George Inglish, at that time edi- =
tor of the Leader, gave his de-
scription of that memorable event
and went more into the details of
the sight than the Channing

The clouds hung thick above
the town last Tuesday evening,
and appeared to concentrate the
force in the southwest Parties
on our streets noticed the dark
and thickening clouds, and wit-
nessed the formation of a real
cyclone. It struck the town
about 6 o'clock aud passed rapid-
ly toward the northeast.
The first damage was to Sher-
ff Xeeiey's barn at the county
jail. The barn was turned bot-

house was slightly damaged and

"Thedford's Black-Draught
is the best all-round medicine
I erer used," writes J. A.
Steelman, of Pattcmville, Texas.
"1 suffered terribly with liver
troubles, and could get no relief.
The doctors said I had con-
sumption. I could not work at
all. Finally I tried
BLACK-
DRAUGHT
and to my surprise, 1 got better,
and am to-day as well as any
man." Thedford's Black-
Draught is a general, cathartic,
vegetable liver medicine, that
has been regulating irregulari-
ties of the liver, stomach and
bowels, for over 70 years. Get
a package today, insist on the
genuine—Thedford's. E-70
