The destruction wrought in the valley of the Juniata aud SuMjue hmiu.t are very much alike, and one fx'eue such as was witness I in this county at this place, and iu Patter-H.-1I1, at Hornintowu, at Port Royal, at M.xico. at Thompsontown and aloiiy the creeks aud on the fa rain is typical of the scenes every where the Hood rajred.

Add to that the Johustown horror aud what n costly enterprise thty pp'Vtd thi tnselvts t l The caluai ou the other side of the AlWpheny mountain wn fed by a rest rvoir of water located iu a pap in the mountain '.ill miles lx-youd Altoona and H miles east of Johns town. When the cau:kl van aband oned the reseroir or dam was kept up by n party of rich men from Iitts burp, as a fish lake, a loat lake and general summer resort They bought the surrounding mountain land and in the mountain r'treut wiled awav such leisure davs as thev had at their disposal during the sunim-r months. The dam was 100 feet deepjwhen full miles louy and covered 5U0 acres. It was built across a raviue or gap through which flowed a little creek South Fork t'n-ek, which empties in to the iWiii&uuh river two miles below the dam, uiuo miles below the junction of the creek with the river was located Johnstown on the flat land idong tho Coneinaugh. ( n Thursday May 30 the manage ment of tho dam hail a large force of mon ougnged iu cutting the ends of tho daiu so that the surplus of rain water could escape without breaking the breast of tho reservoir. Almost at 12 o'clock, noon, ou Fri- dav, Mrw 31, the dam minagi.ment became comiuced that they cciuld not ave the lake. It was then that :. :ik::: named Parke, mounted a horse and ::t full speed rode down the road along South Fork Creek, shouting " the dam, the dam, is breaking." K aching the Couemaujjh river road he continued down the valley as hard as tho horse could run sounding the alarm. He rode through Johnstown sounding the death knell, but few of the people he ded it. Hut that was not all. Tho I'er.usyU ania railroad passts up the Conemaugh river on its way to Cresson, and just where South Fork Creek empties its water into the river is v. telegraph station. The operator in tli station telegraphed Parke's thrilling message all along the hue. rhr.l'E Hoi us alter Parke's alarm at U o'clock p. m. the daiu broke and, in 40 minutes time the pent up water had shot out of tho valley down South Fork Creek carrying even-thing before it at the hight of " feet to Conemaugh river, and thence down the river on a wave of 10 feet sweeping all the towns and locomotives and trains of cars in the valley iu oue indiscribable mass against Johnstown, which passes away under the hurculean pressure and left not one brick upon another to murk the place where the houses stood. Below the twn is a massive stone railroad bridge with high arches against which the drift lodged. In tho deluge of 11 miles more than S00O people lost their lives- The upsetting of a cook stove in a frame house that floated among tho drift against the bridge set the pile on fire, and to the horrors of the flood was added the horrors of fire. roBftomtN.

Finally they were lodged in chief topic of consideration. " 1 that solid toiM of sixty acres of minu thk lom r tttuta I amounts to several thousand dollar, 1 but no detailed estimate will be pre seated in there columns till the re ports are all in. The commis.siout.rs Late been ac tively engaged iu arranging to have the many county bridges that were swept away replaced, which will en tail a large increase of the county indebtedness and put the building of bridpes across the iiver beyond the financial reach of the county. The ptople. have suffered to heavy losses through tho county to con sent to the shouldering of a large in debtedness for river bridges in addi tion to the indebtedness that will be entailed upon them in replacing the bridges that the countr sow has charge of. This countr baa manv nulls, the moat of which have been seriouslr damaged. The large drift piles on farms along the river are sending off sickening oler, which, as the summer advances, mav generate death dealing disease. The aitc of TV. D. Cramer's house. Jetfu-rson Mover's three houses.Alonzo Fasick s house and John Monohan s house, in Patterson, and the bridpe. toll house, the Molsou house and the John Tyson house are swept clean, and there is nothing about their foundations to indicate that within the past fortnipht they wero the lo cations of happy homos. The house and outbuildings of Lewis Straver were not swept awav, but were mov ed from their foundations, and pre sent most a desolate appearance. The same mav be said of the house occu pied bv Jonathan Khiner on the Craig lot north of town. The deso late appearance of the land along the river and creeks of this county is a picture of the apjearance of the river in other counties, and is a picture on a smaller sculo of the ruin that pre vails in the valley of the Susque hanna. The destruction of property in Hlair, Huntingdon, Mitlliu, Juninta and Perry counties, is equalled in the counties of O utre, Clearfield, Lycom ing, L'uion, Snyder and Dauphin, but these are not all the counties east of the backbone of the Allegheny mountain that have been desolated, the destruction in other counties of the State is great, but not as appall ing. M A visitor to flixnl swept Johnstown, writes of the central part of the town : Not a brick remains, not a stone nor a stick of timber iu all this terri tory. There are not t-tn hummocks and mouuds to show where wreckage might be covered with a layer of inud. They are not there, they are gone every building, every street railways and everything tlse that covered the surface of the earth has vanished as utterly as though it had never leen there. The ground was swept as clean as though some tuightv scraper Lad been dragged ovc-r it again and again ot even the lines of the streets can 1 even remotely trareL "Wandering over this muddy plain one cau realize something of what must Lave been the gigantic force of that vast whirlpool. It pressed upon the town like some hue millstone, weighing tens of thousands of tons aud revolving with awful velocity. pounding to jnjwcr everything be neath. Hut tlie conception of the power of that horrible eddy of the Sool must remain ;. eble until that sixty a-res of burning wreckage is ins.ted. It seems fr-jm a little distance like anv other mass of wreck age, though vastly longer than any ever lefore seen iu this country. It must have leen many times more tremendous when it was heaped up twenty feet higher over its w hole area and before the fire leveled it off. But neither then nor now can the full terror of the flood that piled it there be adequately realized until a trip across parts wnere the fire has been extinguished shows the manner in w hich the stuff composing it is pack ed together. It is not a Leap of broken timbers lvinjj looselv thrown logerner in au directions. It is a solid mass. Tho boards and timbers which made up the frame buildings are laid together as closelv as sticks of wood in a pile more closely, for they are welded into one another un til each stick is as solidlv fixed in place as though all were one. A cur ious thing is that whenever there are a few boards together thev are edpe up, aud never standing on end or flat. The terrible force of tho whirlpool tuat ground four square miles of buildings into sixty acres of wreck- ! aire left no opiortuuitv for tTasDS or holes between pieces in the liver. Everything was packed together o& solidly ns though by sledge-hammer blown. "But the boards ntid timber of four Houure miles of buildings are not all that ii in that sixty re mass. Au immense amount of wreck from further up the valley lien there. Twenty-seven locomotives, several Pullman earn, and probably a hun dred other oars, or all that is left of them, are in that iim. Fragments of iron bridges can be seen sticking out occawionally above the wreckage They are about the only things the tire has not levelled, except the cur ious hillock au eighth wf a mile back from the bridge, where the flames apparently raged less fiercely. Scat tered over the area also are many blackened logs that were too big to be entirely burned, ami that stick up now like spar buoys in a ee of ruin. Little jets of fiame, almost unseen by daylight, but appearing as evening falls, are scattered thickly oer the surface of tbe wreckage. "All this is horrible to seer more horrible than it can possibly be to read of : but the worst is untold. The smoke that hovers over the wreckage by the bridge, and floats in light bine clouds above the town, is heavy with an odor rarely amelled. But it is the flesh of human beings that cause the odors at which, every newcomer here shivers with horror. Those who have been here long don't mind it ; they are used to it, and there are more matters than smell to attend to. The cruel whirlpool that Hounded four square miles of build iuTs into dust and splinters did not spare the eople. Their bodies were irround beneath the pressure of the i awful millstone of the flood, an were I the brick and mortar of tbe buildings, Thev were torn limb from limb, heap- . . 1 . . 4 1 1 along with the ruins of their hornets wedged in as tightly as though hu- man flesh was no more than broken wood and iron. There they are, those that have not boen burned in the fire that leveled the whole mass, or that were not carried above the top of the bridge in the first rush of the flood. How duet there were cannot be told. A most serious feature of the lodpinp of this mass of stuff against the bridge is that all the water of the Conemaugh aud of Stony Creek has to pass through it on its way to the Allephenr and to the water sup ply source of Pittsburgh. The bod ies in the mass are already be pin ning to emit an odor more offensive than that of their roasting, and the langer to the health of localities further down stream is believed to be immediate and serious. First Belief From Abroad.

Johnatowa was such a hive of Industry and hsd such great interests clustering abont it.jibat evory phase of civilized life ia rspre sentrd in the wreckage of the flood. In the wild rush of water that followed the break, ing of the dam was a railroad train. The Philadelphia Inquirer, in speaking of the washing away of the train aays : W. U, Colby, of this city, who waa one of tbe passengers on the second section of tbe ill-Med day express at Johnstown at the time of the disaster, arrived here snd briefly related some interesting incidents. Mr. Colt-y, who is still suffering from the shook, SAid : I was stsnding on the rear platform talking to Ross Rutbford.of Vermont, when the brakeman of the train came rushing tbrongh tbe car shoutina Tbe dam haa burst The conductor aod brakeman, three or four other passengers, Mr. Rntbford and myself got off the car as quickly as possible and started on a run for tbe top of the hi.l. Before we reached tbe top, however, the water was upon us, but fortunately we had got beyond danger A SCZXS BITOSB) ciscaiPTiox. When we stopped to look around we beheld a terrible sight. The cars, the track and everything were swept away. In tbV s'ead e ssw a mad rush of bubbling, seeth ing waters tilled with dend bodies and de bris, sweeping everything in its course. I cannot be(rin to explain ,it. It cannot be det-cribed. It was simply terrible to look at. e remained where we were for lime time. We couldn't do anything. We were help.ess, but just as soon as the water be. gan to subside we determined to belp the passenger who remained in tbe cars. We reached the eastern end of the bridge. against which the train had lodged, and found it was utterly impossible to get to the cars. "The train waa not forced backward, it was swept otf the track awd earned diagon ally sot to the third pier ef the bridge where it lo-iged on top of the accumulated debria. Wa tried to save tbe lives of sous ot those wbo were struggling in the waters. A P ATACTIC STOAT. Among tbe party standing where ws sen was s man fully : leet three inches in height. lie was covered with mud and was somewhat bruised,. be having previous ly escaped tbe fury of the waters, snd bad managed to reach shore. We all saw a Hos-ciog roof moving down the current, ca whxh were a wonaa and two childres. This man I apeak of, with one look towaed. it. said: My God, toys, it's my wife aod. children !' and in leas time than it takes to teU it he waa flgLiing his way throngb the floating debris. Se succeeded ia reaching the roof, which, was fortunately being ear. tied inland, asd, with one child in bis arms he a track oat toe above, which he leached la safety, ate repeated the perieimance and got oft the other child. By this time be was neariy exhausted and only his pow erful Ira as sustained him, aad the roof meanwhile was slowly going oat. Tbe man ran down the bank about thirty feet ahead ot the rvof, when be plunged ira and slter a greet deal of trouble managed to get on tbe roof with hia wile, who was almost helpless with fear snd fright, lie induced bis wits to leave the roof and with brr in bis arms he made for the shore. TBE MAV Lb(T. 3" We were doing all ia our poncr to aa. ut him and had jn.t lifted hii wife safely op wbea a large log which, uaaea by as, wmm floating down, truck him ia the fore head. He ank sod we w no aioro of him. Worn hii wite came to we gave her the lit tle onea and they were all taken care or, bat the eight of that man wM livo ia my memory forever. - Mental Sufferine. Tho phyical uftwriug of proplo injured ... i . i id the joonatowa noon, i in addition to that ia mental audaring that maoy end ore. Tbia ia a picture of one of tho many diatrraaing cases of phyaical and mental diatreaa in that atricaon town, sod waa written by one of the many newapaper men who havo been there. Oo a cot in the hospital on Froapect hill there Ilea at present a man injured bodily, almoat to death, bat whose mental Buffer ings are ao great as to overabadow bla phy sical Bufferings. Hia name ia Vering. Mo has lost in the flood hia whole family wife and five children. The look of despair and agony on that poor man'a face would cause tears to flow from adamant. In an inter view be atatea - I was at borne with my wile and children when the alarm came. We hurried from the honae. leaving: everything: behind us. Aa we reached the door a genUemAn triend waa rnnnlng by. lie grasped the two smaller children, one under each arm, and hurried on ahead of na. I hid my arm around mj wife supporting her. Behind na we could hear the Hood rushing upon ua. In one hur ried glance as I passed a corner I could see the fearfnl flood crunching acd cracking the houses in its fearful grasp. I then could see that there was no posi bility of our escape, aa we were too lar away from tbe hillsides. In a very few mo rn nta It was upon us. In a Hash I saw the three dear children licked up by it and din appear from sight as I and my wife were thrown ioto tbe air by tbe vanguard of the rushing ruios. We found ourselves in among s lot of drift, driving along with the f peed of a racehorse. In a moment or t we were thrown with a crash against the aide of a latze frame buildinc, wboae walla gave way before it as easily aa if they were made ot fie crust, aod the timbers began to I ill about us in all direations. Up to tbia time I had retained a firm hold upon my wile, but as 1 found myself pinned between two heavy timbers, tbe agony caused my aenaes to leave me momentarily. I recov eiel inatantly in time to ace my wile's head jest disappearing under water. "Like lightring I grasped her by the hair and, as best 1 could, pinioned aa I waa above tbe water by the timbers, I raiaed ber above it. The weight proved too much and aba sank sgain. Again I pulled ber to the sur face and again she sank. Tbia I did again and agaiu, with no avail. She drowned in that very graap, aod at Inst she dropped from my nerveless bands to leave my aight forever. "Aa if I bad not suffered enough, a few momenta afterwards I aaw some objects whining around in an eddy which circled arounl until, reaching again tbe current, tbey floated past me. 'My God, man ! Would you believe me ? It waa three of my children, all dead. Their dear Iituo laces are before mo now dis torted ia a look of agony that, no matter what I do, haunts we. "OU ! if I could only have released my. self at that moment I would hive willingly died with them. I waa rescued some time after and have bees here ever since. I hare since learned that my irieud who ao bravely endeavored to save two o! the children waa lost with them." The Danger from Dams. From the New Tors. Sun. In December, 1887, ball's million of peo ple were destroyed by tbe overflowing of tbe Yellow H ver Iu China sad s whole dia tiiot of tho Empire was laid waste. It was a calamity which aeemed to us to be possi ble only in a country that had not reached tbe high development of civilization pre vailing here. Yet if tbe region devastated by tbe Con emaugh flood laat week bad been sa dense, ly populated as tbe Chioeae province ot Honen, tbe lose of lite might have been aa great. If Jchnstown bad been s comiuuui ity as numerous as maoy . communities In that fertile Chinese district, the multitude ot thoae who perished would have bees in creased by tens of thousands . For the tor rent was irreaistable, and the loss of life would have been measured by tbe number of people dwelling along ita course. We aee, therefore, that "even Western Civilization snd Western 'engineering ;Lave proved no more capable than the Oriental to stay snd control tbe forces ot nature in such an emergency. It is not possible to determine yet whether anytconsu uction j I he North Fork dam or any carelessness tin its raaintaiaance rcntributrd to bring abov the awlut catastrophe ; but the damage wrought by tbe spring frasbeta in mauy parts of tbe country laat week auggesta a reaso nable doubt whether blame can be justly -laid on tbe shonldera sf tbe engineers and the custodians ot tbe structure. Per heps It might have given away under the tremendous, tbe'unforseen and the extraor dinary atr-sin lo which it was eubje cted, no matterhow great may have been tbe enri. searing precautious, according to all tat rules and calculations of tbe best practice of the profession. But we may property doust tbe wisdom of builissg any great dan ia a situation like that ahoaea for the North Fork dam. Tbe aestioa is oi importance and perti nee te the people of New York at ibis time because there is sov-i proposition to baild by lar the greatest dam in the world to tbe north of the town, for tbe purpose of lolding the waters of the Croton basin, so that they may be sent to tbe city tbrongh , e new aineduct. Cnaoubttdly the scheme has the support of tbe hizhsat eogi , oerring talent and experience snd K bss ' sees considered ia aCl its bearisgs for masy years. The engineer of tbe old aqua duct snd Mr. Church, tbs jwesent consult ing engineer, under whose supervision tbe new aqueduct haa been buDt sen ia entire agreement that tbe dam offered the best so lution of tbs probata ol s water supply for New York. Nor do wo know of any by. draulic engineer in this cotuAry of superior professional standing, who ass sot gises bis sasent to the project as feasible and aa desirable. If we are to rely on tbe Croton baain for our entire water aupply there may be no doubt that the construction ot the sam is eaacatiaj. That it can be bans si a coat that is hardly calculable, snd that wbea it is built it will be one of tbe wonders of the world. Is aot less doubtful. Yet after the experience of the bursting et the Mill Kirer dsm in sUssachuaselts 15 j years ago, and or the Cooomaugh dam is Feeest (Tenia last, will sot engineers hesi. tats aboot constructing above the gre s capital of the '" World an experiments at mo tare of the kind, which will be tbs ni st eaoTsaont ever undertaken 1 We want more water but we do aot want it in such torrents as destroyed Jehnstown. The available sources of water mpply lor New York are many. We sre not obliged to conn no ourselves to sny which neceasi. tate the bnilding of s dam of prodigious coat, sod possibly of terrible danger to the community.
