FLOODS CAUSE GREAT LOSSES.

Traffic the Rock Island Road Sus-
pended-Peopls Take to the Hills.
CHICAGO, ILL.,, May Grain storms
E,lthout a parallel in recent years have
prevailed throughout the Western coun-
try for the last two days, and the
amount of damage done is enormous.
Traffic on the Rock Island road, be-
tween Joliet and the Mississippi River,
has been suspended, owing to the num-
erous washonts along that portion of the
line, with the result that the entire
system is practically tied up. All
through trains coming East have to stop
at Davenport and Rock Island, and the
West bound trains did not attempt to
move out of Chicago before this morn
ing. At Joliet hundreds of families
had 10 quit their houses and 60 to the
bluffs, fearful that the dam would go
out. The factories have l to 8 feet Of
water in them. In Ottumwa, Ia, hous-
es have been flooded, railroad tracks
washed out, and a portion of the new
bridge carried away. AT Lansing, Mich,
q brick building has collapsed, owing to
Its being undermined bv the rains.

HIGH WATER in HOOsIERDoM.
The Little Village OF Goshen Under Water
Heavy Losses.


GOSHEN, Ind, May THE Elkhart
River is higher than ever before known,
and is still rising. 1t is now half way
up the temporary embankments which
had been placed on the approaches to
the dam, and grave fears are enter
tanned as to the latter's safety.
The Cincinnati, Wabash q Michig gan
bridge was moved by the water,
and the Michigan branch of the
Lake Shore is in such condition that no
trains will be run for three or four days.
Many factories have their lower floors
flooded, and all the factories are shut
down on account of high water, throw
ing T. large number of men out of EN-.
ployment. AT Hammond the late rains
nave swollen the Grand Calumet River
to such an extent that the flats are COM
retely inundated. The farming coun-
try in the neighborhood of the Little
L<,umet River is also under water.
SOUTH BEND, Ind, May THE st.
Joseph River has reached dangerous
height and is doing great damage. Fac
tories dependent upon water power are
al! idle, most of them being 'hree feet
unuer water. he west apron of the dam
here has been swept away, and. as it
fl, ated down the river, it nearly
wrecked the Water Street bridge.

Seven Bodies Taken from the AtChison
Railway Wreck.
Fort MADISON, Ia, May 6.-The scene
of the Santa Fe Railroad wreck pre-
scented fearful appearance to-day.
Scattered about in confusion was the
debris of the cars, a! Of them having
been completely demolished with the
exception of the last sleeping car, which
remained on the track. The seven
dead bodies were laid out at an under
taking shop. The woman who was
killed was found to be Mrs. &. Bausch,
of San Bernardino, Cal. Her corpse
was badly bruised and covered
with blood. Mrs. Bausch's baby had
evidently been drowned, as no marks of
violence were found. Many of the pas
sengers who escaped left this morning
for Chicago on the local passenger train.

A REMARKABLE LETTER.
A Prominent Professional Mans Extraol
binary Statement.
IN. Y. S,tn)

IN Y. Sun)
To the Editor: SIR-As my name and
face have appeared in your paper and
the public prints lately, and as many of
my professional brethren are wonder
ing at it, feel it only Just that l should
make an explanation. The statement
published over my name was made ten
years ago, after long and mature investi-
CATION, and | have never changed my
mind as to the facts then stated. At
that time | said, as Il physician, that /
believed Warmers Safe Cure was the
best of all known preparations for the,
troubles 1t was advocated to cure, and
| sag so still. | know it is considered
the proper thing for the medical profess
sion to decry proprietary and other ad-
vertised articles; but why should they
do so? AS the late DR.. j. G.. Holland,
writing over his own name in Scribner's
Monthly, said:
1t is a fact that many of the best pro-
prietary medicines of the day are more
successful than many physicians, and
used in actual medical practice; when,
however, any person knowing their vir-
tue and foreseeing their popularity Sc
cures and advertlses them, in the opin-
ion of the bigoted all virtues went out
of them"
DR.. Holland was an educated physi-
clan, an unprecedented observer, and he
spoke from broad and unusual expert
ence. Proprietary medicines should
not be decried. The evidences of their
value are overwhelming. l have seen
patients recover from gravel, infamma-
ton of the bladder and Bright's disease
after using Warmers Safe Cure, even
when all other treatment had failed.
| make this frank and outspoken
statement in the interests of humanity
and because l know it to be true. 1
trust tor the same reason you will give
it to the public. especially,

The Decorative Craze.

Under the rule and inspiration of the
art decorator, curious confusion and
introversion of ideas has come to pass
Instead of room being the reflection of
the person who mostly lives therein.
(which should make the sight of room.
even more than that of persons friends,
be true index of character), the room
is now looked upon as the ruling guide.
The owner must live up, dress up, to the
room; she must try to harmonic with
the room instead of her room being
brought into harmony with her. In
fact, she is like person who has bought
a particular picture frame and must
strive to find some picture that will fill
it fairly well.
A woman's room should be her frame
which completes and perfects the picture
of her individuality; but in the schemes
Of the art decorator she is a mere acci-
dent of no account, and he would design
a pompadour boudoir for Lady Macbeth
or a Greek music room for Becky Sharp,
wherein to sing Yvette Guilbert's latest
success to the Marquis of Steyne, with
out qualm ruffling his serene self sat
isfaction. The genre atelier was one of
the modes of this craze for domestic
decoration, which was perhaps the most
ludicrous, when estimable souls who
knew no more of painting than cat
does of case of pistols thought it neces-
sary to establish easels about their rooms,
and even went so far as to hang palettes
ready ''set' for painting on their walls.
