A KENTUCKY WoMAN,s CARE.
Judges Could Not Get Along without
Miss TOmpkins.

Womanly thoughtfulness provides for
the judges of the United States supreme
court dozens of little comforts which they
never knew before, and the only wonder
is that members of congress- seeing the
pampered condition of the court, do not
insist upon having the rest OF the capitol
housekeeping directed by feminine brain
The taxpayer is interested, too. as Miss
Tompkins of Kentucky keeps the court
comfortable and happy on less money than
any of her predecessors says the Louis
vile Courier journal.
A few instances will serve to show the
difference between a masculine and femin-
inc administration. Moths have no more
respect for the draperes of the supreme
court than for the overCoat of the ordinary
citizen, so the hangings used to be annu-
ally devoured during the summer recess,
or else stored at considerable expense at
some upholsterer's in the city. Miss Tomp-
kins had a great cedar closet built in an
unused gallery for a very modest sum-
and now the court draperies are as safe
from moths as the parlor curtains of the
most careful house1eeper Another in
stance: Several of the judges like to
lunch in the court room instead of in the
badly ventilated senate restaurant. When
Miss Tompkins came she was Mortified to
see the highest court of the land eating
off of tables covered with greasy newspa-
pers. She bought table cloths and other
necessaries, trained the messengers to act
as walters, and a hungry judge can now
satisfy his appetite at as seemly a looking
table as he would find in his own home

Miles of River Bottom Under
Water.
RIVERS ARE RAPIDLY RISING
Great Depth of Snow in the Mountains
and Big Storm Raging-Nsps
Is Flooded.

San Francisco, Jan. 22.-Rain is still
falling at every point in California
north of San Luis Obispo. Heavy rains
are reported in the Sacramento valley
and the river is rising steadily. At Red
Bluff ii was % IL feet above low-water
mark at noon-a rise of three and one
half feet since last night. The water
now in sight Will carry the river to 26
feet at Sacramento by Thursday morn
ing. There are now IT'S square miles
submerged in the valley. The storm,
which has steadily increased in sever
ity, is one of the worst Of a bad season.
The water in all the rivers and streams
is higher than for years. The local
trains in many localities are at a stand
still. In the mountains the snow is 20
feet deep on the level in many places.
IL fills up the ravines, weighs down
branches of trees and is imprisoning
mountain settlers. who are suffering for
necessary supplies, the roads having
been impossible for days. Great dam
age has been done to the farms. By a
heavy freshet on the klamath river,
another drowning occurred-that of a
wealthy Chinese miller, who was swept
away by torrents. The town of Napa is
flooded. the rivers coursing down
through the streets. Many residents
were taken from their houses in boats
to higher ground. Half of the town is
still practically submerged and the rain
continues to fall steadily

tains CONTINUES and with apparently
no sign of cessation in it's violence Des-
pite the enormous snowfall and drifts
caused by heavy winds, the railroad
officials have been enabled to keep the
road through the Sierra Nevadas en-
tirely clear and passenger trains are

porarily stopped on the Shasta route
on account of the enormous avalanche
that occurred on Monday in a canyon
near Castle Crag. The railroad COM
pany has a large force of men engaged
in the clearing the track and hopes to
be able to forward trains today. The
local trains between this city and Red
Bluff are running via Marysville. A
heavy washout in the vicinity of Will

doned temporarily At present the
track where the washOut occurred near
Dunsmuir is entirely covered with
water and it is simply impossible to as
certain the amount of damage incurred

Question Concerning the Convict MIR.
derer-Senatorial Talk


Walla Walla, Wash, Jan. 22.-The
killing of Ref by Convict Hoyt at the
penitentiary yesterday has caused
great comment here as 10 what steps
can be taken toward trying Hoyt for
his crime, as he is at present serving a
2O-year sentence for murder. Prosecut-
ing Attorney Ormsbee is besieged with
questions as to what he will or can
do. In reply to these questions Mr.
Ormsbee declines to give any informa-
ton as to his course. Many claim that
Hoyt cannot be tried until the expira-
ton of his present term while others
think the governor could suspend his
sentence pending trial. Word was re-
ceived from Refs sister today re-
questing that he be buried here. He will
be inferred in the penitentiary ceme-
terry.
Friends of Ankeny are somewhat al
armed at the vote he received today.
Petitions have been wired the WaIla
Walla delegation asking. that they
stand by and urge the election of a
Walla Walla man. A business man
who returned from Olympia today says
EX-Congressman Thomas Brents or Ex-
Governor Moore are prominent dark
horses" and in case of no immediate
choice either Of these men may get the
plum.
