swept with mig atty tidal wave. The
loss to property is fearful, while the
sacrifice of human life is, under the
circumstances, appalling. So swift and
terrible was the visitation and without
warning. that people were awakened

waves, Strange to relate. few people
were conscious o. the horrible disaster
till they awoke to look upon desolate
scenes this morning and drag the
DRowNED FROM THE DRIFTS
The storm struck town about II
O'Clock last night from northwesterly
direction. TWAS accompanied by stiff.
cool winds, though not strong enough
to produce any damage. The rain fell
in torrents, until l O. clock, without in
PERMISSION or cessation. Indeed, those
who were up and witnessed the awful
scene, describe it as one never before
seen by them. Vivid flashes of lightning
displayed as if they were great sheets OF
falling water. At the close OF the
storm great and OMNIBUS sounds, min.
gled with the shouts OF the people and
cries of distress went up from the val
ley and such citizens as were in the vi
cinity of the creek and ravine went
forth to render assistance. The food
on Central Avenue, the principal thor
oughfare, assumes the appearance of an
angry river whose rushing tides swept
everything movable on it's bosom. For
oyer half an hour the Avenue was
TRANSFORMED INTO A TORRENT,
Fifty yards wide. Boxes and parts OF
houses came down On the tide and were
| left strewn on the sidewalks. Several
large hotels were flooded to the depth
| OF four feet, with murkey waters.
Many buildings we're totally wrecked.
| Up to this hour six persons are known to
be missing. five of whom have been
found IN the wrecked buildings. The
damage to property is estimated at
500 ,000.
THIRTEEN DROWNED.
George w. Brown, Of Lancaster,
Penn. and 9. n. Coolidge, of Cincin-
natl, visitors, have just arrived here
from Hot Springs, and say that the dis
aster Is beyond description. They re-
port thirteen people drowned. Nine
bodies have been recovered, and in
quests have been held on four. The
last are mostly colored people. Owing

could not learn the names OF those

done. The telegraph wires are closed

the wretched imposter Naundorff, who claims to

LONDON, Jan. 1.-THE Times, in publishing the
last OF series OF letters descriptive OF parts the
United States, goes into ecstacies over the indefa-
tigable and inexhaustible elasticity OF the Amerl-
can character. The time was when that paper
had no such high opinion OF what It was pleased 10
call 'the Yankees" Now its admiration for Ameri-
cans, and more particularly New Englanders, mas
hardly any bounds II even says that America
though she has plenty still TO learn from Europe,
can teach Europe some things such an admis-
sion from such quarter is indeed remarkable IL
goes on 10 say that few foreigners yet understand
the reason OF Americas growth. This Is true, and
no paper in England has shown more need OF en-
nghtenment tnan the Times which represents
that class by whom free institutions are viewed
with profound distrust n spite OF the teachings

LONDON, Jan IA learn, on the highest
authority that Gladstone himself says there Is no
truth In the statement so confidently made OF his
going TO Rome. He never had any intention OF so
doing. In any case, IL he had decided to visit the
italian capital II Is inconceivable that such visit
Is to have any political object Gladstone is
OF the support OF a vast majority OF the Irish
people, with or without the support OF the pope,
and certainly IL could not improve his position
with the ardent Protestant electors OF Ulster. who
as shown on the electoral records, are rapidly
coming over 70 his views n he appeared willing
make the slightest concessions to Rome. The
author OF "NatlcanSm" would not be a very
acceptable guest at the vatican. Moreover. Glad
stones sympathies In the recent renewal OF the
dispute between the vatican and the Quirinal are
entirely with King Humbert. Gladstone says the
reports or his conversation on the Irish question
PARIS are wholly apocryphal This however, was
quite clear 10 all acquainted with the subject
since the interview represented Gladstone as
making plumbers In matters In which he is better
verSed than any III IN living.
