Mount 8L Michel's Tidal Wave One ef the Sights of the Worlfl.

Seven miles end a half He between the ocean and the rock. Presently a strange murmur pervades the air. It seem to come from nowhere and yet to be everywhere. - - . And then far on the horizon lifts a line of white. Every moment It draws nearer, and the sound In the air swells louder, and then with astonishing speed up the line of crested sea. and In a moment, where it reaches the sands, there Is but a space of swirling water. And on the waves ride in the fishing boats that have gone out to sea on the tide at dawn. - Many a tragedy has been caused by the swift Inrush of this true tidnl wave, for,, save along narrow paths, 'the bot tom of this vast, strange bay is but quicksand, and after the tide has once turned and the sound of its coming Is beard no man can hope to escape lt reach unless be be close indeed fct the mount or the shores of the mainland. -Travel Magazine.

More than 850 persona were drowned, this town of 3,200 inhabitant was wiped out and 1,000- person, many of them women and children, caught in their homes, were maimed when the great dam of the Bayless Pulp ind Pa Comnnv which held hark m w P"J U! mW"ib" mJre ""-"""J ui water, on Saturday at 2:30 p. m t bunted. The neighboring town of" Coftello al- go was wipea our., in population was from 400 to 500. It was asserted that two-thirds of the people perished.. ' Forty bodies have been recovered to night, many of them disfigured .beyond recognition. . The survivors are in a frenzv; trie scene is one of black deso lation and horror. There ii no organization. The town is dazed by the catastrophe. Although help is hurrying from without, there is no one here to take the lead. Burgess Michael Murn has been drowned; Slate Senator Bla Jwin and his entire family were wept away in the flood. Of the 300 residences in the village scarcely a dozen remain. Fires illumine the night everywhere. Great volumes of gas escaping from broke a and twist ed pipes started the flames. The damage to property has not yet been even approximately estimated, but will run surely into hundreds of thousands of dollars. The dam of concrete, was built two years ago. it was located between two hills above Austin in such a position that down-ruuhing waters could r.ot but sweep over the village. The dam was 530 feet long, standing in a little valley formed bv Freeman Run and rising to a height of 49 feet. It was 32 feet wide at the base, and its builders always affirmed that it was constructed on the most approved plans of modern engineering. The basin behind it, which extended half a mile, had never been entirely rilled with water until this week. Today it was noticed that water was running over the top of the dam. Many persons went to see the unusual sight, and it was while they were watching that a Niagara of water was released and de- cended in a wall fifty feet, high upon Austin. Paint yourhouse With B. P.
