Montreal. March 21.--Montreal stands
In imminent danger of a repetition OF the
disastrous food OF 1896, when hundreds
OF thousands OF dollars damage was
done. For some days the water in the
st. Lawrence river rose steadily, until
now il has touched the record point.
Along Commissioner street a stone
wall shuts out the water. on top OF this
Is wooden dyke. and the water is now
half way up the dyke. IL Is q COM

IL go IL means that the cellars II. the
lower part OF the city will all be flooded.
Below the city the water has risen above
the level Of the road skirting the river.
and the houses are filled half way to
the ceilings of the first story. Along
Craig street, near Victoria square, the
cellars of some OF the big drygoods
houses have been flooded, but the dam
age here will be light. as all goods had
been moved out.
The two pumping stations OF the city
are working at the full capacity in hopes
of keeping the overladen sewers from
backing up. and so far with tolerable
success. Along Mill street the first fats
OF half dozen manufacturing in
dustries are flooded. and a couple Of
thousand Of people will be thrown out
OF work until the water subsidies. The
river i'm front OF the harbor is covered
with floating ice. If the jam i'm the
river below the city gives way all dan
ger of flood will be overcome, but at
present there is little hope OF this taxi
ing place, and disastrous overflow Is
generally looked for.

Greatest Musical Organization on tho Road
Booked for the Lycsum
The Brunswick Lyceum association
has had the good fortune TO secure
the famous Boston Ideal club for an
appearance here on Wednesday, March
2. II was the intention of the
directors TO secure two musical
attractions during the season, but
the chance OF securing the ideals
presented itself, and 1t was thought
more advisable to secure one really
first class company than two of Lesser
merit.
The Boston Ideal club is undoubted-
~ the finest musical organization on
the road. 1t comes south only once
every five years, aud, this time, is bet
ter THAI eyer. la order to secure this
attraction, the directors had to assume
the sponsibiIty of a heavy guaran-
tee--in fact, the highest ever paid 8
musical organization for one appear
ance in this city. This club plays to
crowded houses in other cities at 81
per admission. Here the price will
be 81, and the citizens will be asked to
make a special subscription list for
extra seats. to prevent personal loes
} to the directors in bringing such an
attraction here.
Realizing that on the success Of this
first season the future of the ~
ceum in Brunswick must rest, he di-
rectors have engaged for this season
only first class and high priced at
fractions for the remainder of the sea
son. The following is the corrected
