Something in the nature of a cyclone struck the central portion of New Plymouth shortly before 6 o’clock, one recent afternoon. With loud, startling roar, the wind came off the sea, and took a narrow course through the town. It was accompanied by torrential rain, which for a few minutes made watercourses of the streets. Several dwellings and business premises suffered damage. The veiandah roofing was torn completely away from a house and one of the supporting posts was hurled on to the roof of a neighbouring house, penetrating the iron. The roof of a garage was also damaged. At the foot of King street the cyclone struck King’s Buildings, breaking the glass of several windows, and bringing down a brick and iron chimney, which fell on a skylight. Sweeping thence into Devon street, the cyclone broke one of the large plate-glass windows in the H.B. building and a window’ in the Imperial Hotel. The force of the W’ind seems to have been dissipated as it progressed beyond this point. “DRINKO” CURES ALCOHOLISM. Excessive drinking is a disease.
