WORK OF THE TORRENT,

aud Rolling Mill Machinery
The awful torrent came down the mar
row defile between the mountains, a
distance of nine miles, and with fall
of 300 feet in that distance, sweeping
away the villages of South Fork, Mineral
Point, Woodvale and Conemaugh, leav-
ing but one building standing, woolen
mill, where but an hour before had stood
and dashing on with the roar
of cataract and with the speed of the
wind upon the fair city at the foothills.
The great Gautier steel works sat in this
plain and the city below it, railroad
tracks bounding it at the base of the
on the north. Here is where
the trains were standing when the tide
of water, like a catapult, came down
upon them with such resistless force that
the heavy trains, locomotives and Pull
mans all were overturned and
Swept Down the Torrent
and were lodged against the great stone
viaduct along with forty -one locomotives
from the Johnstown round house, the
heavy machinery and ponderous frame
work of the Gautier mill, the accumu-
lated debris Of more than thousand
houses, furniture, bridges, lumber, drift
and human beings. The low arches of
the stone viaduct choked up Immediately
and the water backed over the entire level
of the valley upon which the city stood
to the depth of about thirty eight feet at
the water works. In the great sea thus
formed hundreds, perhaps thousands,
of people were struggling for life. The
scene now is one of the most narrowing
possible for the Imagination of man to
conceive. The accumulated drift gorged
up at the viaduct to a height of forty
feet
And Then Took Fire
from the upsetting Of stoves or lamps.
Then were strong men made sick at
the sight. As the flames cracked and
roared among the dry finder of the float
ing houses human bodies were seen
pinioned between the house roofs, loco
motives, iron beams. freight, passenger
and Pullman and baggage cars, the
greedy flames licking with haste their
Diet Of Human Flesh.
The ss;ens was horrible beyond des-
cription. From infancy few days old
to the wasted figure Of age were burned
before the eyes Of the beholders, and no
rescue from such . fate was possible.
Strong men turned away with sg0nized
expressions and women shrieked at the
horror Of the scene. @
Even Greater Than at Johnseow..
Kernsille has only house OF two Is .
to its former respectable pro
portions. Cambria City Is not even 4
ghost Of its former self, while all along
the line of the torrent the isolated houses
Of hundreds are without occupants. The
relief provisions for Johnstown must be
extended to these other places as rapidly
as railroad transportation facilities caI,
be furnished. The towns named all lie
between Johnstown and South Fork
dam, whore bursting caused the disaster.
AT Woodyale the dead bodies Of hun
dreds are lying IN the debries relatively
as numerous as they are IN Johnstown.
At Conemaugh the same condition of
things prevails The scarcity of the
living af both places makes the recovery
Of bodies very slow work.

LATEST LOSS EST!MASES.

Some Say it viii BE Not Over 5000,
While Others Place it Much Higher.
JOHNsTowN, Pa, June 5-While the
total loss of life at Johnstown and the
surrounding boroughs of Cambria, Nor
reville, Kernville and Conemaugh will
never be known, yet fair attempt is
now being made to ascertain it within O
reasonably fair limit This is being done
through bureau of registration which
has been established. Twenty eight
agencies have been established within
the food districts and all survivors havo
been notified to register themselves and
their families at once.
Up to Noon 5000 Persons
had registered. There were 29,500 peo-
pie residing in Johnstown and the
boroughs named before the terrible
catastrophe. When the work of registra-
tion is finished it will be known about
how many persons are missing. The
work is very carefully and thoroughly
done, special care being taken to prevent
Implications.
Loss variously Estimated.
Superintendent Morgan, of the Cambria
Iron company: who is regarded as an ex-
ceptionally leyel-headed man, has re-
turned from tour of the entire flooded
district. He declared that only about
Is 900 people are now alive, where 29.50O
lived and had their being before the
flood. Adjutant General Hastings main.
tains that the death list may not exceed
5000, and of this number he thinks 1000
bodies will never be recovered. Mr.. Nc
Connaughy, the chief of the bureau of
registration says that he is convinced
that the number who persisted is fully
1000. y. ..<
Three hundred more bodies were found
during the afternoon opposite Nineveh.
This makes 7O0 bodies found at that
place. ~,

FIGHT YOUR OWN BATTLES.
SOME GOOD ADVICE TO THE BOYS.
other Stories For Young FoIks-The Story
of Good Intentions But Dnatory Ac-
tion-A Very Severe Test-Cat
and Dog Interviews.

Fight your own battles. Hoe your own
row. Ask no favors of anyone ana you'll
succeed thousand times better than any
one who is always beseeching someone's
influence and patronage. No one will
ever help you as you help yourself be-
cause no one will be so heartily interested
in your affairs. The first step will be such
a long one, perhaps; but carving your own
way up the mountain you make each one
lead to another, and stand firm while you
chop still another out Men who have
made fortunes are not those who have
had $1,000 given them to start with, but
boys who have started fair with a we'll
earned dollar or two.
Men who acquire fame have never been
thrust into popularity by pufs begged or
paid for, or given in friendly spirit. They
have outstretched their own hands and
touched the public hearts. Men who win
love do their own wooing, and l never
knew a man to fail so signally as one who
induced his affectionate grandmother to
speak a good word for him.
Whether you work for fame, for love,
for money, or for anything else, work with
your hands and heart and brain. Say Il
will" and some day you will conquer.
Never let any man have it to say, Il have
dragged you up" Too many friends some
times hurt man more than none at all.

"CUT AND Rum"
How Henry Clay Got Rid of Goat in
Washington.
rOmaha Bee


The following anecdote of Henry Clay has
just been published for the first time: As he
came out OF the capitol at Washington one day,
seeing frightened woman IN the street striving
to ward of the attacks of a sportive goat he
CALAMITY. IN spite OF his years and Office, seized
the goat by the horns. The woman thanked
him and sped hurriedly on. Mr.. Clay would
have liked to move on also, but the goat had its
own views about the interference with his inno-
cent amusement As soon as the woman's
deliverer loosed his hold on the two horns, the
animal rose maiestically on its hind legs and
prepared for a charge. In his own defense Nr.
Clay now took the animal as before by the horns
and thus for a time they stood. while crowd of
street boys gathered about, immensely amused
at the unusual spectacle OF a senator and goat
pitted one against the other in a public street.
As long as Mr.. Clay held the goat by the horns,
all was well but the moment the quadruped
was free, came fresh preparation for charge.
Not boy offered assistance, but after a while
one ventured forward TO make a suggestion.
Throw the billy down, sir" Mr.. Clay at
once accepted and adopted the report of that
committee, and tipping the goat up essayed TO
pass on. Before he could fairly turn away,
however the goat was up in lofty preparation
for new charge. Mr. Clay gave his enemy the
floor once more and turned to his new adviser.
"And what shall do, now"
Cut and run like the devil, F" replied the lad.

GOOD INTENTIONS,
Fred Russell Was Too Busy Even to Write
to his Mother.


Fred Russell Was Too Busy Even to Write
to his Mother.
Fred Russell was exceedingly busy. He
had lived in the city only three years and
was already known as a rising young
man." The only trouble seemed to be
that he had no time for anything except
his daily business.
He could not even write to his mother
For the last year. indeed, he had sent her
only an occasional hurried note.
One night, having finished his work IN
usually early, he sat by the fire thinking
about her, and it was "borne in upon
him." as she would have said, to write her
a long letter.
He described his mode of life at great
length, INQUIRED with careful interest all
about home affairs, and even tried to tell
her at the end that he loved her dearly,
though he seemed to neglect her.
There, said he, 81 don't believe l have
been as sweet on anybody since was a
boy; and here register VOW that l will
write every week-as good letters, too, as
know how to concoct."
When he came home from work the
next night he found telegram awaiting
him: Mother is sick. Come at once"
He hurried to the quiet country village,
and by the time he reached the desolate
home the message should have been
changed to read, Mother is dead" Just
as these words were uttered by his Sob
bling sister he CHANGED to glance at the
table where lay his letter-unopened.
She would never read it. The dear ewes
were not now to be frightened, nor the
faithful heart cheered by seeing in those
loving words the record of his good inten-
tons. 1t was too late.
