prospect that 1t would hold during the
night.
The rain storm almost attained the
proportions of cloudburst in the
lower section of Manhattan, and with
in ten minutes many of the down
town streets were flooded to the level
of the sidewalks.
Broad street, in the vicinity OF the
stock exchange, was rendered impas-
sable and the brokers on the curb"
were compelled to hasten the close
of the market and fee before the ris-
ing flood. A torrent rushing down
Broadway, Whitehall street and State
street, poured into the new subway
station at South Ferry, flooding the
tracks nearly to the level of the third
rail and for time threatening to in
terrupt traffic by short-circuiting the
current. The rain ceased within half
an hour, when the flood in the streets
rapidly subsidized.
During the height of the storm the
administration building on Ellis Is
land, where there were 1000 immi-
grants, was struck by lightning twice,
but sustained only trifiing damage.

BOY HERO WINS:
CHIEF OF DEPARTMENT

Jobs in the department, though he has
been in the government service only
three years. The place pays $4,000 a
year.
Covert was a shell carrier on the
cruiser Baltimore at the battle of Ma
Mia bay. and was the most seriously
wounded American in the engage
ment. He was knocked down by the
concussion of a gun, and the heavy
she'll which he was carrying crushed
bone In his leg. He refused surgi-
cal attention and demanded that he
be carried to his gun, whict he helped
handle until the last Spanish flag went
down. Then he went to the hospital
and narrowly escaped losing his leg.
Naval discipline was not suited to
Covert's nature, and he was frequent
ly on the carpet for violations Of the
regulations. His bravery and conse,
quent popularity with the officers
saved him severe punishment, but he
was fined SO often that he drew only
S115 for three years service.

Why the Body Needs Water.


Someone has asked: What would be
the cause of death of a person who
drank no water?" This subject has
been studied considerably; animals
have been experimental upon, and
1t is found that without water they
lose their power to eliminate the nat
ural poisons; they must have water in
order to eliminate them, otherwise
the secretions become too dense.
Without water, the amount of urea
which should be secreted becomes d.
minished, and SO with the other So
cretions. We need water, not only to
dissolve the food and carry it along,
but we need 1t to dissolve and carry
out Of the system the poisonous and
WORKOUT material OF the body, after 1t
has served Its purpose. Water forms
circulating medium for carrying sub
stances back and forth in the sys-
tenn, conveying nourishment to the
various parts Of the body, bringing
back the used-up material and carry
ing 1t out by way of excretory ducts.
The amount Of water daily required
is from two to three pints. In very
hot weather larger amount is need
ed, as much water 10 lost by perspIra-
ton. II ones diet consists largely Of
the juices Of fruits. the quantity Of
water may be considerably diminished.

Stable and Conditions.

''The condition and health of a
horse" says the National Builder, "de-
pend very much upon the kind Of
stable 1t is kept in. There are horses
which suffer from disease Of the eyes,
from coughs, from scratches and
other skin diseases, all of which are
produced by the pungent, foul air In
the stables. Farmers and others who
have horses will take pains to keep
their carriages and harnesses protect

the stables, lest the leather may be
rotted or the yarnish dulled and spot

suffer from other diseases which, If
they would only think for few min

due to the foul air the animals are
compelled to breathe every night in
the year while confined in close, badly

William C. Gates, better known as
"Swiftwater Bill" one Of the most
noted characters Of early Klondike
days, is defending the second divorce
suit brought by his third wife. The
case is being tried in Seattle. Gates
in the early days at Dawson was a
much-talked.of person because Of his
marriage and strange courtships. The
wife who is now suing him for divorce
brought suit last April, but the court
refused to grant decree and no pro-

Of the marriage. At the present time
Gates is working some rich claims
and is reported to have again made a
fortune. Mrs. Gates. formerly dance

The opinion today declaring the act
to be illegal and unconstitutional was
concurred in by all members Of the

The court holds that the construc.

in violation Of the state statute which
declares:

The construction and operation OF

discovery Of great quantities Of oil in

the industry and the general public
complaint that particular corpora

rightfully belonged to him, and that a

Insomnia.
This very common condition IL
most often due to SIX o'clock dinners
or eating in the evening. To secure
sound sleep, no food should be taken
after 4 p. M, or at least nothing more
than little ripe stewed fruit, without
cream, and with as little sugar as pos
sible, better with none. Oranges or
some other juicy fruit are preferable
for an evenings lunch. Avoid bread
and butter or milk, and similar arti-
Giles which digest slowly. Fruit juices
and completely predigested food sub.
stances may be added in moderation.
Tea and coffee also produce sleep.
lessness. Sedentary habits conduce
to sleeplessness by promoting the &C.
emulation Of uric acid, which is a
nerve excitant, and gives rise to rest,
lessness and disturbing dreams.
Said the wise man, "The sleep Of
the laboring man is sweet" Eccl. 5:12.
Gentle fatigue produced by exercise
out Of doors is wonderfully effective
as means of producing sleep. A
prolonged bath, fifteen to forty min
utes, or even longer II necessary, at
a temperature Of 80 degrees to 95 de-
grees f., taken just before retiring, Is
an excellent remedy for sleepless-
ness. The moist abdominal bandage,
consisting Of towel wrung quite dry
out of cold water and wound around
the body, covered snugly with mack
intosh and then with flannel in suf-
ficient quantity to keep 1t warm, is an
exceedingly helpful measure in pro-
ducing sleep in cases in which Sleep
lessness is due to excess of blood in

Still Saws Wood at 81.


The Rev. Jacob Chapman of Exeter,

one of the few clergymen in New

used by family during the long New
Hampshire winters is something enor-
nous, yet Mr.. Chapman goes out into
the woodshed every day and saws al.
most enough to keep the parlor and
bedroom stoves well supplied, as well
as to furnish what is needed for the
kitchen.
Mr. Chapman celebrated the 91st
anniversary of his birth this week.
Though never robust, Mr.. Chapman's
physical powers are remarkably well
preserved. A day seldom passes in
which he fails to cut little wood,
an exercise which he considers very
beneficial. In good weather he takea
long walks. His mind is alert and
his memory very retentiye.
He was born in Tamworth, and in
1927 entered Phillips Exeter academy.
of which he is the Oldest living gradu-
ate. He was graduated from Dart.
mouth college in 1895, and from And
over Theological seminary in 1889.
For many years he was teacher.
Since his retirement Mr.. Chapman
has lived here, devoting himself to
genealogical research. He has writ

contributed to secular, genealogical
