DEVASTATING STORM.
WORST IN WEST AUSTRALIA’S HISTORY. (Press Association.—Copyright.) (Received 10.30 a.m.) Perth, this day. Some country districts experienced the worst hail and rain storm in history at Woigan Hills. The area affected was a mile wide and thirty-five miles long, and devastated 6000 acres of crops, which were completely destroyed. The drivers of teams were battered by the hailstones, which lay four feet deep at Mount Rupert. Pigs, rabbits and poultry wgre killed and the roads were like rivers.
