WHERE THE MONEY HAS GONE.
Over $4,000 Spent in the Conemaugh VAL
ley in Building Houses and Buying Collins.

JoHNsTowN, Pa, July 20.-Mr. S. S. Mar
vim and Secretary j. B. Kremer, of the
Flood Relief Commission, were in town to-
day. They visited the commissary and
other relief headquarters, and expressed
themselves as pleased with what they saw.
Mr.. Kremer says that over $4,000 has al
ready been expended in Johnstown, not in
cluding the S5OO.OOO now being paid
out. He did not give figures to
show clearly where this money had gone.
but said it exceeded $4,000. One hundred
homes had been bought or contracted for,
costing S160 each; 100 costing S207 each, and
200 two-story homes to be built by con-
tractor Hughes at $500 each. In addition,
ffty-two business stands had been built at
q cost of 1925 each. This would make a
total of S109.950. In addition some money
was spent for collins. lumber and the like
Over three-fourths of the money coming
into the hands of Governor Beaver direct
was for the sufferers In the COnemaugh val
ley, the balance being for the flood suf-
ferers of Pennsylvania.
Mr.. kremer said that 1t was likely the
Williamsport region would get another ap-
prOprlatlon, as 1t seemed they had not re-
ceived their share. When asked why q
clear statement OF the moneys received and
expended was not made. he said there was
a difficulty in determining as to what fund
certain items should be charged, such, for
instance. as the burial of the dead. 1t was
question, he said, whether the State had
a right to pay for that, and until these
questions were determined it was not con-
sidered proper to make q statement.
Judge Cummin only spent short time at
his office this morning. he being somewhat
indisposed, and Treasurer Thompson assist
ed hlm in his share of the work. This was
the biggest days work yet, and the whole
force was kept busy until o'clock. S2O, $40
being paid out during the day.
Only two bodies were taken to the morgue
to-day.

THE SHAH BORED.

He Is Getting Tired of Globe e-Trotting-How
His Jewels Were Lost and Returned.
London Special to Pittsburg Dispatch.
The Shah still goes on sightseeing,
though his unlucky Majesty is getting very
tired of it, goes to sleep more and more,
misses his engagements, and occasionally
protests against being taken away from
something that he likes, as Lake Lomond,
to 60 somewhere else, to place that bores
him. He does not want to go to Glasgow,
or to stay at other places, but, as he is q
globe-trctter, he is bound to globe-trot
Although he is king, and keeps going
ahead, the Shah has just had a very serious
nerve storm. and some of his attendants
have had a much worse one. Four of these
dark Persian gentlemen are intrusted with
the care of the black leather bag which con-
talns about S5,OOO,OOO worth of the Shah's
best jewels. The fact has transpired that
when the Shah arrived at Hatfield Lord
Salisbury's place, the bag. of jewels was
attendants could find it. A special train
was sent back to London, and, after long
hunt, the bag of diamonds, rubies ETC., was
found in the royal stables, in the boot of
the drag which carried the Shah's luggage
to the railroad statiOn-a wonderful Oppor-
tunity for LondOn's professional thieves.
When the four Persians intrusted with the
jewels recovered the bag they actually
kissed it, and embraced it. and carried it
OFF to the Shah, all holding OH to it together.
Their fate. on returning to Persia, If they
had lost these jewels, is not pleasant to con-
template but very easy to guess.
Confidence in the Shah's moral character
is becoming more and more undermined. 1t
is well known that he brought with him
one of the young Circassian girls whom he
had received present from his minister
in Constantinople, and this was thought
quite moderate on his part, and did not call
forth any special outcry from the British
matrOn; but now it is rumOred that beside
this Circassian, to which he confesses, the
Shah has got one or two specimens from
the home harem going about with him,
dressed up in Persian mems clothes. This
information, however. is not strictly
reliable. The Shah apparently does
not consider a long list of wives
altogether without its unpleasant
points, and / have it as fact from
the grand old mans son. Herbert Glad
stone. that the Shah actually did say, when
informed that the grand old man was on
the point of celebrating his golden we'd
ding, that he was not certain but that it
was better TO live fifty years with one
woman than one with fifty women. That
remark, by the way, is not original with
the Shah, but perhaps he may have rein
vented it.
In reply to q question asked by Lord
Wolseley the Shah has said that the things
which pleased him most in England were
the flowers and the conjuring-hardly what
the East, where flowers and conjuring, es-
pecially the latter, are commonly supposed
TO flourish far beyond anything that we
have imagined.

LONDON, July 21.-General Boulanger,
Count Dillon and NJ. RochefOrt have issued
the following manifesto:
To the French ElectOrs-We have dis
dained to reply to the absurd calumnies
concOcted by Ministers who have been con-
victed of peculatiOn. Our abstentiOn from
this Odious comedy is now justified by the
indignant repulsion of attempts to extort
from officers of the army lying denunciations
of their former chief. These subOrners
of witnesses have not hesitated to
employ the taxpayers money to obtain
false dispositions from Jail birds in their
very cells at Mazas. These are the misera-
BILE prevaricatOrs who accuse their for
mer Minister of War of corruption.
Public disgust has already condemned,
and the justice of the country
will speedily overtake these malefac tors.
They appealed to the penal code, but the
outcome of their infamous Vaccinations
was that they could bring absolutely moth
ing against us. If they could have OBJ
tanned the most trivial proof they
would not thus have risked the as
size court by negotiating with forgers.
1t is for you, dear fellow -countrymen, to
judge between us and these thieves. We
await with confidence your sentence, from

An Aged German Lady Leaves ALI Her Proper

NASHVILLE. Tenn, July 21.-The most
extraordinary will ever made was probated
here yesterday. Mrs. Mary Ann Schaub,
an aged German lady, who has lived in
Nashville for the past sixty years, died of
old age, at her home in the northern SUBJ
urbs of the city, where she has lived alone
for nearly half century. She has no kin
in the world of whom anyone knows, and
had surrounded herself by a number OF
dogs and cats. She had accumulated
a handsome property, valued at
about $4,000, and this she leaves in trust
for two of her favorite dogs. The animals
are of the commonest breed. She provides
that sufficient sum all be reserved from
her personality to maintain these dogs in
comfort as long as they live, and especially
orders one bed and clothing for their oc-
cupsncy. A young lady, whom she adopted
some years ago. is made secondary benefi-
ciary, upon the condition that she will live
in the house and care for these dogSfor q

DISASTROUS FLOODS.
Great Destruction Wrought by the Breaking

Great Destruction Wrought by the Breaking
of a Dam on the Hooking Canal.
LANCASTER, o., July 21.-One of the most
disastrous storms ever known in the Hook
ing valley eliminated, yesterday, in the
breaking of Sharp's dam, at Sugar Grove,
on the Hooking canal. The dam held in
store large body of water that supplied
the lower levels of the canal. The heavy
rains had filled the reservoir TO the banks,
when suddenly the dam gave way, and
with mighty roar the sea of water went
out through the valley, taking with
it every movable object. For twenty
miles the soil is plowed up. Trees,
fences. crops and hundred of head of live
stock have been swept away. No lives
were slost because the people had taken
warningand because the houses are situated
on the bluff that OverlOoks the valley. But
the canal for miles is a wreck and thou
sands OF feet of railroad track are washed
away.
At Athens the Cincinnati. Washington &
Baltimore and Hooking Valley railroad
tracks are carried away and trains will be
delayed several days. Roads and bridges
are annihilated, and the whole valley for
miles looks like dry water-course. Com
petent judges place the loss in the hum
dreds of thousands of dollars.

Peculiar Ceremonies Attending the Marriage
of an Indian and a Pretty HoOsier Girl.
Special to the Indianapolis journal.


RossvILLE, Ind, July 21.-The most novel
wedding ceremony that probably ever
occurred in this State was performed here
last night. The contracting parties were
John Deerfoot and Alice Van Camp. Mr..
Deerfoot, whose Indian name is Sawadis,
is a full-blood Cherokee. who is travelling
as an athlete with DR.. White Clouds Indian
company. He is about twenty years old,
and fine looking IndiaH was Oorn and
reared in Tahlequa, 1. T., and is an intelli-
gent young man. The bride is the daughter
of VIM. Van Camp, of Clinton county. She
is very modest. good-looking young lady
of nineteen years; was born in Wabash,
and removed TO this county about five
years ago. Her parents consented to her
marriage, as the young husband is un-
Objectionable, and is reputed quite well-to-
do. The couple first met at Frankfort
while DR.. White Clouds company were at
that place, the young man boarding at the
house where the girl was working, and an
heart for her dusky Indian wOOer. The
course of true love bore a horseshoe on It's
bosom, and warded away all evil currents.
The ceremony, was. performed by Els.
quire K. A. Clark, before an audience of
between two and three thousand people.
DR.. White Cloud had advertised it far and
wide on his medicine bills. and people
gathered in from miles around. Many un-
derstanding that the wedding was to occur
In the daytime gathered in before noon,
and the afternoon witnessed, perhaps, five
thousand people In town. They were en-
tertained. as the announcement stated they
would be, by Indian performances of all
sorts. Promptly at O'Clock the bride and
groom made their appearance on an out
door stage, and were married according to
the civil laws, after which the Indian mar
rage ceremony was performed by DIR.
White Cloud, who is an adopted Indian, as
sisted by Red Cloud and Chief Eagle Elk,
and his squaw. This was. perhaps, the
most entertaining part of the programme.
The pledges made by the Squaw were re-
cited and consented to in English The
bride promised to take care of the groom's
tent and carry the same; to follow him on
the hunt in the forest. and to guard his
hunting implements while he was on the
war-path: in token of which she stuck a
stick in the earth, and gave her vow that
she would be true to him until his body re-
was taken, and also be faithful to him in
the happy hunting-grounds. His vows
were made in the Indian tongue. After the
ceremony the groom presented his bride
with a buck-skin. in token that he would
always provide her with the best bed the
earth could afford. Then there was dis
play of small fireworks, part of which
caught fire prematurely, and carried dis
may into the crowd that were in the way.
Fortunately no one was hurt. The strange
lywedded pair received congratulations
from many, and nice cake from the ladies
OF the WOman's Relief Corps of this place.
