TEXARKANA ARKANSAS WEDNESDAY EVENING OCTOBER 3 1894.
DEATH AND DEVASTATION.
A Fearful Wind Storm Strikes Lit-
tle Rock Causing Death and
Destruction.
Today's issue of the Arkansas
Gazette makes the following an-
nouncement of a terrible cyclone
which visited Little Rock last even-
ing:
A cyclone of gigantic proportions
struck this city at 7:35 o’clock last
evening and left disaster in ifs
wake. A brief but heavy rain pre-
ceded and followed the work of the
wind.
The storm came from the South-
west and swept nearly everything
in its path. Luckless pedestrians
and teamsters hastily sought hav-
ens of safety but the velocity of
the wind was terrific and the list of
the injured is consequently large.
Roofs signs and trees were toss-
ed about like paper. Some of the
most substantial brick buildings in
the city were either demolished or
badly damaged. The path of the
cyclone was not more than 200 feet
wide and its course was of a zigzag
nature. «
The drenching rain kept many
from venturing immediately out to '
learn the extent of the damage
and those who did sally forth par- j
ticularly in that part ot the dam-i
aged district on Main street from;
Markham to Third found the |
streets in an almost impassable con-
dition. Tin roofs awnings posts
wires and bricks were scattered
' about promiscuously.
The duration of the cyclone prop-
er was not over three minutes and
in that time many thousand dollars
in property were destroyed in this
city.
Intense solicitude for the safety
of their wives and children seized
business men who were in their
places of business at the time of
the storm. Their anxiety was
heightened by the fact that piles
of debris and loosened wires filling
the streets added to the heavy and
blinding rain rendered pedestrian-
ism extremely dangerous if not out
of the question altogether.
The police department perform-
ed the work of a relief corps and
the patrol wagon was utilihzed for
conveying injured persons to the
city hall as fast as they could be
■ discovered. Rumors of widespread
fatalities were thick and served to
cause anxiety among the relatives
and friends of those reported to
have been injured. Manv of these
rumors were exaggerated however
in being passed about. Pursuant
to these reports crowds of people
Hooked to the police headquarters
in quest of definite information
touching the identity of the wound-
ed. Those persons who ventured
out were careful to avoid the side
walks which were made dangerous
I by stray bricks and loosened signs
continually falling.
The above account of the disaster
'is substantantially the same as

given by the “Gazette” in its main
article descriptive of this fearful
visitation. For several hours after
the winds had begun to subside the
rain came down in torrents render-
ingall efforts at pedestrianism both
difficult and dangerous. Add to
this the fact that both telephone
and telegraph lines were prostrate
thoughout the city and it will be
readily understood that anything
like a full and correct account of
destruction to life or devastation to
property would be impossible so
soon after the storm. The follow-
ing list of casualities was continued
in the Gazette however in its
early morning edition:
DEAD.
Geo. Griffin white Jack Boyd
and child both colored.
INJURED.
Louis Rudolph slightly; Smith
and Williams Penitentiary guards
severely; Capt. Sam O. Smith and
Hon. C. T. Monroe Editor of Ar-
genta Times both seriously hurt
by falling timbers; Mrs. Sarah
Lynch and daughter Miss Hinkle
fatally injured. Later on a report
reached the Gazette office to the
effect that Dr. J. T. Ingate Second
Assistant Physician and two in-
mates names unknown of the Asy-
lum for the Insane had been killed
by the storm being caught under
falling walls of the buildings. The
destruction to property cannot as
yet even be approximated a num-
ber of valuable buildings being bad-
ly damaged. Among others were
the Penitentiary and Insane Asy-
lum.
RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT.
At a meeting of the “Gleaners'”
of State Line church Oct. 2d the
following resolutions on the death
of Mrs. P. A. Turner were adopted;
Whereas in the providence of
God Sister P. A. Turner has been
removed from our midst be it
Resolved Ist That we express
our deep sense of loss occasioned
by her death and respect for her
noble Christian character. We
know the change for her only means
the laying aside of the mortal to
be clothed in immortality—the en-
tering into that rest which awaits
all of God's children.
2d That our tender sympathies
are extended to the bereaved hus-
band and children of our departed
sister; and our prayers that the
Lord may help and comfort them
in their great sorrow.
3rd That a copy ot these resolu-
tions be sent to the family and to
the Texarkanian and the Texas

tion. Mesdames F. A. Trigo

WAR IN THE EAST.
Made the Text For an Eloauent Ser-
mon by a New York
Divine.
New York dispatches announce
the delivery of a novel but none
the less able and eloquent sermon
with the “War in the East” as its
text by Rev. McAuthur of Cal-
vary Church in that city on Sun-
day evening last. His discourse in
the main was as follows:
“The war now raging between
China and Japan is one of profound
interest to all intelligent statesmen |
and churchmen. The war is really
between barbarism and civilization
between hoary conservatism and
modern progress between heath-
enism and Christianity. The Eu-
ropean world has had no adequate
idea of the greatness actual pro-
progress of these oriental nations.
These nations are now arous-
ing themselves from the slumber
of centuries; they are putting on
their armor; they are girding them-
selves for a place on the great
chessboard of the world. The bat-
tle at the mouth of the Yalu river
startled Great Britian France
Germany Russia Italy America and
the world. It will create new dis-
cussion as to naval armaments. The
United States humbled in the pre-
sence of this Japanese victory.
Probably we could not have placed
in eastern waters during the time
s nee the war began a naval force
at all adquate to congreatly help
Secretary Herbert in his plans for
the building of the naval ships for
the United States Government.
1 his victory has started the confi-
dential advisers of every throne in
Europe. Japan has stepped at
once into line with the formost na-
tions of the world. She has strug
gled long against the conservative
element with in her own borders
but the progressive element has
triumphed. She has dared to
adopt the results of the highest
civilization of the world and she
has showed herself in the wise ad-
ministration of her international
affairs to be worthy of a place be-
side the most progressive nations of
the world. He educationol system
asks no apology when compared
with that of Europe and America.
“The nation that will not serve
God the Bible teaches us must
perish. We may add in harmony
with this truth as its natural con-
sequence that the nation that
will not obey the highest laws of
civilization of this day must perish.”
TRANS MISSISSIPPI CONGRESS.
The next session of the Trans-
Mississippi Commercial Congress
will convene in St. Louis on invita-
tion ot the Merchants’ Exchange of
that city on Monday November 26
1894 and will probably continue
four days. This date has been se-
lected with the special view of se-
curing the attendance of western
