have beer sent cut from Harrisburg,
Texas, with Boats to rescue the suf-
ferers BY the food of the Colorado
valley, who took rsfuge in the tree
tops In Eagle Lake bottom, and have
been there for two days. Positive in-
formation has been received that the
water was two feet over the tops OF
telegraph poles on farms IN Eagle
Lake bottom, which are cultivated
every year. There are various ru-
mors from Bastrop, but as communi-
cation is entirely cut OF. none can be
credited. 1t is impossible to arrive at
the extent Of the loss in the towns
along the Colorado until the water
falls. It has fallen six feet already.
The Brazos is still rising. 1t is re-
ported that all the rivers near San
Antonio are out Of their banks.

mission of one of the most heinous crimes known
to the law, should not only give rise to the re-
Election that the State is the guardian Of the lives

in connection herewith the correlatlvc fact that
the Christian culture OF the citizen Is not only the
duty but the highest duty Of socety-the State
Am not in some measure ut least In the sight of
God responsible for the crimes committed by the
ignorant, vicious aud deprayed members OF suc-

State-we assume the terrible responsibility o
