The Missouri River Shows No Sign OF
Letting Up.
Omaha, Neb., April 24.-Measure-
ments taken by the Union Pacific
Waterman at the foot of Farnam street
show that the Missouri river rose two
inches at the Douglas street bridge be-
tween I o'clock Sunday night and 3
o'clock this afternoon. The water IS
certainly higher on the north side of
the smeiter than it was on Sunday. The
Stag crusher is completely surrounded
by water, which has reached the door
knob of the office. This building was
well out of the water Sunday night.
The Union Pacific tracks in this vicinity
are covered with water and trains can
not be run.
The plant of the Grant Paving COM
pany at the foot of Paul street is near
ly wreck. The water in Cutoff lake
has risen Is inches during the past "a
hours and the Ames avenue bridge
is submerged. Florence lake is at a
standstill. Water is almost on a level
with Swift & companys big ice house.
In order to reach the level of Florence
lake Cutoff lake must raise another
foot. The Carter white lead works in
East Omaha had to shut down to-day
on account of the water flooding the
boiler room. A dozen more families
were driven out of the bottoms to-
day

wife, Mrs. Adams. used 10 explain to
the guests at the white house that the

at Delmonico's have kept pace with The

of an old New Yorker who used to
occupy room and have his meals at
the hotel on the corner of Beaver and

Delmonico charged for a room and

n HEY keep telling new stories
about Mayor Jones of Toledo
Very few men have so sudden
ly shot up into national prominence
Jones is the novelty of the hour. He
is versatile genius. While brought up
as a. laboring man. he possesses an pX-
cellent musical education, and is a COM
poser of merit. They say he plays al
most any sort of musical instrument
he can get his hands on, but the violin
is his faVorite. The mayor is also one
of the best machinists in the country,
and is an orator, when thoroughly
aroused, who can hold his own with
the best of them. He can mount the
platform and deliver lecture or po-
litical speech that will SET his audience
fairly wild, and five minutes afterward
he can step into the pulpit and deliver
a sermon that will keep the pews free
of sleepers. The mayor is so wrapped
up in his golden rule theories that he
is ready to discuss them on all oCca-
SiQps, whether in the mayors office. at

~ HE saturnalia of lynching in
Georgia continued Sunday night
and yesterday. Strickland the
negro preacher implicated by Hose in
the murder of Alfred Crawford was
STRUNG up and horribly mutilated
There was no evidence against Strick-
Hand but the uncorroborated words of
Hose, who spoke them when scared out
of his senses, and whose veracity at
best must have been Of the lowest char
acter. Nothing was more natural than
that Hose should pndeavor to place the
blame, or as much Of it as possible, upon
another. But the frenzy into which
Sundays fendishness had thrown the
crowd deadened their sense of justice
entirely. With them, to stop to Waigh
the evidence. was out of the question.
They piled crime upon crime 1t is a
manical mob and the negroes in the vi
cinity good, bad and Indifferent, would
better make themselves scarce
- Under Atlanta date the Standards
telegraph columns this morning present
the views of several Georgians of prom
inence regarding ways to secure the
better protection of women from ne
groes. The most sensible remark is
that of Ex-Governor Northen when ne
says: "An occasional negro lying dead
in the back yard shot by a brave wo-
man in defense of her honor will do
more than all the lynchings that may
occur in a year" That is to the point.
Every man who commits a crime no
mater what it's nature, thinks he is go
ing to be lucky enough to escape de-
lection and punishment. But let man
with crime in his heart fear that in its
commission he is going up against a
gun and he will pause.
To go armed when their male friends
are not about, may not be a pleasant
experience to a woman. but necessity
seems to require it; and should occa-
sion arise the entire country will an
plaud her for shooting a black brute to
death. But the world has only horror
wrath at the people who committed
Sundays nonstrous fiendishness.

Stone" he said, "but If your question
has anything to do with the senator
ship from California. all I've got to say
is that I've already appointed Dan
Burns as United States senator to sue
coed Stephen M. White. His commits
sion has not yet been made out, that

The governor would not say when the
commission to Colonel Burns would be
issued; in fact. he refused to discuss
the right of Governor Stone to appoint
Quay senator. He left the impression
however, that if Quay is seated by the
senate he will at once issue a commits
sion to D. M. Burns
