Terrible Flood at st. Petersburg.
BERLIN, Nov. 19.-Advices just
received here from st. Petersburg
give details of the severe storm
which swept over that part of
Russia on Wednesday last, No
vember IL. Owing to the violence
of the gale, the river Neva rose
81 inches and the islands in it were
flooded. In addition, the wooden
buildings along the banks of the
Neva, piers, etc., were washed
away and the low lying quarters
of the city were inundated. Boats
were used in some of the streets to
carry people to places of safety.
The peasants inhabiting many of
the villages on the outskirts of
st. Petersburg lost everything
through the floods, their homes,
cattle and all belongings being
swept away. The amount of dam
age is said to be very great and
many lives were lost. The exact
extent of the disaster however was
not ascertained when these advices
left st. Petersburg, although the
bodies of several drowned people
had been recovered.

AS to the personal safety of the

There is a feeling quite general in

through some rising on the part of
what is called the lib eral element
among Turks, the sultan may be
dethroned. Several attempts in
this direction have already been
made but without success. In
such event, it is undecided what
position the army would take, and
it is possible that such a rising
might be followed by an attempt
to massacre Christians and foreign
ers, but it hardly seems probable
in city where the foreign popu-
lstion is so great that any attempt
in that direction could proceed to
any considerable length. / can
not persuade myself that any

To Examine the Texas.

WASHINGTON, Nov. l9.-Instesd
of relying upon the regular inspec-
ton board, the navy department
will probably appoint a special
board to examine the battleship
Texas, with reference to changes
proposed to be made in tho inter-
nal arrangements, especially with
reference TO the damages sustained
in the center, as there are stories
afloat to the effect that the ship is
structurally weak, and that this
weakness is owing to large re-
duction made in the weight OF the
frames from the original plans in
order that the ship might not ex-
coed her calculated displacement.
The board may be charged to
make a special examination of
these bottom frames, and by bor-
ings to determine their actual

derson split Rays head with a
Ratchet, and in making his escape
from the room, attacked Mrs. Ray,

The Insect Invades Southeastern
Texas md May spread.
Washington. Jan. Sl.-'The department
Of agriculture is engaged in the invesu-
cation of the cotton boil weevil, a de-
structiye species OF which has recently
been introduced into Southeastern Texas
from Mexico. The insect is practically
new to entomologists although IT has
cen found that thirty years ago It caused
the abandonment of cotton culture around
Moncloya, Mexico.
Texas cotton planters observed its
work in their fields for the first time
last summer and specimens were sent to
the department of agriculture for in
vestigatlon. An expert was sent into
the field under the direction of one Of
the entomologists. DR.. o. l.. Howard, and
remained through the fall and early
winter months, carefully studying the
habits of the insect. A district Of about
5000 square miles is now infested. The
insect bores into the cotton boil and
ruins the fiber and the seed. In some
instances during the past summer it has
caused loss Of from so per cent to 90
per cent. Of the cotton crop. It spreads
rather slowly by flight, but is apt TO be
carried into new regions in cotton brought
from the infested fields to the somewhat
widely separated cotton gins.
The department Of agriculture has
warned the state OF Texas through a
letter written to the governor Of the
probable extension of the damage to the
cotton crop in Texas in the near future,
and the possibility OF the spread of the
insect to neighboring cotton growing
states. Immediate legislation is urged,
legislation which will isolate the affected
region and also the Mexican border
