"But I don't see just how the electrio current gets to the wheels ". ; J 'Well, there's a little jimjiaimer that runs from the grip or plow to the axles, and the current runs through little whatyoucallems and is connected by some kiud of j m cranks to tbe wheeU; when the man turns on the. electric current it shoots through those kadoogins and the tankeytour starts tbe wheels." "Ob, yes; I understand. But how does he stop the car ?" "Just Bnekes that jigamaree around to the Itft, light up against tbe whatisit, gives the brake a twist, and there you are." ; Then tbey got iff at the corner drug store.

Myers preceded the train a little distance at the junction and as he started to cross the track one foot was caught in ths frog, be fell and the engine and sevvral of the cars ran over his body, cutting the man in halves, the entire length of his body up to his head, which was severed from tbe body and rolled to one side. Myers was on bis homeward run, but the young wife that awaited hia coming was overcome with grief and wae prostrate when his mangled form reached her later in the day. It was a horrible death.

Ri ley Williams, colored, 75 years old, crushed under roof, died tonight. The iojured have all been re. moved to the hospital or to tbeir homes. Five others are fatally in jured and will die. The fatalities are likely to be much greater when reports bave been received from the Sea Islands. The damage to ship ping ii heavy. Tbe steamer Gov ernor Silford, which left Beaufort, S C, for Savannah Tuesday morn ing, went ashore on Daafuskie Idland and is lying 100 yards high and dry island. Tbe steamer Star went to ber assistance this morning, but has not re'nrned. Mnch anxiety is felt for the tug Cynthia, which left here before tbe storm with a barge in tow for Brunswick. The barks Cuba and Rosenias, which drifted from their moorings and went ashore, it is believed may be savtd. The schooners Island City and B D Metcalf, which went aehore on their way to sea, were damaged. The bark Kylemore broke away from her anchorage at quaran tine and is lying against a training wall half a mile away. The loss of small Bailing vesiels is heavy. Up wards of 20 are reported ashore in tbe marshes and creeks aud on tbe beach at the mouth of the river. Most of these were small coasting vessels plying between Savannah and neighboring ports. The full extent of the damage ami tbe loss of life will not be known for. several days. The centra of tbe storm passed east of Savannah and struck inland, north of here. The damage on the South Carolina coast is believed to be heavy, but so far little loss of life is reported. The rice planta. tions oa the Carolina side of tbe Sa vannah river aud along the river west of here suffered heavily. The rice in the fields was little injured, being coyered with water, but tbe storehouses and mills were wrecked, and the rice stored is a total loss. The plantations on the. Oeechee and Altamaha rivers on the Geor gia side also were heavily damaged. The damage in tbe city will prob ably exceed $1,000,000. Hardly a building escaped, and thousands of houses are roofbss. The work of clearing away tbe wreckage from the streets went on all night. The parks are pitiable sights. Tall trees are torn np by the roots or are broken in two, and lie in swaths across shrubbery and flowers. The ruin is comple'e. The historic Bethsada Orphan Home, founded by George Whit Held a century and a half ago, seven miles in the country from Savannah, was heavily damaged, but no loss of life occurred. Lighthouse Keeper Evans reached he city in a boat late this afternoon with the first news from Tybee Island, at the mouth of the Savan vah riyer. The storm, there was sevt-re. All the hotels are damaged and the pavalllons of the Hotel Ty bee and South Eid Hotel, both arge structures, we're carried away. The Chatham Artillery Club house, at the south end of the beach, war unroofed. Th cc.tuges frnntinc he beach for a distance of fiur miles are all dumnged. Bruuswick, Ga, was wrecked by the hurricane.

During its continuance foroue hour and a half, it equalled, if not mailed in intensity, as long as it lasted, its memorable predecessor. RICHMOND ITS THE STORM AREA Richmond. Va , Sept. 30. Tbe most violent wind-storm ever known in this section burst upon the city last night about 9 o'clock and raged for some two boars. The wind was acoompanied by rain and the blow was from tbe south-west. Trees were uprooted, fences blown down, windows blown in and bouses no- roofed in every direetion. On Broad street tbe roof of Jacobs' clothing store was blown in on some sleeping children., and one of them seriously hurt. The Second Btptist church was damaged. Tbe sume story of the storm comes to the Dispatch from all over the State east of the Blue R dge. Birui and small outhouses were swept away, trees uprooted, residences un roofed, wirt-3 prostrated and general wreckage prevails. Tuesday's storm carried terror and forebod.ngs of danger to t many homes last night, says the Raleigh Press-Visitor, but to one humble cottagn it carried death. A sad a id distressing story comes from St. Matthews' township near Garner. When one of the strongest blasts of wind was expending its fury, a grant oak gave way to the force of the ele ments and fell on the house of Mr. 0 N Trice. Tbe weak timbers of the house gave way before the tree, which crashed in on Mr. Trice, his wife and little Bon. Mrs. Trice who bad just retired was caught by fl- ing timbers ana crushed to death. Mr. Trice and little son, who were sitting near the fire place, were knocked to the floor when the house gave in, but their injuries were only slight and tbey managed to find their way oat from under the wreck age. Reports from other points in this State and throughout tbe South tell of death, injuries and terrible disas ter. Hot. Miller Culled.

Latest U.S. Gov't Report Absolutely pure TO FIGHT GUIHRIE. , Terrible lerlHrat: . I Last Friday eight Mr. Eii Miller Blbllcnl Recorder Taken Vp III Aiuced Nintement About BaptiNt. This week the Biblical Recorder aies op its fight against Maj. Guthrie for a statement reflecting upon the Baptist denomination, which the late Dr. . Pritchard charged him witj making, but which Maj. Guthrie denies. Tbe Recorder says : It is far from our aim to inter fore with any party. The readers cf these columns know that we are in depandent. If any man reflects upon the B iptist peple of theie churches, if aiy'm'an reflects npon the principles for which they con tend, whether he is 'a candidate or not, the Recorder cannot be true to tbe people who support it, cannot be true to the Convention of which it is the organ, cannot be true to its calliBg, and be silent, Tbe time comes when the Recorder must not count tbe cost. Dr. Pritchard, who with Maj. Guthrie attended a banquet at tbe University in, June, 1895, wrote of the occasion in an account to Charity and Children, the organ of the or phacage as follows : "Tbe addresses were generally good, and in excellent spirit aad taste; but there was one which to me personally was offensive and certainly not calculated to do any good, ibat was the speech ot W. A Guthrie on the University and the church. He charged that tbe Baptists who opposed State aid to higher schools of learning were enemies to the University and sought to destroy it, and that they wera traitors to their country and their God." Desiring to be fair, we sent a copy of the latter part of this paragraph to Mr. Guthrie before he was nomi nated. He denied it in a private letter and also in the newspapers, in the latter suggested that we had a low motive in bringing the matter ont. Dr. Pritchard cannot speak now. But he would not bave written, if be bad not known. It ill becomes a man who would lead the people to contradict the statement of a minis ter of Goi after he is dead when he had several months in which to con tradict it when he was living and could speak for himself. The state ment had been in print seyeral months while Dr. Pritchard was alive; it was in print more than a year before Mr. Guthrie denied it. If further evidence than tbe word of a man known and respected and loved by the people of this State for oiore than twtnty-Gve years were needed, we would cite the fact that there was no denial until it became a matter of personal interest; and further, tbe fact that the statement has been confirmed by others ; and further, the fact that a beloyed min ister in this State is now ready to afiirm that in a conversation after tbe account was printed in Charity and Children Dr, Pritchard reiter ated the statement in his presence. The denial, the insinuation as to our motive has been made; and may be made again. By Mo Hlily Wentlicr ll irl.
