permitted 20 smell a glove which
had been worn by one of the men,
and the next instant with a deep
howl he caught up the trail and
followed it on the run. At one
point the men had walked for 80
yards on a fence, and when the
hound came to this point he car
ried his nose along the rail with
hardly any reduction of speed.
Coming to the place where the
men had mounted. he took up
the trail of the horses and follow
ed it into town, where in crowd
of more than 100 men, he picked
out the one whose glove had been
given him to smell.

BlOOdhOund's Keen Scent.

A remarkable exhibition of the
keenness of the scent Of the blood
hound was given al the little town
of Bronson, in Allen county, Mis-
souri,, the other day. The town
recently appropriated 800 out of
the city treasury for the purchase
of one of these animals, the pur-
pose being detection and capture
Of thieves who were operating in
the neighborhood, and test of
the hound was considered desira-
BILE. AT noon three men started
out on foot and walked four miles
into the country. Then they
mounted horses and by a circui-
tous route returned to the town.
Six hours later the hound was

ORB OF DAY.
How it Looks to the People of
the Different Planets.

The people of Neptune are often
In doubt as to whether or not the
sun is shining. They are so far
away from the great central orb
that it is mere speck in the sky
which only men with good eye
sight can see. Plenty of the plan
cts that are swinging about in
the heavens look bigger than the
sun to the people of Neptune.
Those on Uranus are little better
off.
Upon Mercury, on the other
hand, the sun comes up ike an
immense new moon, and it burns
with an intense glare, and is
so hot that the people there can
cook their breakfast by the light
of the morning sun. When the
sun sets on Mercury it is like a
large part Of the heavens drop
ping out of sight, and cold
breeze Immediately springs up.
Even on Venus the sun looks so
big as to scare an inhabitant of
the earth, could he be transported
TO that planet.
From Mars it looks good deal
smaller than it does from the
earth, but year on Mars is equal
to two years on the earth.
Another curious thing about Mars
is that it has two moons, revolving
in different directions. One of
these little moons is hardly big
ger than a good-sized cheese, but
it flies through space with the
speed of cannon ball. This lit
tie moon goes skimming close to
the surface of Mars, and the peo-
pie there, with their long distance
guns, could easily shoot up and
hit it.
They have 20 look sharp on
Mars to see this little moon, which
comes noiselessly from one direc-
ton and disappears around the
corner in another, regardless of
movements the regular moon.

St. Louis, Mo-. April 5.-Ten
thousand square miles of flooded
farm lands, 200 lives lost and
$100,0OO,000 worth of property
dertroyed.
This the record of the huge
yellow monster that coils its
length like the slow spreading
tentacle of an octopus from the
British line to the Mexican Gulf.
1t is the record of the insatiate
Mississippi.
Seven States are wailing and
wallowing and tlouuderlng in the
muddy torrent. and thousands of
people have gone sailing over
their farms and into the flooded
forests on logs. on RATS, on the
roofs of their houses. On the
small knolls that yet rise above
the deluged lands In Arkansas,
Mississippi and Louisiana, little
groups of hali starved men are
gathered with their families and
farm animals, waiting for the
res ue that comes SO slowly.
And still the tide rises and
swells and widens and sings it
long song of death and disaster
through the broNen levees, and
still the ski SHOWS of Min
nesota and the Dakotas melt and
pour their vast volume into the
already unprecedented current.
Levees from ST. Louis to Vicks.
burg are broken and DESTROYED.
Crevasses are everywhere. Twen-
ty thousand men have fought
night and day. and are still fight.
ing the roaring waters.
In the backwoods and isolated
lowlands of Arkansas and Mis-
sisslppi thousands of poor settlers
have been deluged and are cut
off from communication or res.
cue.
Thousands of farm animals
have been drowned. Culverts
and bridges have been washed
away and railroad traffic i'm.
peded. Relief is slow and made
quate, and the end is not yet.
CAR LOADS OF RELIEF AND MORE
NEEDED.
At the same time the appeals
OF the sufferers for help have not
gone unnoticed. The Governors
of Arkansas, Louisiana and Mis-
sissippi have sent car load after
car load of provisions to the var
ious distributing committees ap-
pointed. Expedition after expe-
ditlon by steamer and railroad
are carrying on the work of res
cue. Even the Unites States
Senate, which sometimes arises
to an occasion, has appropriated
$250,O00 for the sufferers.
But the worst of the suffering
is that of which the public

knows nothing. Thousands of per
sons, men, women and children,
are slowly starving In the tree
tops and on the submerged hill
locks Of Arkansas and Mississippi.
Should relief fail to reach them
their skeletons will be found later
on when the grass grows green in
the torrent beds and when the
floods and sufferings caused by
them are forgotten.
The cheif danger at present and
the worst one along the entire
length of the Mississippi Is that
which confronts Greenville, Miss.
The town, which has $4,000 in.
habitants, lies back of the levee
and under the level of the present
current of the river.
If the levee should break there
is no human power that can avert
another Johnstown disaster. Then
the American people may awaken
to the real extent of the present
suffering in the Mississippi Val
ley.
Among the Sad Refugees.
Go into one of the rufugee
camps on the Tennessee bluffs or
on the Arkansas side, and the
heart sickens at the sight of
the people. Many of them of
the best, who are living on charity,
people. who escaped from their
homes in skitIs at night, carrying
nothing with them. The most pit
liable sights seen since the yellow
fever of 1878 are in these river
towns, where dozens of families
are huddled on the floor of one
big building.
In one ginhouse, at Rosedale,
Miss, | saw seventy-tive negroes.
They were fed from the relief
boats because they did not wish
to leave, but finally had to.
asked the president of bank at
Greenvillc, who has large inter
ests both In Mississippi and Ar
kansas, how much he thought the
damage would be from the flood.
THE flood Is not over yet" said
he. Amy estimate would he silly,
So far as laying claim to accu-
racy. A million dollars would
not replace the live stock that has
been drowned, nor that amount
the loss of personal effects and
ruined houses. But The worst of
it is a half million busy people
are idle. They are poor; most of
them have lost what little they
had"
"Will the flood subside in time
for them to make crops?"
"4es, but their crops will be
short"
A Million Day Lost.
Every day Of tins flood is cost
ing the people in loss Of farming
operations a million dollars. Cot
ton should be planted corn should
be growing; not fence will be
standing around a farm; not a
mule to plough; not mouthful
will the people have when they
return to their naked ones. All of
