THE ALLEGHENY'S RISE
HIGHEST POINT EVER KNOWN
 MAY BE EQUALLED.
The Town of Allegheny is a Modern Venice, and Much of Pitts burg is Also Under
 Water.

Pittsburg, Pa., March 1.-At o'clock tonight the Allegheny river marks show 26 feet and still rising. The flood mark of 1SS4-33.3-will in all likelihood be pass- ed. and thirty-ave feet, the highest point ever reached bT the waters here tin lS30 may bos equalled. It is certain that the great damage done by the Si flood will be exceeded by many thousands of dol lars and many more interests will be af- fected. Already 50,00Q men have been made temporarily idle by the forced clos ing down ot mills. factories and other in- dustries, tsnd the number IS nkely to De considerably increased by Monday. TO the timely MaraIngs gwen by the govern ment weather oureau officials to all in- terested. may b" credited the lack of fa- talities.
 Tonight Allegheny is modern Venice. Every stree: m the low-lying district in the city from Herr's Island to the Wes- tern penitentit.ry has more or less water in it. In some places il Is from two to four feet deep. forcing householders eith- CT to abandon their homes or move to the upper floors. All of ,he raiIroad tracks except the Pittsburg. Fort Wayne and Chicago are submel ged and many facto- ries have been closcl. The Western pen- itentiar:- is in particularly bad shade. The water uas flooded the underground DOT tion of ths institution, ruining much fine nlachineIy.
 In Pittshurg proper from the Point to Ninth Street and as far hack as Penn Avenue everything is flooded. Few Pitts burgers n1ve ever before seen the water SC deep cn these streets. The Hotel Lin coin has ten feet of water In it's base ment. while the Victoria and the Boyer Hotels are in almost as bad shape. The Duquesne and the Alvin Theatres were forced IL. abandon their performances to- night ana business in all the districts named has been suspended since noon.
 Every mill along the Allegheny River as far as Thirty-third Street Is closed down. On the south side most of the mills have shut ioWfi. The Pittsbur4 and Lake Erie tracks are under water and the Handle tracks arh being used to~get trains in and out of tae city. The Mo- nongahelaN Water Company supplies this section of the city and this evening the Mononagh ia river took possession of the company's plant, putting out the fires under the boilers s.ad forcing a shutdown.

But the trouble is that while We eat euOugh and generally too much, the stomach, from abuse and overwork, does not properly digest and assimilate 1t, which is the reason so many people re- main thin and under weight; the diges- tive organs do not completely digest the flesh-forming beeksteak and eggs and similar wholesome food.
 There are thousands of such who are really confirmed dyspeptics. although they may have no particular pain or in- convenience from their stomachs
 IT such persons would lay their preju. dices aside and make a regular practice of taking, after each meal. one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets the food would be quickly and thoroughly digest cd, because these tablets contain the na- tural peptones and diastase which every weak stomach lacks, and by supplying this want the stomach is soon enabled to regain it's natural tone and vigor.
 Stuartss Dyspepsia Tablets digest every form of fiesh-forming food. meat, eggs bread and potatoes, and this is the req son they so quickly build up. strengthen and invigorate thin, dyspeptic men, wo- men l&nd children.
 JuyAlids and children, even the most delicate, use them with marked benefit as they contain no strong, irritating drugs, no carthatic nor any harmful ingredient. y Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the most successful and most widely known of any remedy for stomach troubles because it is the most reasonable and scientific of modern medicines.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold by every druggist in the United States and Canada as well as in Great Britain, at 50 cents for complete treatment.
 Nothing further Is required to cure any stomach or to make thin. nervous. dys- peptic people strong. plump and well.

WILL REDUCE ACREAGE
SMALLER CROP OF COTTON
 WILL BE PLANTED.
The Negroes of Dallas are Having Difficulty in Obtaining Ad- vances-Some Political Gossip.
 Negro Man Shot.
Advertiser Bureau,

This has been an exceedingly dull week in Selma in every respect. The weather has been bad and very few planters have been on visit to Selma. Those who were here complained about the wet weather retarding farming operations. Speaking of the agricultural outlook Tor this year, a prominent planter said:
 "On account of the short crop of last year and the low price of the staple good many negroes and small farmers who have to rent, are experiencing tr0u- ble in getting advances this year. The corn crop was almost a complete failure, along with the short cotton crop. ana it is going to take more to run the farmers this year than usual. The consequence fs going to be that great many negroes will not be able to get the corn and mules that they desire, and will plant fewer acres in cotton and corn, but what they do plant will be better worked and VIII be made on the least possible amount Of money.
 "In my past experience 1t has nearly always been the case, that good crop nearly always follows a failure. The farmers have to make the crop following a failure on less money and the conse- ouence is a year of plenty always fol- lows a crop failure. This year the acre age in corn will be about the same as It was last year, but the cotton acreage will be cut down from 10 to 10 per cent.

.Mattre Political. i.

The announcement of ex-Senator Cum ningham of Jefferson for Lieutenant Gov ernor has caused a good deal of talk in political circles in Dallas County during the past week. It was thought for a long time that Senator D., J. Meador of Marengo would have a walkover for the office. and since Senator Cunning hams announcement. sentiment here has changed very materially. A prominent citizen of Marengo remarked to your correspondent this morning:
 "If Senator Meador, had indicated to the people of Marengo that he desired to go back to the State Senate, he could probably have done so without any op- position. But since he has announced for Lieutenant Governor we have been look ing around for another candidate, and while he has not announced, 1t IS more than probable that Judge Sam Woin will be the next Senator from Marengo coun- ty. -4
 Tt is thought in our section that Sem ator Meador is too wise to tie his po- litical fortunes to the coat tail of the op- position to Governor Jelks. If he does that he is a dead duck. and don't you forget 1t. My county is for Jelks and no man need try to run for any office who would attempt to throw the county to Joe Johnston or any of his follwing."
