Electric Bitters,

Electric Bitters is medicine suited
for any season, but perhaps more gen.
orally when the laugnid, exhausted
feeling prevails. when the liver is
torpid and sluggish, and the need of a
tonic and Alternative is felt. A prompt
use of this medicine has often averted
long and perhaps fatal bilious fevers.
No medicine will act more surely in
counteracting and freeing the system
from the malarial poison. Headache,
indigestion. constipation, dizziness
yield to Electric Bitters. SOC and 81. 90

canOnS upon Morrison and Golden and
other mountain towns were caused by
terrific mountain storm, which ex-
tended for a hundred miles or more.
From Boulder, in the north, where the
damage was slight, all down the range
west of Denver, almost to Pueblo, the
storm swept its destructive way.
At Morrison and Golden the torrents
tore away buildings, uprooted trees,
washed out long stretches Of railroad
tracks, swept away bridges and spread
humiliation through the towns. Their
work was brief, as the warnings they
gave was inadequate,iand almost before
the citizens of the stricken commune
ties knew what had happened the floods
passed, leaving only a deadly silence
and signs of devastation everywhere.
All that could betdone in the darkness
and confusion was done by the rescu-
ers. Men, womemand children were ex-
tricated from dangerous predicaments,
let down from the roofs of floating
houses, helped out of trees and drawn
out of the veryH whirl and death of
the torrents.
1t is feared that lives have been lost
at Central City, and perhaps at other
points in the mountains There is great
difficulty in obtaining accurate infor-
nation of the extent of the devasta-
ton, because of the wires being torn
down, railroad tracks swept away and
all communication with Denver cut off
or interfered with.
The Gulf and the South Park rail-
roads suffered most severely in the
loss of track and bridges. There are
also washouts on the Santa. Fee, the
Denver & Rio Grande and the Flor
ence & Cripple Creek

The recent attack upon woman
travelling in railway carriage has re-
newed the agitation Of corridor car
riages for the compartment cars now
in use upon the railways of Great Brit
ain. Questions have been asked in the
house of commons, looking towards
compelling the railroads to adopt cor
ridor carriages, and the board Of trade
is now communicating with railway
companies on the subject.

At Sutton the river raised 80 feet.

At Chenille, the river was reported

At Weston, this mornings rain re-

amount Of damage sustained by the

yet be related, as portions of its line
are still under water. Many trestleS
have been washed out.
At Buckhannon. the river is again
rising with six inches, in the depot
there.
A Clarksburg dispatch says: The
river is rising rapidly. People living
in the lower portion Of the town are
moving out of their homes for the
second time this week. A passenger

SOCIAL GOSSIP OF LONDON TOWN.
Several Events Contributed to Make
the Past Week an Important
One All Around.

LONDON, July 25.-With the present
week the London season comes to an
end. Indeed, there has already been a
large exodus of fashionable people to
the country, where for some time to
come Vanity Fair will have full curse.
The royal wedding at Buckingham al
ace was, of course, the chief soc al
event of the week. On that day all the
big houses and clubs in Piccadilly had
large luncheon parties to see the pro-
cession. The Bachelors club, the Duke
and Duchess of Marlborough and Mrs.
Bradley Martin were among those who
had smart assemblies
A society paper says that Queen Vic
toria has taken quite a fancy to the
Duchess of Marlborough, formerly Miss
Consuelo Vanderbilt. According to this
high authority. her majesty is mot
generally partial to Americans who
capture peers, and her cordiality in the
case Of the Duchess of Marlborough
has been remarked upon in court cir
cleS as quite unusual

blocked the streets in front of the
church where the ceremony was per-
formed, and in the vicinity of the house
where, subsequently, reception was
given. The crowd called "Trilby" I'M
til the bride appeared on the balcony
and drank glass of champagne to
their health
The South African association had
dinner on Wednesday at which the
marquis of Lorne presided. His lord
ship, who is a son-in-law of the queen,
made a remarkable speech, in the
course of which he said that he be-
lieVed that the British would be just
as much masters on the Zambesi be-
fore long as they would be also masters
on the Nile. He remembered a short
time ago saying to Cecil Rhodes, 1--WE
mean to take the Nile if you will take
the Zambesi," to which Mr.. Rhodes
had answered.: THAT is exactly what
we mean to do"

THREE STATES INVOLVED.

RIVER is STILL ON THE RISE.
Even If There Is No More Rain
Worst of the Trouble Is to
Come.

CINCINNATI, O., July 25.-The river
at Cincinnati at o'clock tonight was
80 feet 5 inches above low water
mark, having risen feet and 1 inch
since o'clock this morning. Since this
evening it has been rising here at the
rate of nearly two inches per hour.
1t will probably rise much more rap
IDLY tonight and reach by Monday
night a maximum stage of "A feet.
Below Cincinnati the Kentucky and
Indiana tributaries Of the Ohio, though
full, are not at flood height. The Lick
ing river in Kentucky, opposite Gin
cinnati, is not above an ordinary wet
weather stage.
All the tributaries on the Ohio side
have been torrents, notably the big
Manu. the Scioto the Hooking and
most notably of all the Muskingum
Beginning with the Big Sandy river
the boundary between Kentucky and
West Virginia, the swollen streams
on the left bank Of the Ohio pour their
turbid floods into the beautiful river"
The rain fall seems to have increased
in its abundance and fury as 1t went
north. The Little KanaWha Is pour
ing out relatively heavier flood than
the great Kanawha is, further down
the river. News from West Virginia
reports great floods at the headwaters
of the Monongahela. This is the main
supply Of the flood at the headwaters
Of the Ohio, since tonight's reports
from the Allegheny indicate no CORE
spending rise in that stream.
AT o'clock tonight reports from all
up river points show the Ohio river ris-
Ing rapidly all the way from here to
Pittsburg. Parkersburg is the only
place reporting the river stationary.
but this is only apparent, as the huge
swell from the Muskingum Is lust
about past that city. AT Portsmouth
the river is forty feet and rising so
rapidly that it is feared back water in
the Scioto will damage growing corn
at least $4,000 more than has already
been done by the storm. Exposed and
endangered cities along the river are
Parkersburg, Catlettsburg. Hanging
ROCK and Portsmouth. At the last
named place the damage seemed great
est. Here Cincinnati boatmen and
merchants on the landing are busy to-
night moving freight to high up posi-
lions, out of the reach of the flood.
The false work on the new Pennsyl-
vania, Louisville & Nashville bridge is
In danger of being washed from under
a large section of the channel span.
The lower stage of the Ohio river be-
low mere favors a rapid running out
of this flood All predictions herein
given are on the absence of further
heaVy rains for the next three days.

DENVER. Co., July 25.-As far as
ascertained up to this morning, the

REDWOOD FALLS, Mimi, July 25.-Sen-
ator E. D. French, of this city, has COM
menced an action against the publishers Of
the Gazette, claiming $4,000 damages. The
Gazette published an article using his name
in connection with an attempt to Doodle the
Dun Mercantile agency on account Of bill
introduced in the last legislature purport-
ing TO be an act to regulate mercantile
agencies, but which would have really driven
the agency out of business. The Gazette
openly charged the senator with the act while
the legislature was In session At that time
he gave no attention to the charge. During
the early portion of June the Gazette referred
to its previous editorial, and Senator French
demanded retraction.

ports are coming today from many
points In the interior of West Virginia
telling of the vast extent Of the rain

hardly a community in the northern
and central part of the state that has

Will be very heavy at all points. and
many railroads will suffer severe loss
on account of the washing away of
trestles and wiping out Of the stretches
OF track by landslides. Today traffic
has been resumed on the Baltimore

the two roads on the Ohio side of the
river, the Bellaire Narrow Gauge, and
OHIO Valley, have not yet resumed and
