PEOPLE HOMELESS.

MEI BOURNE FLoDhD AND THoUsANl S
OF PEOPLE DRIVEN FROM HOME.
MELBOURNE, July 14.--The heavy,
incessant rains which have been pre-
vailing here for some time past have
caused a serious overflow of the Yarra
river.
The streets Of this city have been
inundated by the overflow, which has
not been equalled since 1868. All the
railroads are blocked, aud many of the
streets in the suburbs are entirely sub
merged.
Thousands of people are homeless,
and the misery resulting from the in
undation is already widespread.

WORLDS FAIR REGATTA.
II Is Possible That One VIII be Held
at Chicago In 500.

at Chicago In 500.
Richard X, Fox has received several
communications from prominent oars
men asking him to put up purse for
an international Exposition Regatta
to be held in conjunction with the
worlds fair at Chicago in 1898.
In an interview about the subject Mr..
Fox said: "If / was certain that the
best oarsmen in England Australia,
Canada and the United States would
row, would arrange a regatta that
would eclipse the International Cen
tennial regatta held on the Schuyll1ill
river at Philadelphia, in 1876. An in
ternational single scull race would not
attract half the interest unless James
Stansbury, Peter Kemp, and John Nc
Lean, of Australia, consented TO meas
ure spruces with VIM. O'Connor, the
champion; John Teemer, Jake Gaudaur
and Edward Hanhn. A single-scull
international race would only last two
days, because the trial heats could be
decided ono day, and the final the next.
The plan am thinking over, and l
shall wait to hear from the oarsmen in
this country and Australia before / de-
eide upon program, is to give purse
for an international single, double and
four-oared race for the championship
of the world. This would not only
make a very attractive program, but it
would greatly assist to boom up, not
only single-scull professional racing,
but double and four-oared racing. At
present l think the "Police Gazette"
International Worlds Fair Regatta, to
be held in Chicago in 1898, is almost a
certainty, for all the home oarsmen are
ready, and it spossible Kemp and Stans-
bury, the Australian champion, and
also Nelson and Matterson may decide
to enter"

COLUMBIAN CELEBRATION
Practically Assured Local
Event for '92.
The Meeting in Roe X Island Tu, sday
Nigat-A Great Opportunity for
TWIN City Advancement.

The twin city Fourth of July Colum,
bisn celebration in 1892 is practically as.
sured.
That there will be joint demons.ra-
ton is conceded in both cities and now
only remains to consider and arrange as
to details. The meeting of the two
business mems associations in this civ
next Tuesday night IS expected to do
much in the direction of this end. The
first point is of course to formally decide
upon joint celebration on the Fourth
of July, also something of its nature.
Then will come suggestions as to some of
its features, among which are the silver
brick planting ceremonies on the compile
ton of the pavement between the two
cities, although it is barely possible this
msy be made the feature of a separate
observance in which the two cities will
join hands. 1t would however form an
imposing part of the celebration on July
Fourth, and Notwithstanding that the
pavement in both cities may be compile
ted before that time, IS indeed it is earn
estly to be hoped it will be, the formal
brick laying exercises can be postponed
until that date.
There have already been number of
suggestions made as to the nature of the
Columbian celebration. One plan, AM
very excellent one il is. is that the
morning be devoted to a grand industrial
and historical parade. made up of bands
of music and floats representative of
the manufacturing and CONNER
cial enterprises of the two cites.
