Observer Lyons Analysis of the

Forecast Official Lyons last night is
sued the following bulletin of interest
in this connection:
For the week ended yesterday the average
rainfall reported from the watersheds of the
Minnesota and upper Mississippi rivers was
three inches. The greater portion fell on
last Wednesday morning. continued,
though slow rise, is indicated in the river in
the vicinity of St Paul TO about Tuesday.
A comparison Of The rainfall OF last week
with that for the week ending May 4, 1883,
and the stages of the water during the
spring Of that year and the present may be
interesting. The data are appended: April
Z, 1883, ice moved out of river here with
stage of water of 3S feet; thence it rose ra D.
est stage since April 9, 1881, was registered,
being a. feet. That water resulted from the
sudden melting of the snow of the long and
severe winters of 1887 and 1883, From the IA
stage there was a steady fall until the 29th
of that month, when 10.3 feet was registered.
Then heavy rains commenced over the rain
sheds referred to at first and for the week
ending May OF that year IN average OF 2.5
inches was reported, the result Of which was
q steady rise until stage of II. l was attained
On May Ii. 1885, and then gradual fall The
increase of 3.S feet from April 20 to May II,
1883, is believed to be principally due TO that
rainfall of 20 inches. On the 14th of the
present month the stage of water was 60
feet. Comparing the 3.8 feet of water
that is presumed to be the result of
the 2.5 inches of rain in 1855
and the 3inches or. average rainfall for last
week, there should be about "A feet in
crease to the stage Of water of 60 of 18th
inst That would bring the maximum stage
of the preseh: high water to about 11.3 feet.
At all evenis it Is not likely to 60 above II
feet, unless heavy rains fall during the mid
die Of the coming week. The above deduc-
tions are not presumed to be based on
strictly correct basis, but are as well based
as circumstances will permit.

CHIPPEWA FALLS, Wis, May 21.-
There reached this city this morning a
rather good-looking middle-aged wom-
an, who registered at the Taylor hotel
as Mrs. Bigelow, of Boston. Shortly
after her arrival she sought out the au-
thorities of the law for search for her
four-year-old daughter, who was kid
naped by her father from her home at
Boston two years ago. The wOman's
real name is Mrs. j. Ii. McLellen, and
this is her story. About two years ago
she procured a divorce from her hus-
band, who was a worthless character,
and she was given the custody of her
child, which was afterwards stolen by
her father and the two mysUeriously dis
appeared. Mrs. McLellen has been in
search of the little one ever since, and
first caught sight of her this morning at
the house of George S. Williams in this
city. Mrs. Williams is sister to j. III.
McLellen. At the sight of her child
Mrs. McLellen grew hysterical with de-
light, but feared to take her by force
and procured writ of habeaS corpus.
Before the writ could be served the
Williamses spirited the child away and
the sheriff and posse are in pursuit.
Williams says he will deliver the child
before morning.

WHAT ARE HIS INTENTIONS :?

may care to visit it. Simultaneously
with this opening, two other gambling
rooms have been opened on Seventh
street, and it may thruthfully be said
that gambling has been resumed IN full
blast in the city.
What does it mean?
Is this sample of the promised re-
form?
Would these sports, who have been
chased out Of st. Paul before, come
back and open nov, unless they had
some assurance that they would not be
molested? 1t would hardly pay for
them to return and go to the expense Of
the new outfit for the short time re-
naming under the old administration.
Their fourishiEg place at South ST
Paul would never have been abandoned
unless they had felt that they would
bepermitted TO have long run in this
city, under the reform.
The sporting element is jubilant over
the turn affairs have taken. The streets
at night already feel the new impetus
given by the reform, and larger crowds
are seen along Seventh and Third
streets than have marked those
thOroughfareS for many months. Lines
of men and even boys may be seen pass
ing up and down the stairs which lead
to the jungle of the tiger and the rattle
of the chips, and the whirl of the rou-
lette bali may be heard clear down to
the street. And all this is in anticipa-
ton of the reform.
The new forms of gambling differ In
no way from the old stereotyped thing.
The faro table is the piece of resistance
and is the distinctive mark of the royal
beast wherever he may be. There IL
one faro layout at each of the joints
now in operation and the inevitable
stud pOk er table is. of course. there. But
one jungle sports complete roulette
set, though there is an apology for one,
beside a crap game and hazard or chuck
a-luck board in every place that haunts
its attractions in the faces Of the reform.
Business is reported to have been excel
lent at all the places since they opened
about two weeks ago, and it is expected
to steadily improve as the patrons gain
confidence that the game will not be
stopped by the incoming administration.
There is not the slightest evidence, Of
direct character, that there have been
any promises that the game will be per-
mitted under the reform. However, it
is little singular that gambling, which
has been so vigorously suppressed under
the now expiring city government,
should so suddenly and gaily spring
into active existence the moment it is
announced that reform in the system
had been demanded. The elaborate
preparations that have been made would
indicate that the sports have some
reason to hope that they will not be
moleSted for some time to come.
The reform starts out bravely.
