Damage Done in This Vicinity
Worst in Years.

The rain storm last night was
the heaviest that can be remem-

the valley for more than fourteen
years
1t has rained and rained before

The Arkansas river at midnight
was higher than at any other time
during the night and as that hour
the water was flowing over the
Florence & Cripple Greek tracks,
and logs and driftwood we're lodg-
ed on the bridge at an early hour
this morning.
The water came down Coal Greek
in raging torrent and people who
have resided here for number of
years claim that it came within
three inches of being as high as it
had ever been during that time.
The work on the Second street
bridge was not damaged any. The
west sbutment is finished and the
volume of water did not in the
least harm it. The cement placed
on the east abutment last evening
had not had time to ''set, and it
was washed away
A big coal wagon standing on
the other side of Green street was
washed down the creek against the
Green street bridge and was over
turned. The obstruction stopped
the weeds and tim Der as it was
going, and the water overhowed
the bank and ran down Main street
and the Cripple Greek tracks and
covered them about eight inches
with mud.
