BANKS. EATEN AWAY.
The Resistless, Muddy Fluid Hun.
CRY for Prey.

LAWRENCE, Kan, May 13.-The Kaw
river is so high that the back water be-
low the dam is rapidly eating away the
bank, and the Union Pacific freight
depot is in danger OF being washed
away. The water main which supplies
North Lawrence broke this evening,
and the town is without water.
LEAvENwoRTII, Kan., May 13.-The
Missouri is above the danger line and
there is now danger that it will cut
through the point and leave the city
half mile inland. This would make
the Rock Island bridge useless; only the
Union Pacific and Missouri Pacific roads
are prepared to do any business now,
the others simply trying to run trains
when the weather will permit.
TOPEKA, KAN, May 13.-The Russian
colony OH the north side of town have
been forced to leave for higher ground
and their entire possessions are under
water. The river is the highest it has
ever been since 1855 when it carried the
bridge away at this place,
OMAHA, May 13.-The Missouri river
is rapidly rising, and torrent of mud
is madIy rushing down towards its
mouth. At East Omaha it is cutting
away the banks, and it is
feared that the stream will seek its old
channel along the Nebraska bluffs. If
it should, great damage would be done.
The owners of East Omaha believe,
however. that the rip-rap will protect
their city, which has been built in the
last two years.

riety Of the costumes. perfection OF
training and spectacular effect, The
Gathering of the Clans" at the Metro
pOfitan opera house last evening. under
the direction of Prof. j. A. Walker, of
Aberdeen, Scotland, was one of the
most Impressive spectaces ever pre-
sented on local stage. The man who,
in three short months, from raw ma
terial, has trained 200 children to dance
well-nlgh perfectly some of the most
intricate national dances of foreign
countries, is genius in all that the
word implies.
There was not vacant seat in the
house, and long before the curtain rose
the standing room only" sign fiaunted
its disheartening folds in the faces of
those who crowded anXiously into the
lobby, only to be told they were too late
to witness the performance they had
looked forward to so eagerly for weeks.
These will yet be given. a chance to wit
ness the wonderful dancing of these
little ones, for the pageant will be re-
peated next Tuesday evening at the
regular prices of the Metropo.itan, by
an almost unanimous request Of the
hundreds turned away.
AS all overture, the orchestra (KleiSt'S)
played the bonny Scottish airs that are
ever so dear to the heart of true Scot,
no matter under what flag he may be
soiourning. AS the last strain died
away DR.. William DinwOOdie, president
of st. Andrews society, appeared be-
fore the curtain, and his popularity was
attested 10y instant applause. He SAID:
Ladies and Gentlemen: have duty to
perform tonight that recognize to he more
gratitude to the merchants and citizens OF st
Paul for their patronage. l shall not offer
any apology for any trifiing mistakes that
may be made by the young people who will
entertain you this evening, but you must re-
member that these are St Paul girls, from
the families of your neighbors, who, up to
three months ago, scarcely knew dancing
step; but who, under the marvellous tutelaSe
of Prof Walker. have reached such Stage OF
proficiency that we can promise you one OF
the most unique performances ever given on
this or any other stage. ! retire Ia their
honor"

voices were raiseu in that bulwark OF
