A deep sense of gratitude, which |
have always had aud the sympathy and
consideration which have been made
manifest Icy kind and generous hearted
neighbors at a time when nothing save
friendship could bring the solace | so
much need to ameliorate sorrows, which
in 40 many ways hang cruelty over a
once happy and contented home, causes
me to desecrate a sacred hour to give
expressions to promptings of my heart,
which ! can no longer suppress, aud it
is ~this-that it matters not what the
fates Of the future may decree or what
betidea me in day to come, the deepest
place within my heart will belong to
Macon and her good people

GLOOMAT new ORLEANS
Devastation and Ruin Are How
ering Over the Crescent City.

New Orleans, April 1O.-GIoom
hangs over the valley Everywhere the
river is rising. AS the mighty stream
rolls toward the sea its great weight
bears upon the banks. Nerved by the
appalling thought of the ruin it's en-
trance through any Of the protecting
levees would bring, thousands of men
are to work at strengthening the bar
rier. Any tiny rivulet trickling through
the broad embankments is cause for
signal of alarm. Keenly each sign is
watched for, rapidly a relief train re-
sponds to the call, hurriedly a lumber
bulwark is built and earth filled sacks
packed in behind So far each sum-
mons has been answered and each eff
fort met with success but the water is
growing greater in volume and might
Ter in force, the alarms coming with
more frequency, and it is doubtful if the
splendid system can prevail against
the long continued strain, which has
just begun anew.
esterday Governor Fister answered
truly that Louisiana was in no need
of relief. No one can tell what his
answer will be a week hence; still,
Louisiana is better favored than her
sister states. Her Ievees are higher,
and her levee boards are in good fin
ancial condition. A railroad runs
along the river on each side almost to
the upper line of the state and men
and material can be placed with greater
facility In all this hangs their hopes.
The flood is already greater than ever
known before, but each days record
will be broken by the next day for at
least a week to come and the levees
already built up to stand the water ex-
pected are being built higher to stand
the water that is certain to come. Right
here in the city, despite the carefully
built and solid wall around it, the en-
gineers have advised increasing the
bulwarks, and Mayor Flower has or
a forces q n il
ness to aid the levee board in case of
emerg gency. The night guard has been
doubled. The directors of the fight all
along the state line have little chance
to sleep and the end of the struggle and
it's results are beyond even the hazard
of a guess

MORE PROGRESS.
Otto Kuehne Will Enlarge His Vine
gar Works and Employ 90
More Hands.

Otto Kuehne will enlarge his Vinegar
and Preserving works in North Topeka
so that at least 20 hands viii be added to
the force and the capacity of the plant
will be greatly increased.
Mr. Kuehne will build a 3-story addition
to the rear of his building, As feet in
width and so feet long. A part of the ex-
tension is to be used as a boiler house
and the horse power of the plant when
the improvements are completed will be
100.
The estimated cost of the improvements
is $1,000 and it will make the plant one
of the largest and most complete estab-
Hshments in the west
Mr.. Kuehne contemplates the further
enlargement of his plant by the building
of cooper works. The business has
grown SO large that the firm no longer
attempts to manufacture the barrels and
kegs used but two men are kept busy
making repairs.
The Topeka Vinegar and Preserving
works has almost been doubled in capa-
city in the past two years which proves
conclusiVely that with the right kind of
management manufa curing enterprise
in Topeka can be made to pay. Mr..
kuehne now has contracts for cucumbers
and garden vegetables with hundreds of
Shawnee county farmers and still the firm
is compelled to ship in much of the raw
material used.

A FIGHT IN THE GALLERY.
Exciting Scenes Attend the Balloting
at Frankfort Today.

Louisville, KY, April 10.-A special to
the Evening Post from Frankfort, KY,
says: The greatest excitement pre-
vailed during the first ballot for United
States senator at noon today. The gal
Ieries and Iobbies were crowded The
sole topic of conversation was the bri-
berry charges that have been brought
against DR.. Hunter and his chief lieu
tenants, Wilson and Franks. the Re
publicans denounced them in unnleas-
ured terms, saying it was but dirty
scheme to defeat the Republican nomi-
nee.
Before the roll was called there was
a fist fight in the right gallery. The
call of the roll showed no quorum pres
ent but was taken anyway which gave
Hunter 81 and Boyle 1. Sixty answered
to their names.
A motion to adjourn brought out the
absentees and the vote stood So to 5S,
but President Worthington decided TO
continue balloting and the second bal
lot was ordered. The fight in the gal
lery was between Thomas Morrow of
Somerset, a relative of Judge T S. Nor
row and a nephew of Governor Bradley,
and Pete Sanders, a local Hunter Re
publican. Sanders struck Morrow over
the eye with a pair of brass knuckles,
cutting an ugly wound.
There was no change on the second
ballot.
