Great Floo<l in Ptttsburg.
The lower portions of Pittsburg and
Allegheny were a temporary Venice lest
Saturday and transportation was by
wagon and boat. At 6 p m. there was
35 ft. 8 in. of water in the Allegheny at
Herr's Island; and 32ft. -tin. in the
Monongahala river at Mtrlt.'C St.
Early Satnrday morning all street car
traffic was suspended between the two
cities. Railroads were crippled and
suburbanites had great difficulty reach
ing town. Wagons took the place of
trolly cars and hauled people across the
waters that backed up Sixth street and
other streets leading across the Alle
gheny river. Residents of the West
End were compelled early in the day to
make a detour over Mt. Washington to
reach the main city. Mills lining the
river banks were compelled to close,
throwing thousands of men out of em
ployment. In the two cities fully
20,000 men were thrown idle
The loss is incalculable. Furnaces
are ruined in many mills and it will
require many days to clean the machin
ery Fine engines are coated with mud
and rusted by the water. The loss that
will be felt most will fall on the work
men. who will be compelled to remain
idle for several days. A safe estimate
is that SIOO,OOO per day will not cover
the loss from this cause alone.
The mail service was crippled, every
train arriving late on all the railroads.
On the Pittsburg & L,ike Erie railroad
trains did not leave the station at all
Saturday. The water covered the
tracks between the station and the
Point bridge several feet deep. At
Sawmill run it was also away over
the tracks. The Baltimore & Ohio
suffered greatly by loss of bridges,
and was compelled to send passengers
for the East through Wheeling and
Grafron. The Pennsylvania railroad
was in the best shape, and as soon as
the street car service in Allegheny
suspended trains were run from the
Union depot every five or ten minutes
Trains were also added on the Pan
handle between the city and Carnegie.
The city engineers made examina
tions of all the bridges in the after
noon. The Sixteenth street bridge
over the Allegheny was ordered closed
by Director Leslie of Pittsburg and
Director McAfee of Allegheny. The
bridges at Herr's Island and Forty-third
street were also closed.
The waters began falling about 9
| o'clock Saturday night and next day all
i the cars were running.
A Few Words from the County
Superintendent.
The schools of our county will soon
be closing this present term's work.
At this time of the year interest
too often lags. Poor attendance and
poor interest toward the end of the term
often spoil what otherwise would have
been a successful term's work.
That tired feeling which sometimea
gets into a school at this season of the
year is fatal to progress and should be
feared by all pupils and teachers. No
other part of the term's work requires
so much real perseverance as does the
last month of the term. At that time
pupils are doing more advanced work
than usual and if they are to fully mas
ter it they must put forth good effort.
The reviews and examinations which
should come in all schools will now Boon
begin and will call up many things
which need special care. More real
lasting school work can lie done and
should be done during the last month
than was accomplished during any other
like period of the year. >
For this and other reasons children
should remain in school to the end of
the term. Dropping out of school be
fore the term ends is a common, but
very fatal habit in many schools, and is
one which ought to be condemned by
teachers and parents. This very habit
spoils the reports, discourages the teach
ers, ruins the schools and deprives the
boys and girls of their education, and
yet the whole habit is unnecessary and
uncalled for in most of cases.
Boys and girls let me here again re
mind yon that school days are but few,
and that you will soon need more real
education than you will then have. If
this is true can you afford to miss school
now ?
The advancing civilization in whicu
we are now living is making it harder
and still harder every year for men :tDd
women to succeed in life unless they are
educated If you want to enter life's
work well prepared, if you want to be
one of the thinkers and doers of your
day and generation, if you want to pos
stss the true key which will unlock for
vou the doors of success in every honest
work, you must take with you a good,
intelligent, Christian education That
is the foundation upon which life's
work rests, and if yon have it your
chances for winning will be tenfold bet
ter than they will be if you have it not.
Teachers, put fonrth your best tact
and talent in these closing days of lliis
term. Much remains yet to be done
You may not accomplish it all, but you
can do your best, and anything short of
this is not enough.
Your calling is a noble one and if yon
do your work well future manhood and
womanhood will be blessed thereby
Your pay now is indeed small but re
member that for every honest, faithful
teacher there waits a reward more pre
cious than silver or gold.
In a few more days I will have been
in each school of the county this term,
and I feel safe in saying that as a whole
onr schools wore never better taught
Not one teacher was removed this year
by the directors Fewer failures among
the teachers, less from
the parents and better attendance by
the pupils than we mostly bave made
the year's work a real success
Local Institute work and educational
meetings were also a success. Some of
these were so largely attended that the
buildings in which' they were held
would not hold all who came. I attend
ed twenty some of these meetings and
am glad to say that I never have seen
more, real interest shown in this work
than what was done this year.
Parents enconrage your children to
use those school libraries —about two
hundred of which have been put into
onr schools in the past three years.
Good boobs are good, safe com pan ions
for children and it is well for the teach
ers and parents to tell the boys and
girls so.
The visitors' daysc illed m»iny patrons
into the schools and v. e think the last
day of this term might be well spent in 1
that same way.
March 29th will be examination day
for diplomas. Yours truly,
HOWARD I. PAINTER.

SPONGE FISHING.
IICT'OIIII n Depth of Fifty Feet Tlify
Must Be Got by Divers.
The sponge is an animal and not a
vegetable, as some state. It breathes,
eats and, when In the water. Is filled
with mucus. The sponge In its famil
iar state is only a carcass. Sponges
are known to grow at a depth of 200
feet and live even deeper, doubtless.
At the depth of fifty feet they can be
forked by an expert fisher, but at a
greater depth they must be got by
diving. »
Sponge fishers use a glass by which
sponges can be seen growing on the
bottom. The instrument is in the na
ture of a pail with a glass bottom, at
tached to the bow of the boat. It is
submerged, so as to steady the vision,
which otherwise would be contorted
by the waves. The water where
sponges prow is very clear, and bottom
'can be seen at a great depth.
