HYATTsyLLE. Nd, Oct. 24.-The

burg at a rate hardly equaled in the
history of the town. All the main
streets were flooded and people moved
their goods TO places of safety. The
water is backed up in the branch below
Bladensburg and all means of getting
rid Of the surplus is stopped.
Communication between Hyattsville
and Bladensburg was cut off and the
mails had not been delivered for two
days. The flood Of 1886 still lives fresh
in the memory of many villagers. At
that time the water was as high as the
second stories of many Of the houses aud
much valuable property was destroyed.
They were practically inundated for two
days end two nights.
The fear of some such another food is
keenly felt at this time and not few
persons have already provided themselves
with an extra quantity of provisions and
have removed their household effects into
the second and third stories.
The body of an unknown white man
was discovered about Lincoln Banks
early yesterday by two colored men from
Bladensburg. At is supposed that he fell
into the stream at Hyattsville and was
carried by the strong current to tn,
place where he was found.

The plaintiff was Charles w. White
and the defendant DR. William P. Miller
White agreed to make a machine for
folding powder papers for the doctor, for
$lS. When he got it well under way, he
saw that he could not build it for that
money and so informed the doctor.
DR.. Miller claimed that White then
offered TO build it for $33 This White
denied, but said he offered to build IL
on time. which, when finished amounted
to $44 10 Two or three days before he
completed the machine the doctor paid
him $33 and received a receipt!for the
amount as payment in full
White rendered a bill for 50 addi.
tional, after he had finished, which DR..
Miller refused to pay and the matter
resulted IN the suit.
The referees decided that there was
no cause for action and White was
obliged to pay the costs.

THE housewives Of Florence in the Fl (
tenth century were prudent and frugal
lot. They bought a supply of wine and
oil sufficient to last for one or two
years and stored It away in their cell
lars to ripen and improve for future
consumption. In many other ways they
showed excellent and admirable quail
ties. Among other things they were
beautiful and they dressed with ex-
quisite taste as to color aud form
But IL is astonishing to read some
recent studies Of Florentine history for
the Johns Hopkins University, in which
Walter B Seattle says;
They might easily have been more neat
and clearly than the subjects Of Henry
VIII, but It is doubtful whether Varchi
would now be considered a Judge Of
cleanliness There were no appliances
for the bathing of the body in the

THEY BLAME BRADFORD.
The suretIes Asked 60 Have DouRberts
Removed But Were Refused.

Removed But Were Refused.
Three sureties Of John j. Dougherty,
ex-tax collector Of Wilmington hundred,
haunted the Court House corridors to-day
They were awaiting an opportunity to ask
the Levy Court not to push them for the
SIC. 900 shortage in Dougherty's &C
counts. The opportunity did not present
itself at the morning session, and they
will probably have their inning this
afternoon.
Speaking of the trouble Thomas Toy,
one Of his bondsmen, said 20 an EVENING
JOURNAL reporter this morning:
I'm May, 1891, FIVE of the sureties
went before Magistrate Monaghan and
took oath that they did not think that
Dougherty was properly conducting the
affairs af his Office and that they, as his
bondsmen, were afraid of heavy loss
From there we went to the Levy
Court and asked that he be removed
and another collector appointed in his
place Edward 6. Bradford, attorney
for the Levy Court, rendered an opin-
ion that, under the act creating the
Office of tax receiver, passed
by the preceding General Assembly
the power to appoint collectors was
taken out of the hands of the Levy
Court Consequently Dougherty went
on and we had TO stand right still If
we had got the books at that time We
would have had enough on his duplicates
to pay all his present shortage but few
hundred dollars. We have already
offered the county more than the books
showed to be the shortage at that time '

Two pretty girls called at the

inclined to sneer at these trivial things
as beneath the notice Of great minds

Nothing is too trivial for place in the

happiness Of a single person in Whining

bends His attention 20 the fall Of a spar
