An old negro preacher near Elba,
Alabama, was seen by neighbor,
taking his ten.year old son Isaac
ont in the woods. At first be paid
no attention to the circumstance,
but when it REQUIRED to him that
the old man had on the Sunday
previous preached q very earnest
sermon on Abraham and Isaac, he
concluded to follow him. He came
upon him in a thicket, standing
over his sons dead body, which was
strapped to q log. lie had q bloody
knife 10 his hand, and his eyes were
raised heavenward. Blood still
flowed from the boys gaping throat,
which had been severed from ear
to ear. When asked why he had
done the deed, the maniac declared
that the Lord had commanded him
to do 30, and then turned and
walked away, his neighbor being
too dazed to stop him.

THE COMMITTEE SENT TO SEE
PRESIDENT M'KlNLEY IN
WASHINGTON.
They Present Their Petition Which
Is A General Review Of The
Horrible Suffering Which
Was Caused In The Over
flowed Districts.

Washington, April 6.-Messrs. r. C.
Graves and ]. S. Menken represent
ing citizens of the relief committee of
Memphis, organized for the purpose
of relieving the people of the flooded
country, tributary to that city, have
arrived in this city. They have pre-
pared the following statement which
they will submit to President Nc
Kinley:
From Marion, Ark, north of Mem
phis, to Greenville, Miss, there is now
at least fifty towns and villages under
water, and the territory extending
from 100 miles north of Memphis to
200 miles south, and five 20 forty miles
wide is submerged and devastated by
the food. Hundreds of thousands
of acres of cultivated soil, with grow
ing crops are included in the submerg
ed territory and there are from $4,000
to 10000 people whose property has
been destroyed and whose business
has been suspended thereby. The
amount of damages to property is in
calculable. In addition to the growing
crops which have been destroyed,
thousands of head of working stock
and cattle have been drowned and
starved.
The great majority of the sufferers
are small farmers, mostly negroes, who
with their present crop destroyed and
their working stock and farming tools
swept away, are left utterly destitute
and unprepared to begin work again
even after the floods have subsidized.

beyond the capacity of the local au-
thOrities and of the private local chart
ties to relieve. The Relief commit
tee of Memphis, is now caring for from
5000 to 1000 refugees from the flood
ed district and they are still arriving
by boat loads every day. In addition
to this, large supplies of provisions
are being sent to various points in
Arkansas and Mississippi, where it is
possible for refugees to be cared for
on higher ground and in relief barges.
The utmost that can be done by
these efforts is to measureably and
temporarily relieve the present suf-
fering. Committees have found it very
difficult and very costly to reach the
sufferers living in the interior, who

light draught steamers that can leave
the main river. Memphis being the
only point on high ground for about
200 miles north and south it neccesa-
rily has become a place of refuge for
all seeking to escape the flood in that
locality.
This flood is the greatest and most
destructive that has ever devastated
the Mississippi valley, water being two
and a half feet higher than the high
est stage it ever reached before.
"The relief committee is thoroughly
organized for the purpose Of distribu-
ting supplies to the people tributary
to the flooded territory and are will
ling to cope with the situation without
obtaining relief from the government"
Representative Cormack, who repre-
sents the Memphis district in the
House also signs the statement and
says his information by wire and let
ters is entirely in accord with that
made by the committee.
