Cincinnati, April 2S-The Ohio river
has been stationary here and for some
distance below Cincinnati since 8
o'clock yesterday morning. when the
limit of 59.65 feet was reached. Those
depending on the prediction of the
limit not exceeding IS feet have suf-
fered, since the stage became almost
ten feet above the danger line. Local
Forecast Official Bassler said last
night:
II look for the river to remain sta
tionary until tomorrow morning, when
there may be perceptible fall.
think the flood will decline very slow
ly and that it will take six days be-
fore a stage of Is feet will be reached.
A reduction to so feet, the danger line
at Cincinnati, will not come before
Monday"
Favorable weather is reported
throughout the Ohio valley and relief
is confidently expected. The conditions
on both sides of the river here are
quite serious. The Ludlow lagoon suf-
fered much damage, as well as the
Newport race track and other places
on the Kentucky side. On both sides
of the river public storehouses have
been opened for the destitute by the
municipal authorities, but there is no
call for public aid. Many sick have
been removed from inundated houses
to hospitals. Relief committees have
been organized at many places above
Cincinnati, where there is distress.
1t is estimated that 500 residences
have been inundated in the east end
of Cincinnati and more on the West
side along Mill creek valley. These
do not include flooded districts along
the frontage of the Ohio river, where
tenement houses, as well as business
interests suffered. On the Kentucky
side from Covington through Newport,
Bellevue and Dayton, the situation is
equally distressing. Thousands are
out of work here and up the valley, but
most of them will resume Monday.

Prof. Gustave Bischof of the Glas-
cow university has invented new
process for the manufacture Of white
lead. His plan is the conversion of
metallic lead into litharge, by means
of water gas at a temperature Of 800
degrees centigrade, to suboxide. Suf1i-
cient water is then added to moisten
this suboxide, which is converted into
hydrate. This substance is then inserted
into gas-tight apparatus, and by
means of carbonic and diluted acetic
acid manufactured into white lead.
Under the old process white lead oc-
cupied from two to three months in
its manufacture, but Prof. Bischof is
enabled to make purer article within
less than forty-eight hours at a much
cheaper price and with perfect safety
to the employees.

SUMMARY.

With this number, the issue OF the
weekly crop bulletin, for the season
OF 1901 begins.
The past week, as we'll as the first
part OF the month, has been generally
uniavorable for farm work, especially
in the. eastern and northern portions
OF the state. Previous to the past week,
some small amount of wheat had been
sown in especially favorable locations,
and preparations for seeding were be-
coming general, when series OF rain
storms, followed by SNOW, set iii,
closely followed by heavy frosts, which
froze the surface OF the ground, so that
next to no work could be done in the
forenoon in most localities, and i'll
some places, none i'll the afternoon.
In the southern part OF the state
some wheat that was sown the latter
part OF March came up, but has been
frozen down. In the eastern counties
the soil is very wet, and considerable
sunshine is needed to dry it out and
warm it SO that seed will terminate.

serious break in the lines of the strik-

more complete by a provision to keep
mosquitoes from introducing germs of
disease into the huge reservoirs which
have been cut out of the side of the
rock. Each tank is rendered mosquito
prouI by means of gauze wires. The
millions of gallons Of water, which a
siege would render an important re-
source, may be reckoned among the as
sets of defensive works which are a
symbol, the world over, for impregna-
bility: Not even the mosquito will be
permitted to capture the stronghold.

President Hadley of Yale made e
striking classification of society in a
recent address on the development OF
a public conscience. Humanity, he
said, is made up of two classes. Indi-
viduals of the one participate in the
business of life for what they can get
out of it, of the other for what they
can put into it. 1t is not, however, a
paradox that those who put most into
life are also, in the largest and best
sense, those who get most out of it.

The constitution of the Uniteo
States, in prescribing the methods by
which it may be amended, virtually
forbids amendment in one particular.
No state is to be deprived without its
consent of it's equal suffrage in the sen
ate. The first state to ratify the con-
stitution was Delaware, and yet the
senate has no members from Delaware.
1t is greatly to be regretted, even if
Delaware's failure to be represented is
by it's own consent.
