DEDICATION OF CHESTNUT STREET vEsTRy.
Yesterday was happy and eventful day
for the Chestnut street M. E. Society. 1t
undoubtedly marked the beginning of
great era of prosperity, for then occurred
the dedication of the model and comnodiOus
Sunday school home, where hereafter will
weekly gather more than half thousand
for the study of the Bible. Momentous was
the occasion, this turning of another mile
stone in such long and glorious record, and
large was the attendance. Much enthusiasm
prevails among the scholars; it seems GER.
tain that this school, always a power for
good In the city, will hereafter exert wider
aud a stronger influence than ever before
npon the young people of Portland. The
ambition of the officers is now to have a
membership of 1000. That that goal will
soon be reached there seems little doubt, for
yesterday there gathered in the pleasant
quarters 633 people. the largest attendance
recorded in the history of the school, The
time was largely given to appropriate dedi-
catory exercises, the most interesting feature
being the remarks of ex-superintendents
By the records, twenty-five different men
have had the leadership of the school in
times past down to the present efficient SUI
perintendent. Mr.. e. S. Everett. Eleven of
these are now living, and six of them were
present yesterday. Mr.. S. r. Leavitt dates
his connection with the school back to 1884.
His words of congratulation were touching.
Following him, remarks of felicitation were
made by Messrs. A. NJ Smith, Jos. A.
Locke, j. B. Donnell, George Fl. Lord, f. b.
Clark, and the pastor. Rev. N. t. Whitaker.
Mrs. John Yeaton, who was one of the
founders of the school in 1922, was present
Important among the exercises was the read
ing of the following admirable stanzas,
written specially for the occasion by Mr..
George B. Griffith:
The ready purse, the willing feet,
The skillfu hand, have done their part
Ana 10! 1t stands, fair, chaste, completed!
While throbs with Joy each grateful heart.
Thy watchful eye has seen it all;
Ihine ear hast heard in courts above,
The chisel move, the mallet fall,
The plan fulfilled In Christian love.
The wish expressed to Thee alone
All. all are objects of Thy care,
And Thou hast answered from Thy throne
Behold The edifce is done!
Within these sacred walls we stand;
They glitter in the winters SUM-
And all is fair on either hand!
Our homage first, o, God, to Thee,
We render on this happy days
Accept our praise, on Bonded knee;
Each worldly thought We thrust away.
Q, come again. with mighty power,
And NIL this c0nsecrated place,
And may each heart from this glad hour.
Have more of holy love and grace!
On pastor. leader teacher, shed
New light to guide from glory given,
The smallest child, the hOary head,
Bless on their way from earth to heaven!
Our faith, our love, our hopes, increase,
Win ampler room eni Arge desire;
Hand touching hand in perfect peace,
Eacn heart for God living fire!

AN AFTERNOON CLOUD BURST WHICH
DOES GREAT DAMAGE TO STREETS.
JACKSON VILE. Fla, Sept. %
Rain began to fall here before dawn
and has continued without cessation
all day. the air at times being almost
white with sheets of rain, much re-
sembling a snow squall. During the
afternoon the storm was accompanied
With sharp electrical shocks OF an in
tenslty never before experienced In
this part of the State. A few minutes
before 5 O'Clock a small black cloud
was seen rolling rapidly toward the
city from the southwest, through which
lightning played at intervals, giving
it y decidedly greenish color. Its
velocity increased as 1t approached
the zenith, and the wind became al
most a hurricane. Suddenly the cloud
burst, and a perfect deluge Of water
descended upon the city, its volume
being greatest in the territory bounded
by Newman, Forsyth and Laurel
streets and the st Johns River. The
cloud was then partially disptlled, and
disappeared toward the northeast. In
less than ten minutes the streets In the
locality indicated were flooded with
water, the sewer and surface drains
being wholly inadequate to the task OF
carrying it of. The pavement is OF
circular cypress blocks, and tie water,
forcing its way beneath them, made
the surface Of the streets undulate like
the waves of the cea Teams and
pedestrians broke through, and
the water spurted up into the air with
great force. Surface streams ran down
Pine, Ocean and Hogan streets like a
mill race, washing the paving blocks
up into piles, and, in some Instances,
carrying them down nearly to the
xharves. Bay street., from Pine to
Market, Is a mass Of disiodged paving
blocks, and is impossible. The police
and lremsn have roped it off TO pre-
vent accident. Street Car travel on
Bay street is suspended. Many stores
were Hooded. unpaved thoroughfares
have been quilted out in some places SO
as to be temporarily impossible. The
damage will reach several thousand
dollars.

States Signal Station, reports the rain
fall the greatest on record here for a
like duration. Upto noon it had

1t had increased TO At inches The
only record approaching it Is that OF
September 20. 1885. when, from the
previous midnight toll O'Clock N.
-23 hours-<the rainfall amounted to
6 l-I5 inches on y level. To-day's
however, is much IN excess of
that. Men will be set TO work early in
the morning, aud travel will probably
be resumed during the day.
