ERRIBLE TEXAS FLOODS.
Fearful Loss Again, and Two
Days More Storm Predicted
Damage Over $3, 900, ,OOO-The
Whole State Covered.

Dallas, Texas, April 2S.-The
floods snow no signs of receding.
Oa the con trary, most of the Texas
rivers are rising. A Fort Worth
elegram says the Trinity river is
overlooked, doing much damage.
The people are alarmed for the
safety of the waterworks, which
are seriously threatened.
A nine foot rise is sweeping
down from the head waters of
the Trinity. This will cause a
big overflow in the vicinity of
Dallas and Fort Worth by tonight
A bulletin from Waco says the
list of dead will reach fifteen
persons.
The loss by flood and hurricane
since yesterday is from three to
five million dollars.
Another storm is predicted.
The property damage in the
city exceeds $150,000. Telegraph
lines are gone, isolating more
than one half Of the state. Rail
road movements are absolute
suspended south of Dallas on al
most every line IN the state. A
bulletin from Galveston says {:
THE government weather map
shows that the whole state was
visited by yesterdays storm, with
the greatest precipitation in Tenn
pie and Waco, being 6 inches"
Three boys were caught in q
boat in Galveston bay and are
believed to be drown ned.
The streets of Galveston are to-
day flooded from curb to curb by
the rain Of last pight.
New Orlean The officials of
the Queen q Crescent railroad
today announce that all trains
over their lines would run from
this city through the recently
flooded districts on schedule time
today. These are the first trains
of New Orleans over this road
since a week ago last Wednesday
Galveston-Another storm to
last two days is predicted by the
government weather bureau and

ARTESlAN WELLS
In SOUTH CAROLINA.
Efforts to Get Accurate Informal
tlon About Them.
PROF. GLENN TO COLLECT 1T.
He has Been Appointed by the
General Government to do
the Work.

The photographic division of
the United States geological sur
vey includes among it's numerous
lines of work study of the arte-
sian we'll conditions of those parts
uf the United States where such
wells are possible, so that 1T may
render practical assistance to tho
people of such districts in their
Efforts to obtain a better and
more healthful supply of water,
by giving information as to the
chances of success, probable depth
and character of water.
Such information can only be
given after a careful study of the
geology of the region and a COL
lection and study of the records
and material passed through in
as many as possible of the wells
drilled in the region. After such
study trustworthy advice and as
sistance may be given to parties
contemplating drilling arteslan
wells by which they may be
guided where there is prospect of
success or warned and prevented
from wasting money where fail.
ure IS assured.
A large number of arteslan
wells have been drilled In South
Carolina, but almost no study has
been made of the geological prob
lems involved in the search for
artesian water in this State, and
almost no samples of materials
have been preservd except from
a we'll or two In Charleston. This
division of the United States geo
logical survey has placed DR.. l.
@. Glenn of the South Carolina
college in charge of the work in
South Carolina and he desires to
obtain records of the depth of the
well, thickness, character and
distance below the surface Of the
various strata gone through, posi-
ton of the various water. bearing
beds, the quantity and quality of
the water and the height to which
1T rises with the cost of boring. 1t
is highly important that sample
Of several ounces of the material
Of each Of the various beds passed
through be secured for study and
that the thickness and depth be
low the surface of each of these
sampled beds b. known. 1t is
especially desira Bile that all shells,
bones, teeth, etc, be preserved
and sent with a record of their
depth. Blanks will gladly be
sent to all parttas able aid willing
to assist by furnishing such rec.
ords and samples. Bags in which
to collect samples of material will
also be sent, as will envelopes and
tags by which they may be re,
turned TO Dir. Glenn free OF ali
postage.
1t is hoped that the county pa
pers will aid in the matter by
publishing this article, as the
work the United States survey
has been induced to take up in
South Carolina is of much impor
tance to all residents of the low
country, where the surface water
is so often q fruitful source Of
sickness, and where in many
places artesan wells and as q
consequence improved health are
possl ble.-Colum mbia State.
