headed by three of the most popular
fem;le writer's for chillren-Rosc Ter.

has also one of the liveliest and most

on "How to Make a Boat" Our pat

portraits and anecdotes Of "American

sketch of the first naval battle in
American waters one hundred years

"Our Flag" then and now. The

Half the City Inundated.-.Great De-
structi0n Of Property.

Between 3 and 4 o'clock this morn.
ing, June 18, the heaviest and most
destructive rain storm occurred that
has taken place here for many years
It rained perfect torrents for two Oh
three hours, ard many parts of the city
were inundated, the sewers being in
capable Of carrying off the immense
quantity Of water that fell. There was
also high wind, and the lightning
was incessant and almost terrible. The
damage in various parts Of the city
is very heavy, in some places property
being wholly destroyed. A row Of
dwellings on Washington street, be-
tween Twenty first and Twenty.second
streets were so damaged it is supposed
they will have to be almost entirely
taken down.
Near Grand Avenue station, on the
Missouri and Pacific Railway, the wa
ter is so deep tenement house is sub
merged. Farther down the railroad
track the water is 20 feet deep
Around the machine shops Of the CON-
pany the water is very deep, aud
rushes through the shops several inch
es deep. The extensive line Of sheds
en- the corner Of Seventh and Victor
Streets ignited by the Stacking Of lime
and were consumed. There is quite a
hollow inro which the adjacent streets
runs. This neighborhood is made up
Of one and two story houses, all of
which were more or less inundated,
and the occupants were forced to fee
IN her night clothes to save their lives.
A 15.inch pipe has been draining
this locality since the storm, and this
afternoon there is still six or eight
inches of water in the hollow. The
damage to property there will be sew
eral THOUSAND dollars. Engine pumps
have been actively at work all day
pumping the water from cellars, base
ments, and lower floors of dwellings,
but ia many places little gain has been
made on the water. A number Of
parties threaten the city for damages
on account of the meagre capacity of
the sewers. 1t will be many days be-
fore hundreds Of houses in different
parts of the city, c.n te made habita-

PrOhibltionist Ticket.

tionists, held a State convention il

nominated full State Ticket a. fol-
lows:
For governor-Prof. r. F. Hum
miston, Of Mobiles county.
For lieut.. governor-J. B. Tuttle
of Anoka county,
For secretary Of state-John H
Stevens of Henuepin county.
For chief justice-Sherman Page

For state treasurer-H. D. Brown,
of Freeborn.
For clerk cf the supreme court.-P.
A Jewell, of Wabashaw.
For railroad commissioner-A. 4. NJ
Greeley, of Hennepin.
The platform sets forth, among 9th
er things the following:
History teaches US that corrupt po.
litical parties are never reformed, but
must die.
Removal from public service for
mere difference Of political opinion. is
practice opposed to sound policy aud
just principles.
Fixed and moderate salaries should
take the place OF official fees and per.
qdisitcs.
President, Vice President and U. S.
Senators should be elected by direct
vote Of the people.
A sound national currency converti
bic into gold and silver at the will of
the holder is favored.
The Sabbath is Of divine origin
beneficial to man, and it is the duty of
the government to maintain quiet and
good order on that day.
The producing, commercial, and in j..
dustrial interests Of the country should
have the best and cheapest modes of
transportation possible, and while cap
ital invested in such means of transit,
whether by railroad or otherwise,
should be permitted the right of rea-
sonable and just compensation, all
abuse ia management, excessive rates
of toll, and all unjust Determinations
against localities, persons, or interests
practiced by them, should be prohibit.
ed by law, and the people should be
protected from the improper and arb;-
trary use of the vast powers possessed
by railroad and other transportation
companies.
An adequate public revenue being
necessary, it may be properly raised by
import duties and an equitable assess.
u eut upon the property and legitimate
business OF the country, nevertheless
we are opposed to any discripination
Of capital against labor, as we'll as to
all monopoly and class Legislation, aud
to the policy of sustaining the govern.
ment by tax upon the sorrow, shame,
misery and crime Of our people result.
ing from the licensed sale of intox ca.
ting liquors for that purpose.
The enactment and execution of
laws against the importation, manufac.
ture, sale and use OF poisoned and in-
toxicatiny liquors is distinctly the
work Of the government in its organ
lied capacity.
The only consistent attitude for all
temperance people to maintain toward
this destructive business is that of a
thoroughly organized and perpetual
hostility.

New EM0tOr.

The new motor, not only as a fact,
but as useful and enormous addition
to the sum total Of human happiness,
is it is claimed, almost within the linn
its Of realization. It is confidently
predicted that, within thirty days, q
train Of Pullman car. will be drawn
from Philadelphia to New York with.
out steam, electricity, hot.air, or any
other motive power. This, indeed is
a substantial promise, the basis of
which c1n easily aud soon be examin-
ed. The new motor, as We took occa-
sion to explain some weeks ago, was
invented, or discovered, by John w.
keeley. Since our first statement some
new developments have been made.
The whole matter, it appears, is in the
hands of a stock company, composed
chiefly of Philadelphia and New York
capitalists, who have paid in $3.50, 900
and hold stock to nominal value Of
81 1,000,O0o They are perfectly san
guine of the success of the enterprise,
but are not themselves in possession of
Kelley's secret. There is reason to
fear, therefore: that possibly the inge-
NOUS Keeley may not be a public
benefaotor after all and that the
wonderful pressure Of 1000 to $4,000
pounds which. has been attained through
a machine Of 36 inches high, "a long
aud 13 wide, will disappear altogether
when used In an engine Of any large
size.-Chicago Tribune.
