MAN-MADE
FLOODS
AND RUIN
eStructiOnOtFOreStS
Cause of the
FreShetS
Springs no Longer Exist. and
Streams Dry In Summer
Torrents In the
Spring

Before 1852 there was a good boat
ing stage of water through the oper
season In the Western rivers. This
ranged in the Ohio and Misslssippl
from twelve to fifteen feet. Now. in
nearly all the rivers. there are periods
when the water Is very high. and
other periods when II Is very low.
Forty years ago the smaller rivers
and streams in Ohio. PENNSYLVANIA
and New York-many OF them fed by
springs--had regular flow the year
around, and were full to the banks.
The man who returns to his old home
In these states now finds these creeks
and rivers almost dry In the summer
and raging torrents in the spring.
Many OF the springs famous forty
years ago are no longer In existence.
streams that then gave a regular sup.
ply Of water to hundreds Of farms are
now In the summer time simply a ser.
les of pools. Even In our largest rivers
In the dry season there Is scarcely
water enough for navigation, while In
the spring come great floods like that
now raging in the Missouri and It's
tributaries.
There is a reason for this change.
Fifty years ago the native forests IN
Ohio, Pennsylvania and New York
were in their wild state. The trees
had not been cut and the underbrush
had not been cleared away. Now these
forests have all been cut. Where there
We're square miles OF forests there are
now square miles as bare OF trees as
the pralries IN Illinois.
Forty years ago the headwaters OF
all our great river systems were In
highlands covered with trees. Grad.
ually inroads were made upon these
forests. and the mountains IN which
are found the fountains OF the Ohio
river system are now denuded. In
the mountain regions at the source Of
the Missouri and its tributaries two.
thirds Of the timber has been cut
In Wisconsin and Minnesota. on the
headwaters Of the Mississippi. 30 per
cent OF the trees have been cut.
The full significance OF this state.
ment OF conditions is apparent only
when the extent OF the basin drained
by the Ohio or the Missouri Is consld.
cred In detail The disastrous spring
food In the Ohio river came from the
mountains OF Georgia. Alabama. Ten.
lessee, Kentucky, Virginia. West vlr.
glnia. Pennsylvania and New York.
The cause OF this Ohio river food
Is plain. There was a heavy rainfall
in February. Warm weather came at
the same time. and rapidly melted the
snow. Under the present conditions
this unusual amount OF water found
lts way all at once 10 the main stream.
Under natural conditions the rain
would have been caught by the trees
and brush. The snow. shaded by the
forests. would have melted slowly.
The soil sheltered by the vegetation
and made porous by roots, would have
absorbed the water This water would
have fed thousands OF springs. and
slowly filtered 10 the great river. But
the denuded hillsldes turned the wat.
er like a roof. and every mountain
stream became a torrent, pouring lis
food into the greater Ohio river food.
Later similar conditions prevailed
at the headwaters Of the Missouri.

May Play With Albany.

lengthy article in the sporting
columns of yesterdays Albany, N. Y,
Times says that Barney McFadden, Of
town, has agreed to play during the
coming season with the base ball club
of that city, providing satisfactory ar
rangements can be made with the New
ark, N. j., team, with which the local
player signed recently. Albany claims
to have been the first to apply this sea-
son for McFadden's services, but
through Misunderstanding failed to
negotiate contract. Barney then
signed with Newark, but has notified
Albany that he is willing to play in the
latter city If his release from the Jersey
club can be obtained.
McFadden is one of the most promis-
ing young players Of the country and
the demand for his services shows that
he is bound to rise higher in the game.

Miners Miss Awful Death.

Fifty men barely escaped death in a
cavern at the No. 10 Erie Company col
liery at Mosaic yesterday morning. The
mine has been squeezing" for several
days and became so dangerous yester-
day that the superintendent ordered out
all the men. Then he sent In fifty ex-
perienced miners to stand timbers where
the roof was weak. They we're at work
when the fall occurred, when it gave
them sufficient warning to enable them
to run.
William Conway was caught and had
his legs crushed, while several of the
others were hurt by flying particles OF
coal, but all got out alive.
The cavern extended over two acres
and the mine is still squeezing" Much
damage has been done and more is
anticipated.

FISHING POND
DESTROYED
Valley Company Tears Out
Hayes Creek Dam.
FreeIand Sportsmen Builtlt
One and One-HaIf Years
Ago at a Cost Of Nearly
$l,OOO--Fishers Angry.

Local fishermen we're angry last even
ing when they learned that their dam
on Hayes creek, near White Haven, had
been destroyed by force of workmen
of the Lehigh Valley Railroad Company.
The news was brought to town by
Hugh Malloy and w. J. Brogan, two
prominent members of the Freeland
Game and Fish Protective Association,
who went yesterday to view the dam.
The scene of destruction which met
their gaze was appalling.
While on the ground they learned
that the destruction of the structure
in which considerable money and labor
had been invested was accomplished BY
a gang OF the railroad company's work
men, under direction of Joseph Hartley,
a section foreman OF the road.
The dam was found to be a complete
wreck and the thousands of young trout
with which 1t was recently stocked
have been set free.
The action of the railroad company,
it is learned, was based on the claim
that the damned waters were menace
to the company's property along the Le-
high river, into which Hayes creek
empties.
The owner Of the land adjoining the
waters OF the pond, Mr.. Keck, was re-
Gently notified by perintendent Keith,
of the Wyoming division of the Lehigh
Valley Railroad, to remove the dam.
This he refused to do, and the company
acted as above stated this week.
The dam was built in the summer OF
1901 with money contributed by the
fishermen Of Freeland and nearby vii
lagos, many of whom besides contribut-
ing cash gave several days labor to the
work. Its cost was In the neighborhood
OF 81 900 and it was considered by ex.
perts who had viewed it to be one Of the
most substantial structures Of its kind
in the state.
1t withstood the destructive freshets
of December, 1901, aud February, 1902
when similar dams and strong bridge:
were swept away, and this proof OF Its
stability was highly priced by the meu
who planned its design and paid theii
money for its erection.
During the past year and one-half up
wards OF 10000 trout fry had been plac
ed in the pond by State Fish Warder
Hugh Malloy. The fry came from the
state hatchery at Allentown, and loca
sportsmen were looking forward to &
successful fishing season as a reward fol
the money and labor placed in the dam
1t is said that the members Of tn,
Game and Fish Club are consulting
legal authorities in regard to the matter
and further developments may be ex
pected.

miners. The law requires that annual
reports of the work done by miners
examining boards be made to the court,
but this does not seem to have been
done In Luzerne county.
The law is very plain setting forth the
duties of the boards of examiners. Sec
tion 4, of the act Of 1897, reads:
Each applicant for examination and
registration and for the certificate shall
pay fee of 81 to the board and a fee of
25 cents for registering, and the amount
derived from this source shall be held
by the boards and applied to the ex-
penses and the salaries and the boards
shall report annually to the court OF
common pleas OF the county and the
bureau of mines and mining all moneys
received and disbursed, together with
number of miners examined and register
ed under this act and the number who
failed to pass the required examination.
Each board must keep an accurate
record Of the proceedings of all its meet
ings and this record must show correct
detailed account OF the examination OF
each applicant, with the questions asked
and their answers. and at each of its
meetings the board shall keep this re-
cord open for public inspection"
Section 5, OF the same act, says:
"Any person who shall violate or fail
to comply with the provisions of this
act shall be guilty of a msdemeanor,
and on conviction thereof shall be SEN
fenced to pay fine Of not less than
S1OO or more than $500, and shall under
go Imprisonment of not less than thirty
days or more than six months"
Section 9 provides that upon convic-
tion of any members OF the miners ex-
aminng board for. violation of this, in
addition to the penalties herein pro-
vided, his Office shall be declared va
cant, and he shall be deemed Ineligible
to act as member Of said board"

THEATRICAL.

Magician Keene, who comes to the
Grand opera house tomorrow evening,
is a truly brilliant performer who seems
to have entered his difficult calling more
for the love of it than from necessity.
He is considered one OF the greatest
masters Of magic the world has yet
seen, having produced more new illu-
sions in the past ten years than any
other living magician has presented in a
lifetime.
The possessor of marked mechanical
ability and ingenuity, he studies the
likes of those who delight In the art of
magic and gives them more than their
moneys worth In his diversified program.
In addition to being great magician
polished, gentlemanly style and ready
wit making valuable setting for his
magical ability.
Way Down East" last night repeated
its feat Of two years ago by drawing an
audience that filed the Grand opera
house. The sad story of Anna Moore's
mock marriage was unfolded by a
strong company, and the acting and
scenery were in keeping with the spirit
of the famous play. Every member OF
the company was equal to his or her
part, and the blending Of pathos and
comedy was performed in a manner
that can be done only by real artists.
