Tornado Strikes Shreveport Carnival

On the last day of the Mardi Gras carnival at Shreveport, Louisiana, February 20, a tornado came up suddenly, and quite a portion of the outskirts of the town was demolished, eight persons were killed, and forty or more were injured. The tornado appeared without warning, in the midst of the merrymaking, and it was with difficulty that many who were in the part of the town where the tornado was the lightest were able to reach shelter.
