BALTIMORES CELEBRATION.
Eighty Thousand Persons Witness an Imita-
tiOn of the Battle with the British in 1874

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
BALTIMORE, Nd, Sept. 12.-The principal
event to-day was the sham battle of North
Point, at Pimlico. There wasn't much fun
in it for those engaged, for the rain fell con-
stantly. Nevertheless Pimlico was visited
by $4,000 people this afternoon. From the
advent of the 5000 troops upon the field
until the closing acts, the movements of the
two armies were those of the troops of
1914, as nearly as possible. First was
the advance of the British army and
the killing of General Ross. Then followed
the attack upon the first American line, its
reinforcement and the retirement of the
line to the reserve troops. The battle was
renewed as it was under Gen. Stricken.
There was a determined attack. and the
third line of the American army stood firm
while the British retired defeated. Gen.
Payne of Baltimore commanded the Amer
lean army, while Gen. Gather was in
charge of the British.
The battle lasted about an hour and q
half. At the close Vice-president Morton
went to New York to attend the funeral of
the late Congressman S. S. Cox. Postmas-
ter-general Wanamaker came to Baltimore
and was entertained by the reception COM
mittee. The others Of the Washington
party returned.

SCENES AT ATLANTIC CITY.
E6orts Of the People to Reach Places of
Safety-A Night Of Terror

Safety-A Night Of Terror.
ATLANTIC CITY, n. j., Sept. 12.-It will
take months for this city to recover from
the loss the storm has caused. The wind
still blows at the rate of thirty-fve to forty
miles an hour, and it is still raining. The
beach tides have not been large, and, CON-
sequently. are unaccompanied by further
damage. The meadows are still three and
four feet under water. The damage To
road-beds of the railroad companies is
worse than was at first anticipated. Three
or four foolhardy people reached here to-
day from Pleasantville. They walked to
the big railroad tower. where the principal
washout is, when they swan and drew
themselves along, hand over hand. on the
loose rails. Remy Fegel. who keeps the
Fegel Thoroughfare House, tells of dar-
ing rescue at o'clock Tuesday afternoon.
1t was found necessary to move out owing
to the rising waters. The current was too
strong to row q boat. so Mr.. Fegel and six
strong men took a party of thirty people
from the Thoroughfsre Hotel 10 Atlantic
City proper. The ladies were led several
hundred yards through the water, which
was up to their necks. There were twelve
small children in the party.
BY the action of the tide an inlet now
runs through Chelsea. The latter place is
still submerged. From the fourth floor OF
the Law building. brick structure. one can
get comprehensive idea of the great
storm of wind and waves which has swept
Atlantic City. The meadows appear 10 be
a vast lake surrounding tho city. Many
days must elapse before the actual loss will
be known. In walking along the beach
early this morning portion of an old
wreck was observed lying at the foot OF
Missouri avenue. 1t was found to be tho
wreck of the breakwater, which foundered
seven years ago Just opposite this city. or
directly on a line with Howard's pier.
The FIRE here on Tuesday night created a
panic among the hotel guests, who were
endeavoring to get few hours rest, after
watching the storm the night before. It
was a period of terror for these people. and

windows and saw the. sky illuminated

ANDERSON. Sept. 12.-The fall session of
the public schools of this city was begun
last Monday. Requisition for a supply of
the Becktold textbooks was filed with the
publishers several weeks ago. butnone have
yet been received. Much confusion pre-
impossible to organize and grade classes
properly. The discarded books are being
used, as Tar as practicable, and the teach
ers are doing what they can to supply the
deficiency by writing lessons on the black
boards. superintendent Dipboye says the
Indianapolis manager of the publishing
company marked his requisition special
which, it was explained, meant that no de-
lay In hlliqg 1T would be permitted ON any
account. 1t Is known to Mr.. Dipboye, how
ever, that orders from neighboring towns
for the new books, which were junior to the
Anderson order, have already been filed.
He is inclined TO charge fayoritism upon
the publishing company.

one element and opposed as vigorously by
another element. The manufacturers of
