ONE SHEET OF WATER
For a Distance Of Eight Miles
And Traffic On The
G. H. Sus-
pended
Special Dispatch to the HERALD.

I ii
SAN ANTONIO, Tex, April Ga
furious storm on the Southern Pacific
between here and Sanderson, which
started at that point last night ant
worked this way, did much damage
and traffic may be interrupted several
days.
| A bridge was washed out near Lozier
and railroad wires are all down. The
whole country near Del Rio is one
sheet of water. The railroad off cials
hope to get temporary bridge up at
once and run trains through, but can
not tell about the damage done until
the wires are up.
Freights left for the west on time
this morning; also the regular pas
senger.
THE SITUATION AT NOON
Special Dispatch to the HERALD.
SAN ANTONIO, Tex, April 6. noon.
The wires began working at noon to
Del Rio and it was learned that the
road bed was washed to pieces between
Pherson and Watkins, distance OF
eight miles in which are five bridges.
At that time nothing had been heard
of the iron bridges west of Del Rio, but
all are up on this side and trains will
stop there until the washout is re-
paired.
A terrific downpour OF rain con-
tinued with great ferceness for over
nine hours yesterday between Sander
son and Del Rio and played sad havoc
with the telegraph wires and road and
bridges of the G. 81. Dispatches re-
ceived in the G. H. office ia this city
show that the unrelentipg torrent
washed away everything in sight, tax
ing in its embrace five of the railroad
bridges and over sixteen hundred feet
of track.
All travel is delayed and the only
source of communication from eastern
Texas is by way OF Dallas. No definite
news of the wash out can be obtained
and it will be nearly four days, accord
ing to the present estimate, before the
iron horse will draw its freight into
this city over that line. Largeeparties
Of workmen and an abundance of ma
terial have been dispatched to the
scene both from San Antonio and this
city but the officials despair of any i'm
mediate relief.
AS near as can be sscerta!ned the
work of destruction commenced at
about o'clock last night, as it was
that hour when a train passed the
bridges in safety, but reported the
water at suoh height and rising SO
rapidly that further traffic would be
impossible. 10 places of considerable
length the country is sheet of water
and for q space of eight miles travel Is
out Of the question.
The iron bridges along the line from
Del Rio west are not accounted for and
1t Is possible that not half the damage
done has been reported.

DON'T AFFECT THE WAsHBURN


a Jamestown special to the Mime
apolis journal says that there will not
be much railroad building inNorth
Dakota this ~year-both the Northern
Pacific and the 500 having agreed not
t extend any more branch lines this
y~ear-and gives as the chief reason
the extra cost of steel rails and other
material entering into the construc-
t1on Of the road. So Far SO good. But
the article goes on further to say that
the Washburn road is likely to be
sold either to the 500 or the Northern
Pacific, but not this year
The latter statement is entirely
without foundation. The Tribune has
III from the most trustworthy authority
that nothing of the kind is contem-
pIated BY General Washburn. He will
not sell his road to any company. He
will build and equip it this year. He
will operate it independent of any
ether road. He will connect at Bis
marck with any and all roads that
build to this city. The 500 has been
headed off this a from building
to Bismarck but when Mr.. Washburn
shall have completed his line north
he will reach for connections south,
The output Of the region directly trib-
titary to the Washburn road has been
carefully figured out. e is no guess
work about it. The road promises
To be a paying property.
The development Of the coal indus
try alone will make this line pay

II LITTLE THINGS,

The little things are those that make
us great,
The little good we do, the seed we sow
That springs to life and flowers ere we
know,
The stricken heart that beats discon-
solate,
The little word, the smile, may soothe
and cheer,
SO little kindness serves to dry a tear,
So little OF thine effort ease the weight
OF woe that burdens Sorrows bent
back down,
So light needs be the touch that
smooths the frown.
And as the little beacon light that safe
Within the lighthouse, Pickering in
the gloom,
Saves the spent, struggling ship from
reef and doom,
So may thy little light, shed not too
late
Warn some spent soul from raging
rock and reef.
Away from foaming breakers Of its
grief, l
70 ride At anchor, safe, within the
gate,
And thou art great.

The supreme court of the United
States has reversed the opinion Of the
supreme court of North Dakota in the
case of the Jamestown & Northern
railroad vs.. Jones. The question at
issue was whether the company's right
attached to land after the construc-
ton Of the road acros it, but prior to
the filing Of a map Of definite location
as against the right OF settlers who
claimed the land under the pre-emp-
ton law. The state court ruled in
favor of the settler, but the supreme
court holds in favor Of the. company
and has remanded the case for further
proceedings.

u~ellNSTSu throughout d length and
breadth of North Dakota and South
Dakota, and used economically by all
manufacturing plants and the locemo-
tives of the various railroads-com-
pete and drive out of use all other
coals-who a estimate the amount
of business this Washburn road will
dos
The building OF this line has done
more already for the city of Bismarck
in the way of settling up the country
tributary to the capital city than ri
and all other influences combined have
done in fifteen years. Throughout the
length and breadth Of the country the
people are studying the maps and the
finger of destiny points to thousands
of happy homes where now there's
naught but bleak prairies in the great
region north of Bismarck. The build
ing of the Washburn road means the
extended use of Ignite coal and warm
and comfortable homes south and east
OF US where now the fuel question is
a problem and where in some in
stances as in the region north and west
of Aberdeen the settlers are burning
straw and hay for fuel. It means the
greatest incentive to the establishing
of manufacturing plants that can be
imagined. 1t means the employment
of thousands of miners and the ex-
tension OF mercantile trade. Nowhere
in the worlu can such good land be
purchased at such a low price. No
where else in the domain covered by
tile land laws of the United States can
such fertile lands be obtained free by
the settler. The opportunities now
offered on the Missouri slope do not
come often-they will never come again
in the lifetime of this or any other
generation. The cheap ariable lands
of the United States are rapidly disap-
pearing. Only six years ago the lands
of the Red River valley were selling
slowly at S12 to $50 an acre. Last
E&F1HEb #ENyE
week land a mile from Casselton sold
for S33T. so an acre and a tract south
of that point sold for $50 spot cash,
and that land is worth the price paid
for it. Texas land is being sold
for s. an acre for grazing purposes
alone and an acre of broken land any
where in western North Dakota is
worth three times as much as Texas
lands for grazing purposes. The
people Of Bismarck and the Missouri
slope do not fully realize the import
ance of the present conditions and the
necessity Of prompt and Vigilant ac-
ton. History is being made mighty
fast and now is the time to lay the
foundations sure ana solid for the
Capital city and its environments.

IN THE WORLD OF NATURE.
The plan of the world is Natures plan,
But the way of the world is the way Of
Man.
And the seed of sin is the seed of Man
And this is the way since Time began.
For many the gifts that Nature
To him, and none that was not good.
Breathed in the clay and babe it rise
And gave it earths and sea and skies.
Thrilled Man with life and gave him
light
And showed him the way-and this
was Right.
Gave him the earth and the germ and
seed
And opened the book and let him
read.
Spake to his soul in the solitude
And taught him love and brotherhood.
Gave him an armor, where no flaws,
The shield Of the soul, and made him
laws. s
Set him insthe field and babe him SOW
And fashioned him seasons to come
and go.
Smiled and promised him endless day
And babe him only this: aObey!
Not flaw or fault in all her plans
But fault is here, and fault is Mans.
For the laws she laid and the plans
she made
He heard, and straightWay disobeyed.
Her laws he scorned and her voice he
spurned,
And bitter the lesson then he learned.
Learned he grief and woe and pain
And knelt and prayed to her again.
Prayed that she might take away
His sins, and let him but obey.
But the seed he sowed when he dis
obeyed
Sped on and on BY the plans she made.
For only Earth's to bring and breed
The fruit, whatever be the seed.
The plan Of the world was Natures
plan,
But the way Of the world is the way
of Man.
