Lookout For the Circus.

Mr.. James f. Cooper, sole owner and
proprietor of the Adam Forepaugh shows,
is very DESTROYS to have the great,
brilliant and glittering professional dis
play of the shows witnessed by everybody,
with pleasure and profit to all. on the
morning of exhibition. He does not
want the great event marred by au IN
pleasant feature or the slightest accident.
and to that end calls attention to the fact
that the parade has, in addition to the
several bands of music and drum CORPS
Interspersed through it, long herds Of
elephants, camels and other animals. led
through tie streets, and as it is vel
known that horses not familiar with music
and herds of animals are liable to get
scared ifnot properly guarded, he desires
the authorities and all others to assist his
force (he has several in advance along
the route of procession, to see that no
horses are left alone and to call attention
of owners, etc., to exercise a little care
with their animals, particularly if they
are liable, as many are. to brighten at
unusual objects. 1t is a very rare thing
for any such accidents to occur, but AN
vunoo OF procaution is worth a pound of
cure, and a hint to the wise generally
~sufices.

ASSAULTED WITH A LAMP.
A Drug store Clerk Roughly Used b,
Porter.

A fight occurred Tuesday night in
Hoyt's drug store between J. A. Weeks,
the clerk and G. W. Pierson, the colored
porter.
Weeks version OF the story is that he
was sitting in the rear OF the store with
his feet elevated on a chair when the
porter came along and jerked the chair
out from under his feet. He told Pierson
to go away and leave him alone.
The porter had an unliGhted lamp in
his hand and did not bulge. Weeks
started to get up and leave and just as he
was getting out of his chair the porter
struck him with the lamp over the left
eye. He naturally recoiled from the
blow and turned partially around. when
the porter grabbed both Of his hands be-
hind his back and held him fast. He
struggled to get away and wore himself
out and fell to the floor. The porter then
left.
Mr.. Hoyt was at dinner when the
trouble occurred and Weeks was lett alone
in the store. The wound IN his face was
a bad one and bled profusely, and while
he was washing it a friend came In and
was sent for DIR. Hunt. The cash over
the eye made by the glass lamp is about
Two inches long and will probably leave a
bad scar.
Weeks says that he did not like the
porter as he was humored by the pro-
prietor and was inclined to be surly, 80
he had determined some time ago to have
nothing to say to him.
The porter was not at the store yester-
day as Mr.. Hoyt says that he told him to
keep away for fear that Weeks would kill
him. Weeks is a young fellow who does
not look at all ferocious and Mr.. Hoyt's
fear Tor the %negro's life is PROBABLY I'M
founded. Mr.. Hoyt takes the porter
part as he considers the clerk was to blame
in the trouble and last night told the lat
ter that he did not need his services any
longer. Weeks intends to bring criminal
proceedings against the porter for as
sault.

California, from the Mexican frontier

the ultra Mediterranean sort. In Fresno,
the heat rose to ia dogs. in the shade;

north of San Francisco to 1Os dogs. San
Francisco itself escaped, thanks to the

inland, thought itself lucky to get off
with 100. -Philadelphia Times

Company F of Douglas, with twenty
six men in the ranks, came il from Doug

ME to attend the encampment. They
were met at the depot by Company B and
with band playing marched through the
streets and were escorted to the armory.
A large crowd lined the streets to see
the boys go by and many complimentary
remarks was made as to their appearance.
Company f was accompanied by the
regimental band. The visiting company,
considering the small amount of drilling
they have had, made a very good appear
ance. They were attired in the fatigue
uniform and could easily be taken for
regulars if it was not for the freedom of
manner and their easy bearing. The men
average much larger in size than the
Cheyenne men. They will accompany

the early train.

A GREAT FLOOD.
The Cumberland River Rising at
an Alarming Rate.
Some Tive Hundred Families at Nashville
Drowned Out. =


The Cumberland river is several feet
above the danger line at. Nashville,
Tenn, and is rising at an alarming
rate, experienced river men predicting
that the greatest flood ever known will
be there by Tuesday night. Already
over five hundred families have been
drowned out by the water and much
property destroyed owing to the sud-
denness of the rise. Street car traffic has
been abandoned on several lines. The
gauge at 10 o'clock Sunday night
shows 46 $40 feet, which is
seven feet below the disastrous
flood of 1882, when half of the
city was submerged and property val
ued at hundreds of thousands destroyed.
Reports from up-river sustain the pre-
diction that the present food will bo
more disastrous than that of 1882 The
severest rain storm for years has pre-
vailed almost throughout the entire
state of Mississippi during the
past thirty-six hours. Five inches
of rain fell at Vicksburg, and the heav-
lest rainfall ever known is reported
from many points. The rainfall in
Memphis, Tenn, and section of the
south for the past few days, is unprece-
dented. Nearly five inches has fallen
in Memphis during the past forty-elght
hours. Specials from the adjacent
country report the heavy rain as gen.
.eral The entire lower part of Canton,
Miss, is under water, and all trains on
the Illinois Central road are delayed.

beer had previously been placed on the
abstainer's lips, and when the attend
ants retired he could not resist the
temptation to drink the contents Of the
bottle. After draining it, marked
change came over the faster, and he an
nounced his readiness to partake Of
food, which was then furnished.
