The floods in the south west during the past week htve beea fearful in the destruction of life and property. On Wednesday of last week the Tombigbee river which was already swollen, began to rise rapid ly and by 'J hursday morning all the low lands were submerged, the river having risen 14 feet during the night It continued to rise all that day aud on Friday morning Columbus, Miss , was literally an island, with five miles of wnter in every direction Hundreds of houses have been wash ed away. Six hundred homeless ne groes have been rescued and are be ing sheltered and fed by the citizens of Columbus. Congressman Allen has been telegraphed to by the may or in conjunction with other officials, requesting him to apply for federal aid. Houses, corn cribs, cattle, horses, furniture and all sorts of movable property were swept away by the rag Ing waters. The lowest estimate puts ttie number drowned at and near Columbus at fifty persons The wa ters have about receded, which ad mits of a more thorough and syste matic investigation, and the proba bilities are that numbers of fatalities reported will- be much larger. The destruction of life and property in all that region was very great. Five miles of the track of the Georgia Pa citic railway was washed away. Th Mobile and Ohio road was badlv washed out. WANT TO SELL OUT. The electric light plant at Oxford is not paying and the stockholder are desirous of selling out to the town dpt. Neal of Danvile, Va , appeared before a meeting of the city commis sioners on Monday, which was held for the purpose of hearing proposi tions relative to thematter andseemed to talk with his mouth open. He sai l the Oxford company had not made any money because it was not pro perly managed, &c, and then offered the entire plant at forty pt-r cent ol its cost. Tbejrratter wis taken un der advisement. Hestated that Dan ville and North Danville ownd their plants and find it cheaper and more satisfactory in every way than to rent lights. Reids ville, N. C , recently purchased the plant in that town, and has reduced expenses on its op erations twenty five per cent. THB Winston Sentinel says : Win ston's tobacco factories are beginning to start np and the general business activity that always follows,is already visible. The outlook is encouraging for a successful year in the tobacco trade, and Within a few weeks several thousands of laborers will be employ ed in the industry. This means that many thousand dollars will be expeu ded every week and go into the d if ferent channels of trade. We think we can tell the first snake story of the season this year. Yes tor day Mr J.T. Lincoln started to build a new bridge across the drain in front of Mr. Randolph Parker's residence, and when he tore the old one up he found six youug water moccasins ranging in length from a foot to a foot and a half. They were all did patched. We ho.ie that ends the venomous family. -New Berne Jour nal. N. C. AT THE WORLD'S FAIR The Board of agriculture an t the Board of World's Fair Commissioners have taken charge of the proposed State exhibit to be made at Chicago aud are pushing all feasible arrange ments with skill and energy. But thev are looking for aid from the peo pie, and from all city, county and State officials in the State, and must have it, or largely fail. They are calling for such aid, not only in money, but in articles, curiosities. relics, specimens, har-diwork &o. North Carolina should not be over shadowed by any other State, and doubtless will not. Let everybody lend a helping hand. AMERICAN BENEVOLKNCE STILL FLOWS. The Indiana and the Missouri, the two relief ships sent to Russia, hav ing reached their destination, and their cargoes having been forwarded over land to the famine stricken sec tions of Russia, two other vessels, the "Conemaugh" aud another.will prob ably sail in a few days. One will take out 75 tons of rice for one item. The Rpd Cross Society is sending them. FRUIT KILLED. Winston 8entinel Thf heavy freezes and frosts for the past few nights have played havoc with a great deal of fruit and vegetables. A citizen who returned last night from Yadkin county, eajs that it is generally conceded there that the fruit which has not b en killed out right has been damaged to such an extent as will cauee il to fall off the trees before ripening. The peach crop in this section will be almost a complete failure. The apple trees and other fruit have not bloomed yet. LIGHTNING SPARED THE PIOUS PAIR. Junaluska Claret On draught. $1 '( per gallon.

Durins: a heavy r.tin litrhtniijg struck the parsonage of the Metho dist Episcopal church, a nice four room cottage, completely demolish ing the bailding with the exception cf the east room, in which were sit ting the pastor, the Rev Jerome Haralson, aud his wife. That they were not instantly killed tvervbody pronounces a miracle, for everything in their room all around them was broken in small pieces. A more com plete wreck was never t -en There id not a whole nail or pir.ee of timber in the building except in the little room they occupied. Np only the building was wrecked but tue fence around it was torn down. The shock broke a considerable amount f crock ery for those living ia the neighbor hood of the parsour.ge. Hai-kell Cor. ilalveston News. A JUKOR DIEOF I XrlAlTSTION. Washington, April ta James W. Hooper, one of the colored jurors who served id the Sen neider murder trial, died today from mental .aid physical exhaustion He was a a robust man and accustomed to outdoor life. The long confinement and mental strain told on him severely and when he was discharged he had lost over thirty pounds of flesh. Vhe trial lasted thirty days and ended last Saturday in a verdict of murder in the first d gree. Young Schneider, af'er maintaining throughout, the entire trial an air of confidence and bravado, has collapsed utterly since his conviction and seems likely to die or lose his mind.

Two very sure methods which she employs for whitening the skin are found, not in cosmetics, but by using tulle as soft and white as a snow wreath under the very opn network of black luce. Sleeves and gimp of the flimsiest patterns when treated in this way will reflect, credit upon neck and arms, even if they are i not as round and fair as one could wish. So well has this pretty device worked that a great many complex ions are beautified by simply basting tulle beneath the black lace piece of dotted net which it tomve as a veil.
