The Streets of Gainesville, Tex, Be-
come Rivers.
ST. LOUIS, April 25.-A special from
Gainesville. Tex, to the Post-Dispatch,
says it has been raining almost constantly
since last Monday night, and at 8 o'clock
last night cloudburst struck the city, last
ing four hours, deluging the town and
county to the depth of seveSsl feet. The
water ran in great rivers through the
streets, in many places three feet deep. A
small creek left its banks and swept away nus
merous small dwellings. The FIRE alarm was
sounded at II O'clock, and the department
and hundreds of people turned out and
helped in rescuing families residing on the
low lands along the creek. The loss TO
property will run up into the thousands.
The whole country is deluged and crops are
certainly ruined. The Galveston and Kan
sas City Santa Fe train is water bound six
miles south of Gainesville and the passen-
gers were rescued in boats.
