Tho Storm Last Nialit.
Tho ilenso volume of clouds that wero
Keen to tho south of this city last even
ing ai about six o'clock and which wero
suggestions of a deluge, wore but the
"roar guard" of a severe storm in Mar
ion, 'Washington mid Yamhill counties,
During the night a little rain fell in this
city, what was left of tho main body
probably. There was considerable light
ning, ami occasional rumbling of thun
der. Tho storm was very hard nt Salem.
Hail fell to tho depth of three
inches, and some of the stones
measured three inches in circiim
forcueo. Stock was stampeded, much
glass destroyed, fences wero blown down,
trees uprooted. Tho Luil belt was
about ono mila wide and camu from tho
direction of Mount Hood. Tho dainago
in Salem is estimated at 7,000, but this
umouut may bu largely increased when
all is reported. Tho country northeast
of that city shows signs of rough wind.
At and about Ilillsboro and in hoiiio
portions of Yamhill county, much dam
ago was dono to fenced and trow, soma
of tho latter being stripped of every leaf.
The full extent of tho ravages of tho
storm mo not known yet.
Tho Storm Ovor on Sandy.
Mr. D. K. Dunbar, who lives half a
milo from tho Columbia river and ten
miles east of Portland, gives us somo
interesting particulars of a terrible storm
of hail that swept ovor that part of the
eouutiy Wednesday afternoon, it was
about live o'clock in the afternoon tluita
roaring sound of storm was heard over
in Washington Territory: This was 10
minutes in ndvaueo of the tempest,
which struck thoColumbia river, followed
up stieam a short distance, nud then
south in tho vicinity of Fuirviow church,
on Columbia Slough. Tho storm cov
ered a strip of country about two miles
wide, nml was accompanied by heavy
thunders nml sharp lightning. It'lasted
about half an hour, and is represented
by Mr, Dunbar as u scene of indescrib
able fury and terror. Tho ground wns
left covered to tho dopth of two inches
with hail, some of which measured two
ami a half inches in circumference. It
had a dis istious cfTect on crops and fruit,
boating down ileitis of growing grain
and leaving them badly cut up, while
ucirly all the blackberries, currants,
cileries and apples wero beaten from tho
trees and vinos. Tho clover fields up
pear to bo cut to pioces and beaten
down beyond redemption, while gardens,
early (iota-toes, strawberries, etc., ae ac
tually demolished. In somo instances
wimlo'VH wero broken. Passing south
fron: there tho storm seemed to join
forces with black clouds coining from
somo other direction, and passed on liko
a messenger of min.
The velocity of this storm and its
fierceness may be judged from tho fact
that one hour after crossing tho Colum
bia river it crept over Salem, at least
50 miles distant. Tho direction of tho
storm for 50 miles was southwest by
south. It was proceeding with un
abated fury when it leached Salem, and
must have left a swath of devastation
for all that distance, of a milo and a
half to two miles wide, und no doubt
proceeded much further. It will be in
teresting to trace the course and effect
of this hail storm, which swept liko a
hurricane through the country. It is to
be hoped that reports will bo furnished
from Washington Territory and Oregon
whero it was felt In almost 30 years
residenca in this valley, old settlers say
they do not remember anything of tho
kind.
For three or four days within a wek tome
of the garris on boys hare made the town ut
ura-lly lively, even (or them.

ut Jaukossy, thu ball striking the middle
rib, glancing around and lodging in his
lack. Jankossy fell at the shot, was
disarmed by thu ollicers nud taken to thu
city prison, whence ho wid bit removed
to thu county jail.
i Dr. Jcssup tiiiulii an i-xiimiiintion of
thu wound, which is not considered dan
gerous, and at lost accounts the ball hud
not been discovered. Hut li Uo blood
was shed; it is not supposed that thero

his spree.
Marshal Minto, who was unarmed,
had a blood-curdling escape from death;
another inch to tho right would havo

Officer Faulkner, of course, behaved
with tho utmost propriety in firing at
tho desperate madman, and so putting a
stop to his murderous proceedings.
