On Saturday, Nov. 19, at the Con-

southwest of Milroy. Mr.. Smith

marriage and remained in that city
long enough to see President Roose-

that would be the verdict in other
towns where the Sleepy Eye team
ventured. But the Sleepy Eye edi-

after all, is next to prize fighting.

fhey Cost the Lives OF Several Persons IL
the Indian neutrality-suspicious. Fields
Inundated.

Ardmore, 1. T., June 11.-Floods and
cloudbursts in the Indian territory have
cost the lives of several people in the
past week. Three persons were
drowned at Mill Creek yesterday morn
ing. The dead are Mrs. r. H. Wilson,
a two-year-old baby and Miss Fay
Davis. They were asleep in a building
when the cloudburst swept their home
away. The bodies were recovered in
Kiamichi valley. Reports of loss of life
and destruction to property are COM
ing in. Five children of Tony Jones
were drowned. The rest of the family
were saved by climbing trees. One
child was drowned at Bengal. Many
stories are told of thrilling escapes
from the flood. 1t is feared in the
lowlands in Wichita valley that there
will be loss, of life Many families
have been forced to abandon homes
and seek shelter on higher ground.
All streams in this section are out of
their banks. Old Mill Creek is re-
ported ten feet under water. Hundreds
of live stock have been drowned.
Many fields of cotton are inundated.
1t is not expected that the damage
done by the high water can be esti-
mated for week.

SHIPS IN COLLISION.
At Early Dawn the Canada Went to
the Bottom Near Montreal.
OF 10 ON the Vessel All Were Saved
but Five-Sleepfng People Una
ware of Danger Until the
Collision Came.

Montreal, Que, June 13.-The steam
er Canada. bound from Quebec for
Montreal, came into collision with the
collier Cape Breton six miles below
Sorel early Monday. Twenty minutes
later the Canada went to the bottom.
At the time of the collision there were
ITO people on board the Canada Five
were lost; the others were rescued.
The collision occurred just as dawn
was breaking. The Cape Breton lay
at the entrance of the Lake st. Peter
channel waiting for daylight SO as to
find her way through. She was getting
under way when the Canada, making
for Sorel at full speed, came into view.
Just what the collision was due to and
who is responsible for it, has not yet
been determined. 1t would appear that
the Cape Breton had not got Roadway
on enough to answer her rudder, and
that she swerved across the path Of
the passenger boat, her bow striking
the Canada just forward of the paddle
box on the starboard side and tearing
its way half through.
The shock of the collision aroused
the sleeping passengers. The Canada
at once began to settle and as the Cape
Breton did not appear to be seriously
damaged, the passengers were hurried
ly transferred to this steamer In the
excitement some of the passengers
jumped overheard and were picked up
by boats from the Canada and the Cape
Breton.

ENEMIES OF PLANTS.
Agricultural Departm Issues Bull
1etin Telling of the Immeasur-
able Losses the Past Year.

Washington, June 13.-The destruc-
ton wrought on crops by countless
plant enemies throughout the country
is revealed by a report issued by the
department of agriculture on plant
diseases in 1903" Besides the mass
of detail regarding conditions in the
United States proper, it shows that the
coffee leaf blight has accidentally been
introduced in Porto Rico and measures
are being taken to stamp it out. Cocoa
in Porto Rico is affected by black
pod rot canker and rot disease. The
tomato blight has practically ruined
the tomato crop of Porto Rico. A po-
tato rot has caused the loss of nearly
the entire potato crop.

TO BE ONE SOCIETY.
Pythfan SisterhOOd Has Been As
simulated by Rathbone Sisters
Terms of Reconstruction.

Cleveland, O., June 1.-THE ma
tional heads OF two women's organiza-
tons, the Rathbone Sisters and the
Pythian Sisterhood, at a conference
here prepared a definite plan whereby
the two societies are to be amalga-
mated under a new name. The state
associations of the two societies are
meeting here now. The terms pro-
posed by the Pythian Sisterhood and
which have been agreed to by the
Rathbone Sisters is that the past Off
GERS of the Pythian Sisterhood retain
their rank in the united Organization;
that the admission of Knights Of
Pythias as honorary members be op-
tional with each temple or local lodge
and that the larger body (the Rath-
bone Sisters), bear the cost of recon-
struction and assimilation.
