Women of Power.
Jewish Messenger.

Jewish Messenger.
Quiet women are women of power.
The noisy, clustering, arrogant, self
asserting among them make the air hot
with their voices, and trouble the world
with their Superabundant activities.
But this cannot be called strength-it is
more generally sham and a show,
which breaks down under the pressure
of personal and private trial; while the
true power of those who. as wives, in
fiuence the present, and, as mothers,
mold the future, lies hidden from the
public, all the more valuable because of
its reserve.

Taking Good Care of Her Pet.

BOSEOu AuVtIIIsEI.
1t is remarkable what an interest
some women have in their pet dogs.
and to what extent they will sometimes
90 to make their pets comfortable. A
few evenings ago the Looker-On saw a
woman on Washington street take her
sack from her back and place it over
her pet rat terrier. She wrapped it
carefully about the dog, and afterward
got on board a car which was going to
one on the outlying districts. 1t was an
open car. and She probably wanted to
secure the dog from cold.

VAN HORNE's FAT CONTRACT.
Parliament Will Be Slow to Con-

LONDON, Aug. 15.-The government
is making a great effort to secure the
confirmation by parliament of the con-
tract with the Canadian Pacific railroad
for the transfer of the mails for Hong
Kong. which it is proposed to send by
way of Halifax. The proposal has de-
veloped great opposition on the part of
the many interests affected, and it is
doubtful if the government will succeed
in securing the necessary approval of
parliament before the adjournment.
The contract also provides for the trans
fer of troops between Halifax and Hong
Kong and intermediate points.

city, but it will take months of work to
come anywhere near repairing the fearful
damage, while it is about certain that the
list of the lost will never be made complete.
The supply of collins sent in from Pitts
burg and other points is so grea that the
relic commi, tee photographed last evening
rot to send any more until ordered. No
funds have yet Teen received from Phila-
delphia, but the authorities are confident
that when te!egraphic communication is
restored they will get liberal communica-
tions from that city. Dozens of smaller
places have already sent in generous sums
of money, and the people are encouraged
to believe that all of their more pressing
wants will be provided for.
1t will require several Gays yet to give
of life, but it will &c, tainly reach up into
thousands. Every hour brings fresh evil
dence of the fact that the disaster eclipses
anything of the kind in the history of
the country, and no one can say what
the final result will be.
1t is impossible to describe the appear
ance of Main street. Whole houses have

mud, ornamented here and there with
heaps of driftwood, remained for their con-
temptation 1t is perfe tly safe to say that
every house in the city that was not located
well up ON the hillside was either swept
completely away or wrecked SO badly that
rebuilding will be absolutely necessary.
These losses, however, were as nothing
compared to the frightful sacrifice OF
human lives to be seen on every hand.
The loss of life is simply dreadful. The
most conservative people declare that the
number will reach 5000. The streets are
full of men carrying bodies to various
places, where they await identification,
and the work has only just begun. Every
hour or so the forces of men working on
the va ious heaps of deb: is find numbers OF
bodies buried in the mud and wreckage.
1t is believed that when the flames are
extinguished in the wfeckage at the bridge
and the same is removed hundreds and
hundreds Of victims will be discovered. In
fact this seems certain, as dozens OF bodies
have already been found on the outskirts OF
the huge mass of broken timbers.
The ieports from outside points are also
appalling Up to o'clock $50 bodies had
been embalmed at Nireveh, and there Is a
report that 200 more have been discovered
half buried in the mud on an island be-
tween New Florence and the place named.
At the -Four tn ward schoolhouse over one
hundred victims have been laid out for
Identification. In many cases they have

that they have lost their tenors, and the
finding of body he and there attracts

that constantly line the river banks and

The COlOneI,s Shot.

One night, the son of Colonel Dodge,
while sleeping in camp upon the
ground next to his father, and lying on
his stomach, was awakened by dis
agreeable cold tremor running through
him. He called to his father, and said
Father, there is something the matter
with me. 1 think have got chill. I
have cold sensation in the small of
my back, very strange, unlike anything
/ ever felt before, and am frightened"
To this the father, suspecting the truth,
replied: "Lie perfectly STILL" then
jumped from his own place of repose,
stood q few feet away from the boy
with his pistol in his hand, and said to
him. when count three, 1 want you
to jump!" The boy replied, "All right"
The Colonel then counted three, and
Frederick jumped to his feet, dislodg-
ing from his back an enormous rattle
snake which had coiled there for
warmth, and the Colonel shot the SER
pent before he could strike the boy.

lifeless upon the banks and partly buried
in debris. Such fearful desti uction as was
o casioned within the thirty miles from the
dam to the town of New Florence has
never before been recorde 1. The stone
bridge Of the Pennsylvania railroad COM
pany Just below JChnstown withstood the
tremendous food, and against its piers was
thrown a mass of wreckage, to which per-
haIs a thousand human beings were cling
ing tenaciously for life. Portions of house
after house were added to this drift which
became an immen o dam. Even bridges,
freight cars, and locomotives were 10 ged
there. Then 10 the horror of the flood was
added that of fire, which was communicate ted

had hoped for succor from the waters were
burned to death

devastation in the entire zion is SO COM
plete as to prevent access TO the deg olate

lages below Johnstown have become char
mel houses, all points announcing numbers
of dead left by the rcceding waters.
Several trains on { Pennsylvania rail
road were overtaken by the rising
waters and soma passengers, strangers
to the locality, lost their lives in the ex-
citement which prevailed. In Johnstown
and neighboring places whole families
were swept away together. The scene of
utter desolation the deeds of heroism, and
the lamentation of those unable 10 learn

fact that ghouls who escaped the flood
robbed the dead bodies of valuables.

One Hundred Years Ago.

There was not an iron plow in the
United States then. The first iron
plow was patented in 1897, but it was
a fiat failure. The intelligent farmers
of New Jersey, upon the first trial,
pronounced the pillow not only worth
less but great evil, on the ground
that "it poisoned the soil" so that seeds
would not germinate. About the mid
die of the last century it was not un-
common in England that the point of
the plow was shod with iron, and in
1885 an Englishman invented cast
iron share and in 1890 the Landslide"
of the plow. In 1898 Thomas Jeffer-
son wrote an elaborate essay on the
proper construction of the mold-board
of the plow. But progress was slow,
owing to the prejudice and ignorance
of the farmers. In view of the gang,
riding, and sulky plows now in use on
almost every farm it seems like telling
a dream to say it was not until 1904
that David Peacock obtained a patent
for plow having the mold-board and
Landslide of cast-iron and separate,
while the share was of wrought iron,
edged with steel

Johnstown tho Worst Imaginable Pict

Johnstown tho Worst Imag ENABLE Pict-

JoHNsTowN, Pa, June 8. When Super
intendent Pitcairn telegraphed to Pitts
burg on the night of the flood that Johns
town was annihilated he came very near to
the facts of the case, although he had not
seen the ill-fated city. To say that Johns
town is a wreck is but stating the facts OF
the case. Nothing like it was ever seen in
this country. Where long rows of dwell
ling houses and Lusiness blocks stood
forty eight hours ago rnin and desolation
now Teis n supreme. Probably fifteen
hundred houses have been swept from the
face OF the earth as completely as il they
had never been erected. Main street
from end to end Is piled
fifteen and tw,nty feet high
with debris, and in some instances IL
Is as high as the roofs of the houses. This
great mass OF W eckage fills the street
from Gu 10 curb, and fequent.y has
crushed in the fronts of buildings and filed
the space with iemlnde of the To ible
calamity. The. 9 is p obably not a man in
the place who can give any reliable es-
innate Of the number of houses that have
been swept away. City Solicitor Kuhn,
who should be very good Authority in this
matter, places the matte at l,5DJ. From
the wooden mil above the island to the
bridge. distan of pi obably two miles,
a strip Of territory nearly half mile ia
width has been swept clean, not stick OF

imagination can portray. All day long

hillside opposite the doomed town.
''As the train sped along at a rate of
speed that made me think the engineer had
gone mad took one look back upon the
valley. What a sight it was! AThe popu-
lous valley for miles either way was a
seething, roaring caldron, through whose

the town was swept away. The water
came so quickly that escape from the low
district was impossible. People retreated
to the upper floors of their residences until
the water had got too deep to allow their
escape.
''When the big food came the houses
were picked up like pasteboard boxes or
collapsed like egg-shells. The advance of
the flood was black with houses, logs, and
other debries, so that it struck Johnstown
