BALLAST.

July will see change in the personnel
of two of the city ticket Offices. C. e. Robo
will on that date assume the duties of city
ticket agent of the Kansas City road, reliev-
ing Jack Wheelan. Mr.. Robb has run the
Wisconsin Centrars ticket Office ever since
the line was first built into st. Paul, and has
made himself very popular with all the boys
Though nothing is definitely settled, it is
taken as foregone conclusion in railroad
circles that Charles E. Dixon. who has been
Mr.. Robbs assistant for some time, will be
appointed city ticket agent to fill the latter's
place. All the boys hope so, anyway.
The story about criminal proceedings be-
ing Instituted against the 500 road is gener-
ally discredlted by local railroad men. Gen
eral Freight Agents Sawyer. Of the Manitoba;
Moore. OF the Northern Pacific; Plough, of the
st. Paul Il Duluth: Assistant General Freight
Agent Proudfit, Of the Omaha General Agents
Parker, of the Zoo; Barry, of the Wisconsin
Central; and Boyden.of the Chicago, Milwau-
kee 4 St Paul. all laugh at the story as
piece of ridiculous absurdity, emanating
from the fertile brain of some reporter or an
error growing out of some suit instituted by
some individual against the road.

TWIN OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

The figures on the prohibition vote in
Pennsylvania would indicate that the
amendment people had made mistake
as to the day of election or had let it go
by default. A majority of 1SS.0O0
against when a close vote was antici-
patcd may be classed as popular revo-
luton. Taken with the voting in that
direction in Massachusetts and Rhode
Island, it may be assumed that there is
a pervading conviction that prohibition
is failure. In the face of this popular
disposition shown, there is but one state
in which the question is in issue that is
hopeful for the exterminator that is
South Dakota. In North Dakota all but
a dozen or so small counties have re-
jected local option, and the amendment
will be decisively beaten in October. In
the South the ProhibitiOnists control
the Republican party, the Farmers alli-
ance and some other minor elements.
They have had the field pretty much so
far, but the same causes must be oper-
alive as in the East. They will have to
make big fight now to save South Da-
kota, and it is not certain that they can
roll back the wave there.

the excellence of the performance until
it is past. There are no tricks I'm her

but the plain, honest power of q
superior voice. Signor Campauini's
appearance was the signal for
another Outburst of applause. He sang
instead OF the "Salve Dimora," from
Faust, a selection from the Italian
school, which gave play to the falsetto
portion of his voice. He was cheered
again and again, and bringing forward

EIGHT WE'RE DROWNED.
Pitiful Story of the Floods In
Arkansas.

LITTLE Rock, Ark, June 21.-Al-
though the loss of life in the C0nemaugh
valley was much greater the results of
that dreadful disaster are still fresh in
the minds of those who have followed
the newspaper accounts of the flood.
it has sequel, the facts of which were
given tonight to a Gazette reporter by
Capt, "Newt" Faulkinbury, the deputy
United States marshal, and more
pitiful story is rarely heard Of. oc-
curing as it did nearer home. On
this trip to Conway and Van Buren,
counties, the other day, he learned
that during heavy rain storm
in that section of the state, last Satur-
day night. an old man named Emerson
had the misfortune to lose his wife and
seven children in flood. As near as he
dOus rain near Clinton, the county seat
OF Van Buren, county, on the upper Red
river, and it was near this place the
distressing scene took place. Emer-
son, who is an old settler in Van
Buren, county, was with his family in
his house OF night when the storm was
raging. After an hours rain. the water
gradually flooded his house and, fearing
danger inside, he gathered two
of his children in his arms and
made for the door to escape.
As the door opened huge log
afloat dashed in the entrance and
knocked the little ones from his arms.
They fell at his feet into the swift cur.
rent and were lost. He then took up
two more. one in each arm, and sue
ceeded in getting out with them safely,
telling his wife to follow with the
others, but in attempting to escape
in the same manner, the mother
with two children in her arms and three
clinging to her dress, was carried down
with the flood and drowned. The father
and two children, the only ones left in
family of eleven, escaped with their
lives. The night was dark, and the
his large family stood in water above the
waist clinging to tree for several hours
and when the water subsidized in the
morning a search was made and the
dead bodies OF the mother and seven
children were discovered scattered here
and there for considerable distance
around the place, the clothing hav-
ing caught in underbrush and the
bodies held fast in that way. Two
of the bodies were found in the garden
lot, short distance from the house, to
where they had been carried by the
force of the water, and others as far as
fifty yards FROM the house. Capt.
FauIkinbury saw .,nelghbOr last
Wednesday who said he had
assisted in burying the Inflated
family the next day. He was
told that 1t was the heaviest storm
that has ever visited that section of the
state, describing it as water spout,
and although it lasted only short
while, it worked loss of life and prop
erty that cannot be easily estimated.
The home of Mr.. Emerson is total
wreck, it is said, and he is almost dis
tracted with grief. Further than this
Capt. Faulkinbury could learn nothing
definite. except that the loss of live
stock and damage to property was
great. If others suffered like fate as
befell the Emersons, he was unable to

Work for Cooley ct Al.

WASHINGTON. June 21.-Two inn
portant cases will come up for hearing
before the interstate commerce commits
sion next week. The first is set for the
25th inst. and involves the question Of
cotton transportation rates. The New
Orleans cotton exchange is complainant
and several Southern and Southwestern
railroads are defendants. The COM
plant is discrimination in rates against
cotton carried from the cotton belt to
New Orleans and in favor of cotton
carried from New Orleans to Eastern
cities. The second case, which will come
up for hearing on the 27th, is that of
the Independent Refiners Association
of Titusville and Oil City against sew
eral roads that carry oil to the seaboard,
and involves discrimination in rates
against the refiners.

STRUCK BY A CYCLONE.
A Two-Pronged Wind Storm Does
Great Damage in Missouri.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, June 2I.-The
Times received late tonight the follow
ing from Albany, Mo-: At $50 p. m.
yesterday this vicinity was Wis.,
tied by two cyclones, or one
in two prOngs. 1t struck the frame
residence of II. ?. Williams, three miles
east of this city and completely demol-
ished it. Mr.. Williams nine-year-old
son and mother-in-law, Mrs. Crispin,
were instantly killed. Mrs. Williams
was fatally injured and three children
were badly hurt. The cyclone wiped
out the little village of Lone
Star, destroying the storehouse aud
goods of A. G.. Townsend, the Baptist
church, school house and many resi-
dences. Mr.. Townsend, the postmaster.
is thought to be fatally injured, as is
also Mrs. George Stineman. Many other
farm houses and outbuildings were de-
stroyed, and it is impossible to estimate
the damages. At a citizens meeting
here to-day several hundred dollars
were raised and clothing for the suffer-
ers provided.

FIREMEN OWN THE TOWN.
The Yankton Tournament Comes
to a Successful Close.

The YanktOn Tournament Comes
to q Successful Close.
Special to the Globe.
YANKToN, Dak., June 21.-The last
day of the most successful tournament
OF the South Dakota association is
closed. Huron captured the champion
hose cart and Miller won the free-for-
all hook and ladder race. The games
at the grounds during the afternoon
were of great interest. The scores are
as follows: Novelty laddermen's con-
test. 100 yards and mount ladder, won
by Elliott, of Aberdeen, in 16 seconds;
COquillette, Of Miller, 1917; Smith, of
Miller, 1871; Malumley, Of Madison, II.
In the hose coupling contest, Higbie
tied at 5 seconds. The tie was run off,
Higbee winning in AZ seconds. The
champion hose race for 5000 and the
champion hose cart was won by Huron
IN 40 seconds, YanktOn second in 4O4,
kimball, AZ, and Dell Rapids A. The
free-for-all hook and ladder race was
won by Miller in 40Z. The board Of
control elected the following officers:
President, Richard Wood, of Sioux
Falls; first vice-president, l.. C. Tucker,
OF Aberdeen; second vice-president,
Henry Schalz, of Scotland; recording
secretary, James Kingsbury, of Yank-
ton; treasurer, B. l.. Moffatt, of Miller.
Resolutions were passed by the board
censuring the railroads for not granting
better rates for firemen and their ap-
paratus. To say that the city is wild
with excitement is only mildly de-
scribing the situation. Last night
the firemen raided all the gamb-
ling resorts and closed them
up. Tonight an immense mob is pa
rading the streets, and bands of music
are on every street crossing. All the
firemen Joined in the parade as the
Huron company drew the champion
cart through the streets. Thousands of
ribbon badges have been printed giving
the time of the different running
teams. and which the boys are exchang-
ing. The tournament has been a sue
cess in every way, and the officers of the
association are to be commended for
their earnest work in making it so.
nearly all the visiting firemen will
leave in the morning for their homes,
and are unanimous in saying that the
Yankton tournament has eXcelIed all
previous efforts. Sioux Falls will prob
ably be the place where the next tour
nament will occur.

REFORM IDEAS INDICATED.

Possibly it is not so much the presi-
dent as ex-Corporal TANNER who was
aiming to please himself in the removal
of SQUIREs as confidential secretary to
give place to his daughter. If SQUIREs
had been holding under Democratic
administration, scandal would have
shocked good Republican editors and
statesmen. This SQUIREs insulted one
of the female clerks, and wrote her in
decent letters, and it was local sensa-
ton. Then he went in eahoots with
pension attorneys to get their jobs
through, and Numbered so that it be-
came public. Being a heightened, re-
form administration, this did not look
just the thing, especially as the place
was handy for one of the TANNER fam
lily just out of school. So SQU1HEs is
sent off to Montana as timber in
spector. with better salary and nicer
plckings. This indicated the reform
ideas, and averted anything in the way
of a scandal. 1t is much pleasanter OPP
Grating the government when the chief
aim is to please the operator, and the
bad fellows are sent off to the woods of
a Democratic territory.

Lake Superior Lines Finally
Compel the Chicago Roads
to Surrender.
The Latter Will Use Their
Local Rates to Recoup
Themselves.
Special Terms for the PrOtec-
ton Of Local Shippers to
Be Made.
The New Schedule Will Go
Into Effect on the Fifth
Of July.

CHICAGO, June 21.-The Chicago
roads to-day formally surrendered to
the Lake Superior lines all the through
traffic from the seaboard to st. Paul,
and will hereafter use local business to
recoup the loss. 1t was at meeting OF
the Western and Northwestern divisions
of the Western Freight association that
the decision was reached. The agree
ment, it is claimed, will materially I'M
prove the Northwestern rate situation,
as far as Chicago and Chicago roads are
concerned. Action was unanimous.
The plan is to put into effect July 5 the
same rates on through traffic to st.
Paul and Minneapolis as apply on
local business to the same points.
In other words they will discontinue the
application of lower rates oh through
traffic originating at points east of Chi
cago than are applied on shipments
from Chicago proper. They could hard
ly do otherwise, it was thought, with
even rates in effect to st. Paul and Chi
cago from seaboard points. unless they
had accepted the proposition OF the
trunk lines to prO-rate with them on
their business. This proposition was
rejected. AS the matter now stands,
discrimination against Chicago is re-
moved. Special rates are to be made for
the protection of local shippers between
Chicago and St. Paul on both through
and local traffic on number of commodi-
ties such as iron articles. sugar, syrup.
agricultural implements, etc. These
rates will apply on carload quantities
only, land will be about 80 per cent lower
than the regular class rates, the object
being to establish, nearly as possible:
system of special rates in line with the
situation in the north. 1t is proposed
to supplement- to-day's action by an at
tempt next week to abolish the pro-rate
on business between Eastern points
and the Mississippi river, and base all
through rates on the sum of the locals:
The author of the scheme is General
Freight Agent Hamblin, of the Chicago.
