THE MISSOURI FLOOD

SIOUX CITY, April 6.-The flood on the
Missouri Immediately above Sioux City
has been the highest and most disastrous
since the memorable inundation of the
spring of 1881. The region inundated is
low grounds on the Dakota side above
Sioux river. In every direction for miles
the whole country is under water. Elk
Point is a diminutive island in vast sea
of angry waters. The country is thickly
settled and many farmers had already
moved their stock to the bluffs. A vast
river several miles wide is sweeping across
the lowlands. A mile and quarter of
track, including railroad ties and iron, has
been carried two miles away from the road
bed and left in the fields. The Sioux river
is swollen by food waters of the Missouri.
A great mass of drift wood lies against the
railroad bridge. The pressure was suffi-
cient to move the bridge three feet and
would have swept the structure entirely
away but for the precautions taken by the
railroad company to save the bridge.

NEW YORK, April 6-The central COM
mittee of the United German Democrats
of New York city, consisting of one dele
gate from each election district, met to-
night to reorganize preparatory to the
coming campaign. The platform demands

treasury; an excise law to legitamize the
liquor traffic; and protection against police
chanery; the opening of sa
looms on Sunday afternoons and

corporations and prevention of stock
watering; abolition of trusts and legal rec
ognition of workingmen's unions. Reso-

Faults of the fashionable Waist.

To begin with, the waist is not circle al
all, but an oval; nor can there be any greater
error than to imagine that an unnaturally
small waist gives an air Of grace, or even of
sli.ltaess. to the whole figure. Its effect, as
rule, is to simply e1aggerate the width of
the shoulders and the hips; and those whose
figures possess that ststeliness, which is
called stoutness by the vulgar, convert what
is : quality into u defect by yielding to the
silly edicts of fashion on .hs subject of tight
lacing. The fashionable English waist, also,
is not merely far too small. and consequently
quite out of proportion to tbs rest Of the
figure, but i: is worn far too low down. use
the expression ''worn'' advisedly, for a waist
nowadays seems to be regarded as an article
Of apparel to be put on when and where one
likes. A long waist always implies shortness
of the lower limbs, and from the artistic
point Of view has the effect OF diminishing
the height; and I am glad TO see that many
of the most charming women in Paris are re-
turning to the idea of the directoire style Of
dress. This style is not by any means per-
feet, but at least it has the merit of uflicat-
ing the proper position of the waist. Oscar
Wilde in Womaus World

ERESHEI MASON CITY. La

MASON Cry, Ia, April 6.-The greatest
freshet ever known in this country was ex-
perienced last night at Rock Falls An
iron bridge 155 feet long and the dam are
gone and damage to property there will
not fall short of 900. The village of
Rock Falls, south of the river, was COM
pletely inundated. Houses and barns
were crushed and swept away, and in
some instances no vestige remains of what
was before substantial structure. Miles
of fences were torn from land where water
was never known to reach before. When
the water receded ii left immense piles of
ice in the streets. High cakes three feet
thick are piled up on one another ten to
fifteen feet high and will be there for
weeks before they melt and make the
streets passaole 1t looks like an immense
Arctic scene with roofs of houses protrud-
ing through.

DouBlETRseEDY IN MISSISSIPPI

ABERDEEN, Miss, April 6.-Late yester-
day evening a horrible tragedy occurred
on the Davis plantation. about three miles
from this city, which will likely result in
the death of a mother and her two sons.
The facts, rs nearly as could be ascertain
ed today, show that William and Wood
son Edney, both deserving, able young
men, were talking to negro named
George Washington. The negro COM
meuced cursing William Edney, who at
tempted to resent the abuse when the
negro picked up piece of rail and struck
William over the head killing him almost
instantly. His brother Woodson ran to
his rescue and met a. similar fate When
the mother of the two boys learned of the
tragedy she tainted and did not regain con-
sciousness during the night. Great ex-
element prevailed throughout the neigh
borhood, and several parties are in pur-
suit of the murderer, who will be
treated to lynch law on short notice if
caught.

OVER THE OCEAN.
GERMANY.

BERLIN, April 6.-The National Zeitung,
referring to the proposed marriage of
Prince Alexander of Battenberg and
Princess Victoria of Prussia, says: st Is
self-evident that the proposal is bound to
be regarded as a matter affecting the
European policy of Germany, and Prince
Bismark would therefore oppose it. AS in
Germany the monarch is the supreme
leader of the state, the family connections
of the dynasty can never be without I'M
portance, and for this reason
especially the creation of dynastic
alliance must not be contemplated.
which in the present situation of Europe
would embarrasS that Germany policy for
the support of which the reichstag has
Just granted 1000 men and 3OOO00,OOO
marks. To admit only of the possibility
of a sacrifice of this kind being weakened
by personal wishes regarding this matri-
monial alliance would be to mistake the
position of our imperial house. The con-
sent Of the emperor to the alliance Will
surely be refused"
The Cologne Gazette says: political
considerations forbid in the most positive
manner an alliance between Prince Alex
ander and Princess Victoria, as tending to
an immediate disturbance of the relations
between Germany and Russia. In any
case 1t would be Impossible Tor Prince BIS
marck, in view of his attitude toward Rus
STA until now to continue to conduct affairs
with Prince Alexander to become mem
Der of the imperial family. The proposed
betrothal having during the past few days
been impaired to Prince Bismarck, the
chancellor explained his views frankly
and openly and requested permission to re-
sign in the event of the emperor's approx
ing the alliance. Until this decision has
been arrived at the crisis will continue.
1t is affirmed tonight that Emperor
Frederick insists upon the marriage of his
daughter to Prince Alexander.
