Waycroae, da., June 13.—A cyclone.
" hich jumped about In this section of
the state Tor nearly a hundred miles,
commenced at Manor, twelve miles
from Way-cross, at 3 o'clock yesterday
afternoon.
The wind first landed on top of D.
*'. ' nnnlrhaera house at Manor and
tarried away the lightning rpda and
"' oral boards. Then for a distance of
right or ten miles the tornado swept
everything In Its way, clearing every
tree and bush In a path a hundred
lards wide.
Ttie dwelling and out buildings of
Henry Corbitt, four mllea out, were
*"ept Away, and the young eon and
daughter of Mrs. Corbitt were perhaps
fatally Injured. Dr. Dunk James’

terrific wind.
IN THE DARK30 MINUTES
MARY MARBLE AND CHIP
PLA Y TO SCARED CROWD
W'
rHILE the storm won raging'at Its height Tuesday night, rain was
being driven against the Casino In sheets and the wind whistling
and screaming around the corners of the playhouse, suddenly thero
came a crash as of falling timbers and the lights went out.
The two hundred or more of the audience were* hurled Into a chaotic
frame of mind and In the utter darkness a panic seemed Imminent. None
knew what had happened or what vfould come next.
But Mary Marble and Little Chip HAved the day and for thirty minutes
In the pltch-like gloom they entertained the audience tylth their extem
pore fun-making after having quelled the panic.
It was during the last act and the specialty song of “Mlrandy” by Mary
Marble. All during the performance the wind and rain had been beating
with terrific force against the north and east sides of the building. Then
an unusually severe gust of wind struck the building, blowing down the
shutters In the gallery of the house and threatening every moment to lift
the roof from Its fastenings. The lights suddenly went out and fully half
of the audience jumped to their feet and turned to the exits. Little Chip,
however, came to the assistance of Mary Marble and with the chorus
which was hastily assembled, a specialty act was- gone through which was
not on the program. After a moment of hesitation the audience was again
seated and in appreciation of the remarkable coolnesa of the favorites on
the stage, encore after encore wasdemnnded and given and for fully hAlf
an hour the two performers kept up a round of continuous nonsense that
eclipsed any other number on the program.
After waiting a reasonable length of time for the return of the lights.
Mary Marble discovered a candle which she kindly loaned the orchestra,
and amid the most enthusiastic applause ever accorded any artist at the
Casino, the performance was brought to a successful close.
But she had sung "Mlrandy” clean through just twenty-two consecu
tive times.
Trees Uprooted and
J Many Phones .
% Ruined.

MAR BURY SA YS STORM
WAS NOT A CYCLONE
“Tuesday night's terrific wind and
heavy rain, which may be called a
morm, wax not a.,tornado or cyclone,"
nay* Local Forecaster J. B. Marbury.
"The storm was caused by unusual
barometric difference within a small
area, the high being over the central
states and the Atlantic coast and the
low over the Gulf coast whert the
storm was centered.
"Tornadoes almost Invariably come
on a hot murky day, when Intense heat
causes such atmospheric conditions as
to bring, about a disturbance that Is
evinced In electrical disorders and
winds of great velocity'. While we had
& wind Tuesday that reached a veloc
ity of 32 miles an hour, we had no
cyclone, nor did Tifton.
"The center of the storm Tuesday
night was on the gulf coast, where a
very low barometer prevailed. Farther
north a much higher barometer caused
the winds to be drawn south, and the
drawing In, caused by the low on the
gulf, necessitated the meeting of two
strong forces,* which caused the storm
that was felt throughout Georgia Tues
day.
"Had there been a cyclone It would
not have been northeast of the storm
center, as Is Tifton,” said Mr. Marbury,
when asked If there was any connec
tion between the Atlanta and Tifton
storms. "The effect of the storm If
precipitated Into a cyclone would have
been southeast of the center, which Is
In Florida. Tifton *;as on the wrong
side of the center for a cyclone. The
Tifton disturbance was In all proba
bility nothing more than a similar one
to ours yesterday and last night,
there were any. buildings blown down,
they were no doubt defective, and not
capable of strong resistance. ‘
"The weather Tuesday waa too cold
for a cyclone. It was nothing more
than the tension caused by the dlf*
ferenccs In the barometer In a com
paratively small area. There waa no
similarity to the Gainesville storm,
which occurred on a day such as I de
scribed. when the temperature waa high
and the humidity was very heavy."

Tha norm began early In the morn

ty-rod: hours, but It was nut until I ho
aftertfoon that .the wind which caused
so ii 'i- h damage to the surrounding
terrt^ry attained much velocity. The
rain.btgan falling at 7:52 o'clock on
Tucstlity morning, first In n slow drls-
zle, which was Intermittent with heavy
downpours accompanied by a strong
east Grind. Its effect was felt In the
early -port of the day mostly on ths
downtgwn streets where the high
buildings created a draft which In
creased the already high velocity of
the wind, which at times waa thirty-
two miles an hour.
Nearly Four.Inches of Rain.
Late In the afternoon Ihe wind in
creased In strength and about dark
the rain began In fall In continual tor
rents. This continued until daybreak
Wednesday, and in that time 1.47
Inches of rnln fell. This was record
ed nt the weather bureau from the
hoars .if 7 p. m. Tuesday until 7 a. m.
Wednesday. Most of the rain fell be
fora ipldnlght, however.
I-'ront the loginning of the rain

f.,r Iftfr storm 3.63. The temperature
’M,>Miulay morning was 62 degrees,

vni""I. Tire fewest teniperothTe Tues

Though It wad the month of June and
Atlantans expect the weather to be
moderately warm, they were contem
plating .warm fires Tuesday night, anti
many of those who rode down town
Wednesday' morning on Ihe street cars
were glad to sit beside a closed win
dow. The air was unusually fresh
and the atmosphere was perfectly
clear.
Chilly June Weather.
The cool wind which accompanied
Ihe rain Tuesday morning caused
many to don their raincoats, and It
was a wintry scene that presented It
self to pedestrians on the street Tues
day. Business was almost paralyzed
In the retail districts, for ladles did not
rare to risk the displeasure of a sum
mer cold, not to speak of the dtsrom
fort from carrying around several
skirts in that rain. They nlayed at
home rather than court the elements,
which were all out warring. Those
few who had to be out and about
moved In a hurry, for umbrellas were
of little use, so strong was the wind
around the corners of the high build
ings In the business district. It u ns n
slay-at-home day, even In the business
center of Atlanta.
With the Increase of the velocity of
the storm about dark, those who had
expected to attend the bicycle races
and other places of amusement culled
everything In for the night, and, as u
result Jack Prince for once post|K>ned
the little entertainment lie was going
lo pull off at Piedmont park, at 50
cents per person entertained. The
street cars were deserted after dark,
and the streets down town, with wa
ters of the rain pouring down them,
enjoyed a’ hath within ihe privacy of
their own homes.
Many Tslsphsnas Out.
The telephone companies were bad
ly crippled locally, as the high wind
caused much crossing of wires. In
both systems, there were about 600 tel
ephones out of service Wednesday
morning, and it will be two days be
fore all of them will be In working or
der. The telegraph companies experi
enced some trouble with thstr wires,
on which linemen were put to work
early Wednesday morning. A few
fuses were'biirned nut In the local of
fices. The railroads were not seriously
Inconvenienced by the rain, and no re
ports of any washouts havs bee it re
ceived. The fire alarm system In the
city waa badly damaged and Chief
Joyner gave orders last night that the
police should not depend on the sys
tem In reporting fires, but should use
Ihe telephone.
Trees Uprooted.
In every part of ths city trees were
damaged and many young fruit trees
of the city end In the country nearby
were uprooted t by the high wind. In
