This dis- ggtor, occurring at a time of strained ,.¢1ntions between the United States and Germany, is credited with hav- ing prevented war. on March 21, 1890, seventy-six ,ons were killed and $2,500,000 worth of property was destroyed by a tor- nado in the City of Louisville, Ky., and thirty-seven persons were killed ir, neighboring districts, making the total loss of life in this storm 113. The first of two destnlctive toma- does that have visited St. Louis, Mo., occurred May 27, 1890. . In the city and elsewhere along the storm track 306 lives were lost and the damage to property was near $13,000,000. The "Portland Storm” of Nov. 26- 27, 1898. furnishes the classic example of the danger of' ignoring storm sig- nals. The steamer Portland, which left Boston in defiance of Weather Bureau warnings, foundered off Cape Cod, with a loss of 175 lives. This was but-one episode in a storm that wrecked 142 vessels on the New Eng- land coast, with a total of 455 lives. 'an exceptionally heavy fall of snow accompanied the storm. On Aug. 8, 1899, one of the most disastrous hurricanes in the history of Porto Rico passed over the length of the island. More than 3,000 lives were lost, mainly by drowning, and many more people died subsequently of starvation in consequence of the general destruction of food plants. The vast property losses included the ruin of a maturing coffee crop worth more than $1,000,000. ' ' The "Galveston Hurricane" of Sept. 8, 1900, was a tropical cyclonc"that did not attain hurricane force until it began its westward course across the Gulf of Mexico. The storm struck the Texas coast at Galveston, where invading waters flooded the city and island to a depth of six to fifteen_ feet. More than 6,000 people out of A total population oi 40,000 were kil- led by drowning or otherwise and the property losses amounted to $20,000,000. Another severe hurri- cane visited Galveston on Aug. 16 and i7, 1915, but the losses of life and Pf0D9l`i-y were relatively small, owing 1° the Protection afforded by the sea wall. The Omaha (Neb.) tornado of Easter Sunday, March 23, 1913, was one of several occurring on that date in the Middle West, which killed 0b00t 240 people and destroyed $5,- 000.000 worth of property. ' The loss of life in Omaha was 109. The "Olympic Blowdown" of Jan. 29. 1921. rivaled the most severe tro- P1°°1 Cyclones in violence, though it occurred on the extreme north-west- ern coast of the United States and “'05 not of tropical origin. Over an Usa of fifteen miles wide by sixty miles long on the Olympic Penin- sula of Western Washington, winds estimated at 150 miles an hour felled large trees by the thousands. The US'1'¢Klte amount of timber laid low WB-s estimated at 8,000,000,000 board feet.

The most murderous tornado of re. centtimes crossed southern Missouri, Illinois and Indiana on March 18, 1925, killing 742 people and destroy. 1118 property to a value of $16,500,000, Six other tornadoes occurred the same day in adjacent States. The fatalities due to this group of seven storms were 792 and property losses totaled nearly $18,000,000. The mo- .i0r storm is sometimes called the “Murphysboro Tornado," as the City °f M\1TPhYSb0ro, Ill., suffered most W damage estimated at $10,000,000, The ‘fShenandoah_Squall" of Sept. 3. 1925. _destroyed the United States naval alrship Shenandoah while cruising over southeastem Ohio.

Hurricanes From West Indies One of several destructive tropicnl membered as the "Miami Hurricane," as the centre oi’ greatest devastation was the City of Miami, on the south- east coast of Florida. The storm, iflvelins from the west Indies, reached this poillt in the early morn- ing of September 18 and crossed the peninsula during the day. The loss of life, as reported by the Red Cross, was 327, and more than 6,000 per- sons were injured, Property losses probably were between $75,000,000 and $150,000,000. exceeding those in any previous hurricane that had vis- itcd the United States, The second distostrous tornado ex- perienced at St. Louis, Mo., occurred Sept. 29, 1927. killing about ninety 11601112. injuring more than 1,300 and CHU-Sing damage estimated at $50,000,- 000. The hurricane or sept. 12-20, 1928, destroyed life and property on a vast scale in Porto Rico, several other West Indian islands and Florida. Its history has not yet been written. Some months must elapse before complete and trustworthy figures of the losses are available. STANDARD MINING EXCHANGE Quotations furnished through cour- tesy of LOUIS M. ATWELL da CO..

McDonald, Kilmuir, on the night of Feb. 'ith inst. The ob- ject of the gathering being a desire on the part of the congregation to show Mr. McDonald in a tangible and unmistakable manner, their hearty appreciation of his services for many years. Although the night was cold and a storm threatening, every part of the congregation was well represented. the auto, sleigh, and waggon were all in evidence, and that in inidwin- ter. The intention was to give Mr. Mc- Donald a_surpri.se, and no one had any doubts with regard to the com- plete m.-.niicr in which the plans were carriecl out. At a certain stage of the proceed- ings, Mr. M. D. Martin, acting chair- man, called on Mr. S. M. Martin to read an address. which is hereby ap- pended. Mr. J. A. McPherson pres- ented Mr. McDonald with a well fill- ed envelope. _ Mr. McDonald though taken by surprise, by this, as well as by all the happenings of the evening, made a suitable reply, expressing the great joy it gave him to have so many of his co-parishioners present at his home tonight. Any uripreparedness on his part to receive them formally, was all due to the air-tight envelope in which all the plans of the visitors were enclosed. He expressed his ut- ter unworthiness of the many kind things said about him in the address, and that any work done by him in this community or congregation, was always a service which gave him great enjoyment, and that any labour or timespent in the performance of those duties. he considered was not ~lost time at all. He allowed that many others were equally deserving of rec- ognition so far as services to the congregation was collcerned. He then went oil to give a brief outline of llappcnillgs in the Vallcyfield congre- gation cluring his term of otlice. l-le most. heartily thanked all who were ilistrumelltal il. b1'l11§iH3 00005 Such a happy event as what we were all enjoying tonight, and hoped and prayed thot we all may be spared fer many years yet to work together for the good of God's cause, both home and abroad. Mr. Donald M. Nicholson, Allan McDonald, M. A. McPhee J. A. Mc- Pherson and S. M. Martin, on being called on by the chairman, spoke warmly of the work so eiliciently per- formed by Mr. McDonald for many years, and that without any remun- eration. The Ladies being prepared with a luncheon nothing was \1l\d0DB W make the occasion a most enioyable one. Some time was then spent in singing, after which the gathering came to a close by singing God U0 With You Till We Meet Agaiil. Mr. John N. MacDonald. Kilmuir, P. E. I.. Times are changing.
