Tom Hal.

Mr.. NJ. B. Kitrell, of Tennessee,
saws: II owned several stations then.
including Climax and Booster, all
harness horses, and | saw an increas-
ing demand for saddle horses, so l
went to kentucky to find better one
than any body had in Wilson County,
aud found such a horse in Bourbon
County, Kentucky, belonging to
Simeon Kirtly. This was Tom Hal,
four-years-old sixteen hands high,
beautiful bay in color, one white
hind foot, big name and tail, and
paced very fast. bought him, pay
ing Mr.. Kirtly $400 for HIM. l
brought him to my place on Spring
Creek, in Wilson County, where L
then lived, and which l bought or ).
n. Cartwright year or two before.
This was in the year 1851 or 1852, and
is the identical place which Cart
wright claims to have owned and
stood the horse in 1915. Perhaps he
will do well to look a. the record
The first season Tom Hal ever made
in Tennessee was made at my stable
i'm the year 1851 on 1852. and L offered
premiums for the best of his get, and
great crowd attended the first colt
show and the barbecue l gave. Billy
Pliner took the first premium then
and there ever awarded TO Tom Halls
colt. SO he made his first and last
season in Wilson County III my
hands, beginning about 1881 or lS5-
and continuing eight years, and
then sold him TO Messrs. Bryant &
Orr, of MooresviIle, Marshall County
| Tenn, for 81 200.

DAMAGE BY THE FLOODS.
In the Vicinity of st. Louis Alone 1t is

In the Vicinity of st. Louis Alone 1t Is
Placed at SI1, 100000.
ST. LOUIS. May 23.-Friday's decline
in the flood though but slight was suffi-
cient to give the people a chance to pre-
pare for the rise.
Losses in st. Louis and Vicinity.
incidentally, too. an opportunity has
been given to estimate the losses of the
districts Immediately tributary to st.
Louis, and truly the figures are appau-
ing. Here they are: St. Louis county,
So, OOO, 900; St. Louis city, 81, 900, 600; st.
Charles county. So. 000, 900; the American
bottom, from Alton. His, to Cairo, So
O00, 900, this including East st. Louis
and vicinity; total, $l1 100000. These
figures, astounding as they seem, are
considered by competent judges eE-
tremely conservative. In looking at
this loss it must be remembered that IN
all the flooded territory referred to,
practically l 800 square miles, the waters
have rendered it in a majority of cases
impossible for the farming population
TO raise a crop this year. All this comes
in addition to the damage actually done
to existing property.
Thousands Homeless and Out of Work.
AS to the numbers of persons driven
either from their homes or to their roofs
in the flooded territory an estimate Is
impossible, figures ranging FROM 1000
to 5000 persons. Beyond this, in st.
Louis, at least, $1,000 persons have been
temporarily. thrown out of work by the
stopping of factories by the high water
The outlook is perhaps no brighter, but
certainly no darker. and It Is believed
that what has been done by way OF p o.
lection, supplemented by further wo-k
rendered possible By the breathing time
given, will suffice TO avert further serl-
Gus damage.
In East St. Louis, North St. Louis and
central ST. Louis there is no change from
the condition of the past few days.
In the country districts of st. Louis
and St. Charles counties and the AIneri-
can bottoms, the damage can not be in
creased, for it is now practically com
plete. All are now awaiting the r.,e
coming from above. What it will 90
can only be told when it gets here.
