When we had the food last year
1t was said that Frank Reall, the
well known tonsoriai artist, tied q
heavy cable around his dwelling
house and then hitched it fast to a
wheelbarrow and then drove nail
into the end of log to see how
fast the river was rising. tits now
reported that he has improved his
methods and by doing so escaped
the food of yesterday by staying
up all night and with a bucket In
his hand bailed out his back yard
all night and by this means kept
the water out of his house. We
cannot say whether all these stories
are true or not, but we are a little
doubtful about them. In fact, we
had intended to say nothing about
the matter until he stood on his
own high house and saw rs push

a telephone message from his

They told him they were having a
busy time of it as they had to move
two ton of dried apples twice out of

There Is very little travel now In
the Ohio Valley except at New
Martinsvllle, the booming city.
where there Is a steady travel day
and night-from the second story
to the garnet and out on to the
roots of the mansions In that city.
Will somebody please explain
why 1t was necessary to shut off the
gas on Water street during the
food and have the people sit around
shivering and cold and the floors
frozen ever with Ice. We eau
think CT no reason for this and it Is
cruel treatment.
SO the Presbyterian creed Is to be
reinterpreted instead of revised. In
this way the doctrine of infant dam
nation Is to be gotten rid of without
seeming to slight the late John Cal

of rational plety. and 1t is likewise
good for the babies.

dence will please take notice.
There is one very great saiisfac-
ton many of the residents of South
Water and Catherine streets and
Mccoy avenue will have after the

be through their spring house

that blows some good into the door
of few homes at least.
1t Is to be hoped the proper au
thorities will see that the streets
are hosed off as fast as the water
recedes. Mccoy avenue should be
given especial attention, as 1t will
not only be besmeared with mud
but ice also. A force of men neces.
sary to clean the streets as fast as
the water falls, should be put to
work and kept at 1t until the water
