4 TERRIFIC STORM.
indianapolis Visited by One OF Unusual
Severity.

INDIANAPOLIS, ISD., August Gone of the
most terrific rain-storms in the history Of
indianapolis occurred yesterday. The banks
Of the State ditch and Pogues run soon filed
and the water spread 10 the adjacent terri
tory. In the business part OF the town gut
ters and sewers were entirely inadequate 10
the work Of carrying OF the water Many
cellars and Easements were filed and the loss
to goods will be up into tie thousands Of
dollars
The overflow Of Pogues run was accompa-
MED by the loss Of al least two lives. Fred
King. a thirteen-year-old youngster being
dared by his companions, waded out too far
and was caught in current and swept way.
Another lad named Oliver Eckel, who was as
sisting saving some lumber, was sucked into
o sewer and was seen no moro. Neither body
was recovered, and both were doubtless swept
Of into the river.
The heavy rainfall was accompanied by ter
rife thunder and lightning A thunderbolt
struck OlsOn's bolt works Just after tho en-
ployes had commenced work l. n. kimber-
lin. book-keeper; John J. Blackwell, foreman,
aud Charles lynn. a mechanic, were Knocked
senseless The latter was at first thought TO
he killed outright but al three subsequently
recovered. Reports from the townships show
that considerable amount Of stock was killed
by lightning and several barns were burned.

the magnifcence. The vessels both
British and French, wero splendidly
decorated while their armaments were IN the
best possible order. Sailors lined the yards
and officers in gold lace and brilliant
Uniform were conspicuous amid the moro
sober attire of the rank and file. Queen
Victoria looked brighter and happier than
during the kaisers visit, perhaps because
she had recovered from the slight cold that
then troubled her. In military and naval
natter Queen Victoria IS never perfunctory.
She always shows genuine interest IN
battallOns and battle ships and she made
many innuiries as to the French vessels, their
commanders and armament. while the Duke
of Edinburgh and the Duke OF Connaught
were not the less inquisitiys Owing prOba-
