Seldom hits the same storm caused havoc and loss of life in so widely separated localities ns Lake Gervais and Lake Pepin. The first named is a small body of water five miles north of St. Paul, while Lake Pepin is simply a broadening of the Mississippi river between Minnesota and Wisconsin, many miles further south. The storm at Gervais was a veritable funnel-shaped cyclone, terrific in its force, but limited in its sphere of action.

For some miles in either direction havoc was wrought to farm houses, barns and trees, while some people were injured. But it was jnst on tho southern shore of Lake Gervais that The Element)) Found Their Here in a little valley, near a charming lake resort, tho cyclone burst, killing six persons at least, and possibly a half dozen more. The cone-shaped cloud swept everything before it, carrying a number of horses into the lake, along with the bodies of three persons not yet recovered. The path of the cyclone left an awful wake of barren country so piled up with broken trees and debris as to be almost impassable. At Lake Pepin, the bluft's of the Mississippi rose hundreds of feet high on either side, forming a gorge or canyon, down which the hurricane swept with resistless force.

At tho point where the boat, Loaded with Happy capsized, carrying fully four score down to death, a long sand bar runs out into the lake. Here, even in comparatively mild storms, tho waves run very high. When the storm-beaten boat was driven up near this bar the fury of tho wind was at its height and it was blown over by the wind and engulfed by the monstrous waves as if it had been a fragile egg shell. Yesterday morning the little town of Red Wiilfe, where so many of the excursionists lived, was in the midst of deepest mourning, all business being abandoned and the stores closed. In the homes of many families lie the silent dead, while others wait in dreadful suspense for the latest tidings of the missing.

EXCITEMENT SUBSIDING. The Wreck of thu Stoiuuer Sou W.ing HUM Now a Prominent Place In the History of thu GreateNt CiitiiHtrophe That Kver llefoH lattice City. LAKE CITY, July excitement consequent upon tho awful events of Sunday night has nearly and tho scene oi' the wreck of the steamer Sea Wing has now a prominent place in the history of tho greatest catastrophe that ever occurred in this vicinity. All day long tho rescuing crows wero at work at the wreck in tho continued search for bodies of tho victims, Two small steamers attached lines to the overturned Sea Wing and succeeded in hauling hur nearer the shore, where, during tho day, the corps of. volunteers with axes and picks succeeded in cutting away all of tliu inner walls and partitions of the two decks of tho boat, leaving tho bare hull, which will probably lie lilown With Dynamite, Since yesterday morning thu rescning parties succeeded in taking seventeen more bodies from tho wrecked steamer, which, in addition to the fifty-two taken to Red Wing, one picked np on the shore of the lake neur this city and another a mile, above the wreck, brings tlio total bodies recovered up to seventy-one, Tho body picked up near Lake City was that of a woman, yet unidentified.

The one found above the wreck was that of John Peterson, of Red Wing. All day long the first battery of artillery, of St. Paul, have been firing over tho late'wreck at intervals of five minutes in thu hope of raising some of tho Itoilic'D Yet In thu Itoltmu of tako, away from the direct vicinity of (lie Tho number known to have been saved is now estimated at about seventy-live, which leaves about people thought to have perished in tho wreck. This number will undoubtedly be diminished as full returns come in from those who escaped. From all that can be learned the storm did not seri- affect; any other locality than Hie vicinity of Luke City.

Some of the crops nearby, which were in the path of the hurricane, wero more or less damaged by wind and hail. The damage to buildings in Lake City will probably exceed all told, and may fall cou- 8id.ertjib.ly below that. The bodies taken out were vemoye4 to Red Winy yesterday evening by a steamer, where they mil fee ideutJfM eoon, as SAW THE CONE-SHAPED CLOUD 'IIP In the North And Sought Shelter lit the Forttmnfc ni tho Mercy of the Storiii. MINNEAPOLIS, July minutes before the cyclone made its appearance tho members of the Good and Schttmier families and several patties visiting them were cither rowing or sailing on tho lake or sitting on the outside of their cottages. Threatening clouds were arising and the cottages were sought.

In the Good cottage were thirteen persons. In the Sohumier resi- were nine persons. Tho heavens grew darker and old Good, seeing the cone-shaped cloud far in tho north, predicted a cyclone. All of the inmates of the Good residence, with the exception of Dr. Eaohus, went down into the small collar under tho cottage.

Dr. Eachtts was urged by his wife to go too, but he refused. The wind came Tho Coming over a hill a half mile north of the cottages, twisting huge trees out of tho ground and carrying 'them forward pell mell in its path. The doctor had seen enough and he made for the cellar. Soon there was a crash.

The barn belonging to Mr. Good had house, both going to pieces on the little colony of safety-seelters. They were all more or less injured. During the storm they remained in the cellar and were compelled to take a thorough drenching. To the people in the two Schurmeir residence Fortune Dealt it Wome Illow.

Their places of shelter were twisted to pieces by the first anil most violent gusts, and none of them having previously sought safety in the cellars were at the mercy of the storm. George Miller, of the First National bank, Paul, was carried forty feet and thrown to the earth; and killed. His wife carried some distance and found buried under the wreck with serious injuries. Mrs. J.

H. Schumeir, Rev. Phaefel and Charles Schumeir were evidently hurled into the lake, where they were drowned, as their bodies could not be found among the debris. Mr. J.

H. Schur- uieir, Hub Sfthnrmeir and wife and the female servants Avere carried but a short distance and landed under some trees. THE GLASS WORKERS.

A Thrilling un the Delaware, Ijiivkiiwiiiinn and Three Olrl.i Saved vi 1 from Dentil. WILKESBAHKE, July Walters, a passenger engineer on the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western railroad, had a horrifying, as well as thrilling, experience yesterday morning. He was running thirty-five miles an hour, and when ho entered the stretch just before reaching Binghamton bridge he was horrified to find three blackberry girls on the structure. He reversed his engine and then fainted. The fireman took charge of the throttle.

When the engine was within thirty yards of the girls, one of them with Itcmarkahli; Presence of Mind jumped to the edge of the bridge, stretched forward fiat on her face and swung herself clear from the track, hanging on the end of the ties over the rushing waters beneath. In a moment other girls followed her example, and just as the train swept by the last of the trip swung clear of the bridge, while with amazement and horror plainly stamped on their countenances, the passengers and trainmen watched with anxiety the human forms swaying to and fro in mid-air. As soon as the train stopped the passengers and crow rushed back to the scene and rescued the girls from their terrible plight.
