still raining, and dark, sullen clouds
hang over the city. In twenty-four
hours there have been more than six
inches of rainfall, and the city pre-
sents scene of devastation. An area
eight miles long and two miles wide,
extending from Woodland Hills ave-
nue. to East Cleveland and back to
Madison avenue, was flooded, the wa

feet.
The downpour began at 2 o'clock
Sunday morning. 1t came with the
suddenncss and fierceness of cloud
burst. There was no wind and no
lightning. but the force Of the deluge
was sufficient in itself to sweep every
thing before it, The sewers of the
city were utterly inadequate to carry
off such an immense volume OF water,
and within an hour the streets In the
stOrmswept area were flooded. There
was rushing. swirling stream, ever
increasing in depth, washing away
bridges, street ear and railroad tracks

and culvcrts. For hours nothing seem
cd capable of stemming the tide.

SHOW A HEALTHY GROWTH.
r.torn Towns Have No Reason to
he Ashamed of Their Numer-
ical Progress.


The rapid growth of the cities OF
New England and the Mitdle Atlanlc
states is perhaps the most strlKlng
revelation vet been made by tne
twelfth decennial census. OF the l59
cities of the country having a poPula-
ton of more than $4,000, about oo
had made a greater numerical gam
in the ten years just closed than IN
the ten years preceding SINCE IL
goes without saying, also, that about
the same number grew faster IMAM
the average-325 per cent.--lt IS IN
teresting to ascertain from a study OF
+ba bulletin where these cities are,
considered by sections. Such study
affords an admirable test OF urban
Growth and reveals in striking man
ner the remarkable progress OF the
northwestern part of the country
saws the Boston Transcript.
Of the II cities in the South At
lantic group of states only three grew
faster than the average for the coun-
try. These were Atlanta, Norfolk
and jacksonville. In the south cen
+ral region only out of Is grew
faster than the average. In the west
ern group 6 out of 12 grew faster
than the average. In the north cen
trail group, comprising the states
north Of the Ohio, the old free states
with the addition of Missouri % cities
ont of As made more than average
nrooress With the country thus dl-
vided into five great sections, none OF
+be four so far mentioned shows a
group of cities in which more than
| half were growing faster than the
AVERAGE. The remaining section is the
North Atlantic; in it AZ out of 20 cities
have grown faster than 1925 per cent
In Connecticut all five of its cities oi
This grade made a showing above the
average and this can be said OF no
other state in the union, except
Rhode Island, in which all three did
the same thing. In New Jersey out
of 10 cities were above the average;
in Pennsylvania there were IL out OF
IS: in Maine / out of 1, Portland, and
| in Massachusetts II out OF ~.
It should be borne in mind that the
actual growth of the cities in the
north central region was faster, due
TO the presence of a few cities on the
great lakes, but the number OF cities
TO show this tendency was. as already
indicated. less than in the North ~
lantic states.
The stagnant cities are found II
three regions. in eastern Nebraska
northern Michigan and at the head
waters of the Hudson, Omaha. Lin
coin and Sioux City belong 10 th'
first group; Saginaw and Bay City t'
the second and Troy and Albany t
the third. As a general rule the citiei
have grown faster in the regions o
coal beds or of well-utilized watei
power.
