IN DIRR DISTRESS.
The Proprietor of the Last Chance Rescued
From Drowning.

Saturday evening there was rapid rise
in the Trinity river, and that night, before
he hardly had time to know it, the proprie-
tor of the Last Chance, who runs small
grocery and saloon in the river bottom,
about midway between the bridge and
bluffs, found that he vas surrounded by
water, which rose so rapidly that
the floor was soon covered with water three
feet deep. Seeing that he was in danger of
being drowned he put a iavorite pup in q
box up on the shelving and lighting his
lantern, he swung it vigorously, giving
the signal of distress, which was
fortunately seen by boatman
who went to his aid and landed him safely
at the bridge. Directly after he had landed
he bethought himself of his dog, and a
second trip was made to the house and the
dog brought over safe and sound. The
house, which is a frame shanty-like build
lnr, is securely fastened to pieces which
are some six feet in the ground or else it
would have washed away. Sunday morn
ing the river began to fall as rapidly as it
rose, and now the turnpike is almost clear
of water. Saturday night the house was
Hooded seven feet deep with water
