LOSS OF LIFE IN FLOODS.
Montana Rivers Turned Into Raging
Torrents and Many Killed.

Montana Rivers Turned Into Raging
Torrents and Many Killed.
Twelve persons are known to nave been
victims Of the overflow caused by the ice
in the Yellowstone river below Glendive,
Mont. Friday night. The Yellowstone
above broke up last week, and great ice
foes have been passing down. When they
reached Glendive Friday afternoon, the
ice there had not broken up, and they
were piled up against the bridge. The
water rose thirty feet in one hour, and the
ice piled up against the bridge mountain,
before the first and second spans gave
way, and were carried down the stream
on the surface of the ice. The two spans
were 600 feet long, Is feet wide and 40
feet to the crown, and not until the bend
in the river was reached, two miles below
the city, did they break up and sink.
The recent Chinook has made raging
torrents out of most of the rivers in Mon
tana, in many cases breaking all records.
The Yellowstone has caused the greatest
loss to life and property. Ice jams have
backed the water up and great damage
has been done. At Miles City the ice jam
med at the mouth of Tongue river, forcing
the water back until the entire south side
of the city was under water. Seventy-fve
houses had to be abandoned the people
having to be rescued in boats, so quick
had been the rise of water. Later in the
afternoon the water broke over the track
into Main street. which ran a torrent.
Hundreds of head of live stock have been
swept away.

Maj. Gen. Lawton's expedition cant,,r
ed Santa Cruz, a rebel stronghold on the
southeast shore of Laguna de Bay. The
tihplnos made a strong resistance. but
We're routed with great loss. Their killed
number IS, and 40 We're wounded. The
American casualties were six wounded
The American fire in this engagement
showed remarkable precision. and was the
most deadly of the war. The Americans
captured many prisoners, number of
cannon and large stock Of rifles and am
munition
The expedition, consisting of about
LOCO men, commanded by Maj. Gen. Hen
~ w. Lawton, left San Pedro Macati, on
the River Pasig, Saturday night, with the
purpose of crossing Laguna de Bay and
capturing the town of Santa Cruz, ON the
eastern shore Of the lake. The American
troops were then, as planned, to sweep the
country to the south. The force consist
ed of 200 picked sharpshooters from the
various regiments, Hawthorne's Mountain
Battery, Gales Squadron and three troops
of the Fourth cavalry unmounted; Bronx
and Happens battalions of the Fourteenth
infantry, Linck's battalion of the First
Idaho infantry and FRAMES battalion of
the First North Dakota infantry, under
Gen King.
The fotilla of twenty Canoes towed by
tugs and conveyed by the gunboats La
guna de Bay, Oesto and Nappidan and
preceded by the launch containing Gen.
Lawton and GeA. King, moved toward the
lake just as evening was setting in. It
was truly picturesque scene. The men
carried rations for ten days, with the
lightest marching equipment.
Gen. Lawton's plan was to reach Santa
Cruz Sunday morning at daybreak, to cap
ture or destroy any rebel gunboats or ship
ping, to take the town and then scour
the country to the south of the lake, dis.
trict not yet explored by the Americans
The fighting began on the outskirts of
the city. The Filipinos were driven in
and the main body of the rebels charged
A hot fight followed. Americans needed
little urging and gradually drove the en-
envy back. A flank movement at a critical
time completely demoralized the Filipinos
and their slow retreat was turned into
rout. The flying natives were pursued
through the streets of Santa Cruz, and for
some distance into the interior. Then
halt was called, guards posted through
out the city and the men rested.
Santa Cruz is a town of considerable
Importance. 1t is the capital of the PROV
ince of Laguna, and has a population Of
about $4,000. 1t was rebel stronghold,
and the capture of this place is looked
on as the opening wedge to the great
stretch of country beyond as good roads
lead out in all directions from Santa Cruz

Frances Use of Tobacco.

1t was recently estimated by M. Le-
clair, the statistician, that in France
there are about 100000 smokers, and
that out of every fifteen smokers eight
smoke the pipe, five the cigar, and two
the cigarette. The total consumption
of cigarettes in France during 1898 was
294 milliards, or 8O7,OOO,O0O a day,
100000 an hour, $4,000 minute, and
about 1900 second. All these cigar
cites placed end to end in line would
reach 614 times around the world.

Lightning and Wire Fences.

In the month of September last 266
head of live stock were killed in Iowa
by lightning, and 11S of the victims
were found in close contact with wire
fences. If the fences did not serve as
pathways for the fatal discharges, at
least, it would appear, they afforded no
protection to the animals near them.

PRESIDENTIAL ROLL CALL.
Captain Do1an's Chain Ynbroken I'm
til a Girl Was Born.

TIL Girl Was Born.
James Monroe Dolan lived for more
than fifty years on the farm he bought
In 1885. He was Virginian, and, hav-
Ing owned a fat-boat on the James
River, was known as captain" He
was patriotic American, and his am
bition was to have each of his children
named after a President, provided
they We're boys. He lived to see eight
Presidential namesakes grow up about
him. He used to say that his family
was part of the history of his country.
Strangers and neighbors who stayed
all night at Captain Dolan's farmhouse
could hear the roll call of the Presi-
dents from Washington to Van Buren,,
including the latter, early every morn
ing. The old farmers acres were
broad, and he was one of the first cat
tie kings of that part of the country.
Hence it was necessary for him to get
his boys out early for the work of the
day. The house, like most farmhouses
of that time, was double log struc-
ture, with an entry between, which
was used as the Storeroom Into this
entry old Captain Dolan went every
morning at o'clock and called the roll
of the Presidents, who were asleep in
one wing of the house. For many years
the following roll-cal was strictly at
tended to, in the order given:
Washington, Washington, Washing
toni" The young man of that name
was expected to answer on the third
call, and when he had done so he heard
the command, "Come, sir, time TO be
out" And then the call proceeded:
"John Adams, John Adams, John
Adams! Come, sir, time to be out"
John Adams had answered to his name
on the third call. The roll continued,
and the guest who heard it learned at
ter it was finished that there were two
Johns and two Jameses in the family.
One of the Johns was always called
John Adams, and the other John Quin-
cy. One James was called by his name,
the other was Jimmy.
After the birth and baptism of Mar
tin Van Buren, Dolan, the father is said
to have sighed. He was Wing, and
it was bitter pill to name one OF MS
boys Andrew Jackson, but he hated
Van Buren,. However, he said he
couldn't break the chain. Two years
after Martin, Van Baren's advent the
household was frightened by girl
baby. For more than year this child
was known as Sissy, because the faith
er and mother failed to agree on a
name. At last, however, the mother
gave way, and the ambition of the
father was to some extent gratitied.
He called the girl Henry Clay Dolan,
and long after her fathers death, while
her brothers were in the Confederate
army, and her mother was an invalid,
Henry Clay Dolan held the homestead
against raiders until under military
order she and her mother were Danish
ed. Every member of this family, ex-
cept it's heads, is still living.
