A TERRIFIC THUNDER STORM
passed over the camp at supper time last eve
ming For two hours the rain rushed down In
streams. sweeping down Third and Second ave-
nueS. The water collected before the cottage
OF MessTs. WOOD and Sinclair and on the floor OF
where it was unable to run Off from the small
ness OF the pipe, which is the outlet. The out
let Is but siXtncheS 1t should be at least twelve
The water also collected Oh Fifth avenue, where
1t formed quite lake. Nearly all the tents
stood without leaking, but those that did leak
caused their occupants much trouble, and, In
some cases, drove them out to better shelter
The water came through the roof OF the board
ing ten in streams, showing that in one case at
least the committee should make repairs. Sew
eral OF the tents were overlooked, and the water
at one time was two inches deep all over the
ground except the higher portion. During the
rain crowd of darkeys got together in vacant
tent and sang, LET Me In the Life Boat" Others
soon followed by singing, 81 Look Away Across
continued through the night Rev Mr.. Hagey
improved the time by holding prayer meeting
In his tent.
The directors Of the camp association have
to beautify 1t and to furnish amusement. This
seems hardly necessary, as all tnat is needed to
fol m lake is to dam each avenue and wait for
Ine certain rain. B.
