STORM ON THE COAST.
No Trains Out of Los Angeles Since Sun
 day Bott, Railroads Tied Up


 No trains have arrived here from Los Angeles since Sunday night, and it is probable that trains may get here today. The trouble is at Cajon pass and in the Tehechipi mountain tunnel. Some idea of the storm which pre- vailed in southern California may be rived from the following press report from Los Angeles:
 "rhe worst rain and wind storm that has visited central and southern California in years has been raging since Sunday, doing untold damage to property. It is believed that when re- ports are received from the interior they will show that many lives were lost in the rush of waters, which, in many places, resembled cloud bursts more than rains.
 ''In this city two men are supposed to have lost their lives by the collapse of bridge and many were injured. There were about twenty persons cross ing the Seventh street bridge over the Los Angeles river when the piers, weakened by the rush of water and continual battering of drift wood, sud- denly gave way, precipitating the whole structure into the river. Two of those injured are not expected to live.
 "The river is higher than it has been for fifteen years. The city sewers are all full to overhowing, being unable to carry away the great amount of water which rushes through the streets. Cellars in private houses and in the business districts are consequently | flooded and the loss in damaged stock will be enormous.
 "All trains on both the Southern Pa cific and Santa Fe are tied up, the roads having suffered numerous wash outs in and near the city. Telegraph and telephone wires are mostly down and little news reaches the city except in roundabout way.
 "rhe rainfall up to Tuesday morn | ing, when the storm was practically over, was recorded at 3.30 inches"

School Notes.

The second month closed last Friday.
The first quarters examinations were
held during the last two days of the
week. Reports for the first quarter will
be sent to parents this week. It is hop
ed that parents will examine these re-
ports carefully before signing them. If
the pupils grades are not as high as
desired the Superintendent should be
consulted that he may look after those
falling behind in their grades. Seven
ty-five per cent is the passing grade
and if pupils fall below that. more
work should be required of pupils at
home.
A comparison of the rooms is given
below:

reasons why you should attend and SUP.
port the revival effort new in progress

End. The Church is the conservator
of morals. We cannot maintain a
hlgh standard OF morality If we neg
lect the church.
3rd. Ii the new railroad builds into
the town it is sure to bring class of
people, at least for short time, whose
influence shall not be wholesome to So
society. but yet this will be unavo;da.
bic. 1t will also bring an influx of per-
manent citizenship to the town. We
ought to make moral, as well as finan-
cial, preparation for this. For the sake
OF yourselves, your families and future
generations you ought to attend this
revival.
On the ground of all that is dear and
sacred to the human heart l appeal to
you, fathers and mothers, to lay aside
all strife, envy, malice, prejudice, vari-
ance, bitterness and puerile whims
and come out to the house of God.
There will be meeting every night
this week. Thursday Will be mid week
Sabbath andth will be services as
follows: At 1890 M, 3 p. m. and 100
p. m. During the week there will be
homes open for prayers at 8 y. M, in
every part of the town.
Your support is needed; come and
help US. w. III. MOORE.

some hopes among his friends by
a brighter eye and stronger voice,
Mr.. Simpson had a third hemmor-
rhage-that fatal third which DR..
Minick said he could not rally
from-and from that time only his
marvellous vitality enabled him to
live "a hours longer. During Sun.
day he was very restless and he in
sisted now and then that he want
ed to sit up. Five minutes before
he died he also wanted to sit up,
but DR.. Galloway knew it was i'm
possible for him to do so, as he was
then dying.
He knew that he was dying, but
he bravely fought for life in the
very teeth of death. He remained
concious almost to the last mement,
and he seemed to be taking mental
observations of the rapidity with
which the sands were leaving his
hour glass. He died easy and ap-
parently> entirely free from pain.
For several days he knew that death
was inevitable and he left direc-
tions to be followed. One of these
was that postmortem surgical
examination be made for the bene-
fit of science and humanity, saying
that probably or possibly some fact
would be ascertained relative to the
disease that would benefit some
victim.
When his wife asked about the
justice of his suffering he said: "It
is all right, Jane; the laws of Nature
have been violated some time, and
Nature will punish disobedience to
her rules.
About week ago, when his wife
was grieving, he said to her:
"Never mind, Jane, will be near
you always He then told her his
ideas about the future. They were
to this effect: He believed that his
body would return to the elements
out of which it was created, and
showed a very comprehensive
knowledge of chemistry and physi-
lology in the explanation. As to
the soul, he did not say, but DR..
Galloway interprets his philosophy
to mean that when the body died
it woul d be as the electric current
turned off or as the candle snufed
out. In other words, that the soul
in the future will have no know
ledge of things done while he lived,
any more than it had while in the
flesh conscious knowledge of its ex-
Iistence before his BIRTH What he
meant by telling his wife that he
