HEAVY LOSS BY THE STORM.
widespread Damage by Last unday'
Delug OF Rain Up the state.

UTICA, Dec. 2I.-Tho deluge OF rain IN
| central and northern New York last Sunday
caused very heavy damage. The Oldest
inhabitants in the townships never saw
the like.
Town boards are alarmed at the damage
done. A town that did not lose two or
three bridges Us considered lucky.
Within twelve hours after the water
rose, town officials began to receive tele-
grams from bridge constructing concerns
stating that representatives were on the
way 10 figure on new bridges. Bridge
builders will profit as a result Of the storm
The railroads were hit hard. Washouts
were reported everyw here. One bridge
400 feet long on the Mohawk and Malone
road at Hinckley Is a wreck. Ten miles
from Hinckley two spans OF another large
bridge went down the West Canada Creek
1t took three days TO get the Mohawk and
Malone road into shape for running trains
and the Rome, WATERFOWL and Ogdens-
burg road had one division tied up even
longer. The loss TO the Central-Hudson
Railroad system h~ereabouts. according
TO one railroad man. will exceed $500 900,
to say nothing about the delay TO traffic.
The dam at Noblesboro. Herkimer county.
started much Of the trouble In Oneida and
Herkimer counties. II was flled with
several million feet OF logs.
These went down with the rushing waters
to Hincklev. broke a dam there and carried
about is, 600 tons of pulp wood owned by
the Hinckley Fibre Company. down, the
West Canada Creek, over the electric hight
compauy's dam a. Trenton Falls. and down
the West Canada Valley to Herkimer ard
then to the Mohawk. Everything that got
in the way was brushed aside.
Woodmen were sent down the Mohawk
Valley as far a. Schenectady IN the hope
that there would he a log jam In the Mohawk
River, but none was formed. IL Is believed
that 100 600 logs are now floating down the
Mohawk and Hudson rivers 10 the sea.
The damage to the wood and pulp con
Germs and private property owners along
the West Canada Greek will reach q quarter
OF n million dollars. A log boom owned
hy the Gould Paper Company at Lyon =
Falls broke In the Moose River and 3,OOO,ooO
feet of logs got away. They are scattered
ali over the fat lands along the Black River
IL il estimated that the damage TO tn"
roads and bridges in the counties of Oneida
Uerkimcr. lewis. Oswego, Jefferson and
-, Lawrence will be- between SIS 900 and
500 900. There is scarcely one OF the l36
towns in these c~ounties which scaped
the fury Of the water and in some town
ships three and four bridges have been
destroyed.
No estimate can be given Of the damage
10 manufacturing interests. but II II ielteved
that 81 600 go will not square things WIN
the manufacturing industries and lumber
and pulp mills

come back. He suggested that the inventory
he completed and the whole collection
taken over by the British authorities.
For his part he was a loyal British sub
ject and would not complain If they de-
ported him down TO Cape Town 80 that
no suspicion Of him as a secret service agent
should be harbored by his British fellow
subjects.
II happened just az he planned. With the
liberal ideas OF amateur appraisers who are
valuing other peoples goo6s when the
owner IL present and an expert the officers
Of Army Service Corps gave him certified
vouchers stamped for the sum agreed upon
for all his belongings, and Blankenberg
departed from his store and concealed his
contentment.
Another to find himself alone against a
multitude was Sam Marks, millionaire,
member Of the financial house which had
the concession Of several 1ransyaal mon
opolies, including the manufacture OF
alcohol. His fine private residence eight
miles northeast Of Pretoria, nee" Gerste
Fabriken, had bathrooms. billiard rooms.
gardens and an enclosure for tame pets.
When a British brigade was quartered
near his doors Mr.. Marks. septuagenarian.
found himself the least considerable person
on his own property. The junior stan and
others made free OF his bathrooms and
billiard rooms without first troubling TO
make their hosts acquaintance. II they
did have anything to say TO him 1t was TO
demand the whereabouts Of something they
wanted.
DC anything YOU like, only let me alone.
I'm a busy man. he pleaded.
They did everything they liked. To get
frewood they uprooted the posts round
his tame animal enclosure. II any OF the
pets strayed a little il was o brought
down with an army bullet.
Ahot argument sprang up over the correct
name OF the pet deer that was shot. and the
sportsmen marched into Mr.. Marks's room
to learn what il was. He was resigned to
anything that might happen and told them.
Dear little thing. he used to eat out Of

FROM PJLPIT TO TRUCK FARM
low q Preachers SHIFT Caused by . bargain
In q Fire Alarm Bell.


The Rev. John Poteet was a Baptist min
lister in an Iowa town some twenty years
ago. He is now living in retirement on
a Long Island farm.
He quit preaching twelve years ago
and occasionally he is seen in Fulton Market
selling truck from his farm. The other
| day, after he had disposed Of a wagon
load. he accepted an invitation from the
purchaser TO join the latter at luncheon.
The purchaser expressed some curiosity
at the leap Of the Rev. John Poteet from
the church to a truck farm on Long leland.
The ex-dominie explained it in this way:
Il was always a great revivalist, = he said.
1T was my hobby. lived in a community
that had TO be roasted in order 20 get re-
suits. No fine spun theological theories
would do the business.
And even when | had anded a load OF
sinners il kept the busy keeping EN- rounded
up. We Baptists don't believe in back
sliding. but in Iowa | had to he a sort Of
a Methodist about half the time.
After a good deal of hard work ] sue
ceeded in getting our church paid for.
Then the question Of getting a bell for the
meeting house came up and We raised
enough money To buy one.
Il was commissioned TO get il. went
TO Burlington TO look one up.
After inquiry | was told 10 zee the Mayor.
He said the city was about to tear down
an engine house which had a bell on it.
VI went around 10 see il and while
the fremen had the horses down at the
river To give EN- "a drink, the Mayor gave
the bell a few lively turns IN order thru |
might near the tone. He said II could be-
heard all over town.
After a good deal Of dickering with his
Honor We agreed ON terms. He threw
III o.. which he called d contribution TO
the church left for home. the bell Mas
shipped and reached us all right.

KIDNAPPED A PRESIDENT.
h Recent Death Of the Only Man Thas
Ever Did the Trick.
From hs Louisville Courier-Journol.


FROM INC Lon'st'"e cou''e'-|ou'no"
To go down In history as the only person
who ever kidnapped a President OF the United
States should be enough for ono man. and
this distinction belongs 10 'apt | 'oIe-
man. who died yesterday. The episode makes
one OF the most interesting stories OF a career
fruitful OF anecdotes.
That was in those old DAYS before the rail-
roads had bound the land with steel. the days
just after the Mexican War, when the Missis-
sippi was the grand water road Of the country's
progress, and the floating palaces that piled
from Louisville 10 New Orleans were famou,
on two continents Zachary TAYLOR was pras-
