WATERLOO, Ia, July 12,-Yesterday the
Dry Run, which crosses this city, became
suddenly flooded by the heavy rains which
have been general in this section, and the
First and Second wards were speedily uu-
der water. Dwelling houses and all kinds
OF property were endangered, and the fire
department worked heroically in rescuing
property and saving life. The railroad
track OF the Burlington, Cedar Rapids and
Northern was soon three feet under water
for the distance OF 800 feet. The water
was nine inches deep on the floor OF the
Congregational church, and three feet
deep on the Opera House floor. The wa
ter subsided nearly as suddenly as 1t came.
Two boys, Fred Seaberling and young
Merwin, and girl whose name is un.
known, were drowned. The damage to
the city property is about $4,000. Re.
ports from neighboring villages state that
damage has also been sustained there on
account Of the wet weather and floods.
