V Wilms, 50 LIVES SWEPT A.WAY A Great Wall of Water Overwhelms West Guthrie, Okla. Gcthrik, Okla., April 28. A cloudburst caused a mighty ware of water six feet high and a mile wide to sweep down the valley of the Cottonwood river and strike West Guthrie at 6 o'clock Uhis morning with a great roar. iThe water crushed houses and drove the people, from them. j t ' Fully, fifty persons were drowned, but the exact number is not known yet-, as the-water has not subsided sufficiently to restore order out of the .chaos that was caused. j " The Cottonwood river is scarce ly more than forty feet wide ordi narily, and winds in many curves between the banks in West Guthrie. A terrific rain fell here all yester day afternoon and a greater part Vol last night. The river was then already full from a rain of several days ago. No great alarm was felt, as the river was rising grad ually and the people' did not expect the water to overflow the steep banks. But then came the cloud burst. . . j .WATER BOSK AS IF BT MAGld In the morning the river . began to rise as if by'magic. Higher and higher it went, jumping fourj feet in thirty minutes. West Guthrie is thickly populat ed, mostly by colored people. Many began carrying their house hold goods to-places of safety. Few had made more than one trip when they were forced to flee for their lives. j The river burst from its hanks and a raging sea of water half a mile wide swept across the valley, carrying houses, barns and fences before it. To add to the horror of the situation the main supply pipe of the waterworks system jburst where it crossed the Cottonwood in the southern part of the city, and all the water in the reservoirs, burst into the river. IV THEIR K8CAPK CUTOFF, j In the southwestern part of the city a long arm of land is formed by the widening of the river. In this land lived hundreds of colored people. The bridge leading across the river to the other part of the city was swept away. !-.". The people were absorbed in watching the rising waters .in the morning when tne noou irom tne reservoirs came down in ai - solid wall 'and swept across the arm of laud near the mainland, cutting them off from escape. They' fled from their homes to the higherpart of the newly formed island, j There was much loss of life in that part of the city House after house was lifted from its foundation and swept aran a ' : ? a. away, i ne aeDris jammea against the strong bridge near the jlleims ice plant. This bridge was torn from its moorings and carried away. Horses and cows soon dotted the II Jf.a! ' river, swimming in an airtciions. Men and women could be 8n in houses beckoning -for help." In many instances the water had reached the eaves of these houses. An old colored woman was seen 4V . a fn a . a on a noating nouse. xne nouse was overturned and she sank from sight. , r CURRENT. TOO 8WIFT FOR RESCUERS. Many , persons clambered into trees and either fell from exhaus tion or were rescued. Thete were no boats for rescuing and the men set about constructing rafts.; When the rafts were put in the river the terrible swiftness of the current made it impossible to manage them. The Guthrie Club organized a rescuing party and began the con struction of boats. Three daring raftsmen attempted to . reicue an old man from a tree. The raft, as it rushed down' the river,' was watched with breathless j excite ment. It struck the overhanging limbs of the tree and the raftsmen were knocked from their feet. They managed to remain on their craft and went whirling toward the Cimarron river. Nothing has since been heard.of them. v j a " ' CHEERS AS LIVES WERX SAVED. Two men got a small stern-wheel steamer and went to the rescue of a number of men and women who were lodged in trees. Many per sons were thus rescued amid the cheers of the spectators. -The ca ble which held the boat suddenly parted and the boat was drawn in to the current' and carried away. It was finally landed further down mo stream. . I - A girl who had been sitting in a tree for hoars gave up and fell Into the water. She was drowned, i Gustavus Piatt and George Wil lis swam the main f current, cut a flat boat from its moorings and saved seven persons, making a land ing several miles below the city. Many overturned' houses can be seen far out in the flood, but it will be some time before the fate of their occupants can be learned. OVMWBCLMKD Vf BILK IH BID. i The water flooded everything In the valleys of the Cottonwood and the Cimarron. It i caught many persons asleep, and they were either instantly, drowned j or thrown into the merciless waves in 'their night clothes to fight, for their lives as best they could. Men, women and children clung to houses and tree tops, while manywere carried down the rapid stream on floating bouses or some smaller portion of their be longings. Whole drowned. families were PKOPKBTT LOgS AT LKA8T $100,000. The property loss is estimated at 9100,000. The main residence and business portions of Guthrie were unharmed. Four thousand dollars has been raised in Guthrie for the relief of the sufferers. A MKKOKABLK RAINSTORM. The heaviest rain in years fell throughout the Territory yesterday and last night, a continuous down pour keeping up for several hours. A number of persons were drowned at various small towns. . Southwest of Waterloo, in this county, a waterspout occurred and half a dozen farms were inundated. Near Clifton and Lionel scores of farms were swept of everthing and many cattle and horses were drown ed. At' Cushing, jPayne county, dozens of people were driven from their homes by the high water. At El Reno lightning struck the Presbyterian church spire and the colored schoolhouse, knocking chil dren right and left, but killing none. The town was swept by a tornado. M I v The total rainfall since Saturday has amounted to 111.98 inches. It s still raining hard. ; A WHITE CITY. The Greatest Show on Earth, With- ont a Doubt. Barnum.

Description of the Permanent Best ing Place of Gen. Grant's Re- I i mains. A hundred feet above mean high water of the Hudson river the Grant tomb and monument stands, a solid pile of white granite 150 feet high. The first 72 feet of this height is a cube of the Grecian' Doric order. The entrance, on. the southern side, is enclosed; by a portico made up of a row of recessed columns. . Above and behind the portico rises an al most blank wall, which will one day be relieved by four equestrian statues and which is finished in a parapet bearing the sculptured fig ares of Peace and War. About the parapet there starts abruptly a cupola 70 feet indiame ter, surrounded, as a relief, with Ionic columns. Around the crown of the cupblai a line of fasces, sur 1 mounted by j eagles, connects! the columned dram with the pyramids 'op. j ; ' . i ; DOORS WKIQHING "SEVERAL TOSS. - . i t Passing iip the great steps which extend three-quarters of the way across the front of the structure, one comes first to the doors of the tomb, filling a space 16 feet 4 laches high and 9 feet wide Of bone-dried ash, covered thickly with a composition of copper and tin, these doors weigh three and a half tons. In each of them are three panels, ornamented with 148 bronze rosettes, the twenty-four on the larger central panel being each twice the size of a man's hand and all riveted to the doors with heavy bolts. INTERIOR OF TBE TOMB. Beyond the doors, after a clear space of 38 feet, is a 25-foot open ing, directly over the crypt. The interior of the monument is cross shaped, and the four corner arches are 60 feet i above tne noor. un these arches rests an open gallery with an inner diameter of 40 feet, which is approached by two circular corner stairways, eacn witn ty steps. Above the gallery extends the panelled; dome, , 15 feet above the floor, and below through the opening can be seen the lower floor, and still lower the crypt with the sarcophagusj MA88IVK SARCOPHAGUS.- . - The sarcophagus, cut from the solid rock is highly polished, re flecting the near-by Surfaces as it rests in tne crypt. This great block is 10 1 feet 4 inches long, .5 eet 6 inches wide and 4 feet 8 inches high and weighs five tons. It is plain except for the simple en graved inscription at the head of the capstone, "Ulysses fc. urant." Some day the body of Mrs. Grant will repose; beside that of her hus band, in a 'duplicate of this sarco phagus. The architect of the tomb was Mr. John H. Duncan. f- BOW THE MONUMENT FUND WAS RAISKD. By popular subscription the fund necessary ;f or the erection of the memorial. was raised. It is esti mated thai 90,000 persons contrib uted sums I ranging from one cent to $5,000. j In all, $559,000 was se cured. The unexpended balances were kept by trust companies and drew 3 per cent, interest, so the sum increased until it now amounts to about $600j000. With the ex ception of.about $50,000 the entire- fund was raised in New York city. OLD TOMB TORN DOWN. N The little brick tomb in River side Park I in which the body of General Grant remained during the twelve year when the permanent tomb was j building was torn down Monday night. The work was done by Contractor Brady and a gang of men, and every brick and bit of stone which had gone to make up the structure were carefully han dled and piled in a heap. This heap wa fenced about and a guard was put over it, so as to protect the bficks from relic-hunters. It has not yet been decided what dis position to make of the relics. i . 'i MB. H ACKETTS CLOSE CALL .ii Shot at by Eufl Henderson, of Wllkes- ' boro. WiLKESBORo, April 28. J. R. Henderson.of Republican notoriety, created a sensation here this morn ing. ' Henderson was sitting on the hotel notch when R. H. Hackett, attorney here, passed and Hender son drew his pistol ana fired. HacK- ett was in a few feeto f the pistol, but slightly turned himself and the ball missed him, cutting a hole in his coat! An old feud existed be tween the parties. Henderson has been in politics a number of years. He wast Senator from Wilkes in 1895 and nominated on the Repub- ican ticket for State Auditor in 1896, but was removed before the campaign began. Hackett is a talented Jawer, and is the nominee for mayor ' ' Representatives of leading rail roads in the South met in Wash ington last week and formed the Southeastern Passenger Associa tion.

I It is not ! a generally understood fact, but a fact nevertheless, that some or the wealthiest and most uxurious appearing people li?e on the plainest food. There are chil dren in the families of millionaires who would no more be permitted to partake of such meals as are given; to the children of many la boring man than they would be sl owed to use articles - that were I . . S mm 1 known to De poisonous. Aiapy a mechanic's little ones live on meat, warm' bread, all the butter ihey want.and that of ah iuferior quality. coiTee as much as they choose, and heap bakers' cake, which is in it self enough to ruin' the digestion of an ostrich. .' f Tbe children of one family make their breakfast of oatmeal or some other cereal and milk with bread at least 24 hours old, a little, very ittlei butter, sometimes none at all. The 'breakfast is varied' by (corn bread, well done, a little zwieback and sometimes stale bread dipped egg and cracker crumos anu browned with butter. . ;A fresh egg is often the only article outsiqe of fa,iiiuAiia fneA that ttiAV n ra n 1 owed. For dinner, which isf the middle of the day, they have borne well cooked meat, one or two Vege. tables,a cup of milk if they like it, or weak cocoa, with plenty of bread and! butter and a simple dessert. Supper, which is a very light meal, frenuentlv consists iJ of trraham crackers or brown bread and jmilk or the pudding, eaten with a little molasses or maple sirup. A few days ago, in a call at the house of a workingman, there were ve children seated at a table, on which was a large dish or peat, swimming with gravy, in which potatoes had been cooked. Iheee tatoes were saturated witn lat and almost impossible of digestion by any person of ordinary constitu tion. There were hot rolls, soggy ooking and smoking from the oven ; parsnips tried in laro ana reeaing with the 'crease. A pile of cheap cakes, sufficient to fill a good sized bur quart measure, stood on one corner ot the table; also two pies, ith crust containing so much lard that they looked absolutely gjeasy. There was coffee, darkf andl rank ookine land .worse smelling, :and this the children were indulging in quite as mucn as tney pteaBeu. They atri like little wolves, wth an unnatural and ferocious appetite. Two of them had pasty, unhealthy ooking complexions; one was evi dently suffering from some skin disease; the elder ot tne group nau an ugly looking eruption pn his face and ears, and the; entire lot were livinz examples'bf the results of a mistaken systejm of feeding. It was no surprise tortne visitor io heara few days latejr, that j wo of them were very ill, one hopelessly so, with cholera morbus; f , ;- That the death rate among sucn people does not increase with fright ful rapidity is the one thing that the thoughtful persons and philan thropists never cease to wonaer ai. The parents of these children would undoubtedly have said that they gave the little jbnes the best their could afford, but this was just ctlv the cause of all the troubles. Thev cave them too much and too expensive food, a proper would have cost a third of th4 money and-would have saved health and doctors -bills, to say nothing of their lives.

Frenuent inauirv is made as. to the causes leading to the presen war between Greece and Turkey! A' few brief statements of facts may serve to throw some light on the subject : The Island of Cretej numbering some j 200,060 people was, until about 200 vears ago, an independent power, whjen it was conquereil by the Turks and an-j nrxed to the Ottoman Empire. Its inhabitants are' and for centuries have been Greeks in I in eage, Ian guag, i religion j and sympathy They have wriLhed under the Turk ish domination and have once revolted, but the more than revolt has always heretofore been quickly sup Dressed and the Turkish chains re-l rived. In the latter part of las year, however, j a rebel ion more widespread and determined than! any before, was inaugurated Greek sympathy with the Cretans was invoked and aroused, and the demands of the Greek beople thai their government take a' hand in behalf of their neighbors and kin dred was irresistible. Greeks arm ed and rushed to the 'aid of Crete, with the undisguised countenance of their government; and ther followed this open support of Crete by theGrecian people a declara tion of war by Turkey u oon Greece. ' A briefly as it can be stated this is how the trouble arose and has progressed. Turkey undertook to bring her rebellious s abjects, the Cretans, into subjection, and the Greeks, their kindred and co-relig-ionistf, interfered to hkp the Cre tans throw oif the "yoke ; The fact that the sympathy of the allied powers England, France, Germany, Italy, Austria and Rus siais with Turkey surprises the public and needs a word of expla nation. It is the business of the nnwers to maintain the concert of Europe, j Moreover, each of thein regards Turkey with a jealous eyis. A vear rbo or more the Observer copied and dwelt upon an exceed imrlvinterestine communication from a St. rler.burg correspon dent of a London paper relative o the European attitude toward lur key. It f was, in substance, that each of the powers was looking to the downfall of the Su tan's dynas ty and each; expecting, when the crash came, to seize a part of hs territory. None of them, however, was willing'to precipitate the icrasb, preferring that it should result from natural causes. Now their sympathies are with Turkey be cauae, in the event of the success of the Grecian army, Greece they realize, will claim as indemnity for the expenses of the war whatever part of the territory of the empire she chooses , and the powers wijl thus have to stand and see their prey slip from them. A f - Meantime alllChristendom andja large part of heathendom, watches the j war with profoundj interest and the heart of Christendom is, of coureerwith the Greeks. Charlotte Observer !
