NASHVILLE, May 81, 1S9


This city last night reminded many,
no doubt, of the stormy days of the late
civil war. We had soldiers on duty,
armed with guns, bayonets and pistols.
the whole police force stood on the
Square and Market Street for three
hours, ready at a moments warning to
let go deadly missile.
The occasion for the excitement was
a mob, headed by twenty five or thirty
men from Chattanooga, ,.who came here
to mob Frank Weems, a negro who az
tempted to rape Mrs. Mavity, Thursday
morning, near that place. 1t was not
the well organized one that was here a
few days ago, and indeed appeared to
have no one as steersman who knew
what to do.
The city authorities and officers about
the Jail heard talk of mob assembling
in the city some time yesterday, and de-
termined, if they could, to prevent an
other lynching. In order to avoid
bloodshed at the Jail the prisoner was
removed, it is said, to Memphis.
The mob assembled on the Square at
the head of Front Street, at 10 o'clock,
and after some disturbance appointed

SIOUX CITY'S DISASTER.
Twenty FIVE Lives LOst..MilliOns of
Dollars in Property Lost.


SIOUX CITY, IA, May 10. - FLOYD
River is susiding into its banks, and a
rough estimate of the loss from yester-
days flood is possible. The loss of life
will reach twenty five, and perhaps
higher, as number of persons are re-
ported missing. Three bodies were re-
covered today, those of A. G. Ander-
son and Mrs. Henderson and her baby.
The pecuniary loss will be heavy. D.
+. Hedges, President of the Stock
Yards Company, estimated the loss to
the stock yards and packing interests at
from S45O,OOO to $5O0,OOO. The loss to
houses and furniture of residents in the
flooded district will aggregate about
S75O,OOO, and the stocks of goods dam
aged 100000. The damage to the city
in pavements, &c., will foot up over
100000.
Up the Floyd for twenty miles the
Sioux City and Northwestern and Illi-
nois Central tracks are built on en-
bankments, and are washed out or
damaged. The loss of all the railroad
companies is estimated at from $780,
600 to $1,000,000. The total loss may
reach $2,OOO,OOO.
Some heroic scenes were witnessed
in the attempts to save the unhappy
victims of the flood. AT the Omaha
bridge the West family met disaster.
Mrs. West and her little five year old
girl were unable to get away from the
flood in time. The father and two of
the children were safe, and the rescu-
ing party was returning for Mrs. West
and her children when the waves swept
the house away. They foated down
the roaring current until the bridge
was reached. An engineer succeeded
in saving the woman, but her strength
failed her and she was compelled to re-
linquish her hold on her child. With
despairing cry of Mamma! ~ the
child disappeared beneath the waves.
At the manufacturing suburb of
Leeds, nine persons are known to be
drowned. Four were drowned at
Springdale. Observers on the high
bridge counted fifteen bodies that swept
under it. Matt Roe, an old sailor saved
twenty eight lives. A woman who
managed to wade to box car was
there seized with labor pains and gave
birth to a child, and two hours later
was rescued. Awoman named Hinton
and three children were drowned in
their own house. Two Swedish families
were swept away.

which Haynes shot Brownlow with
pistol, wounding him slightly. In after

TERRIBLE HURRICANE.
Great Loss of Life---Immense DeStruc.
tiOn of Property.

Great Loss of Life---Immense Destruc-
ton of Property.
Advices just received from Mauritius
state that a hurricane, unprecedented
in violence, passed over that island on
April 30, causing immense damage to
shipping. Half Of Port Louis, the cap
ital city, was devastated. Houses were
blown down, gigantic trees uprooted,
and that part of the town wiped out of
existence. The loss of life was appall-
ing. The roar of the gale was deafen-
ing, and the people rushed to and fro
in aimless confusion. Rain fell in tor
rents. Never before in the history of
the island has such warning of the
elements been known.
The exact number of dead is not
known. Half the crops of sugar, rice,
coffee and pepper have been utterlyruin-
ed, and the loss in this direction is ex-
tremely heavy.
Mauritius has always been noted for
its violent and destructive hurricanes,
but this one exceeds in destructiveness
any hitherto known. The island is in
the Indian Ocean, and is well known
as the scene of the famous story of
Paul and Virginia.
1t is not in the power of words to de-
scribe the scene. Taking advantage
from previous gales, everything posi-
BILE was done to minimize the threaten
ed damage, but when at last the gale
burst all the precautions proved of no
avail. The shipping in the harbor sent
down their topmasts, extra anchors
were put down, cables were paid out,
and everything was made snug. Had
it been an ordinary hurricane the YES
sells might have successfully ridden out
the storm. But so fierce was the storm
that cables parted like packthreads, and
the vessels were dashed upon the coral
reefs that are SO dangerous to naviga-
tion about the island. -
Eleven vessels were driven upon the
rocks and were destroyed entirely or
are greatly damaged.

committee to call on Sheriff Hill to
demand the delivery of the negro
Weems. The committee was permitted
to search the jail, and was disappointed
at not finding the prisoner. Being sat
isfed that he was not in the jail, they
reported the result of their investiga-
ton to the mob, who began to howl
and yell, "At the station house." "On

Chief of Police Clack sounded the riot
alarm at II o'c ock, which summoned
all the police to the station. They
come quick and fast, and with guns
and bayonets. Mr.. Clack informed the
mob they should not invade his quar-
ters or the city property, and that the
man they wanted was not in the STA
tion, and furthermore, he would defend
the property at whatever sacrifice.
This warning was not needed, and in a
few minutes the mob undertook to force
their way down Market Street, but on
approaching the street they were met
WITH resistance from the police, who
stood firm as a Napoleon guard, and
were soon repulsed at the point of
the bayonet. AT 1 O'Clock the mob
became satisfied that Weems was
not at the station, and dispersed This
morning they are securing the city and
country around.
In the excitement and effort to reach
the station, rocks were thrown from
the crowd atthe police. Mr.. Clack and
two others received wounds, but none
were serious. X.

THE JUNE MAGAZINES.

Scribner's Magazine for June contin-
ues the series on The Poor in Great
Cities, which is attracting the widest
attention with an article on Life in
New York Tenement Houses, as Seen
by a City Missionary, by Rev. William
I. Elsing, who for nine years has work
ed in the tenement house district in
close association with all phases of that
life. Mr.: Elsing's article aims to rep,
| resent the average Of life in the tene
ment houses, and does not give false
impression by accommodating all the
| startling incidents which have come
under his eye in the past nine years.
The bright and wholesome side of life
is represented with the dark-the home
life which is made possible even in the
dingiest quarters by the simple virtues
OF sobriety and economy, the poor
helping themselves and those who are
poorer, and the gradual improvement
which well organized effort is making
in many directions The illustrations
| have been drawn by the skilfull artist,
Charles Broughton, who represents
what he has actually seen.

Queer Stories Of Lucky Miners.

A few of the many stories that are
told of miners luck will enable the
reader to understand why and how the
heads of whole communities may be
turned in mining regions. Jim Whit
latch, the discovery of the Whitlatch
Union mine, near Helena, lead a typi-
cal Western miners life. The mine in
question is now owned in England, and
has produced $50, 100000 in gold. Af-
ter Jim Whitlatch had sold the proper
ty for 81 100000 he went to New York
ito make as much money as Wander
pilt." He was rare treat to Wall
Street, which fattened on him, and in
one year let him go with only the
clothes on his back. He returned to
Montana, began prospecting again, and
discovered mine for which he got
$250,0O0. He went to Chicago to rival
Potter Palmer in wealth, and returned
just az he did from New York-hat
strapped, as he would have expressed
it. He made still another fortune, and
went to San Francisco, where he died
poor man. Another Lewis and Clarke
County mine-the Drum Lummon-
provides another such story. 1t was
discovered by an Irish immigrant
named Thomas Cruise. Although he
owned it, he could not get sack Of
-four on credit. He sold it to an Eng
lish syndicate for $1,500,000. But he
remains one of the wealthy men of
Helena.
There is an ex-State Senator in Bea-
yer Head County who OWLS very rich
mine, the ore yielding 500 to the ton
net. He is California forty miner,
who came as prospector to Montana,
and since discovering his mine has
lived upon it in peculiar way. He
has no faith in banks. He says his
money is safest in the ground. When
he has spent what money he has, he
takes out a wagon load of ore, ships it
to Omaha, sells it, lives on the return
until he needs another wagon load.
There is queer story concerning the
Spotted Horse Mine, in Fergus County.
1t was found by PA. Meadow, who sold
it to Governor Hauser and A. M. Hol-
der for S5O0,0 three years ago. They
paid large sum down in cash, and the
other payments were to come out of the
ground. The ore was in pockets, each
of which was easily exhausted. What
ever was taken out went to Meadow,
who got about 100000. Then the pur-
chasers abandoned it, on the advice of
experts, and Mr.. Meadow took hold of
it. He found the vein, over which rails
had been laid for a mining car. He
has taken out 100000, and it is still
good mine. One of these children of
luck came to Helena without money,
picked out wife, who was then poor
seamstress, hired hotel, and invited
the town to the wedding. The amount
of champagne that flowed at that we'd
ding was fabulous, and it is said that
the whole town reeled to bed that night.
