ClOuo burst on Asotln.

While Il gentle shower Of rain was
falling in Asotin Thursday between
one and two o'clock destructive
cloudburst occurred in the mountains
at the head of one Of the tributary
branches OF Asotin creek, sending
body of water Is feet high down into
the vany that swept almost every
movable object before it, destroying
homes and farms and drowning stock.
At this time it is impossible to esti-
mate the loss but it Is safe to say that
100000 could not repair the damage.
Five wagon bridges across Asotin creek
were swept out excepting one span of
the bridge near the Asotin park.
The noise made by the rushing tor.

four o'clock. AT first it sounded like
the low moan Of the wind and grad

still night by a tram OF cars passing
over high trestle or bridge. In an
other instant, a big muddy wave ten
feet high, carrying trees. timbers,
fencing and trash came rolling down
the stream spreading out over its
banks. Then came another swell fol.
lowed still by another, until the water
was fully Is feet deep.
So far as learned no human lives
were lost but some miraculous escapes
are recorded. Mr.. and Mrs. Green
were on the banks Of the stream In
their orchard and Mr.. Green hearing
the noise made by the approaching
water remarked to his wife that that
sound. d like cloudburst. His wife
laughed at the idea Of ciOudbursl
while the sun was shining but IN an
other instant the huge wave was with
in sight. Mrs. Green was so scared
she could not move. Her husband
made a sh for her and grabbed hel

Progressing.

That our farmers are catching
on to the things that enable them
to make living and some money
out of Mother Earth, we need but
mention the fact that during the
week just closing, a genuine hay
press for bailing hay was seen be-
ing hauled through our streets to
be used on bailing Marion county
grown hay. The man hauling
the machine was none other than
B. II. Seymour, who has no su-
perior as a successful cultivator
of the soil and grower of fine
stock near Ocala. The Star is
pleased to see these evidences of
of thrift, for it means money to
those who practice them. There
is no reason why Marion county
should import ton of hay.

Death Of Mrs. McGregOr.

Mrs. Lidia McGregor, aged SO
years, for several months past a
resident of Ocala, died at her
temporary home on Fit. King
avenue about midnight last night
of brights disease. She had just
returned a few days ago from
White Springs, seemingly inn
proved by the trip. The remains
were shipped to her home in Stu
benville, Ohio on the 2:40 F. G.. &
P. train, where they will be en-
TERED in the family burial
ground. Her only relative in this
country, Mrs. j. S. Post, &C
companied the remains. Mrs.
McGregor was a most estimable
christian lady and while in our
city made many friends, who will
mourn her death.

There is more catarrh in this
section of the country than all
other diseases put together, and
until the last few years was sup
posed to be incurable. For a
great many years doctors pro-
nounced it a local disease, and
prescribed local remedies, and by
constantly failing to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it in
durable. Science has proven ca
tarrh to be a constitutional dis
ease, and, therefore, requires
constitutional treatment. Halls
Catarrh Cure, manufactured by
f. j. Cheney & Go, Toledo,
Ohio, is the only constitutional
cure on the market. 1t is taken
internally in doses from 10 drops
to teaspoonful. 1t acts directly
on the blood and mucous surfaces
of the system. They offer one
hundred dollars for any case it
fails to cure. Send for circulars
and testimonials. Address,

house, passed through Ocala yes
terday to spend Sunday with his
family on South Lake Weir, re-
marking to Star reporter that
he had just come from Tifton,
Ca, the seat of a great peach in-
dustry, but the crop this year was
almost a total failure owing to
the presence of a scale on the
trees, which is said to resemble
that prevailing on the California
orange trees. Mr.. w. says the
scale is spreading and unless
checked will prove disastrous to
the peach and plum trees of
Georgia.

Election of Officers.

The Metropolitan band held
their annual election of officers
last night. The resignation of
the popular leader, Albert G-erig
rendered some time ago, was re-
luctantly accepted. To the abil-
ity and untiring efforts of this
faithful gentleman, is largely due
the success of the band. The Of
ficers elected are G.. H. Camp
bell, president, reelected; j. r.
Martin, drum major, reelected;
w. w. Condor was elected
leader, with Ray Alworth assist
ant; G. w. Martin, secretary and
treasurer, reelected and H. Har-
rold, librarian. Maj. Campbell
and j. r. Martin had rendered
their designations, but they were
not accepted, as these officers
cannot be replaced. The new
leader, Mr.. Condor, has filled the
position before, with credit to
himself and benefit to the band.
He is a musician of acknowledged
superiority and is we'll able to
blow his own horn. Following
the election, the boys assembled
in the band stand and rendered a
delightful concert, heard with dis
guised pleasure by many Of our
citizens.

Eminently Qualified.

We are glad to hear that Mrs.
Dickinson, the estimable and cul-
tdred wife of Florida's war hero,
Gen. j. j. Dickinson, has been
chosen by the National Confeder-
ate Association to write a his
tory of the war from 1850 to
1870, as it pertains to this state.
General Dickinson will gather
all the data in connection with
the late struggle referring to
Florida, which Mrs. Dickinson,
with her educated and polished
pen, will weave into an interest
ing and instructive history,
which generations yet unborn
will peruse with pleasure and
profit.
The honor is a great and envia-
BILE one, yet we know of no per-
son who by nature, education
and experience is better qualified
to perform this delicate, difficult
task, for has not this brilliant
writer, by her gifted pen, placed
in imperishable form the thrilling
incidents of the late war enacted
in Florida, as depicted in her fas-
cinating narrative of Dickinson
and His Men,

uine in his ardor and devotion
that the criticism of many was
that it was not all 1acting,"
which was certainly the highest
compliment that could be paid
the young gentleman.
The tableau of the Bridal
Scene" ii the last act was one of
exquisite beauty. The bride was
attired in a lovely gown of white
silk and the groom wore conven-
tional black. First came the
fathers, personated by Messrs.
w. w. Acheson and T. r.
Wright, then the "best man, +"
Mr.. Bertram Aver, and the maid
of honor, Miss Alice Acheson,
lovely, in a beautiful gown of
''mousliu de soe' over yellow
silk.
The little flower girls, Mar
guerite Porter, Elizabeth Dunn
and Loretto Wright, clad in
dainty little dresses Of white
dotted swiss strewing flowers as
they entered, made a bewitching
picture.
The estar" of the evening was
little Miss Marguerite Porter, a
dainty maid of six, who ap-
peared in ten songs and tab
leau.
We do not know of cOmmu-
nifty more artistic and cultured
than North Lake Weir. The en-
tertainments they frequently
give would do credit to any large
city.
Much of the credit of the en-
tertainment is due to Mrs. f. s.

Porter. These ladies also served,
during the evening, delightful
refreshments. A VISITOR.
