THE SITUATION AT wHEArrAND.

WHEATLAND, Feb. 19.-The high water
caused by the heavy storm last night is
doing considerable damage on Bear River
and creeks of this neigh borhood. There
are two breaks in the Bear River levee,
one on the Hale ranch, just below the
wagon bridge on the south side.
A report has just come in that the levee
on Roddan Bros hop ranch has broken,
and the farmers and townsmen are or
ganizing parties to lend assistance. The
break will prove serious, as the overflow
can be seen from town.
The northbound Red Bluff passenger
| and freight are delayed here by the wash
| out on the south at Ewing Station and on
the north at Dry Creek, a mile from town.
There has been no rainfall since noon,
and the water is falling.
The break in Roddan's levee has wild
ened TO 100 feet and a river of water is
rushing through over the hop fields. The
overflow Will cover the ROddan, burst,
Jasper and Woods hop yards, a total of
nearly 700 acres. The damage cannot be
| estimated.
Should the storm abate within the next
few days the damage will be small. Only
about fifty acres opposite the break will
be seriously injured by debris. This
| land, with improvements, is valued at
| 81, 600 per acre.
Al this writing the overflow is opposite
Wheailand and the low streets are being
covered
The passengers of the Red Bluff train
( were terried over the break above town
| at o'clock.

deserves honorable mention. The
horse of the colonel had been shot
from under him, and he, dismounted,
had taken his stand upon rock di-
rectly in front of n rebel gun. Dis
charging muslket after muslket as fast
as they could be loaded for him, he
remained a noted mark for the enemy
to shoot ut At short distance all
the men belonging to a cannon of the
confederates had been shot down or
fled, and their lieutenant was un-
dauntedly serving and firing it single
handed. Three times had IL belched
forth flame and ball. Col. Lander,
noticing the bravery of the man,
called out to him: "lf you fire that
gun again you are dead man" "Sir,
I shall fire it as long us have life in
my body" was the cool, fearless and
curt reply. This was an instance of
noble courage, well calculated to be
appreciated by n true soldier, and the
union colonel, leaping from the rock,
shouted to his men: Boys, that is too
brave man for me to kill. IN. p.

TERMS OF PEACE.
japan said to Have Agreed Upon .
Proposition.

Jnpan Sald To have agreed Upon =
Proposition.
YOKOHAMA, Dec. 4.-According to the
semi-ofiicial press Japan has decided
to insist upon heavy conditions of
peace, which will be increased as the
war is prolonged. If the war is con-
cluded at the present time, Japan will
accept an indemnity of $500, 900, 900 and
the cession of the territory now occu-
pied by her forces. Too much weight
| should not be attached to the Chinese
overtures for peace, for it is believed
that Japan will be required to give
her enemy further proof of the power
of Japan in order that the Chinese peo-
pie may learn that their government
sued for peace.
II Taku and Shan Hal Kwan cannot
be attacked this winter owing to the
severity of the climate the war will be
carried on in other parts of China. No
armistice will be granted unless China
formally sues for peace and sur
renders Peking to the Japanese or
| gives other pledges in proportion to
the demands of Japan. If China is
unable to pay the war in
| demnity Immediately portion
of the sum decided upon paid
down will be accepted and the re-
mainder may be paid in installments
with interest. 1t must, however, be
stipulated that the power of Japan is
regarded as absolute and then there
will be no further opposition to the
conclusion of peace.
LONDON, Dec. 4.-The Times corre-
spondent in Chez Foo says: Foreign
ers here are preparing for defense.
The Chinese have little confidence in
the report that an armistice is about
| to be concluded "

JACKSON WENT TO SLEEP.

He Knew Through Some Mysterious
Agency the Enemy Would Not Appear.
DIR. Hunter Mcclure, who was the
surgeon of tho "Stonewall Brigade"
and the friend as well as the physician
of Stonewall Jackson, in tho course of
some "reminiscences of that famous
commander remarks upon the ex-
traordinary knowledge which he
seemed always to possess about the
enemy's movements.
Late at night after the last days
fighting at Malvern hill, DIR. Mcclure
found Gen. jackson asleep by the side
of a tree, while his faithful servant
Jim was making coffee to be ready for
him when he woke. just then several
general officers came up.
They discussed tho situation, which
they thought very serious Their
troops were scattered, they said, and
if Mcclellan made an attack in the
morning they should have no organ
lied force with which to resist him.
Gen. Jackson still slept, aud some one
proposed to wake him.
That was never an easy matter. DR..
Mcclure says that he had seen Jim
pull the generals boots off and remove
his clothes without waking him. On
the present occasion 1t was almost inn
possible to rouse him. But at last he
was raised to a sitting posture and
held there, while one of the officers
shouted in his ear about the condition

MORE TROUBLE FOR FLOWER

The Doctor Released Under Heavy Bail
Only to Re Rearrested.
CHICAGO, Dec. 4.-Dr. K. c. Flower,
brought here from Galveston, Tex,
on charge of obtaining $45,OO by
false pretenses from N. c. Foster, a
Wisconsin lumberman, gave bail
Monday afternoon in the sum of
S11, 200 and was released, but he had
hardly gained his freedom before
he was rearrested on another in
dictment found against him by the
grand jury in 1889. The new charge
which confronts the doctor is brought
by d. R. Chappell, of Peoria, Ill, who
accuses DIR. Flower of embezzling the
large amount of $500, 900. 1t is alleged
that the accused bought large tracts
of coal land in Peoria county with
worthless stocks and bonds. He was
supposed to be purchasing the land
for the Illinois Coal s. Coke company
which, however, proved to be myth.
Flower was admitted to bail on the
second charge, Alderman James R
Mann and Thomas w. Sprague going
on his bond for $4,000.

Washington Politicians Advocating Suf-

Washington Politicians Advocating Suf-
frage for the District.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 4.-Some of the
aspiring local politicians of Washing
ton are now advocating suffrage for
the District of Columbia. At one time
citizens of the district were permitted
to vote and in most respects the local
government was the same as that of
the states and territories. A gov
ernor was the principal officer in
charge of local affairs, and an
assembly or house of delegates
made the municipal laws which,
of course, had to be approved by con-
gress, but the colored citizens became
SO numerous and SO arrogant in pol
itics that the white citizens asked that
the right of suffrage be taken away.
That was about twenty years ago, and
congress granted the request and
changed the form of government.
The laws of the district are now made
oy congress, and they are admins
tered by u board consisting of three
commissioners appointed by the presi-
dent.

WHITEHALL, N. Y, Dec. 4.-Train
No. on the Delaware g. Hudson rail-
road, which left Montreal at 9:10
o'clock Monday morning, was thrown
from the track ~ miles north of Port
Henry tunnel at about lao Monday
afternoon. IL was in charge of Con-
ductor Mclaughlin, and the engineer
was George Long. The train consisted
of mail and express car, baggage car,
smoking car, emigrant car; passenger
car and drawing-room car. The en-
gine did not leave the track, but the
tender and the mail and express car
went crashing along an embanlkment
and plunged into Lake Champlain.
One end of the smoker also went into
the water. The emigrant and passen-
ger cars left the rails, but fortunately
their momentum was checked and
they remained on the bank. The
drawing-room car was only partly de-
rallied.
The express messenger and the mail
agent went down with their car and
were drowned, and several others mar
rowly escaped the same fate. A num-
Der of persons received injuries and
for time intense excitement pre-
vailed. The list of casualties rs far as
obtainable is as follows:
Richard Quinn, Ballston, N. Y, express mes
senger, drowned; Samuel Rose, Rouse's Point,
N Y, mail agent, drowned; James Coborne.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 4. The Alexsn-
dria (Va.) local train coming to Wash
ington Monday morning was wrecked
at Jackson City, the Virginia end of

long bridge at a switch the train jumped
the track and plunged down an embank-
ment. The locomotive crushed the
life out of the fireman, w. L. Wilker.
The engineer, E. A. Hayden, escaped
with bad cut on his head, although
he went over with his engine. A few
of the passengers were thrown from
their seats but no one was seriously
injured.

SAVED BY CHURCH BELLS.

How the City of Atlanta Escaped a She'll
Ing by Shermnn's Army.
II remember" said an old soldier
one Sunday morning lately, when
church-going bells much more distant
than those saved the city of Atlanta.
1t is story never saw in print.
I'm early August, 1864, Gen. Sher-
man had closed in on Atlanta The
Eleventh Indiana battery had placed
in position, with our assistance, four
sixty four pound rifle guns to shell the
city, under command of Gen. John M.
Brannan. Our regiment, the Second
Massachusetts, had Sunday morning
inspection and parade, after which the
men of the regiment went to the hill
back of the camp to see the effect of
the fire on the city lying below us and
two and hnlf miles away. We could
see the churches of Atlanta, from the
spires of several of which were float
ing confederate flags.
THE batteries were in position, the
guns were shotted, the fuses were in
and an officer stepped up to pull the
lanyard to fire the shot AS he lifted
his hand the sound of church bell
ringing the people to worship fell on
his ear.
For moment there was silence.
The officers looked from ono to tho
other, and the shot was not fired that
day. The Sunday church-going bell
was too much for the Twentieth corps
of Sherman's army. But on Monday
the city got it."-San Francisco Bul.
