1t is located; but If you will take map and

Central: fifth, the Cleveland, Cincin-
natl. Chicago & st. Louis formerly the
"Bee Line" and "Big Four'o railroads
you will be impressed with the wonderful
foresight of the men who designed and ex-
ecuted the plan to operate under a uniform
policy. and practically a common control. a
system of railways that should furnish unsur-
passed transportation faculties TO the great
commercial empire outlined above, and
q trip over this granu aggregation Will
convince the most skeptical that the Van
derbt System of Railways. of which
the New York Central & Hudson River
Railroad is the main stem. traverses
the very heart of the business por-
ton of this continent, touching, either di-
rectly or through its immediate connec-
tons. all the important commercial centers
of the country. and offering TO health, pleas
ure and business travel facilities that are
not equalled by any similar institution in
the world.
An edition of one hundred thousand copies
of very neat little pamphlet bearing the
title at the head of this article has just been
issued by the American Bank Note Com
pany of New York. which contains much
interesting information concerning this
great system.

FLOODS AT LINCOlII.
Five Hundred Houses Visited by SAT-
Creek.

Creek.
LINCOLN, Neb, Aug. IA The most dis
astrous food ever experienced in Lincoln.
occurred yesterday. Monday very heavy
rains fell for miles around. and all the
little streams overlooked their banks. By
Yesterday the surplus water reached
Lincoln and Salt creek spread over the
low lands with astonishing rapidity.
There has been no serious overflow
in SIX years. and in that time hundreds of
small houses have been erected in that
part of the city. where laborers and poor
people live on account of cheap rents.
Just after noon it became evident that
the whole valley would be submerged and
the work of rescue began at once. Women
and children were carried out by hand
and in wagons, many women wading
through the water two or three feet deep.
The chief of police estimates that more
than $40 houses are flooded and entirely
cut off and their occupants, numbering
Certainly as much as 1000, rendered home-
less. The city came to the rescue. and the
Park school was opened to the refugees,
where many of them have been fed.
There are many cases of restitution. the
people having lost all they had. The flood
is not running fast, and unless it in
creases, which is not probable, as no rain
is falling, few, if any of the houses, will
be raised from their foundation.

THE TERRY TAKING OFF.
A Warrant For the Arrest of Judge Field
The Inquest.

Warrant For the Arrest OF Judge Field
The Inquest.
STOCKTON, Cal, Aug. ia warrant was
issued yesterday for the arrest of Justice
Stephen J. Field on complaint of Mrs.
Sarah Althea Terry. who charges him
with completely in the killing of her hus-
band, David s Terry. at Lathrop Wednes-
day, and Sheriff Cunningham left for San
Francisco to arrest Justice Field.
The attorneys who have been engaged
to defend Deputy Marshal Maggie. wis.,
shot Terry, promised that justice Field
wou d appear when wanted. but Mrs. Ter
ry's complaint was made against both.
The funeral of Judge Terry will be held
to-day. The body has been kept at the
morgue and Mrs. Terry has not left it at
any time.
At the inquest over the body of Judge
Terry no new facts were developed. A
number of witnesses were examined,
among them being the proprietor of the
hotel at Lathrop The coroner's jury re-
turned verdict that the deceased came to
his death from the fleet of gunshot
wounds inflicted by David Maggie at
Lathrop.
1t is the theory of those about the
United States marshal's office that Mrs.
Terry when she threw herself upon her
husbands body when he was shot by Dep
uty Marshal Maggie, took a weapon from
aim, as when the body was searched no
Weapon was found. Both Judge Field
nd Judge Sawyer continue TO be care
fully guarded as Mrs Terry, it is feared,
will seek vengeance for the killing Of
Judge Terry.

thousands of cures for many years past.

they are doing, through druggists, under
positive guarantee of its giving satisfaction
in every case, or money paid for it will be
refunded. No medicine of ordinary merit
could be sold under such severe conditions
with profit to its proprietors. and no other
medicine for the diseases for which it is
recommended was ever before sold under a
guarantee of cure or nU pay. In all blood

nature, it is most positive in its curative eff
fects. Pimples, blotches. eruptions and all

What Gun Cotton Is.

Gun cotton is a highly inffammable
and explosive compound. which is OBJ
tanned by the action of nitric acid on
cotton in the presence of sulphuric
acid. By varying the strength of the
nitric acid. three kinds OF gun cotton
may be obtained. of which the first is
but slightly explosives; the second is
adapted for the preparation of COLO
dion, but is not explosive enough to
be used as a substitute for gunpowder;
while the third is highly explosive,
and is largely used in mining and mil
itary operations. The celebrated Aus
trian gun cotton is made by first thor
oughly cleansing and drying the cot
ton. then sleeping it in a mixture of
sulphuric and nitric acids. 1t is then
taken out. squeezed as dry as possible.
and put in fresh mixture of strong
acids. where it is allowed to lie forty
eight hours. 1t is then washed sew
eral times in a stream of water. and
then finally dipped into solution of
silicate of potassa or soluble glass.
The silicate of potassa is only used for
the purpose OF retarding combustion.
This gun cotton is of no use whatever
for preparing collodion. but it is use
full explosive and is used for making
cartridges. Inter Ocean.

Thick With Smoke.

PORTLAND, Ore, Aug. 1.-THE Amos
phere for miles around is thick with
smoke and cinders and burning brands
are falling in showers. All the North
western country seems 10 be burning up in
forest fires. The smoke has been so dense
in Portland for the last two or three
weeks that for time it was impossible to
see far up the street and the sun and
moon looked like great red balls of fire.
In the harbor the smoke has had the effect
of fog. and steamers have been required
TO blow their whistles every few minutes
to avoid collisions 1t is estimated that
the total damage by forest fires in the
Northwes. this year will amount to nearly
nalf a million dollars
