FLOOD REFUGEES
Found Quarters IN Public Buildings and were
Supported by General Donations.

There was little or no suffering in
Marietta during the high water. The
various school houses, the City Hall,
and other public buildings offered con-
venient and safe places of habitation
during the presence of the yellow
flood in dwelling and business houses.
All the school houses. with the ex-
ception of two were occupied by fam
lilies who cooked, ate and slept in these
temporary places of refuge.
Food was furnished in abundance
either by the city or by the generosity
of individuals and as a consequence
the breeding of infectious diseases was
effectually stopped.
The West Side poor were well cared
for and were kept supplied with the
necesssaries of life. Councilman ]. l..

Mayor w. E. Sykes sent 100 loaves
of bread to Inc needy persons on the

III; Fight
For Possession Of Old Mllllon-DoIlar Grade
in Nevada.
Special to the Leader.

Special to the Leader.
Salt Lake, Utah, April 25.-A crisis
will be reached within the next few
days in the big fight between Senator
Clark and E. H. Hartman for posses
sion of the Old Million-Dollar Grade
in Nevada. The Clark forces have
drawn a dead line and raised a barri-
cade at point about 12 miles beyond
Uvada, the present terminus of Har-
riman's Oregon Short Line. The
Clark men are strung out along the en-
tire grade beyond the dead line and
hold possession.
The Short Line track layers are
eight miles beyond Uvada, and have
distributed ties almost to the dead line.
When they reach this latter point
there is certain to be a clash of some
sort, unless the Hartman people re-
cede from their announced purpose to
go right on
Senator Clark's men are also laying
track on their portion of the grade,
and their rails have an interesting his
tory. Thirty years ago little mar
row-gauge road was built from Phoebe
to Bullionville, New. The rails were
hauled hundreds of miles by OK team.
Senator Clark's company has pur-
chased several miles of this old track,
and is hauling the rails by wagon to
the disputed grade. 1t has also secur-
ed push car from the same source.
and can thus claim that it has a rail
road in operation.
While the value Of this disputed
grade is $1,OOO,OOO it's value to the op-
posing companies is much greater, as
it is the key to the best route FROM
Salt Lake to Los Angeles.

ditionS.

Special to the Leader.
New York April 25.-The will of
James G. McComb, the former Ohioan,
who died at his home in Dobbs Ferry,
was formally attested in White Plains
yesterday. No objection was offered
to proving the will. The value of the
estate is placed at $15,000,000. A cur
ious clause in the will which has ex-
cited gossip is that relating to the tes-
tator's daughter, Fannie. If she does
not marry Louis Herzog, Philadel-
phia artist, she will get one-fourth of
the residuary estate, now estimated at
$10,000,000. If she does marry Her.
zog she will get an annual income of
$4,000 and 100000 will go to her chill
dren, if she leaves any. Miss Fannie
McComb is living with her stepmother
at Estherwood, the magnificent home
of the late millionaire at Dobbs Fer
ry. Although she has taken few in
to her confidence it is predicted that
she will not marry Herzog. BY re-
specting her fathers wishes she will
be assured of an annual income of
SI25,0O0 and will have $500, 900 in her

Drastic Anti Gambling Laws.

Some little time ago the Belgian
chamber Of deputies passed a some
what drastic anti-gambling law. The
bill has reached the upper house, and
is being discussed in a somewhat
acrimonious tone, and meeting consid-
cradle opposition. Some of the sem
alors point out that gambling is in
herent to human nature, and that If
the law were carried into effect it
would tend to foster clandestine
gambling-houses on an extensive scale.
This argument has been put forward
before. but where the shoe really
~pinches seems to lie in the fact that
the fashionable watering place Of Os-
tend would be the principal sufferer.
The casino there ranks with the fam
Gus gambling hell at Monte Carlo, and
many of the senator's are said to be
financially interested, and hence their
opposition. 1t Is claimed hat II the
casino were abolished the loss to the
town would lie between 81, 500 900 and
S., 1000 900, and that most of the public
works now in progress would have to
be abandoned as they were undertaken
on the strength of the evenu de-
rived from the gaming tables.

How Ono Woman Managed,

A curious outcome of technical edu-
cation for women was shown during
the past year in the case Of a man
who by failure in business wa re-
duced to poverty. He had a capable
family and his daughters at once
sought for situations as dressmakers
and milliners In the latter trade
there was no prospect of immediate
remuneration, as 1t is customary for
beginners to give three months Of SER
vice, both spring and fall. without
receiving wages. The second daugh-
ter got a place to sew in a dressmak-
Ing establishment at small wages, and
the fathers efforts to make a living
were hampered by his advanced years.
Then the mother took a hand. She
had been raised on a farm and sought
and found employment tying up veg
etables for market. In this industry
the chief requisites are careful count
ing and honesty, early rising and in
dustry. She actually made enough
money to keep the family for three
months, but then she did not have
to spend money to dress up to the
situation, and vas paid for her work
at the end Of each day.-Philadelphia
Record.

ers from Nebraska looking into the
Wheatland colony in Wyoming, and
others from the drouth-stricken region
have moved to not less promising
places in the irrigated district.
Undoubtedly the recent dry season
was a most effective plea for irIiga-
ton. While farmers who depended on
rainfall were watching their crops
shrivel, the agriculturists in the irri-
gated districts of the west We're com
putting their gains and watching a ris-
ing market with satisfaction. 1t is not
strange that such an object lesson had
its effect on the farmers of the middle
west, and that there has been a sub
sequent demand for irrigated lands.
While Kansas and Nebraska will al
ways be great agricultural states, it
is equally true that there will always
there. The farmer may rave W or
three excellent seasons, but he never
knows when fortune is going to
change. and is never certain that a
drouth or a pest OF grasshoppers will
not wipe out all his profits and set
him back, penniless and discouraged.
In Colorado. or my of the other
states that depend upon irrigation,
there is no such element of chance.
The only demand is a preservation of
forests. and government aid in the
storing up of flood waters. With irri-
cation fully developed, the Rocky
mountain states will become Ravens of
c%ontentment and good fortune for the
farmers who are now battling against
discouraging conditions in less favor,
ed localities.-Denver Republican.
