which prevailed through this section
for the past two days is n OF the
most disastrous ever known here.
The trestle which leads over the
Piermont branch is a total wreck.
Western trains are unable to proceed
beyond this place. The town of Hill
burn, one mile from here, is cut OF,
as all the bridges have been washed
away. The town of Ramapo is almost
in ruins. Many people are homeless.
Less Will Reach Thousands.
Philadelphia, Oct. 13. - Delaware

flooded for a distance of two miles at
high tide yesterday afternoon. The
cellars of most of the business houses
on Delaware avenue in the Hooded

goods valued at many thousands or
dollars were either entirely ruined or
damaged.
Millions to Repair Damage.
Easton, Pa, Oct. 13.-The Delaware
river began t recede about midnight
and continues to fall rapidly. The
Lehigh and Bushkill are still backed
up for miles and everything along
their banks is flooded. 1t is inpossi-

proximate it, but in Easton and towns
UP and down the Delaware it will take

A Boston Woman Takes Issue With
the Race Suicide Theory of :.
President Roosevelt.
She Declares That While Man Can

New York Sun Special Service.

New York Sun Special Service.
Boston, April 2S.-Before the members
Of an organization called the Mothers and
Fathers club, Mary A. Livermore spoke
Of Child Culture and took issue with
President Roosevelt and President Eliot
on the race suicide question. She said:
I'VE need to listen more to talk about
the culture of fathers and mothers than
we do to the culture of the child, it seems
to me. There are two mighty factors that
enter into the making of individuals and
of~nations. These factors are heredity
and environment. There are man and
women who are unfit to be the parents Of
children. At the present time we have to
depend upon environment. In many cases
it is better to take children away from
their natural parents so that they may
have a chance to do better
THE need is not more. children but bet
ter ones. 1t would not be race suicide if
we were to have more homes into which
only two or three children were born.
Quality and character signify more than
a horde" ,. -,..
Mrs. Livermore said that the worth or
worthlessness of a home depends upon the
woman first. .-. ~.
But motherhood" she said, must be
supplemented by an enlightened father
hood. A man cannot make a home; He
an .h,.lla q pslass, hl1s
,canr0t tufn It Into a home. A woman
can make a. home alone, but it is better
for her to have a man If she can. Let
your daughters grow up to think that they
are to be mothers and homen1akers. All
women have an aptitude for motherhood -

New York. April 2S.-Daisy Hoffman,
the 17-year- old girl who ran away from
her home at 1897 Second avenue, dressed
in boys clothes, is at home again.
Policeman Moore saw a nice looking boy
walking toward him in Lexington avenue
yesterday. The boy wore checked trou-
sers turned up at the bottom, patent
leather shoes, a gray waistcoat a black
serge sack coat and black fedora hat
The hat rested lightly on golden hair
which had been cut rather short. The
boy puffed on cigarette. A gold watch
chain was stretched across his waistcoat
Fine looking boy that mused Moore
aloud to a friend who was talking to him
Small feet and little knock -kneed, but
isn't that a small waist And curves
gee, that's a girl, sure.''
The whole precinct was looking for
Daisy Hoffman. Moore went up to the
boy and asked his name. .a, 49,.
Dave Sullivan was the reply.
Where do you live?" - ..-.s..
"At 1907 Second avenue" =
You're Daisy Hoffman, there's where
she lived" said Moore. -. .,
"Yes, I'm Daisy" said the masuuerader
At the station Daisy said she had al
ways wanted to be boy and had beer
thinking of dressing up as one for some
time. . ,..
"They would not let me have any fur
at home,' she said. II could not 20 to a
dance, they would not let me stay out
after 9 o'clock, and I had to do all the
work OF the house. I got tired Of thai
and they told mel was more like boy
than girl, anyway. Some boys told me
I would make good looking boy, and ]
decided that if I'd dress up as one I could
go out and make a Hving-be a messenger

paid an eloquent tribute to the prowess
Of Grant and told Of how much he did
to bring about the peaceful restoration.
In part he said: g. b." - '.
! EVERY one familiar with the history Of
our country is aware Of the mighty part
played by General Grant in the epoch Of
the civil war, but there are few, even
among his own people, who realize the
effective influence Of his efforts in the
| epoch Of peace.
| "There is not schoolboy in knee
breeches who cannot tell you what General
Grant did to prevent the dissolution OF the
union. There are few statesmen who can
tell you how much he did to procure its
peaceful restoration. No service this
great chieftain ever rendered In his most
brilliant military achievements equals the
great good accomplished by him In his
consistent campaign for practical peace.
! 'If there was glory in the thunder OF
the voice that threw the columns of a
mighty army into the shock of war, far
greater was the glory of the tongue that
framed the message born Of love, crying
to discovered people, Let us have peace.
| ''While the battle-scarred bosoms of our
southern valleys bear unwilling testimony
to the deeds Of this great soldier as ne
marched beneath the flag OF Mars, every
fhill that trembled to the thunder Of his
guns has long since given back the well
come echoes of his greeting, Let us have
peace -sf..
"The hearts of our people caught and
held the inspiration Of his clarion call
| for fellowship and union, which, growing
in strength and volume as the years &c
by is now the grand paean Of nations $
lpraise."
In closing Mr. Howell said: when the
call was recently made for volunteers to
offer their lives if required, in the com
mon cause of the union against spain,
the patriotism of our people found quick
expression in, the response they made to
the drumbeat Of the republic, and the
sons Of federals and Confederates alike
poured out their hearts blood on the altar
of their country's cause.
"None questioned the loyalty and pa
triotism of his comrade in arms, and
northern boys and southern boys marched
shoulder to shoulder under the stars and
stripes to the mingled strains Of Dixie
and Yankee Doodle. Under the, trop-
lical sun Of Cuba and in the Philippines
they have borne between them the sacred
ark of the nations covenant, brave and
| true and patriots, alike moved by the
common impulse of their country's love
and the eternal glory Of its mission
.The peace that Grant commanded has
come at last and 1t is an abiding peace. s
