The Wind at Corvalhs.
We see by the Corvallis Times I hat
the windstorm that swept that vioin
lt about midnight last Saturday was
the most violent of several seasons.
The big tweuty-fnur font Cyclone
wheel of the windmill that surmounts
the water works' tower, with half Its
blades torn off, is a monument of the
storm's severity. Those who live In
that vicinity say that the wind whistl
ing through the wheel at the time re
sembled the horse whistle of a big
ocean steamer, and was almost as loud.
Many signs were blown down and nu
merous houses were so shaken that In
mates aiose and dressed themselves,
prepared for the worst. Many electric
light, telephone and telegraph poles
were blown down, On Jefferson and
Sixth streets the electric light and tel
egrnph wires came In contact and the
heavy current of the light wire burned J
out the telegraph instruments in the

phone was working yesterday but all
