Several Injured and Property De
■troyed.
The worst storm in years visited
Rockmart Monday afternoon, in
juring several people, destroying
a great deal of property and des
troying crops. It came up about
1:30 o’clock with a terrible roar
and lasted only a few minutes.
The path of the cyclone was a
quarter of a mile wide and houses
and fences were swept away and
trees were cut down as wheat be
fore a scythe. Giant oaks and
pines that had withstood the storm
of years were uprooted, twisted
and torn. Limbs were blown high
in the air, a great many lodgin
the telephone and telegraph
wires.
Those injured in the storm are:
Charlie Stevens, hurt internally,
will probably die.
Georgia Ross, serverely bruised
and cut.
John Ross, cut on head. The
above are all negroes.
A portion of the plant of the
Rockmart Stove and foundry com
pany was destroyed, loss about
#1,000.
A negro church and school
house completely demolished, loss
about #1,500. Several negro
dwellings were also destoyed.
A peculiar feature of the storm
was that of an empty box car on
the Seaboard Air Line railway 1
being blown a half mile down the
track. It was down grade and
the car never left the track.
The cyclone was followed by
terrific hail storm which did con
siderable damage to crops.

BLACK "WTJ11D, the grut vegetable
remedy for Rheumatism, Catarrh, and
Kidney and Bladder complaints, has met
with almost instantaneous success be
cause it has made some noteworthy
cures of very severe oases.
Mr. John Post, of the Atlanta Fire
writes:
“ For months I suffered with my kid
neys. I made every effort to g%t relief,
but failed until I accidentally came in
possession of a bottle of Blaok Weed.
The relief obtained from its use was so
peat before half the Bret bottle had
been used, that I put aside all othar
medicines and am now sound and well,
having bean oared completely by Blaok
Weed. At the same time I had an ag
gravated case of Catarrh of the head
and throat. Blaok Weed has completely
oared this, and my head is now as dear
as a bell.”
There is never anything lost in a
legitimate expenditure on public
enterprises, while on the other
hand a people who fail to meet the
demands of progress will always
be losers. Chattooga county, one
of the banner counties of the state,
cannot afford not to take advan
tage of this opportunity. The
largest tax payers in the county
are favorable to it and the small
tax pa} r er cannot afford to be
against it.—Summerville News.
