Visited this immediate section in several,

of 1 and 3 o'clock, accompanied by aa al
most continuous peal of thunder and vivid
flashes of lightning. So heavy sad coa
tlauous was the rain that the streets in
some places presented almost the appear"
ance of a river. On Market' street, between
Second and Water, the streets and fide-
walks were flooded, and in many instances1,
especially on the south side of thestweW
the volume of wate$ was, so immense' that
it was forced into the stores, while goodsi
boxes, empty barrels, huckster's , stands,
etc, were taken upon the bosom of
thP" rushing waters and borne rapidly,
in the direction of the river; the owners or
thehj employes being compelled to give
Chase and arrest them in their flight. In
the alley Upon which Messrs. Hart, Bailey
& Co.'s foundry is located the water was at
one time, in some places, almost waist deep,
and as a consequence the foundry and Mr.
Myers' store were flooded to a considerable
depth.
Daring the worst of the storm the water
hurst through under the roof of the West
ern Union Telegraph building, on- Front
street, and deluged the floor of the rooms
in which the Telephone Exchange is loca
ted, causing an entire suspension of busi
ness! for the time being.
Many of the stores and dwellings in dif
ferent sections of the city suffered in this
way to a more or less extent, and many
new leaks were discovered that were never
known to have an existence before. We
heard one real estate agent remark that be
didn't want to see any of his tenants for
the aext week or two.
Oa Market, between Tenth And Eleventh
streets, several dwellings were flooded with
water and the inmates had to seek for dryer
quarters in the upper rooms.
In several sections of the city, after the
storm had subsided, we noticed Urge ponds
of water standing, and we suppose the
street brigade will have their hands full for
several days to oome.
It was .rumored thai lightning struck a
dwelling io the eastern section of the eity,
but we could hear nothing definite, though
there ia no doubt that it struck somewhere
close by.
From the Signal Office the report comes
that 4 inches and 20-100 of rain fell inside
of the two hours.
Take it altogether, we think it will be
admitted that those in favor of the "wet
ticket" had it all their own way for one day
at least; and also, that the comet switched
its light millions of miles of tail to some
purpose when it caused such a commotion
in the elementary regions.

VOn me commanding hill, in the midst 1;
of the settlement, sits a handsome .little
church, white and neat as the lily that lies
on the bosom otthe limpid lake. Oaeode
side ;of the church stands the stately two
storied residence of the priest, while on the
other serenely sits the modest little school
bouse. From this central eminence you
look out upon s contented and prosperous
a little community of agriculturalists as the
State anywhere affords. It consists of
forty families, all German. Their dwellings
are humble, but neat and home-like, and
thrift and happiness smile on all their sur
rounding. About 8,000 acres were origin
ally purchased. They were subdivided and
sold in lots varying from 40 to 160 acres
the former showing the smallest farm, the
latter the largest the average being be
tween 50 and 60 acres. The colonists raise
wheat, corn, potatoes, grapes and some cot-
ion, rneir neias ana gardens speak tor
themselves, and they tell too plainly and
pleasantly not to be observed that here skill
and industry go hand in hand. The crops
could not be in better condition, all things
considered. They seem as clean almost as
parlor carpets the soil being thoroughly
prepared and well supplied with the food
nt lor tne fields. JTor these Germans use
fertilizers; and they make a good living and
have a surplus besides. They are progres

of mention here, for it betokens what man
ner Of people they are: all of them are out

all their own and such a thing as encum

any other purpose never enters their minds.
They are not educated to any such hazard.
They get a mail twice a week and judging

Fire.
About 7 o'clock yesterday evening smoke
was discovered issuing from a large ware
house in rear of the business houses on
North Water, between Princess and Ches-
nut streets, the properly of Mr. Alfred
Martin, in which 1500 barrels of lime were
stored belonging to Messrs. E. G. Barker
& Co. An alarm was sounded and the
Fire; Department promptly assembled at
the scene. It was ascertained that the fire
was caused by the excessive rams of the
afternoon which had penetrated through
the roof of the building and ignited the
lime; ! The fire engines were quickly at
work, but owing7 to the nature of the fire
there was little-to be -expected from their
efforts, unless they could, with an un-1
limited supply of water which was readi-

contained in the, building, and thus put

A DOWN TOWN MERCHANT, havlner naased
several sleepless nights, disturbed by the agonies
and cries of a suffering child, and becoming con
vinced that Mrs. WSaslow's Soothing Syrup was
Just the article needed, procured a supply for the
child. On reaching home and wiiiinMng his wife
witn i wnat he had done, she refused to have it ad
ministered to the child, as she was strongly in favor
of Homcsopathy. That night the child passed in
sunenng,ana tne parents without sleep. Return
ing home the day following, the father found the
baby still worse ; and while contemplating another
sleepless night, the mother stepped from the room
to attend to some domestic duties, and left the fa
ther with the chUd. During her absence he admin
istered a portion of the Soothing' Syrup to the ba
by, and said nothing. That night aJlands slept
welL and the little fellow awoke in the morning
bright and happy. The mother was delighted with
the sudden and wonderful change, and although at
first offended at the deception practiced upon her,
has continuedto use the. Syrup, and suffering cry
ing babies and sleepless nights have disappeared.
A single trial of the Syrup never yet failed to re
lieve the baby and overcome the preludices of the
mother. Sold by all Druggists, is cents a bottle.
