A NATION OF BREAD EATERS.
Thc Swiss Make 1t the Chief Part OF
Their Food.

trrom tue fhiiidelpiiI Rtcord.)
In Switzerland bread seems to play a
more prominent part as food than in any
other country. except France. 1t furnishes
20 per cent OF the nourishment of the
100000 inhabitants in he Swiss Republic
and that the nourishment is wholesome
ard adequate is proven by the sturdy
health for which most of the Swiss are
noted.
1t is doubtful lowing 10 the careful en-
fcrcement of the anti-aiulteration law o.!

FRIGHTENED THE CHINESE

New York.

NEW YORK, July 1.-THE Chinese in
this city had their first real scare today.
When the ffty-od sanitary policemen ap-

running through Pell and Mott Streets

The Chinese scampered. One cookbook

tanning himself the while with palm,
leaf while he chatted with his three little
children, was the Chinese boss evil

dropped his pipe down a basement threw
away his fan, put one child on mis- shout

his heels and into the building they all dis

Meanwhile the negro. with his crowd

VICTIMS OF THE FLOOD.
The Texas Disaster Worse Than
Was First RcpOrted.

TEMPLE, Texas, July 17.-Twelve bodies
have been recovered from the flood at
Coleman and as many more lives are be-
lieved to have been lost. Communication
is interrupted and authentic news of the
damage wrought by the cloudburst is dill
ficult to obtain, but it is known that first
reports greatly understated the number OF
persons drowned and the property loss.
The cloudburst occurred some distance
up Herds Creek, an insignificant stream
which is usually dry at this season OF the
year. The valley through which the creek
runs is a favorite camping ground for
pleasure parties and hundreds of families
were living in tents or wagons along its
banks, when overtaken by the flood. A
number Of parties had camped in the dry
bed Of the stream and it is believed that
several Of these families were swept away.
The waters were precipitated down the bed
of the creek in wall ten feet high and
quarter Of a mile broad, engulfiug on
lockers before they had time to realize
their danger.
The bodies Of 1. n. Cheek and wife, ] hn
Spahl, John Christine, Mr.. Tate. wife and
two daughters, BERTHE and Lizzie; Annie
and Ivy Brown. of Stacey. have been re-
covered Christine and Spahi died in an
unavailing effort to rescue two children.
A wagon containing family of seven was
swept down stream and all persisted. Tier
identity has not yet been ascertained
Houses were swept off their four dations
and carried down stream, while stacks
were torn to pieces and swept away. Ten
miles of track and roadbed of the Santa
Fe Railroad were obiite.ated, fifteen bridges
being destroyed. one being lodged tn. ee
miles below its original moorings. Traffic
4s= suspended between Santa Anna and San
Angelo and 1t will be three days before
trains can get through. a
Large numbers OF horses, cattle. and
hogs were swept down the stream, and
the loss in this lire alone. together with
the damage and loss to crops, is /enor- /
nous. 1t is for the campers that the
worst fear is felt, and it is probable the
exact loss OF live will never be known.
Wires are down west of Coleman and
communication Is wholly interrupted
Searching parties are being organized to
hunt for bodies.

There is fight over the meeting place
of the next convention. 1t had been sup
posed that Kansas City would be strongly
in the running, but the Missouri delegation
took snap judgment on the Kansas City
crowd this morning and held a caucus.
The caucus voted for st. Louis as the
choice Of the State. 1t is certain that the
delegation will be divided and thereby
will probably lose the convention to Kan

convention are Indianapolis, Cincinnati,
