COLUMBIA, s. C., May 22.-On Wednesday
night the heaviest rain fall for years occurred
here. and was general throughout the State.
Streams are swollen to an extent unknown
since the flood Of 1852. Great damage has
been done to crops in the river bottoms, and
loss of live stock must be heavy The HOOD
broke the check dam at the head of the canal
work on which was in progress: and the swift
current being intercepted by ledge or rock
shot Off against the cmbankment, cutting 1t
away in several places.
On an island, about 200 yards from the ledge
and forming n part of the elnhank lncnt, were
located the city water works and reservoir,
which were obliterated by the torrent. Trains
on all roads were blockadcd by the waSlnuts,
and on the Columbia and Grcenville road ana
branches several trains arc caught out ana
unable to 90 either way on account OF trestlrS
being down. The fine bridge over the Broad
away river Is down.
The trestlc on the east bank Of the Congarccc
river near here went away this morning and
trains from Augusta, due here at noon, did
not cross till 5 p. m. The train due from Char-
lesion ut 10 a. ln. is still out. There is no trle-
graphic communication with the up country.
The wire along the Greenville road is under
water. The weather Is threatening and more
rain is expected.

THE WATERS FALLING.
The waters are now falling slowly, but 1t Is
feared by some that Yesterdays rains Will
cause another rise. All the crops are now
ruined. SO the farmers have no fear of another
rise. rs it could not possibly do them any
harm.

YALE COLLEGE
Prof Timothy Dwight of the Divinity
School Elected President.

NEW HAVEN, Conn, May 20.-At the an
nual meeting of the Corporation of Yale Col
lege today, President Porters formal letter
of resignation was read After an express
sion Of regret by the various members, a
committee was appointed to draft suitable
resolutions of regret and report at the June
meeting. Nominations for the presidency
were then made. The meeting was secret,
but it is understood the candidates were
Prof. Timothy Dwight, Prof. Francis A.
Walker of the Bostou Institute of Technolo-
gy, President Gilman of Johns Hopkins Uni
Versity, and Prof Brush, director of Yale
Scientific School. A number of ballots were
taken without result, but on the final ballot
Prof Timothy Dwight, Professor of Sacred
Literature in the Yale Divinity School, was
unanimously elected.
President Porter, in his letter of resigna-
ton, gives as his reason for resignation his
extreme age which he says must soon have
disqualified him for some of the duties of
his office. He proposes, however, to retain
the professOrship of moral philosophy and
metaphysics, to which he was elected in 1916.
A committee appointed to wait on Professor
Dwight reported that he would accept the
office of president. The Corporation then
voted to create new professorship of Sc
mitic Languages, and chose Prof. William r.
Harper of Morgan Park Theological Semina-
ry OF Chicago to that chair. Rev. George B.
Stevens, d. D., graduate of the Yale Diyin-
ity School in 1880, and now pastor of the
Presbyterian church at Watertown, N. Y,
was appointed Professor OF Sacred Litera-
ture to fill the chair now held by Prof
Dwight Prof. Dwight appeared before the
Corporation, and formally accepted the Office
Of president on condition that he be relieved
of several minor duties connected with the
office, and be granted vacation of six

The Sun and the Earth.


The volume of the sun is about 1,330,000
times that of the earth. To give some idea
of this difference let us make few compari-
sons of familiar objects. For instance, let
the sun be represented by man weighing
100 lbs There are 1000 grains in pound
avoirdupois, and this multiplied into 100
gives us 1,3S0,fiO0. Now grain may be rep
resented by the kernel of wheat; which was
in fact the original of the grain weight So
you have on the one hand the sun, represent
ed by large man, and on the other the
earth, by grain of wheat. If the sun were
vain Of his complexion he might wear little
black patch ON his chin little larger, per-
haps than the earth. Or the earth might be
a very small house fly, sitting on his bald
pate. The earth would not be half large
enough to make the sun collar-button. A
man may gain in weight under some circum-
stances three to five pounds week. Should
the sun take notion to increase his weight
in like ratio, it would take a hundred such
bodies as our earth to supply him break
fast. The earth would be small a morsel for
the sun he could scarcely taste it. If he
were taking medicine the earth, sugar rcoat-
ed, would be only very small pill. Take
pumpkin and put mustard seed beside it,
or an apple and prick it with needle-point,
and you will have further Illustrations of
what those figures mean. And yet we think
we live on a great, big werld!

ALudicrous Labor trouble.

One of the funniest strikes on record is re-
ported from Brooklin, Maine The Brook
lin Canning Company in that town made
large catches of small herring last week, and
were doing a thriving business, putting up
"sardines." A part of this work is perform
ed by children, many Of whom are not more
than 9 or 10 years Of age. On one of the
busiest days of last week. the children
worked well during all the forenoon, but the
herring were small, and it took good many
of them to fill box, and as they are paid by
the box for their services their work. no
doubt, seemed rather discouraging Noon
came and the children were sent home to
dinner. One o'clock came, and the whistle
blew the signal for returning to work, but
no children appeared in answer to it. The
managers were perplexed, but they waited
with as much patience as they could COM
mand, but still no children came. At length
it became apparent that the Brooklin Can
ming Company was the victim of a labor
trouble. The proprietors began to look
about them. Children were seen off in boats
peeking around corners, and hiding behind
barrels or other objects, but no demand was
made for higher pay. AT length the propri-
tors caused proclamation to be made that il
the children would come back and 20 to
work liberal increase would be made in
their wages. The strikers, male and female
promptly returned to their several tasks. the
wheels of business began to reVolve and
have run ever since without lar or friction
The children work with win, their faces
all aglow with happiness; at ''ten cents n
box" they are on the road to wealth

The Montgomery Guards.

The drill and ball of the Portland Mont
gomery Guards at City Hall, last evening,
was a complete success. The attendance
was large, and all seemed to be enjoying
themselves. The first part of the programme
consisted of an hour of Prof. Grimmer's
music. The selections were Of course rem
dered in manner quite beyond criticism.
The overture, Sunrise" was one of those
exquisite compositions whose beauty con-
sists in the reproduction in musical numbers
of one of natures beautiful scenes. The
accomplishment of the Xylophone solo by
Mr.. G. Jones was received with abundant
applause, and was deserving of praise.
The next part of the entertainment, the
exhibition and prize drill were the features
of the evening. The movements in double
and in single rank and the manual, both si-
lent and by command, were given with care
full attention to their many difficult maneu-
vres in fact the boys did themselves proud
There was scarcely an error from beginning
to end, the time was kept almost perfectly,
and the audience was continually showing
its appreciation by hearty applause. The
prize drill was participated in by five MEM
bers of the company and the prizes consisting
of medals given by Bishop Healy were
awarded to Messrs. David A. Donovan and
Patrick A. Sullivan respectively. The judges
were Col. John J. Lynch, Capt Eastman Of
the Portland Cadets, and Capt Norton Of
the Infantry. Their decision called forth
much demonstration from those present,
showing their hearty acquiescence in the
choice.
This was followed by the grand march, in
which one hundred and seventy-fve couples
took part. An excellent order of fourteen
dances kept the dancers moving till late
hour. The committee having the affair in
charge were as follows:
