It struck the sonth end of the new spinning annex which is 90 by 100 feet. It took all the roof for 32 feet, stripped the metal for about fifteen feet more and badly upset the bal ance. The entire end of the build ing was removed from the sec ond floor up. . The entire roof was - ursettled- and apparently would have gone but for the heavy line of motors and belts fastened -below. Practically all the machinery on both floors was soaked in wrter. . Just how muce damage was .done cannot be estimated U any certainty but somewhere iii the neighborhood of $3,000. No insurance. We hear of minor damages all along tne trail of the storm but dofiiiite excepL that a tree blew acrot9 atenant house of Mr, Boyce Weir in the western part of town doing slight damage. The nouse was occuoied by Van cash. A Barn at Mr. Joe Hord's blew down on a mule, and lots ot heavy timber wa blown down.
