A Mighty CIoudburst Plays Havoc With

Guthrie, o. T., April 29.-For miles
the Canadian valley is a dreary waste
and her people are overcast with
gloom. At sunrise mighty wall OF
water from six to eight feet high and
mile wide. broke upon west Guthris
without warning, crushing houses,
sweeping away property and drown
ing people by the scores.
Every movable thing was swept be-
fore the wave, which passed on into
the valley with resistless force, wreak-
ing terrible destruction to life and
property wherever 1t reached.
Dozen of human lives are known to
have been sacrificed, how many may
not be known for weeks; hundreds of
houses were wrecked; for miles farms
were completely ruined. bridges and
tracks were washed out and railway
traffic in every direction Is at stand
still.
All Chaos.
The most complete chaos has pre-
vailed all day. The efforts of rescuing
parties have in many cases proved In
vain. Many people foated down
stream before they could be reached
and hundreds will pass the night in

While the land parade was waited
for after the conclusion Of the cere-
monies the sky became cloud-laden
and the wind increased until it almost
howled around the trees. The waters
Of the Hudson reflected the ashen hue
of the sky and the great white ships
that fioated on its bosom stood out in
almost omnious relief The dusty road
bed Of the drive was whipped up until
black coats became brown and specta-
tors forsook their unsheltered seats
for the protection of the tomb pillars.
Then, suddenly under the cloud of
dust, from the south, between the two
black lines of people which seemed to
meet in the perspective, came the nod
ding plumes Of the soldiers. On they
marched, an endless line of white and
red and blue and gray.
The Military Pageant.
Surrounded by his cabinet, his gen.
erals, and his friends, President Nc
Kinley stood and reviewed the grand
est military pageant ever seen In this
city. There were regular soldiers, reg
ular sailors. national guardsmen of
the sea and land forces, Grand Army
veterans. Confederate veterans. and
the stripplings who, in the future, may
fight rs gallantly as their fathers did.
When the cheering was at it's loud
est and when the wind had somewhat
! died away, a touching scene was enact
ed which was seen by few. Silently
Mrs. Grant stole away from the. presi-
dents reviewing stand, where she had
been watching the gallant troops go
by, and, leaning ON the arm ofrher
son, Colonel Grant, made her way to
the tomb, followed only by the mem
bers of tho Grant family. The bronze
doors we're opened and the widow of
the hero passed from the noise Of the
outside world into the dim quiet of the
tomb. For about 10 minutes she
stayed there, and then with her face
hidden in her hands she left the scene.
Soon after this President Mckinley
went aboard the Dolphin amid the
booming of guns and reviewed the
great warships that lay in the shadow
Of the tomb.
