A VERITABLE DELUGE.

OWatOnna's Streets Converted In
to Miniature Rivers by Rain.
Special to the Glope.
OWAToNNA, Minn., July 25.-The
heaviest fall of rain in three years was
experienced to-day between 6 and 7:30
p. m. The rain came down in sheets
accompanied by wind and hail, break
ing down trees, blowing down small
buildings and scattering things all over
the streets. The cutters could not
hold the immense volume of water, and
nearly every street looked like a small
river. The river rose several feet in
consequence. This will hinder the
farmers in their harvesting, as most of
the wheat is standing and other grains
are in the shock.

BUSHELS OF OLD BONES.
Hundreds of Skeletons Found in
the Chalk Pits Near Yankton.

Special to the Globe
YANKToN, Dak., July 25.-A party of
explorers to-day unearthed number of
human skeletons buried in the chalk
bluffs, ten miles east of Yankton on the
Nebraska side. Fifty skulls and 200
headless skeletons were found, which
local physicians pronounce to be the re-
mains of white people, children and
adults. The indications are that they
have been buried forty or fifty years.
Two theories are advanced to account
for their presence in the chalk pits.
One is that they were Immigrants bound
for California in 1S49, who were mur-
dered by Indians. Another theory is
that they were Indians of some tribe at
war with the Sioux, and that they were
massacred. Further researches will be

hurried home with him as fast as posi-
bic, but he was too late, for the boy
breathed his last just as they reached

THE Sherman Register has made
the mistake common to many other
journals when it adversely criticises
the Nashville judge who released
Sullivan. 1t says:
THE Tennessee papers are raising
the epidermis of Judge McA lister,
who released Sullivan at Nashville
without giving Lowry's reauisltion a
chance to arrive"
1t was not the place of the judge to
hold Sullivan under the circum-
stances. There was no indictment
against him. Had there been an IN
dictment and Sullivan fleeing from
arrest, he could have been held until
extradition papers arrived, but who
ever heard ola man being held for ex-
