him and the private body guard. A hand
some cluster Of roses came to the cottage
this morning to be placed near the dead
General. They will be replaced BY lilies
tomorrow. and by other and fresh flowers

A Disastrous and Fatal ~CIOudbarst.
DENVER, COL, July 27.-A Tribune
Republicans Colorado Springs special
says: One Of the most disastrous cloud
bursts ever known in this section of the
State struck a few miles north OF this city
last midnight. But for the fact that the
storm struck the crest OF a hill, where the
water flowed in opposite directions, the
loss Of life must have been appalling.
Several railroad and wagon bridges in the
vicinity were carried away and q large
amount of track was swept out. The
house OF B. A. Fl. Eaton, Superintendent
of Schools, in the northern part OF the
city. was lifted from its foundation and
carried down the stream with great veloo-

and Mrs. Eaton, who had just retired for
the night. AS soon as the former realized
the situation he jumped from the door of
the floating dwelling. instructing his wife
to do the same. After a hard struggle he
succeeded in reaching q place of safety.
Instead Of jumping his wife chung to the
house, which struck the Denver and New
Orleans railroad bridge, 100 yards below.
and was dashed to pieces. Diligent search
failed to discover any trace Of Mrs. Eason's
body. Several families living further up
the creek barely escaped with their lives.
Later reports from Luckless Valley, north
of town, indicate devastation and loss OF
life greater than was ct first supposed. On
the slopes OF Shocks Run were q number
of Summer campers. Many of their tents
have been seen floating in the stream, and
as the food came down at the dead Of
night il is feared many have persisted.
One body, that Of a Swede woman, is re-
ported found several miles below the town.
The news from Shocks Run are awaited
with intense anxiety.
A Festive Cowboy I'm Chicago.
CHICAGO. July 27.-Policeman Peter
Soorgel, while walking down State street
in the neighborhood Of the levee to-day,
heard the report of q pistol and instantly
felt q singing sensation 10 his back.
Turning he saw q small man in q white
SLOUGH hat standing at . little distance
with q leveled revolver in his hand. The
policeman drew his own weapon, and as he
advanced he returned the shots rapidly
fred at him by the small man, who re-
treated as he fred. When the ammuni-
tion of both had been exhausted without
any apparent result the men clinched, and
with the aid Of several bystanders the as
sailant was brought to the ground. He
was then recognized as Q cowboy from
Kansas, who had been recently arrested
for firing his weapon in the street, and was
thirsting for revenge. Three OF the shots
inflicted flesh wounds in Soorgel's body.
Chfcsgo's Socialists and Anarchists
CHICAGO, July 27.-The Socialists and
Anarchists Of this city held their annual
picnic to-day at Ogden's Grove. The
affair was conducted under the auspices Of
the International Working Peoples Asso-
citation. and its most noticeable feature
was the parade to the picnic grounds, in
which some 5000 persons, representing
half . dozen different societies, took part.
Numerous banners and transparencies
were carried. One of the former was large
and flaming red. and was borne by the
wives OF four of the principal local Social
istic agitators. On one transparency was
che inscription. 1--WE mourn not so much
General Grant as the little child who was
starved to death yesterday" Several
fiery dynamiters essayed TO speak at the
grounds. but the influence Of the green
grass and trees robbed them Of an an.
dience.
