Last Saturday was the heaviest
rain storm ever witnessed in this
part of the country. 1t began in
the morning and poured down un-
ceasingly till near the middle of the
afternoon, but between twelve and
two was the hardest. Itcame down
in solid sheets and it seemed that

open and pouring down the liquid
deluge on an already water soaked
and well diluted terra frma. We
never saw so much ram in half
day before, and begun to think We

streets, paths and roads ran SOLID
sheet of water, and in very short
time the creeks were booming and
all out OF bank and on a big bust
generally, without waiting for the
4th. Grass and grain fields were
beat down and washed out and n
great many gardens ruined cellars
filled with water fences and brid-
ges swept away and roads so wash
ed out as to be impossible in many
places thousands Of dollars damage
done in about an hours time, then
the waters fell as rapidly af they
had risen, and the people were left
TO repair the work of destruction
and bewail the loss of many hard
days work swept away so ruthlessly.
The T., X. and Il. railroad was
damaged several hundred dollars

Saturday noon until Tuesday even
