WILD SCENE ON THE LINE OF THE PHILA
pELPHIA AND READING RAILROAD.

One of the most terrific cloud-bursts ever
seen in PennsyIvaniz broke about the ears of
the workers in the harvest fields in Upper
Berks and Lower Schuylkill, between the
hours of three and four O'Clock Friday after
noon, uprootibg trees, unroofng barns and
sheds and carrying destruction to standing
crops. The heat prior TO the storm had been
intense. Not a breeze was felt, nor was
there any sign of an approaching storm.
Passengers on the through express train on
the Philadelphia and Reading railroad, say
that when the train was between New King
gold and Hamburg single binding flash of
| lightning IN the southeastern sky was followed
| by the sound of rolling thunder. Then the
rain fell, not 10 drops, but in literal torrents.
| Ii was fearful storm. Against it the speed
of the engine visibly slackeDed every moment.
| In ten minutes after the first raindrops had
| fallen the ordinary streams which flow under
the railway track at various places were
| swelled into rushing torrents that filled their
beds to overlooking and sought channels on
the railway and the roads. A stop was made
at Port Clinton and the advisability of wait
ing for q cessation of the rain was discussed,
but Conductor Messimer gave the signal to
start and the train began to move again.
Before quarter mile had been passed the
train stopped and it was ascertaned that the
water had in some way affected the working
of the air brakes. This was remedied and
another start was made. but the descending
rain fell in such streams that the engineer
could not see. Three times between Ham
burg and Port Clinton stops were made, the
last two because of wash-outs on the road.
At one place the inner track was covered by
Q stream twelve or fifteen feet vide and from
one to two feet deep The train was itself
pulling slowly through three inches of water
on the other track, the storm having subsidized
by this time. About mile above Hamburg
the biggest break was discovered and halt the
passengers alighted to watch the train hands
repair the damage. Many walked to Ham,
burg, as the rain by that time had ceased.
The scene along the line of the road baf-
fies description. Entire fields of corn had
been beaten down by the fury of the gale and
lay in tangled confusion on the ground.
Branches had been broken from the trees and
the ground beneath was covered with unripe
fruit. Here and there heaps of driftwood lay
piled up across the railroad track and these
had to be removed before the train could go
on. Barn doors were unhinged, sheds I'M
rooted and at least half 4 dozen corn cribs
entirely submerged, their contents having
previously been swept away. Below Ham,
burg the damage was very much less, though
the swollen streams had burst their bonds 81
several places and wrought considerable de-
struction.

Some facts which the civil service sup
porters of President Cleveland may find
hard of digestion are given in letter
written by a prominent republican of
Mississippi and quoted in the Washington
dispatches to the Tribune. Not only has
the South been heavily drawn on to fill
Federal appointments in Western States
and Territories. but in county after coun-
ty in Mississippi and elsewhere every re-
publican postmaster or other official-and
the number was not large-has been re-
placed by democrat. In the North re-
movals are made slowly and with caution.
but in the South the official axe has been
kept steadily at work until there is no
more work to do The solid South may
be counted upon as solid for Cleveland
every time.

Anti-Saloon Delegates.

The delegation selected By the republi-
can State Committee, at its meeting at
Bangor, Monday evening, to attend the
anti-saloon convention to be held in Chi
cago, is composed of some of the first citi-
zens of the State and prominent workers
in the temperance cause. These men can
be trusted to give good report of them
selves at the great convention. Many OF
them were active in the temperance cause
when the first prohibitory law of the State
was enacted, and have been the consistent
and unwayering advocates Of prohibition
down to the present time. Ex-Governor An
son p. Morrill,, who leads the list. was the
first real Maine law Governor the State
had. More than eighty years have passed
over his head, but they have not abated
one lot or little his interest in the temper
ance cause.
The selection OF such delegation signi-
fies that the republican party OF Maine is
in earnest against liquor saloons, and will
support the movement with all its strength.
Other States which have selected delegates
have chosen men of similar character, but
none standing higher as temperance men
than the mem ers of the Maine delegation.

THE number of immigrants arriving
at Castle Garden is unusually large,
and this Superintendent Jackson re.
CARDS as a good indication. He says
that the increase or decrease of ar
rivals is an unfailing barometer Of
prosperity or depression. The effect
may not be at once appreciable through
out the country in anything like bust
ness boom, but the volume of immigra-
ton is nevertheless governed by the
receptive conditions existing here. In
other words, immigration Is governed,
more or less, by the law Of supply and
demand.
