One of the large ropes used in hauling brick up to the workmen on the Platt building on East Main street broke with a load yesterday afternoon spilling bricks with such crash that the merchants on the street thought that the whole building was coming down. Some workmen on the ground floor had narrow escape from being injured.

 Heavy Rainfall.

Much Damage Caused by Yesterday $
 Heavy Rainfall
 Last nights storm, if the appearance of the Naugatuck river goes for anything, must have been very devastating up ithe valley. Locally the storm was heavy and over an inch of rain fell. Every brook and small stream was filled to overflowing, and the damage to open sewer trenches, particularly to the new Washington street sewer was great. In many places the roads were we'll washed and the sewer basins filled with the earth Early this morning the Naugatuck river commenced to rise and at noon was six feet above the medium mark. The workmen at the sewer outlet below Washington bridge were flooded out and the water covered everything to a depth of three or four feet. A large hole was sunk in Burnham street near the bridge, making it dangerous for horses. In the afternoon the water commenced to recede, but the river is still higher than it has been seen for many months.

Judge Palmer has written letter-a
letter iram which this especial extract
is made:
He Pettigrow did say he opposed me
because was an officeholder, which
may be a good reason, but the question
is not go much does man hold Office,
as it is how he has performed its duties.
My Official duties never led me in the
direction of the surveyor generals
office, consequently / never secured q
government suryeyipg contract, and
never had the opportunity to establish
the land lines through central Dakota
while never leaving the shade OF the
trees on the shores OF Big Stone lake,
as the records OF cases now in the su-
preme court disclose was done by some
gentlemen who now raise hands in holy
horror toward government officials.
After the letter had been sent out Of
the hands Of the writer and was in q
position to become the property OF the
public it was discovered that the sur
yeyor who performed this crooked work
was not Surveyor Pettigrew, but some
other surveyor. So his epistol-
ary labor was all thrown
away, the actual surveyor being
dead. There is one other letter tina,
Judge Palmer wrote that would make
good reading, and possibly Mr.. Petit
grew has copy of 1t. Itwas addressed
to one of the officers Of the DEVILS Lake
land Office and its alleged design was Il
influence a decision in land contest il
which Palmer was interested.

The Dakota matter has been made, a
national question of political import and
will be discussed as campaign issue by
the orators of both parties. The sen-
stors are now loading themselves with
fresh speeches and this week is to be
devoted largely to the subject of Da-
kota in the national forum. Butler
and Turpie will offer more evidence
against us and Vest will come in for o
share OF the talk. On the republican
side Spooner and Edmunds will have
something to say. Dakota, being the
bone of contention, is expected to lie
quietly until after the presidential cleo
tion and content itself with its oppor-
tunity to furnish campaign thunder.

the other day that he was in no way in

FRENCH GALLEY SLAVES.
How They Were at One Time Abused
by Cruel TaskmaSterS.

The life of the French galley slaves of the
seventeenth and eighteenth centuries has been
thus described by Admiral de la Graviere: They
place seven men on each bench-that is to say, in
a space ten feet long by four feet wide. They
so packed away that you can see nothing from
stern to bow but the heads of sailors. The cap
tain and the officers are not much better off.
When the overtake the galleys, when the
north wind hOwls along the coast. or when the
sirocco dampens the passengers with its deadly
moisture, all these make the galley uncomfortable.
The lamentations of the, ships company, the
shrieks of the lors the horr BILE howlngs of the
convicts. the groanngs of the timbers mixed
with the changing of the chains and the natural
noises of the storm, produce an effect that will
terrfy the bravest of men. Even the calm has
it's inconvenience. The horrid smells pow
erful that you cannot withstand them. despite
the fact that you tobacco in some shape from
morning till night
Condemned in l7O1 to in the galleys of
France account of being Protestant, Jean
Martelle de Bugerac died in III, at Galenburg
on the Gueldre, at the age of ninety-five He says
"All convicts are chained to a bench; these
benches are four feet apart and covered with a
bag stuffed with wool which is thrown a sheep
skin. The overseer, who is master of the slaves,
remains aft. near the captain to receive orders.
There two sub-overseers-one amidship. the
other tie bow. Each one of them is armed
with whip, which he exercises the naked
bodies of the crew. When the captain orders the
boat off the Overseer gives signal from silver
whistle which hangs from his neck This is re-
peated by the two others, and at once the slaves
strike the water. One would say the fifty oars
were but one. Imagine six men chained to a
bench, naked as they were born, one foot on the
