HRAVK AND FAITHFUL GUARDIAN
OK OUR HOMES AND PROPERTY
RESCUED FROM IMMI
NENT PERIL.
A VERr popular and well-known member of
our police terce, who has perlermed duty
twelve years at the Union R. R. Depot, en Ex
change Place, in Providence, R. I., gives his
unsolicited testimony. Hear him :
" I have been dreadfully troubled with dis
ease of the KlJneys and Llvr during the past
six iuentlfs : at times 1 was he severely alllicted
that 1 was unable te stand en my feet, as my
feet ami lower parts of my legs were very
badly swollen : my urinary organs were in a
dreadiul condition, my bleed was lu a wretched
state, and It had become se Impoverished and
circulated se poorly that my hands and leet
would - cold and numb and te white as toap teap
pear lileless. I could net rest nights, but was
no llstresl all ever that I could net lie stllll in
bed, but would keep turning and rolling lrem
one side te the ether all night, se that I would
feel mere tiled and exhausted in the morning
than when 1 want te bed. My condition be
came se serious that I was obliged te step
work, and for thirty day 1 was unable te be en
duty. I consulted the be'stdocters.and tried the
numerous medicines and se-culled cures. But
rapidly grew worse, and was In a sad condition
every way when a long-time valued lrlend of
mine, prominent in this city in a large express
company, urged me te try Hunt's Remedy, as
he had known of wonderful cures effected by
it. Upen his representation 1 obtained two
bottles et the Remedy and commenced taking
it as directed, and greatly te my surprise in
less tlmn twenty-tour hours 1 commenced te
leel relieved. 1 was In an awful condition
when I began te take the Itemed', and had no
faith in it ; thciefere, when 1 found almost
Immediate relk-t. even in one day's use et it,
my heait was made glad and I assure you 1
continued te take the Remedy and te improve
constantly from day te eay. 1 took it with
me en my trip te .Maine ter I was bound te
have it with me all the time, and the result is
tiiatl imnieved speedily all the time I was
away ; and ever since my arrival home, which
was several weeks age, 1 tiave been en duty
everyday 1 teel first-rate, and the swelling
et hand, leet and legs have disappeared, and
the terrible backache, which used te bother
me mere than all the rust, troubles me no
mere, and 1 sleepsplendldly nights, and surely
have very excellent and forcible reasons for
speaking in praise of Hunt's Kemedy, for it
has made a new man of me. 1 don't, knew
what 1 should have done without Hunt's Rem
edy ; it Ih the best medicine that I ever took,
and l very gladly recommend it te all who
areallllctcd with Kidney or Liver diseases, or
diseases et the Urinary Organs.

The i iver has fallen five iuebes te dny
and is, at 7 o'clock, neatly at a stand still.
The tributuiit-s above u:e lepetted as ris

cause a third rise. Mere rain is feared,
and should it come there will yet be G7
feet of water at thin point. The appre appre

which is en high ground, dees net break
Hundreds of tens of piovisieus could be
brought iute the city daily by canal. There
ha3 beeu talk te-day of using it for trans
porting passeugeis and mails, and if the
river rites again that will be done. The
superior court has adjourned, ewltiir te
the impefsibility of hccuring the attend
ance of witnestes and jurors. There is to
night. 42,000,000 gallons of water remain
ing in the reservoirs. The daily con
sumption has been reduced from 10,000,
000 te 10,000,000. Water will probably
be shut oil" a part of each day from this
time en. The river must fall 00 feet be
fore the pumps can. be made te work or
gas can agaiu be furnished.
Six Persons Killed.
At one o'clock this morning people in
the vicinity of Ne. 00 Wilstach street, en
the border of the inundated district in the
western patt of the city, were startled by
a loud explosion, which shattered a three
story brick building, occupied by feut
families, numbering seventeen persons.
The building was found in ruins from an
explosion el fire-damp or sewer gas in the
cellar, and all the occupants were buried
in the debris. A scene of terror followed.
The people thiuking that the explosion
was cau.-ed by the picsure of water in the
sewer, and that ether explosions would
fellow, lied, thinly clad, te places of
safety. The fire alarm Tras sounded and
the iire department responded promptly,
adding te the general consternation. Find
ing no lire the men began the weik of res
cuing the tiulortunate victims.
The explosion resulted in the killiug of
six persons and the weuuding of fourteen
mere, and it suggested that mere calami
ties may be awaiting a great number of
people. The house was situated in the
west end of the city, with three or four
hundred ether houses, which the iloed has
entirely surrounded but has net reached.
Iu a twinkling, and without the leat
warning, the house was laid level with the
street. The reef had beeu lifted com
pletely off and lay iu the stteet, extending
from curb te curb.
Mr. Drewn, the owner of the heuse,
was the innocent cause of the disaster.
He was hurt, but net seriously. Te a
reporter te-day he said : " My two boys
bad net gene te bed, but wero ou the out eut eut
side of the house ou the sidewalk, aud
just as I wtis lighting a camlle I heard a
terrible uoise. I then felt the bed moving
aud the next thing I knew I was in a pile
of bricks. I felt, for my wife and found
that she was lying by my side. I then
heard my boys crying, ' Father, when;
are you i" I culled te them, when they
came up aud pulled us out from under
the reef, which had fallen en our bed.
The hijih bed pests saved our lives." The
heuse must have beeu permeated with
some strange sort of gas. The sewers
have been stepped up by the iloed aud the
gas thence escapiug may have had some
thing te de with the explosion. The
illuminating gas having been shut off for
five days could have had nethiug te de
with it. liy some it is believed that tire
damp was formed. The buildings en the
opposite side of the street were shakeu te
their iouudattens aud glass was broken
two squares distant. The whele neigh
borbeod was aroused iu a moment aud all
repaired te the scene. The "blackest of
darkness prevailed, but with the broken
wiudews aud furniture a boulhe as senu
built, which lighted up the ruin Mr.
Brown and his wife had by this time es
caped from the bed, which was under the
reef iu the middle of the street.
Fifteen Persons Burled.
It was known that fifteen persons were
still buried in the ruins' aud that nine of
them should have bi-cu dug out alive
seems miraculous. The neighbors, includ
ing women aud children, stayed about the
ruins uutil daylight. They were afraid te
go home lest their own houses should fall,
People in all parts of the city te day men
tion having noticed a strange smell iu
their houses. What stniuge gas of un
heal d-of destructive power may be form
ing in consequence of the iloed but few
have the courage te conjecture.
The work of providing for the homeless
aud destitute is becoming organized. It
is iu the hands of business aud profess
ional men, and there is little else being
doue iu the city. Te-uight supper was
set for the hungry suffeiers iu mauy places.
At the Pearl street market house the
market counters were arranged like tables
along the centre from one eud te the
ether. The tables were dimly lighted
with caudles stuck in the necks of bottles.
Hanged along the sides of the counters
were one hundred aud thirty nie pans and
cup3 aud spoons ; each pau was supplied
with meat and bread and each cup with
soup or coffce. The hungry crowd in
waiting en the outside of the market
heuse, black and white together, were per
mitted te file in and range thcihselves
standiug areuud the counters.
JfeediDg the Thousands.
Without ceremony they fell te with such
vigor that everything edible seen disap
pearcd. When they passed out the pans
and cups were replenished and another
long file took their places. Thus three
tables full, four hundred and twenty-six
persons in all, were furnished with sup
pers. Ne women were te be seen. They
preferred te take the meal te a less public
manner and carried away for themselves
and children fully as much as was eaten by
the men. There are a dozen of these soup
houses and as much mere feed is distrib
uted by the relief beats. " What is your
name ?" is asked by the sergeant, who
was sitting at a desk in the Seventh dis
trict school, te the first of the homeless
group before him.
" It is Jehn Evans, sir ; he is sick with
consumption and is barely able te stand,"
said a woman at his side. " I am his wife
and these are our two children. We live
at 450 West Fifth street."
" Pass en te the next room."
"Who are you V"
" Mrs. Maleney, sir ; widow for seven
years. These children are mine ; they are
five. I was driven out of our second
story window by the flood. This lady is
Mrs. Dunnehewer, a widow, like myself.
She has two children, but they get fright
ened and ran off, no one knqws where."
In this manner the homeless continued
te come for hours.
A Farrlytlc's .Sad Cane.
One sad case was that of Henry Greni
me, of Ne. 58D West Frent street. He
was 40 years old and paralyzed since he
was six years old. He was found lying
alone in a second story room, where the
water was two feet deep. Over one hun
dred were ledged at the school heuse.
There were about 30 boys, 20 girls, 30
women and 10 men. Cots and biankets
were supplied te each. Men, wemeu aud
boys weie ledged in separate rooms and
all were quiet aud orderly. About 10 p.
m. coffee and crackers were passed around.
The supply was hardly equal te the de
maud, but when asked if they weie satis
fied, all answered in chorus that they
were.
The most distressing reports come from
Laureuceburg. Fifteen women have given
birth te children in the factories, where
the people who have been diewued out
are huddled. In Newport yesterday a
young girl died in one of the school houses
aud at the same hour a baby was born iu
the opposite end of the same room. A
woman was found ou eue of the back
streets in confinement. She n as all alone,
in a house surreuuded by water up te the
second story.
Among the Other Towns.
Belew Lawrencaville and te Louisville
the situation is the same. Beginning with
the upper suburb of Cincinnati, ou the
Ohie side, are Columbia, Pendleton, Ful
ton, then Cincinnati, Scdainsyille, River
side, Fern Bank, Lawroucehurg, Ind.;
Aurera, Rising Sun, Palyet, Vevey aud
Madisen. On the Kentucky side are the
towns of D.iyteu, Belleview, Newport
and Covington ; opposite Citicinuati, Lud
low, Bremley, Petersburg, Hamilton,
Warsaw, Ghent, Carrelton, Milten, West West
pert and Louisville. At Palyet and Vevey
the river is live or six miles wide, and at
all these points it simply extends fiem the
Ohie te the Kentucky hills, covering all
the rich bottom lands. Its average width
is from eue tJ two miles, a sea of yellow,
water. At all these points mere or less
damage is done. Vevey, Warsaw and
Ghent have fared better than the ethers.
Ne detailed particulars are available, but
a cool guess would plaee the number of
families either homeless r imprisoned at
net less than 50,000. There are 15,0U0 in
Nowpeit alone, and 5 000 or mere in L'iw
rcucebiirg. At Louisville, New Albauy
and Jeirersonville it is in many respects
even worse. While no call for eutside aid
has been made, Cincinnati is being amply
repaid for her liberal responses te the calls
el charity clsewhere duriug the past year.
Meney, contributions of various sorts, aud
eilers of aid are coming iu from all quar
ters, the detail of which, though pleasant,
would be wearisome from length. Every
thing is being done that can be dene for
their assistance, and most everybody who
who is net in person affected by the water
is doing mere or less at h.
LAW1CENCEUUUU DBOIVNIII).
Hundred or Heuse I'tlty l'"ect Under Waler
Births autl Deaths side by Side.
There never was, iu all the history of
the floods in the Ohie valley, a city town
or hamlce se completely at the mercy of
angry element as is Lawrenceburg. Fer
three days the citizens were almost with
out a morsel te eat. In the lower portion
of the city everything is destroyed save
the dwellings, and they, of course, must
be badly damaged, lluudreds of the
houses are from ten te fifty feet uuder
wtitcr. In the lower districts was wheie
the poorer classes lived. Driven fre-u
their homes, they lied te the public build
ings for safety. All they possessed i3
destroyed, ami what is net totally dip
tttreved is rendered worthless by the con
tinued water. The Reporter btcamed
alongside the court house, woolen mills,
churches, furuituie factories and public
school buildings. All of theso buildings
were crowded aud jammed with people
rescued from watery gr.ives. Iu the
larger atfd mere secure residences the
families have been driven te the second
aud third stories. Tuesu of the mere
wealthy classes ex-ciid te their less fortu
nate neighbor the hand of assistance aud
give them places beneath their reefs.
On the principal streets the water ranges
from seven te tweuty-five feet deep. Al
though precaution had, in a measure, beeu
taken, aud property removed from the
lower stories, but little in fact, has been
saved. But few of the mciehauts were
able te move their goods. Thousands
and thousands of dollars worth of house
hold property has been rendered worth
less There were many families who pos
sessed nothing mere thau their household
property ; by losing that they have lest
all they owned. A great raauy of the
smaller houses iu the lowlands have beeu
swept away, and house mid contents for
ever lest, te the owners. The damage te
the factories cannot be estimated. In the
city there are a great many furniture fac
tories, all of which had en hand large
stocks el lumber. In many cases this has
all been carried away. The mauhiuery in
some, if net al", the factories aud mills
has beeu badly damaged, and no doubt
wholly destroyed. The county records
have all beeu saved, they having been car
ried te the top sterits of the court heuse.
The interior of the jublic buildings, in
which am located a great majority of the
inhabitants, presents many peculiar,
though sad, but interesting scenes. In
some instances wealth and beauty have
for their nearest neighbors the family of
the cart driver. All are upon a common
level and no distinction is made. In ene
par , et the court house death was claim
ing its victims, while iu auether new lives
were being ushered into the world. It
was said upon geed authority that no less
thau fifteen babies have been born in the
different public buildings since the inun
dation begau. The reports of the condi
tion of the people have net been exagger
ated. In fact, the half has net been told.
The outire city, with a population
of 5,000 are iu. want and at the
mercy of the public. Distress extends
from one end of the city te the
ether. The country surrounding is doing
its duty te the unfortunate people. There
has been no communication with the out
side world for days except by beat and no
packet is running regularly. The tele
graph wires are down and the telegraph
and telephone offices are flooded with sev
eral feet of water. In short, there is net
a dry square feet of ground in all the city.
Details of the situation have been eagerly
sought for, but were only obtained by
reporters sent from here in beats.
The condition of things at Aurera,
though net se bad as at Lawrenceburg. is
indeed bad enough. The greater portion
of the latter city is completely inundated,
though the suffering is net se great. A
goodly portion of the city sits en the side
of the hill, and in that locality reside the
wealthiest people, consequently these who
arc out of water can extend a helping hand
te theso who have fallen victims te the
flood. The damage, though great, will
by no means amount te as much as at
Lawrenceburg.
GREAT LOSSES IN KKNTCCKV.
LeuIsvUIe Inundated and Other Towns
Overflowed.
In Louisville the flood continues unaba
ted. The canal is forty-three feet nine
inches, and is rising at the rate of half an
inch per hour. It is believed, however,
that the waters will come te a stand. Ne
additional less of life has been reported,
but probably 104 additional dwellings and
business houses are overflowed. All the
manufactories near the river are closed,
and thousands of workmen are out of em
ployment. Transfer and express wagons
traverse every street, stepping at the
1 houses of citizens who fill them with coq-
tributiens for the sufferers. The citizens
have responded nobly se far. The water
works, en the extreme eastern limit be
yond the point and the cut off, have suc
cumbed, and the machinery has stepped.
There are two large basins containing
millions of gallons of water, aud it is net
thought there is much danger of ascarcity.
The gas works still held out, but a few
mere inches will step the supply. After
the breaking of the cut-off dam, lights
began springing up all ever the flooded
space, showing that the people were
climbing out of the reefs of the houses in
their efforts te save themselves.
At Maysville the river fell six inches
during the night and is still falling. The
floors of A. Finch & Ce. and Pearce Bres.,
grain houses, are a total less. They con
tained 30.000 bushels of grain. At Fal
mouth, Ky., the Licking river is still
rising, and will, continue te de se all day.
At Frankfort, Ky., the river is falling,
but another rise is expected Fifteen hun
dred people are being ledged and fed.
The less there is estimated at $200,000.
At Marietta, Ohie, there was heavy rain.
Beth the Muskiugum and Ohie rivers are
rising. They show a rise of three feet
duriug the night. Rain is reported at
Zanesville, O., and a flood equal te that of
last week is expected again.
MB HATES' HOjwK INUNDATED.
Frecinant, O., Undermined by VfatvT A
Heroic Incident of tbe Floed.
Freemeut, a few days age a thriving,
beautiful suburban city, presents a most
pitiable sight. Four hundred families
have beeu driven from their homes by the
floods and are new seeking shelter en
higher laud. Houses have been carried
away, cars swept from the track of the
Lake Shere railroad, and people and pro pre
visions rescued iu beats. In some places
the deluge of water was se sudden and se
irresistible that the inmates of dwellings
were driven from story te story, and finally
made their escape through holes cut in
the reefs.
Mr. Hayes said that the conduct of
the fireman et the train that made
the crossing of the Sandusky river during
the flood was one of the most striking
examples of cool courage and presence of
mind that ever came within his experi
ence." Wednesday morning the citizens
at work en the Lake Shere embankment
were startled by the whistle of an ap
proaching freight train. Signal was given
that the bridge wasunsafe ; but the down
grade and proximity of the bridge ren
dered auy effort te step the train futile.
The eugiueer.and all the trainmen jumped
from the deemed train except the tire
man, who was busily throwing coal into
the fire-box. He comprehended the situa
tion at a glance. It was tee late te jump,
the train was almost ou the swaying
bridge, and, with a quick jerk, he threw
the throttle wide open. The engine
bounded forward, and, in an instant, was
making its perilous crossing of the rock
ing bridge.
A cheer went up from the auxieus spec
tators as the eugiue broke couplings, and
with six cars swept safely across the
bridge It bad scarcely crossed the east
span, which was swaying and cracking,
when it gave way, precipitatiug tbe re
mainder of the train, thirty-six cars, iute
the raging flood below. As the wreck
was swept down the river a man was seen
ou one of the cars holding out his arms
toward the shore. It is presumed that
the lest man was a tramp, who had been
stealing a ride.

y.-i
Silk novelties innumerable
and indescribable. Everything
that ladies or dressmakers have
occasion for in matching, deco
rating, combining. What we
are remarkable for, mere than
for anything else in silks, is va
riety ; or, at least, we are re
puted se. Yeu heap it said by
everybedy: "K you want te
match anything, or find a rare
silk, even an unexpectable one,
go te Wanamaker's."
The ether peculiarity that
everybody expects te find here
is less pleasant te speak of;
lower prices. We put it second,
because there are people who
don't credit us with lower
prices. Still, we imagine that
if one should assert die con
trary, almost everybody in Phil
adelphia would believe it.
Oftener wc speak of ether
aspects of our trade ; aspects
less obvious or less recognized.
It is well occasionally te give
old news.

Perhaps this it is. A great many
seal coats and fur-lined circu
lars are ready-made. Mere
sizes are ready-made here than
anybody expects; especially the
unexpected sizes. Ready-made
work we can make in July.
Why shouldn't we make all the
shapes and sizes ready-made ?
