The Ohio River Floods
still Raging.

FEB 15th.-The towns and cities on
the Ohio river have been visited by the
greatest flood of the century. So great
and appalling is the disaster that pen
fails to adequately describe the misery
and destitution prevailing. Over Cne
hundred thousand people are homeless
and destitute and must be provided
with food and clothing for weeks to
come.
a special from ,Gallipolis, Ohio, says:
The relief steamers Nora Belle and jim
Montgomery returned from trip down
the river last night. They report that
the village of Alfalfa, Ohio, is almost
entirely swept away. At Millersport,
Ohio, twenty or thirty houses are gone.
At Proctorville, Ohio, the water is in
the second stories. At Ctredo, W. Va.
100000 worth of lumber was lost.
SuppheSare greatly needed everywhere.
The relief committee is using four small
steamers TO distribute supplies, which
are coming in literally.
CINCINNATI, Feb. l5th.-The town
Maysville had not been heard from un-
til to day, when a committee composed
of Captain Kirker, JudgeCollins and n
Presbyterian minister, of that place, on
their way to Cincinnati in skItf, hailed
the Kate Waters and were taken on
board. They report the town is almost
ruined. Brick buildings are crumbling
to pieces and frame houses are washing
away. The militia company rs patrOll-
ing the streets in boats distributing
food but the supply is about exhausted.
All along the river the story comes of
most generous aid rendered by farmers
and others far into the interior who
have sent food in wagons, without
which much suffering would have re-
suited. Aberdeen, opposite Maysville,
was badly wrecked by the late storm.
The town is entirely destitute of coal
oil and is practically in darkness
Some help has been sent there from
Maysville. Ripley has fully fifteen
thousand persons dependent and has
been receiving help from tue interior as
FAR back as Hillsboro, thirty.live miles.
The village of Rural with two hundred
and Gfty inhabitants, has one hundred
destitute. Eight families ale sheltered
in a church and thirty-ive persons are
in Il small school house.

The two-year old boy of a Johns
town brewer named Lawrence Kost,
wandered into his fathers brewery the
other day while the family were at din
ner and no one present, and fell into a
tub containing about seven and half
barrels of boiling hot liquid. He was
not discovered by his father for fully fif-
teen minutes after the occurrence and
it was with the greatest difficulty that
the body was removed without the
flesh dropping from the bones so thor
oughly cooked was it. Deputy Collect.
or Campbell was notified of the occur
renee and the contents of the tub were
drained off by him.

gress declares the grant forfeited the
constitutionality of the act must be
decided by the Supreme Court. The
gentlemen who are supposed to be
prominent in the movement to take
these worthless" lands from the Tex

of simply seeking political capital.
The writer says: These men see in

to catch the ears of the groundlings-
of those who are opposed to anything

WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb, Is 1884.
Most of the opposition to Mr.. Nor
rison's tariff bill thus far is evidently
of the kind that would find any poss-
ible bill for the reduction of the tariff
"grotesque," "chaptrap," 'inharmo-
NOUS, "a bungle," /" foolometeo, "etc.,
as the divorced Mr.. Porter calls it in
an Incorporate letter to the Philadel-
phia Press. But it must not be for.
gotten that back of the few highly
protected manufacturers whom Mr..
Porter represents is the great mass of
the American people, demanding re-
duction of taxation, and that in the
Treasury great surplus is banking
itself up at the rate of almost hun
dred millions, year. Congress should
calmly proceed with the reduction of
taxes according to it's best wisdom,
without much regard to the violent
outcry of small class of interested
rich men, which is like that of few
crickets in field.
Somebody who signs himself ''T.
F." is sending bundles of printed cir
culars to Senators,in which objections
are made to the forfeiture of the Tex
as Pacific land grant. 1t gives the
usual arguments which were made by
the attorneys of the Texas Pacific be-
fore the House Committee on Public
Lands, and adds the new and aston
ishing argument that the land is
worthless. The circular recites that
''if the United States were. given all
these lands for nothing to actual set
tiers, it is doubtful whether anybody
could be found with temerity enough
to accept them" Notwithstanding
the worthlessness of these lahds, this
advocate of the railroad insists that the
road must have them, and reiterates
G.. p. Huntington's threat that il Con.

A Railroad Track Ruined.

WHEELING, Feb. 15.-The greatest
financial loss is that of the Ohio River
railroad. For hundred miles the track
and road bed has almost entirely disap,
peared and the bridges haye all been
swept away. At Moundsville about
twenty families have been rendered
homeless and entirely destitute, but the
wealthy people OF the town have refused
to accept aid and are doing everything
possible TO alleviate the suffering. At
Bernwood, go persons, three fourths of
the entire population, are in absolute
want.

Dead in q Dentists Chair.

SCRANTON, Feb. Mis-. James
Stevenson, of the Providence section
of the city, died to-day i'll "A dentist S
chair at the office of w. II. IIeist, after
she had three doses of chloroform and
ether administered during the pulling
of fifteen teeth. The anaeSthetic was
given by her family physician, DR.. a.
Strang. After the first dose Dentist
IIeiSt pulled two teeth; then another
dose was given and nine teeth were eX-
tracted; then third dose was given,
after which five teeth were taken out.
The startled dentist then realized that
he was pulling the teeth of a dead wo-
man. Mrs Stevenson died shortly at
ter. receiving the third dose. She leaves
seven children, the youngest of whom
is only four months old. Cororer
Dean is holding the inquest. which will
continued to morrow.
Two BOLD SWINDLERs.-The other
morning at O'Clock, us the Philadel-
phia and Erie passenger train was a.
bout starting west from Harrisburg, a
bold and successful swindling dodge
was played upon an old gentleman, Il
citizen of Erie. who was on his way
home. Two men came boiling into the
train and one of them called ont, "Is
there any one on this train going
through to Erie?" The old gentleman
referred to reply that he was bound for
Erie, ,whereupon the first speaker stated
that he had a car of horses on the train
but that the freight agent would not al
low them to go through until the re-
mainder of the freight, which was short
$40, was paid. He referred to the man
who had come with him, as the freight
agent, and the latter affirmed the state
ment of the alleged householder. He
represented that he was going through
with the horses ,andSthat he had writ
ten security which he would give any
one furnishing the money asked for the
ulttll SeCuieu lhc llloullJ Hdlneu llOtn
the old gentleman of Erie, and placed
in the hands of the latter the document
which he had previously shown. After
getting the money the horse dealer and
the freight agent pa ssed forward to the
front part of the train to look after the
horses. When it became light enough
to examine it thoroughly the benevo-
lent Erie man discovered that the pa
per given him was sight draft on the
First national bank Of Texas for $40,
600. Long before this time the
swindlers had skipped off the train and
disappeared. 1t need not be stated that
there were no horses on the train and
that both the men who worked the
horse dodge we're swindlers.
