little short yet we do not desire any
such experiences as befell Harrington
Sunday night. That city was visited
by cloudburst. The town and sur
rounding country was flooded. Lime
creek which had been dry for year
was converted into a raging torrent
and houses, horses, cattle and hogs
were swept down stream. John Will
liams' house was carried away and
the family narrowly escaped drown
ing. The house Of Samuel McManus
was also carried away and wrecked by
striking a bridge. McManus escaped
but Mrs. McManus was drowned.
Her body was found lodged in a tree
in the park south Of town.

President Cleveland has intimated
that his famous order with reference
to the perniciouS political activity of
bis appOintees will be rigidly carried
out. OF course this does not mean
that Secretary Carlisle and COmptrol-
Ter Eckels must be prohibited from
advocating the presidents financial
views, the former before the people
Of Memphis and the latter before the
Detroit chambers of commerce, but
does mean that any postmaster who
runs little paper, or other small fry
politician holding an appointment,
who advocates the use of silver as
money or attends a silver convention,
will lose his official head,-Newton

Icemen sre Negligent.

Complaint comes from all over the city
of neglect on the part of the servahts Of
ths Provldent Ice Company to deliver
Ice at tho proper time and to give the
amount chara cd for. When the com pany
was formed it was stated that the consOlls
dation would allow consumers to have
their Ice at au early hour. but instead Of
receiving II ut an earlier hour many peo-
pie com plain that the service Is poorer
than ever and that they are imposed upon
by the drivers In the matter OF weight
Several days of last week the Housewives
of Fourteenth street between O ayton and
DUPONT streets wero una BILE to get tca.
There are about six consumers In the
block, who each use ten pounds day and
the only cause they can sssigu for the
neglect Of the company's men ts the small
amount consumed. On another occasion
man would not stop his team TO make o
sale. This is only few Of the many
com plants.
