An Interesting Exhibition.
Visitors to the store will find
in the Bargain Exchange a very
interesting illustration of
Linen Wea0tng.
AT large expense we have
brought out from the manufac-
tory Of A. E. Stiller & Son,
Sorau, Prussia, a loon and all
the needed yarns for weaving
Linen Damask Table Cloths.
An expert weaver accom-
panied it, who will daily exhibit
the loom actively at work upon
a beautiful Columbian design.
1t is commemorative of the 400th ami
versary of the discovery of America. The
cartoon displaying the pattern is shown
near the loom. Its features will be easily
understood.
In the center is o portrait of Christopher
Columbus. 1t is framed in an illustrated
bordered symbolical of the life, attainments
and public service of Columbus. At the
head a globe and scientific instruments and
ships rigging illustrate geography, navi-
cation and steamship. At the foot are en-
blems Of science, agriculture, mechanic
arts, mining and commerce. At the sides
are shown the heraldic insignia granted
Columbus by the crown Of Spain and ships
of the first little fleet of discovery.
The various illustrations are grouped ar
tistically in an arborous pattern that unites
and completes the entire design.
The cloth when finished will
measure, including fringe,
II inches square. 1t will
be of natural fax, moi
bleached, but will gradually
become pure white if carefully
laundered' Several replicas
will be made. They will be for
sale at a price yet to be fixed.

THE RUSH COMES TO-DAY.
Gates of the Boomers Paradise To BE
Opened at Last.

Arkansas City, Kan, September 49,
Everything that has life along the border
of the Cherokee outlet wasmoving today.
Final preparations for the biggest race
in the history of the world are being
made and the would-be starters are
scrambling for chance to make their
entries. The booths were opened at
o'clock this morning in large store
room and soon twenty clerks were at
work taking names and issuing certif-
Gates of registration to home seekers.
They started at the rate of twenty
minute, and if thst rate is kept up
12, 600 will be registered. The opening
of the booths here has attracted many
women and old men who had determined
not to register at all rather than undergo
the hardships at the border line.
The home seekers today appear to have
awakened to realization of the necessity
of carrying a supply of water with them
into the new country. The stock OF
canteens has long since been exhausted
and timers are busy soldering tops on
ordinary tin wash basins which are be-
ing sold readily at dollar each. A large
number of water wagons have been
rugged up and they will move into the
strip as rapidly as possible to supply
water to claim takers. They expect to
dispose of it at a dollar bucket on
Saturday night. Today's trains are
loaded down with town lot speculators
and the Cherokee Town Site Trust conn
pany is selling lots at rapid rate in
Cross and Kildare which are looked
upon as coming cities.

Railroad Tram Saved From Destruction

Chippewa Falls, Wis.,, September 15.-
The town of Withe, forty miles east of
here, on the Central road, is burning,
the fire being caused by forest fires.
A company of the fire department with
an engine has left for there by special

had a narrow escape from going through
a burned bridge. Section men coming
west on hand car, turning curve, ran

Chicago, September 15.-Directum, in
a race against time today, lowered his
record by a half second, and secured the
four-year-old record of 2.06 1-2 and the
stallion record of the world. Flying Jib
started to beat his pacing record of

2.04, which equals Mascot's pacing record
of the world. Four more heats were
trotted in the most sensational race of
the year, for the Worlds Columbian
stake, and the greatest trotting contest
the turf has ever known was then left
undecided. Hulda, who won two heats
of the race yesterday, went SO lame that
she was today drawn out, and it is be-

Madrid, September 15.-The town of
Villa Canas, in the province of Toledo,
has been devasted by floods, and a large
number of lives have been lost. Heavy
rains have fallen in the province and the
town, which is situated on rather low
ground, was inundated. The people had
no thought of danger though the many
small streams in the vicinity of the
town were rapidly swelling and threaten
ing Ito overflow their banks. Late last
night when most of the inhabitants
had retired, the water from the hills,
where there had probably been cloud
burst, swept down on the doomed town,
carrying away almost everything in it's
path. Huge trees that had been torn
from the ground, swept along on the
crest of the rushing water, and were
hurled with frightful violence against
the houses in the path of the on-rushing
tide. These trees acted as battering
rams, and carried houses before them
So sudden was the catastrophe that the
affrighted people had no possible chance
of saving themselves. Men and women
awakened from sound sleep by the
tottering of their dwellings, frantically
rushed to the windows and leaped out,
only to be engulfed in the water that
was now kissing and seething about the
falling houses. Other houses that escaped
being demolished by the floating debris
were rapidly undermined by the waters,
and in many cases collapsed before their
occupants could leave them. The masses
of wreckage going down on the flood in
some instances afforded means of
escape to persons who would otherise
have been drowned. Many men, women
and children, clutching in the darkness
for anything that would support them,
wreckage and were carried to places of
safety A large number of lives were
saved in this manner. In number of
cases the persons thus saved were very
badly injured, and it is probable that
some of them will die The bodies have
been found of several women who had
apparently made heroic efforts to save
themselves and their children. In one
place handsome young woman was
found with an infant clasped to her
breast with one hand, while with the
other hand she held the hand of a little
boy All were dead. 1t is positively
known that forty persons were drowned,
and it is believed that the the bodies
of many others are buried under the
ruins of their homes

New York, September 15.-The Her
AIDS Buenos Ayres correspondent cables
that the result of the bombardment Of
the city of Rio Janiero yesterday was
the same as that of Wednesdays attack,
but little damage being done. The cap
tain of the gunboat Alagoas deserted
from Admiral Mello's squadron. He
hurried to Rio and there gave informa-
ton to President Peixoto of the move
ments of the rebel ships. All points
which were favorable to the landing OF
an invading force were strongly in
trencbed. 1t is reported that perfect OF
der was maintained in the city during
the bombardment. There was much en-
thusiasm manifested by Peixoto's forces,
who still remain loyal to him. The war
ship Tiradentes, which still remains 10y
al, has put to sea. 1t. is expected she
will meet the armed merchant steamer
Itacoa, which was to aid the rebel fleet.
If the two vessels meet, desperate sea
fight is inevitable The loyal ship Bahia
has been ordered back from Parana. as
the upper river squadron remains loyal.
The students in San Pablo have declared
against President Peixoto. All the for
eign ships in the harbor remain neutral,
and have decided not to interfere in the
revolution Commercial houses have
protested to the foreign ministers against
the suspension of telegraphic communi-
cation with Rio. Brazilians living in
Buenos Ayres believe that the success of
the revolution means the restoration of
the monarchy.

New York, September 15.-It is re-
ported from Tompkinsville, S. L., late
tonight that one of the New York pilot
boats has spoken the Valkyrie some miles
southeast of Fire island. The Valkyrie
reported all on board well. From this
it is expected that the challenger for the
Americas cup will reach quarantine
some time tomorrow morning.
The Report Doubted.
New York, September 15.-The rumor
at Tompkinsville tonight that a New
York pilot boat had spoken the Valkyrie
some miles off Fire Island lacks confr-
nation The Valkyrie could easily out
sail the pilot boat and had she been
sighted at the time stated she would
now be at anchor in the bay. The
steamer Werkendam, which arrived at
quarantine at 10 p. m, reports having
seen nothing of the Valkyrle.
