JOH2.srowj, June 14. One of the most
ttrikmg sights imaginable, and one which
would lurnish an excellent subject for a
panoramic view, or for the brush of a painter
who delights to handle colors of deep, con
tracting hues, as an interpretation of chaos,
death and devastation, would undoubtedly
be a bird's eye view of Johnstown at night.
It was nearly midnight yesterday when I
sat under the bright glare of a brilliant arc
light in the rear of the Pennsylvania Rail
road freight station, at a point where I had
the opportunity of observing the scene in
all its details of solemn grandeur, as well as
those suggestive of horror and ghastliness.
The moon was rapidly rising over the
Allegheny Mountains, and, as it forced
itself through a crescent-shaped, silvery
rimmed cloud, the dark veil that had
hitherto prevented the mountains from ap
pearing as a befitting background to the
picture within the valley was lifted, and
the panoramic outline stood forth very dis
tinct. Along the mountain ridge hung a mist of
Vaporous gauze, through which the higher
trees were noticeable, and, as the wind
swayed their crowns to and fro, their ap
pearance was very sugsestive of ghostlike
giants standing upon the hilltops mourn
fully wagging their heads in contemplation
of the result of the lately enacted tragedy
at their feet! Then, lowering his gaze, and
looking to the left, the beholder's eyes
rested upon the valley of the Conemaugh.
There, in the distance,
WHEEE VISION IS BAFFLED
by the blackest, impenetrable darkness, the
gorge through which the death-dealing
forces of the watery element sped forth on
that awful night of terror is hidden from
view.
I turn away from the vi ew of this spot,
which stirs these recollections in their most
shocking vividness, and can just discern
that vast field of death and devastation
from Conemaugh borough to Johnstown
proper. And now, where darkness has
thrown the cloak of indistinctness as to the
details of this scene before the vision, one
who has seen it may readily imagine him
self to be looking upon a broad plain of
sand and clay with a few big holders of
stone and broken trees strewn about to make
the waste of sand more apparent.
Then the eye falls nearer, and there
beyond, at the base of the hill, we can notice
a small cluster of white little houses the
remnant of what was one; known as the
borough of Wood vale.
Again coming nearer, the vision rests in
the district of arc lights here and Johns
town proper, and, for a few moments, the
scene is entirely changed. The hundreds
and hundreds of tents which stretch them
selves row upon row all along the field; the
dying blaze of the smoldering embers in
watch fires, the quiet, steady step of the
soldier on guard with his musket on his
shoulder all that is a very pleasant sight
a picture in itself restful to the weary, war
like sleepers oeneain me canvas. One
might view it and think himself before a
camp of soldiers, out simply to follow the
necessary exercise of their vocation. But,
alas! as the memory dwells with lingering
satisfaction upon the merry times around a
soldiers' camp, the ruined structures of that
town loom up likewise in recollection.
There are the various churches, some with
their walls rent, some with spires hall
knocked off, others without the sheltering
roof. Again, the beholder notices the ruins
of once beautiful buildings, of peaceful
homes and happy households. "Where are
they now? Is it the darkness of night alone
that hides them? Are they still beyond the
shadows? Memory answers: Gone! all
gone, perhaps forever!
AX AWFUXT.T SUGGESTIVE SCENE.
From this point to the right the spectacle
revealed is nearly all the same one fnll of
painful shuddennc at its suggestiveness of
noming eise man norrors, aeatn, destruction
and despair! There, below you, is a mass
of ruined buildings, where hundreds of dead
bodies have been found in the last two
weeks. There is the appalling pile of terri
ble wreckage where the lortunes and the
happiness of thousand's lie buried beneath
the rubbish. Jfarther away, to the right,
you see at last that long stretch of debris
upon the rait in the front of the Pennsylva
nia Bailroad stone bridge. You see the
roofs of houses stretching their shattered
shingles toward heaven; you see the smoke
arise from the smoldering fires of blazing
wreckage. You see a hissing flame suddenly
flash up like that from burning lat, and
your first thought is: "What is it burns
so quickly there? the carcass of a brute or
the remains of one of the many
people lost, sure to be burned within that
field where many a death struggle must
have been fought 'on that memorable night
of the flood?"
A little above along the hill back of this
debris, long rafts of wood have been set
afire, and the blazing flames light up the
scene with a glare of red and fiendish-looking
brilliancy. The longer you look, the
more intense mis leeiing 01 siccening, sor
rowing terror overcomes you, until it seems
to be shaking you, as observer, to the very
marrow of your bones.
Still, there appeared to be a fascination in
the awful spectacle, which, all unconscious
ly, rooted me to my seat, lost in a reverie of
thoughts and fancies, that came and van
ished, like ghosts of the imagination!
But suddenly I heard the shriek of an
owl from oyer the hill, and as its echoing
sound resounded through the valley, I
started tr my feet, and, realizing the exact
situation, 1 arose to hurry to the hotel
where The Dispatch men are, just now,
the sole and only regular guests.

YACAM POLITICAL PLACES,
And tbe Impoitlbilttr of Filling Them From
the Wards Swept Away.
fFEOU A STAFF COBBESPOKDEKT.l
Johkstowk, June 14. A conversation
with Irwin Howell, the Burgess of Johns
town, this morning, was productive of an
idea of the peculiarly interesting state this
town is in politically. There were 51 Coun
cilmen, ol whom 3 lost their lives in the
flood: Dr. J. C. Beam, of the Second ward;
Jacob Swank, Fourth ward, and W. W.
Pike, Fifth ward.
''According to a law governing the elec
tion of Conncilmen," said the Burgess,
'there should be announced a re-election of
jCoUncilmen for these offices within 30 days
aftef such vacancy by de,ith." "This law
of course," continued Mr. Howell, "cannot
be enforced here now, under the existing
circumstances, because everything is upside
down.
"But, even if I should issue an order for
re-election, I do not know that it would do
any good, for this reason: Take for instance
the Second ward, where Dr. Beam was lost.
I could not have a re-election there, for the
tsiirfple reason that the entire ward, with the
exception ol four houses, has been com
pletely washed away. On that account a
re-election there is out of the question. The
same state of 'affairs exists in the Tirst
ward, where there are only a few houses left
standing.
"But there is another thing: The law
says that a Councilman shall be resident of
the ward he represents in Council. The
most of jctir Conncilmen, however, had to
find homes outside of the wards they rep
resent, and, according to law, they lose their
position for that reason.
"It is most likely that a reorganization of
the entire municipal government will have
to be effected as soon as the people are in
proper shape again, and the town has been
somewhat built up. Until then, there will
be no law here at all, except the law to
keep the peace." Heinkichs.
A NEW SANITARY MEASURE.
A Sritcm of Ilone-to-none Inspection
Adopted br the Health Board.
IFKOM A STA1F COEEESPOSDEST.l
Johnstowk, June 14. Dr. G. G. Groff,
the physician in charge of the State Health
Department in Johnstown, has instituted
another system of obtaining the actual state
ot health of the people of this city. To-day
he ordered a large number of circulars to be
printed, and this afternoon 30 men com
menced to make a house-to-house canvass to
obtain the following particulars:
The owner cr tenant ot the house; the street
and number; how manv persons ia the family;
how many males, females and children; any
present sickness the condition of the cellar, of
tbe rooms, of the yard, of the stable and the
surroundings; the source and condition of the
water supply and, finally. Has there been any
tcboid lever, diphtheria or scarlet fever in
the house within the last six months!
All these details will'have to be answered
en paper. Dr. Groff said he had started the
system in order to get a perfect acquaintance
with all the houses throughout the city in
order to aid in any case of sickness as soon
as it is reported.
The condition of health throughout the
district is just as good as ever. The first
case of typhoid fever was reported this
morning and the patient taken to the hospi
tal. This is the only case of the disease offi
cially reported, so far, but I have been told
of several others. However, as they are
only rumors I cannot say anything definite
about them.
There are still only three cases of diph
theria. Measles are to be found all over the
city even in the shape of an epidemic, but
as all these cases are of a very mild charac
ter,there is no reason to be alarmed at them.
