Appeals for additional relief for the
Ohio yalley flood sufferers were read in
both houses of Congress on last Friday.
A bill appropriating $200,000 for that
purpose passed the House early in the
day and subsquently passed the Senate
and was sent to the President.
As being of interest to the numerous
ex-soldiers among our readers, it may
be stated almost with certainty that
the bill now before the Senate and
House, which provides that no proof
shall be neccessary to establish the fact
of sonnd physical condition at the time
of his muster into the service in the ar
my or navy, of any applicant for an in
valid pension, for any wound or disa
bility contracted in the army or navy in
the late war, will pass and become a
law.
WASHINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb, 18 1884.
Most of the opposition to Mr. Mor
rison's tariff bill thus far is evidently
of the kind that would find any poss
ible bill for the reduction of the tariff
"grotesque," "chaptrap," "inharmo
nious,,' "a bungle," "foolometeo,'Vtc.,
as the divorced Mr. Porter calls it in
an intemperate letter to the Philadel
phia Press. But it must not be for
gotten that back of the few highly
protected manufacturers whom Mr. j
Porter represents is the great mass of I
the American people, demanding a re- '
duction of taxation, and that in the
Treasury a great surplus is banking !
itself up at the rate of almost a hun- j
dred millions a year. Congress should \
calmly proceed with the reduction of
taxes according to its best wisdom,
without much regard to the violent
outcry of a small class of interested
rich men, which is like that of A few
crickets in a field.
Somebody who signs himself "T.
F," is sending bundles of printed cir
culars to Senators,in which objections
are made to the forfeiture of the Tex
as Pacific land grant. It gives the
usual arguments which were made by
the attorneys of the Texas Pacific be
fore the House Committee on Public
Lands, and adds the new and aston
ishing argument that the land is
worthless. The circular recites that
"if the United States were given all
these lands for nothing to actual set
tlers, it is doubtful whether anybody
could be found with temerity enough
to accept them." Notwithstanding
the worthlessness of these lahds.this
advocate of the railroad insists that the
road must have them, and reiterates
0. P. Huntington's threat that if Con
gross declares the grant forfeited the
constitutionality of the act must l>e
decided by the Supreme Court. The
gentlemen who are supposed to 1h
prominent in the movement to take
these "worthless" lands from the Tex
as Pacific are accused in this circular
of simply seeking political capital.
The writer says: "These men see in
the noisy discussion of such bills,
and the apparent warfare which they
wage with the railroads, something
to catch the ears of the groundlings—
of those who are opposed to anything
and everything which tends to devel
op anil build up the great West."
Too bad, isn't it? PHONO.

A Blizzard in the West.
MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., Feb, 18.— A
blizzard is raging in the vicinity of St.
Vincent. The thermometer is falling
rapidl} and fears are entertained of a
snow blockade.
The two-year old boy of a Johns
town brewer named Lawrence Kost,
wandered into his father's brewery the
other day while the family were at din
ner and no one present, and fell into a
tub containing about seven and a half
barrels of boiling hot liquid. He was
not discovered by his father for fully fif
teen minutes after the occurrence and
it was with the greatest defficulty that
the body was removed without the
flesh dropping from the bones so thor
oughly cooked was it. Deputy Collect,
or Campbell was notified of the occur
rence and the contents of the tub were
drained off by him.
The Ohio River Floods
still Raging.
FEB loth.—The towns and cities on
the Ohio river have been visited by the
greatest flood of the century. So great
and appalling is the disaster that pen
fails to adequately describe the misery
and destitution prevailing. Over cue
hundred thousand people are homeless
and destitute and must be provided
with food and clothing for weeks to
come.
A special froiu,Gallipolis, Ohio, says:
The relief steamers Nora Belle and Jim
Montgomery returned from a trip down
the river last night. They report that
the village of Athalia, Ohio, is almost
entirely swept away. At Millersport,
Ohio, twenty or thirty houses are gone.
At Proctorville, Ohio, the water is in
the second stories. At (Yredo.W. Ya.
SBOOO,OO worth of lumber was lost.
Suppliesave greatly needed every whi'io.
The relief eommittee is using foursinall
steamers to distribute supplies, which
are coming in liberally.
CINCINNATI, Feb. 15th.—The town
Maysville had not been heard from un
til to-day, when a committee composed
of Captain Kirker, JudgeCollins and a
Presbyterian minister, of that place, on
their way to Cincinnati in a skiff, hailed
the Kate Waters and were taken on
board. They report the town is almost
ruined. Brick buildings are crumbling
to pieces and frame houses are washing
away. The militia company as patroll
ing the streets in boats distributing
food but the supply is about exhausted.
Alt along the river the story conies of
most generous aid rendered by farmers
and others far into the interior who
have sent food in wagons, without
which much suffering would have re
sulted. Aberdeen, opposite Maysville,
was badly wrecked by the late storm.
The town is entirely destitute of coal
oil and is practically in darkness.
Some help has been sent there from
Maysville. Ripley has fully fifteen
thousand persons dependent and has
been receiving help from the interior as
far back as Hillsboro, thirty live miles.
The village of Rural with two hundred
and fifty inhabitants, has one hundred
destitute. Eight families aie sheltered
in a church and thirty-live persons are
in a small school house.
A Railroad Track Ruined.
WHEELING, Feb. 15.— The greatest
financial loss is that of the Ohio River
railroad. For a hundred miles the track
and road bed has almost entirely disap
peared and the bridges have all been
swept away. At Moundsville about
twenty families have been rendered
homeless and entirely destitute, but the
wealthy i>eople of the town have refused
to accept aid and are doing everything
possible to alleviate tlie suffering. At
Bern wood, 250 persons, three fourths of
the entire population, are in absolute
want.
DELUGE MOVING WEST.
SIIAWNEETOWN, Ind., Feb. 17.—A
heavy rain fell all night and during the
early hours of the morning, and the in
dications are that there will be still
more rain. The latest news from the
Wabash is that the river is still rising
and that the Tennessee is pouting a
great flood into the Ohio, causing much
suffering among the refugees on the
hills. Their provisions are giving out,
aud food has heen scarce from thestart,
and many additional cases ate reported.
But bad as the situation now is it will
become worse.
The situation in Uniontown is grow
ing more serious. The entire town is
several feet under water and the river is
still rising steadily. There was a rise
during the night of five inches. Be
tween Shawneetown and Uniontown
the country on both sides of the river as
far as the eye can reach is one vast
sheet of water, trees alone making the
dividing line between the river and the
shores. Several houses have been wash
ed away.
The situation at Paducah is worse
than has been generally supposed.
Last night one-third of the place was
under water, and a rise of two feet
more would cover the entire town. The
last train on the Ohio and Chesapeake
road arrived last night. The water
covered the track to the depth of two
feet putting out the fires of the engine.
At 8 o'clock this evening the g.is works
were flooded, and the people are now
dependent on lamps.
New Liberty, twelve miles above
here, is entirely abandoned and nothing
but the roofs of the houses can be seen.
Four-fifths of Smithland, at the mouth
of the Cumberland river, is under water
and seyeral other towns are submerged.
That portion of Caseyville fronting on
the river is under water to a depth of
ten or twelve feet.
PINE BLUFF, Ark., Feb. 17.— The
steamer R. L. Cobb reports that nearly
all the plantations below are more or
less submerged. Only four landings
could be made from the mouth of the
riyer. The situation of the planters is
critical. At Fulton last night the Red
river was still rising and the flood cov
ered the banks on both sides for many
miles. The homes of hundreds of per
sons are flooded. The occupants are
helpless and cannot be rescued. Liye
stock are drowning in large numbers.
Many houses are being washed into the
river and unless relief is soon obtained
the loss will be heavy. The Arkansas
river at Fort Smith had fallen six feet
at midnigut last night and was leceding
slowly.
The River Receding at Cincinnati.
CINCINNATI, Feb. 17.— The river .s
rededing at the rate of about one and
a-half inches an hour and 11 o'clock to
night stood at sixty feet. It rained
hard this afternoon.
Miscellaneous.
A general reduction in faro has been
made on the Heading Hail road.
There is a man in Shaniokin who has
lived for seven years on bread and wa
ter at an expense of 40 cents a week.
The Lehigh Valley Railroad compa
ny is building a locomotive which it is
stated will bo the heaviest ever built.
It will have ten driving wheels with
pony-trucks befon and behind.
On Sunday Feb. 10 Mrs. Fenster
uiacher, living on Fast Market street,
Sunbury, discovered a bunch of full
blown blossoms on an apple tree in her
lot. The tree is also full of buds near
ly ready to burst. This is a remarkable
circumstance considering the recent
severe weather and the open, exposed
position of the tree.
A Reading Lad's Singular Death.
READING, February B'l. —A strange
and fatal accident occured here oa'tlie
streets to night. An alarm of lire was
struck at 8. :U) and a large crowd ran in
response. Harry (Jatiz, aged seventeen
ran against a tiee in the thick fog,
s'ipped and was instantly killed. He
struck the tree, with his temple.
The State Agricultural Society, hav
ing bought ground for a permanent
place of exhibition in Ph ihulelpbia, will
erect capacious buildings during the
coming summer and inaugurate its new
departure next fall with a State fair at
which !?sft,ofto in premiums will be of
fered. It strikes one at fust as odd to
hold an agricultural fair in the largest
city of the State and in the extreme
southeastern corner; but, after all, by
the increase of railroad facilities, Phil
adelphia is brought near to the great
agricultmal region sof the State. Lan
cistcr, ("hester, Delaware, Lebanon,
berks, Iychigh,Montgomery and North
ampton counties make most of the
agricultural display and the point that
is most central for them will no doubt
be found most advantageous for such
an exhibition, besides in great centers
of population it is most practicable to
secure a large phtronage of exhibitors
and spectators.
Dead in a Dentist's Chair.
St RANTON, Feb. 7.—Mis. James
Stevenson, of the Providence section
of the city, died to-day in a dentist's
chair at the office of W. 11. Ileist, after
she had three doses of chloroform and
ether administered during the pulling
of fifteen teeth. The anaesthetic was
given by her family physician. Dr. A.
Strang. After the first dose Dentist
Heist puiled two teeth; then another
dose was given and nine teeth were ex
tracted: then a third dose was given,
after which live teeth were taken out.
The startled dentist then realized that
he was pulling the teeth of a dead wo
man. Mrs. Stevenson died shortly at
ter"receiving the third dose. She leaves
seven children, the youngest of whom
is only four months old. Coroner
Dean is holding the inquest-, which will
continued to-morrow.
Two 1301.D SWINDLERS.— The other
morning at 4 o'clock, as the Philadel
phia and Erie passenger train was a
bout starting west from Ilarrisburg, a
bold and successful swindling dodge
was played upon an old gentleman, a
citizen of Erie, who was on his way
home. Two men came bolting into the
train and one of them called out, "Is
th*re any one on this train going
through to Erie?*' The old gentleman
referred to reply that he was bound for
Erie,whereupon the first speaker stated
that he had a car of horses on the train
but that the freight agent would not al
low* them to go through until the re
mainder of the freight, which was short
S4O, was paid. lie referred to the man
who had come with him, as the freight
agent, and the latter affirmed the state
ment of the alleged horsedealer. lie
represented that he was going through
with the horses,andjthat lie had a writ
ten security which lie would give any
one furnishing the money asked for,the
man secured the amount named from
the old gentleman of Erie, and placed
in the hands of the latter the document
which he had previously shown. After
getting the money the horse dealer and
the freight agent pa ssed forward to the
front part of the train to look after the
horses. When it oceanic light enough
to examine it thoroughly the benevo
lent Erie man discovered that tbe pa
per given him was a sight draft on the
First national bank of Texas for S2O,
000. Long before this time the
swindlers had skipped ofi" the train and
disappeared. It need not be stated that
there were no horses on the train and
that both the men who worked the
horse dodge were swindlers.
