1t is said that the wife of the marquis of
Blandford, now the duke of Marlborough,
who procured divorce from her profigate
husband some time ago, will not apply to
have the divorce made absolute. By
adopting this course she can retain the title
of the duchess of Marlborough, and prevent
her scapegrace husband from marrying his
paramount, Lady Ayles ford. On the other
hand, it is limited, that the duchess will ask
TO have the divorce made absolute that she
herself may marry a prominent tory of
sporting proclivities who recently became
a widoWer.

Fond du Lac, Wis. Badly Flooded.


A special of the 22d says: At intervals
during the entire week Fond du L.c hae
been visited by the most terrific transforms,
accompanied by heavy wind. Last night
about 1870 the heavens seemed to open and
a deluge of rain fell, sweeping all light ma
teriaI before it. This was kept up a good
share Of the night, and at the dawn of
morning everybody was of the opinion that
heavy rain bad prevailed. They little
knew what was in store for them. The us
ual large number Of leople wended their
Way to church, little dreaming that before
return their homes would he flooded and
carpets and furniture ruined; but
such was the case. At about Ii
a. N. several dams on Geneva creek gave
way and tie vast quantity Of water which
was thus confined swept the entire eastern
= rtion OF the city. The rear of the water,
as it rushed along receiving reinforcements
at every foot could be heard over great por-
ton Of the city. Upward Of 200 dwelling
houses are submerged more or less, accord
iug to location. For TWO hours the water
continued to rise until it was depth of
three feet in the middle of the streets. At
this writing it is gradually receding. The
water travelled with such velocity that it
tore up the Division street pavement and
the lower end of the street, and washed it
away to a depth of several feet, and still it
rains.

Col. A. R. Kiefe,, president of the Ger

nany, whose general office is located in st.

these reports covered Minnesota, Dakots
and portions of Wisconsin and Iowa. The
first lost reported was on June IL in Monroe

danasge was very slight. The heavies: loss
and damage occurred in the storm of Ju Y

Wis, the following day July Is. In the
former county nineteen losses were reported
destroying one.haif the crop, and in Dunn
county, Wis. thirteen losses were reported,
mostly to the tobacco crop. There the loss
was also about one half. Storms have been
also reported in Lyon, Pipestone, Pope and
Brown counties in Minnesota and from
Manitowoc and Marquette counties, Wis,
where the damage has been from 1-8 to IA
per cent of the crops. All these storms
have been local in character, and to . large
extent are confined to few individuals
The reports TO the company are up to the
