The summer resort of Prizes Lake, ten
miles above Omaha, on the Missouri riv-
err was wrecked on Il recent afternoon
when the hill at the eastern end of the
lake gave way under the strain of the
water and fell into the Missouri river,
followed by all the water in the lake.
Two hotels, both crowded, and numerous
cottages owned by wealthy people are
left high and dry on the banks of what
was up to this time one of the finest
summer resorts in eastern Nebraska. For
two weeks it had rained daily in that
vicinity and the streams flowing into the
lake brought great volumes of water
down. The lake had been further deep
ened by building a high dam at the low
er end. Several days ago, when the
water i'll the lake began running over this
dam, men were put to work strengthen
ing the barrier. 1t was thought that all
danger had passed when without a Sign
the banks burst out.

SAY WITCHES STILL LIVE.
Carlisle Couple Tried for Claiming
Supernatural Powers.

A witchcraft case the first since colo
NAL times, was taken cognizance of by
a Carlisle, Pa, magistrate the other day
when Mrs. Susan Stambaugh and her
husband of Mount Holly Springs appear
ed before Magistrate Hughes against
Mrs. William Mcbride xnd Edward Iug.
The Stambaughs testified that the ac-
cused persuaded them that their protlles
were seen in a nearby mountain with
needles stuck through their brains. These,
they said, were getting rusty, and the
lives of their living counterparts could
only be saved by money offering before
the needles broke. Many trips were made
to Mrs. Mcbride and large sums of
money paid, with provision for its return
by the disclosure of a hidden treasure.
The efforts of the impoverished STAN
baughs to raise money to pay the witch
doctors gave their record publicity. Mrs.
Mcbride and Tug were held for court.

This is a signal to unciviliZed natives for
battle. 1t is regarded as challenge, and
almost instantly the natives fell upon the
three explorers and massacred them. Ev-
erything pertaining to their outfit was
carried away to the homes of the natives
on the north borders of the arctic region,
"Old Huskie" himself gave this informa-
ton to Ralph Alstine, agent for the Hud-
son Bay Company, and the story, after
being investigated by DR.. Farlies, was
told by him. He says there is little room
for doubt, as frequent reports have since
come Of the strange implements which
the north natives have in their posses
