Darkness, Death and Desolation

Columbus, o., May ia Xenia, Ohio,
special 10 the Springfield Eyeaing Gazstse,
which has just been. received, says there
was terrible wind and rain storm at In
o'clock last night with a wonderful cleo
trical display. Water backed up at the
east end OF town to lake against the
Pan Handle railway. The bank gave way
suddenly and the food came dashing
through town along Shawnee creek IN
waves fifteen or twenty feet high and swept
twenty or thirty houses away and did
100000 worth OF damage. The g,s works
are flooded and the town is in darkness
and terror.
The cries OF the people in the flooded
district were awful to hear MANY acts of
herOism in saving the drowning are report
ed. BoDhrss were lighted and the people
worked all night. T-enty bodies were re-
covered and there is still number miss
ing. Whole families persisted in the food
ed district.
There was great damage to property all
around in the country, and the extent of
the damage cannot now even be approx
mated.
The following is
LIST OF THE DEAD:
Mrs. y lie Anderson and sister, Mrs. Casey,
widow; Mrs. Samuel Cochrane and two
sons, Matt Evans, wife and child, Orrin
Morris, wife and five children, Stephen

Damage at DAYTON.

Columbus, o., Nav IA Dayton, o..
special says the storm last night resulted
In considerable damage. The rain fall
filled both the Miami rivers bank full.
The drainage OF the city led the water to
the main street, where the business blocks
occupy all tie ground. The thoroughfare
became a river and flooded all the store
cellars, destroying the goods. Arnold &
creek leyee broke, flooding the vest side
and undermining the structures, turning
families ont of small tenements. Patrol
system carried women and children out
OF danger. The 3 g Miami rose nine feet
between 9 p. m. and midnight, which indi-
Gates great loss to farmers and gardeners
in the valleys The railway bridges and
culverts were washed out and telegraph
communication shut off from DAYTON.
Trains are all behind. Several hundred
people are detained in the city. The wash
out on the Bee Line, four miles south of
DaI ton, took away 200 feet of embank-
ment and delayed the night express to
New York and will delay the running of
trains Ter twenty-fOur hours. Like wash
outs are reported on every road running
out of DAYTON. This morning no trains
arrived. Ali kind of eztravagant rumOrs
are atlOat. Senator Kemp left for DAYTON
on receipt of the news that his home had
been washed away and his family could
not be found. This Is uneonfrmed. Re
ports from Springfield announce SINH ar
destruction by lightning and flood. A
portion OF two trains was derailed bat no
loss OF life. The found atoms of several
buildings were washed out allowing them
to tumble down. Several houses in the
city and country were burned from being
struck by lightning.

The Baltimore Sun demo.

lands poodle dog, holds supreme
sway at the White House. One OF
the oolored attendants, whose service
the people pay for, is detailed to at.
tend this poodle at home aud in his
strolls about the grounds. His food
is bread, butter and choicest meats
with small cakes for dessert" This
surprises nobody who has carefully
watched the Administration. But
how many poor people of the capital
would be glad to get the scraps which
the "First Dog of the Land" deems
not good enough for a poodle! Oh,
shoddyl shoddy!
