reports which are now coming in show
! the damage heavy and widespread.

house on bottom land is washed away
At daylight this morning a torrent of
water five feet deep and nearly two
miles wide swept down the valley car
rying every thing before it. The loss of
cattle and stock is very great.
A farmer named Larson, living three
miles from Redwing, carried two chill
dren from the food, but his wife and
two more children were drowned.
A family named Withridge is missing,
and as their house is destroyed, it is
believed they were all lost.

two mil dams, q mill. the station-house
and a large section of track. The dam
age at Chatfield was light,

Either Demon or a Maniac.
FORT SMITH. Ark, Dec. 13-About
o'clock this morning A. G. Caldwell.
prominent farmer, was driving home
from this city, when about four miles
out he was met by man on foot armed
with a shotgun. The footman asked
him if either of his mules would ride
and Caldwell told him no. About this
time an old man came along riding
pony. The footman ordered him to get
of, but he did not comply, and the man
shot him twice. blowing the whole top
of his head off,
The murderer then mounted the old
mans pony and rode about three miles
when the animal gave out and he aban-
doned it. He then caught young man
driving an empty wagon and jumping
into it he told the young fellow to drive
for his life or he would kill him. TAX
ing the whip from the driver he whipped
up the team and ran the mules to Jenny
Lind, distance of three or four miles.
Arriving there the fiend went to the
store of DR.. L. D. Stewart and seeing
several men about the place drove them
off with his gun, entered the store and
shot Stewart down. He then walked
out, but returned and shot Stewart
again, though it is said the first shot
killed him.
From Stewards the murderer went to
the house of John Miller, a quarter Of
a mile distant Finding Miller some
distance from the house he shot and
MORALLY wounded him.
The butcher then proceeded to the
house and shot Mrs. Miller in the stom-
ach and then killed Mrs Miller's
daughter, after which he blew his own
brains out, just as posse OF men who
had been summoned, came up to him.
While in the wagon with the young
m an the fend told him his name was
Bill Joplin.
Joplin had been at work at Jenny
Lind. where he fell in love with Miss
Miller, whom he murdered. He was in
the city yesterday with the girl for the
purpose of marrying her, but her father
followed and prevented the ceremony,
taking his daughter home with him.
Joplin followed them out later and.

do with breaking up the match, killed

She had dreaded the sight of wagons
and people moving her goods, and, as
she entered the gate, was astonished to
see no one. Only Rollo, the old dog, lay
basking in the last rays of the setting

they entered, cried gleefully: why,

just as she had left it: the family Bible
still lay on its seat. but on it lay some
thing she had not left there, and as she
picked it up she read her own name on
the big envelope. With fingers trem-
bling SO she could hardly use them, she
tore it open and read:
