4 Dam Gives Way and a Mighty Wall
 of Water Rushes Down Upon Towns
 ana Villages.
 BoIsn, Idaho, March 14.-News was re- ceived this evening that the dam of Indian creek reservoir gave way this noon and that the water swept down upon ranches and villages, carrying destruction in its path. This reservoir was constructed of solid dsmasonry ct the head of Indian creek. Hyde and Jackson, New York capitalists, backed the enterprise and built 1t ss e water supply for the Orchard farm of $40 acres recently set out in Idaho.
 The reservoir covered 500 acres and con- tained water sufficient to irrigate many thousand acres. It cost $50. .000. The country between Bysuka and Caldwell is under water. Every bridge between Nampa and Bysuks is washed out and many miles of track are submerged.
 When the dam broke messengers were sent at breakneck speed on horseback to warn the settlers. Almighty wall of water came sweeping down Indian Creek bearing houses, barns, farming utensils, live stock of all kinds and submerged whole farms on both sides of the creek. The citizens of Nsmpa saw the approach of the waters and fled to high ground. Soon all the low or part of the town was under water from five to thirty feet deep Fifty houses were ruined and many families are without shelter and bedding. Merchants are loan ing blankets to destitute families and pro- visions Rre being furnished to those iu need. It is reported that two mon were drowned.
 The cause of the disaster was the sud den turn of the weather, coupled with heavy rains, which caused rapid melting of snow in the mountains. Snake river rose eight feet to day, fact unparalleled in its history.
 This part of Idaho has had the heaviest fall of snow this winter known for yesrs The reservoir property is @ total loss. It is feared that Mount Home reservoir will share the fate of its Indian Creek neigh hOr
