ers Of the Chicago & Northwestern

lis 4 Omaha railroads will be asked to
at once ratify plans for the extension
Of the Northwestern into Denver.
The connection is from Valentine,
Nebraska, to Scranton, Colorado, and
from Valentine to Mitchell, South Da-
kota. 1t is expected that the action Of
the stockholders will be unanimously
in favor Of the plans.
When the board of directors OF the
Chicago d Northwestern met last
Wednesday in New York 1t took up the
question OF the extension and decided
to submit the plan to the stockholders
at once. so that no delay would be en-
countered In the construction OF the
road. II is presumed that the voting.

within week or ten days, and by May

THE SLEEPER AWAKENED
Being tho story Of Cleveland Amateur
Photographer


Being tho story of Cleveland Amateur
Photographer
There is n West Side boy who is quite
daft on the subject of photography,
says the Cleveland Plaindealer. He
isn't satisfied with the mere taking of
pictures-anybody can train camera
on a scene or sitter-but he aims
Mt securing novel effects, something
out Of the common run of subjects. At
times this leads him into unpleasant
predlcaments-though there Is nobody
like your devoted camera field for
wrlggling out of trouble; and some
times 1t is unpleasant for the other fel-
low.
One evening not long ago he planned
n surprise for his brother. Incidental
ly he meant to secure his portrait un-
der circumstances that perhaps have
never been exactly duplicated.
Usually he retlres ut reasonably
early hour, but this evening he was In
no hurry. He waited until his brother
was In bed and presumably asleep,
and then he stole up to their room with
his camera and load Of flashlight
powder.
He listened for moment to his
brothers. regular breathing, and then
he quietly planted his apparatus and
prepared for action.
When all was in readiness he sud
denly let out n wild war whoop, and
rs his startled brother rose in terror
he touched Off the flashlight and snap
ped the scene.
1t may be imagined that the victim,
when he had quieted down his trem.
bling nerves, Yves determined to ham,
mer the photographer good and plenty,
but, as usual, the scamp escaped.
He calls his picture "The Sleeper
Awakened" and thinks 1t is one Of the
best things in his collection.

EXPORT TRADE BRINGS

Washington, ID. C., April 22-Thc
fiscal year 1901 seems likely TO exceed

DESTRUCTIVE STORM STRIKES
PENNSYLVANIA AND OHIO

P1ttsburg, Pa, April 21.-The most
widespread and destructive storm.
from material point of view. ever
known here, has passed. It has left n
zone OF ruin 200 miles In diameter. II
was unusual In that 1t possessed SO
many different features.
Cities seventy miles from Pittsburp
were tied up by one of the worst snow
storms ever known. While the snow.
1all was from eighteen inches to three
feet deep, which is not extraordinary.
the snow was so wet that 1t clung In
welghty masses to shade and fruit
trees and electric wires and poles,
bearing them to the earth. 1t settled
on steam and street railways like wet
SAND, stopping all traffic and making
pedestrianism almost impossible. The
fall was so heavy and spontaneous in
some places that the residents declare
1t seemed like the bursting of a snow
cloud.
In addition, nearly every town on the
Ohio river between Pittsburg and
Wheeling is in darkness tonight. Flee
tric light plants or their wires are dam
aged and the gas In the mains Is gen.
ernily turned Off to prevent explosions.
80 half million or more people to-
night are cropping about in the dark.
The money loss Is just as difficult to
root up. 1t may reach $30OO,OOO. The
railroads think they have lost $1,000
OOO. The. loss Of wages to the army of
workers In manufacturing plants up
and down the rivers will mount I'm to
S5Oo,OOO. and the repairs to plants will
he large sum. The damage to stores,
stock, residences and furniture in
Pittsburg, Allegheny and towns and
cities down the Ohio will probably
reach 100000.
The telegraph companies have suf-
Tered severely, but cannot yet compute
their losses.

At Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania, the
damage by the flood and storm was
considerable.
Waynesburg is isolated and many
houses there are flooded.
At Aticanna about twenty houses

Fifty thousand workers are suffering

Big land slides occurred on the Lake
Erie and Baltimore & Ohio at Shosho,
on the Panhandle, on the South Side,
the Bessemer ut several points and the
Allegheny Valley near Franklin, Penn
sylvania.t The slide mt Shosho was 100
feet long, and 1t required fourteen
hours work to clear one track.
The submerged districts In Pittsburg
and Allegheny are to-day scene of
abject misery. Cellars, and in some
instances the first floors of stores and
dwellings, are covered with water.
Where the flood has subsidized 1t has
left behind a greasy, yellow scum two
to three inches deep.
Cincinnati, April 21.-There has been
more alarm throughout the Ohio val
ley to-day on account OF floods than at
any period since February, 1884, when
the Ohio river reached It's highest
stage OF seventy-one feet nine inches
at this city. Most OF the Inhabitants
of the valley spent the night In antici-
patton Of the worst flood ever known
in the valley, us they will not know
until tomorrow that the water has
begun falling at Pittsburg.
Until this news reached river men
here tonight 1t was feared that the
record OF 1884 might be broken, but
now 1t is generally believed that the
river will not exceed the floods OF Feb
ruary, 1897. and OF March. 1898. when
1t reached sixty-one feet at Cincinnati.
