an instant‘s tremor or warning,
it collapsed, burying seventeen men. The
structure did not move a foot from its
foundation. It simply flattened out as
though by a terrible blow from above.
Three tinbers ont he roof remained where
they were and escaped serious injury,
though the fall was thirty«eight feet.
Hundreds saw she catastrophe. and the
work of rescue began at once. The ruins
stood six feet above the ground and the
roof seemed to cover the whole, greatly re-
tarding the work of rescue. It was an
hour before the first body was recover ed.
Wives and children of the buried men tore
frantically at the broken timbers in vain
effort to find their loved ones beneath, and
police had to carry the women away by
force before the Fire Department could
work.
At5 o’clock the body of Herman Rous-
sey was found inasitting position, bent
nearly double. John Law was found on
his back with four timbers lying across
him. Scofield was found on the third
floor still alive. He died as soon as the
weight was lifted from his body. It was
found that hislback was broken. It was
over an hour before another body'was
found. Of the two injured men who were
taken out, Senrble was wedged between
two upright timbers that saved his life.
The bodies of Lucius and an unknown
man were found in the wreck of a room
on the ground floor. While the work of
rescue was going on, rain and lightning
with high wind had set in, and the vio-
lence of the storm became terrific, forcing
the men to leave the work of rescue. It is
probable that all the bodies will be recov-
ered before morning. Contractor Gross
says that no more men are beneath the
ruins, but that is hardly possible. Five
men escaped miraculously with slight in-
jury. The building was a flimsy afiair.
~ "" MR. BLAINE’S HEALTH.
The Secretary Still Improving—Trying
to Get Tanned.
BAR HARBOR, Me,, July 17.—The same
routineofdrives and more drives for Mr.
Blaine was varied yesterday with a. walk,
which was taken after getting out of the
society swirl, and occupied nearly two
hours, though several stops were made
for rest and observation on the way. The
farms are new in full glory of crops and
the woods have not yet become so dusty
as t9 ar the'r surgppgxgpits. ins-M .
Mr. lain 8.5% that if he cOuld only get
tanned, instead of blistering like a school-
girl, his face would be a better index
of his improved health than it is now,
but as it is a way the sun always had with
him he is forced to submit, disdaining the
use of walnut juice and other artifices to
tan colors so much in vogue among the
country complexion hunters here. Not
only does Mr. Blaine hold his grip on
what health and strength he has gained
since coming to Bar Harbor, but he adds
to both every day. '
A Brooklyn Boy Shot.
CHAUTAUQUA, N. Y., July 17.—Joseph

mother.

Blomna ‘Villl Exciting Incidents.
ASBURY PARK. .lu'y 17.—-\Irs. J ames Lo-
gan of West Asbury Park caused consid-
erable excitement yesterday afternoon ‘by
threatening to kill James A. Bradley, the
well known temperance advocate who -
founded Asbury Park. Mrs. Logan went
to Newliu’s hardware store, ‘on Main
street, about noon, and purchased a heavy
revolver. She a-ked the clerk in the store
to load the weapon for l.er, and said she _
wanted to shoot a dog which howled at
night. The eicrk loaded the revolver, and
Mrs. Logan paid for it and left. This af-
ufternoon she, wont to Park Hall, in which
Mr. Bradley has his ofiice. and asked to
see him. She was told that he was down
on the beach. With a dramatic flourish
Mrs. Logan drew the revolver, and, swing-
ing the loaded weapon, said she would go
to the beach and put some bullets through
Mr: Bradley’s head.
“He has injured my baby boy,” the wo-
man screamed, “and I will kill him.” Mrs.
Logan then started for the beach with her
revolver. Policeman Jacob Borden over-
took her, and, after an exciting struggle,
took the weapon from her and placed her
under arrest. Mr. Bradley refused to
make any charge, and Mrs. Logan was al-
lowed to go home on bonds furnished by
’ herself.
James Logan, the son of the woman,
was arrested by the Overseer. of the Poor
of the township of Neptune a few days
ago on the charge of being the father of
the unborn child of “Lydia Humphrey, a
Swedish servant girl. At his: trial William
Bishop testified that he visited several
houses in Long Branch with Miss Hum-
phrey. Mr. Bradley sent to Long Branch
to find out if Bishop had been there With
Miss Humphrey. Bishop heard of Mr.
Bradley’s investigation and disappeared.
Mrs. Logan claims that Mr. Bradley wants
to ruin her son.
