atiyely slight damage within the limits OF
our city the country west and north oil u did
not fare so well.
We we're informed by Harry BORDEN, con-
ductor on the Central Branch, that for a
strip of FIVE miles whole fields of corn were
blown PROSTATE TO the ground and in great
MANY cases the stalks broken of. Wheat
and rye were spread out like carpet, while
there was a very perceptible damage to fruit.
Mr.. John NJ. Holmes, who lives Just
west of town, saws his whole field OF corn was
blown down, and many Of the stalks broken
of, the corn having grown 40 rapidly that il
was as brittle as glass. He aiso says that
over one-half of the apples were blown OF his
trees, and that in neither corn nor apples
will he have half crop.
From parties along the A. 4 \. road, We
learn that the same stste Of affairs existed,
and that the same proportion OF damage has
been done.

etc, have been before the public many years
and have gained for Themselves, on their

High water 9. che Solomon.

During the high water in the Solomon and
Smoky last month many of the Old settlers
predicted that it would not answer for the
proverbial "June rise," and this prediction
proves true. A correspondent at Lindsey
writing to local paper, says:
THE storm came from a northeriy d.
rection, and by nine o'clock the Pipe Creek
Valley WAS inundated from hill 10 hill on
either side of the valley. The water flowed
down the valley 40 suddenly that many per-
sons scarcely made their escape to the hills,
having to leave behind everything they had.
Some of the dug-ou;s were entirely subner
ged, and in MANY of the houses the water
reached from three to four feet above the
first floors. A great amount of damage has
been sustained to property, but as We. We
have learned OF no lives being lost.
Thousands of acres OF grain have been de-
stroyed, and considerable stock drowned.
Mr. Woolcut, living about a mile and half
north of this place, lost a mare and colt.
Several other persons lost horses, bit We did
rot learn their names.
The Oldest citizens say that the water was
considerably higher on Sunday last in Pipe
creek, and also in the Solomon river below
the mouth of Pipe creek, than 1t has ever
been known before. The bridge at the mouth
of Pipe creek, on the msil route from Solo.
mon City via this place TO Cswker CITY, waa
swept away.
We learn that gentleman by the name Of
John Beck was drowned in Goa! creek, on
Tuesday last, while attempting 10 cross the
creek on a mule.
Last Thursday night, says a constan. viz
itor at the Thomls garden concerts in New
York, l witnessed what | thought propos-

but evidently serious TO those engaged. Ii

Augustus wrote long sentence, a letter COW

nored Pamela, IA she re ID the writing on
the fan, bluIhei "cele-iisl rosy red and
then turned pale and trenoled. She turned
the ian over and wrote on the clean side
two word; then, after a few moments OF
hesitation, touched her lovers arm and
pushed the fan toward him. Augustus
smiled, thrust the fan in his breast tocket,
and getting up offered Pamela his arm.
Fortunately the last note of part second was
finished, and these doves could leave thei,
ses,s and go into the garden. l presumed
