PENSACOLA AND MOBILE STRICKEN.
Worst Storm in Their HistoryGreat Loss of Life
Among Marines Property Loss $8,ooo,ooo.

Pensacola, Fla, Sept 29.-Via Flo
maton, Ala.-The worst hurricane to
visit this city in dts history, and al
most equaling the Galveston disaster,
ragged here nearly all asst night and
this morning, with gale blowing.
The loss of life will be heavy among
the mariners, but so far only one body
has been recovered.
Commencing at o'clock last night,
the wind blew at fifty miles an hour
for three hours, and then increased to
sixty-five. From that time until 5
o'clock it remained about eighty or
ninety miles AN hour. The tide from
the bay backed into the city for blocks,
destroying homes and making rivers
out of the streets.
When the gale was at its height this
morning, and women and children
were running frantically about the
streets in the darkness, the alarm of
fire was sounded, and this added to
the confusion. The fire started in the
Pitt mill, near the business district,
and the horses of the fire department
refused to go out in the wet With tin
roofs flying about Them, trees and
wires falling over them, the firemen
took their hose wagons by hand and
rushed down the streets ito the scene
of the fire, and after hours OF work
controlled the blaze.
In the afternoon the wafer front and
business district presented horrible
scene. OF fifty on sixty big ships and
sailing vessels laying in the harborr
only five OF six we're there. These
have been driven ashore. and the wa
ter front Is mass OF wreckage OF
steamers. towboats, launches and sail
ing craft of all description.
Thirty fishing vessels in port have
been destroyed or damaged, and the
three big fishing houses with their
wharves, are gone. The Muscogee
wharf and the Commandments and Ia
ragona wharves of the Louisville &
Nashville Railroad are badly damaged.
Great iron ships of 1000 and 5000 tons
have been driven not only ashore, but
have gone through houses q block
from the water front
Every house along the water front
for a distance of ten miles has been
destroyed, and the wonder is that the
less of life is not greater. The tracks
OF the terminal railway in the navy
yard and Barancas have all been de
| sMoyed.

No communication can be had with
it has been badly damaged, and there
is no doubt that such is the case. Many
warships were there, and these have
undoubtedly been destroyed.
Every business house from the wharf
on Ohalifox street to the Union Depot
has been unroofed, many plate glass
windows broken, stocks badly damaged
and wires and poles all intemingled.
There are no electric lights, street
cars, telegraph or transportation SER
vice, The tracks of the Louisville &c
Nashville on the Pensacola and At
lantic divisions have been washed
out for thirty miles, and two engines
and cars sent out to the quarantine
station have been destroyed.
Eight sailors from a British steamer
were in the place, and as 1t went over
they chung to the roof and five were
washed ashore on this side, the other
three being drowned. sfts
Mayor Maura ordered every saloon
closed this morning and seventy-ive
extra police officers have been sworn
Fin The homeless families are housed
in all portions of the city, but will
walk the streets without food or
place to sleep until something can be
brought out of the chaos now existing
Added to the horror of the situation
is the thieves who are breaking open
trunks all along the beach, entering
unoccupied houses and stealing every
thing in sight Several arrests have
been made, but it is impossible to pro-
tect property under such conditions
While the storm was at its height
on Wednesday a steamer, barken-
tine and schooner we're sighted in
the Gulf but no tug could venture
out to them. Waves were running
mountain high and broke entirely over
Santa Rosa Island. Five fishing
schooners anchored in the bay broke
their cables and drifted seward.
Nothing has since been heard from
them,
In the city the tide backed two and
three blocks in the western part, conf
ing as high as Government street,
and completely inundating that terri
tory.
The city presents Il wreckase ap-
peaance and the damage is estimated
at $5,OOO,O0O

Corsicana, Tex; The Navarro coun-
ty clerk yesterday made new bond
which was approved by the county
commissioners. 1t is said that one OF

granted by Judge Scott, and had also
said that he would permit Judge Har-
dy's attorney to represent his defense,
end therefore new bond was made,

The young women with him seized his
arm, however, and with the assistance
of another girl in theG party persuaded
him to let the incident pass. But it
was generally the unaccompanied
women who got it good and heavy. One
tall mulatto woman stopped abruptly
in her tracks, after swallowing hand
full of the confetti which had been
chucked in her face, and told the young
men various truthful facts about their
ancestry they probably hadn't heard
before. A little girl, we'll dressed,
young, but with much spirit, did more
to embarass the throwers than anyone
else. While stopping to shake about
pound of the colored fragments out of
her hair, she said: "You old bachelors
are mighty hard up for something to
do! Won't any of the girls have you
round?'
So it went. Fun everywhere, even if
some of it of rough order. In a
crowd of the three hundred-od thou
sand which views these pageants it
would be strange indeed if the border
ruf1ian variety did not show up. But
good humor seems to be the rule and
most all are inclined to make the best
of the unpleasant conditions which a
great mob of people always brings
about. After midnight, when Lent
comes in, the city and people start in
to clean up the confetti, peanut shells
and general trash and get themselves
in order again. Then they settle down
to business and behave like well
brought up, sensible people for long
period of time. They have had their
holiday. Who will say it has not been
a blessing, reviver of energy and
spirits, stimulus to renewed activi-
ties and duties in their life work?

Beware the hidden foe, the unseen danger!
 The most insidious disease that man. kind has to fear is that which attacks the kidneys. It comes on SO silently, gains ground so rapidly, is so destruc- tive, that thousands are los, who might have been saved in the beginning.
 And yet, like any other human ill kidney sickness gives early warnings of its presence. and these danger sig nals are quite easy to detect. Neglect not ignorance, is usually the fatal error
 Signs of kidney trouble come either through the back or from the bladder; in backache, or some irregularity of the urine.
 Pain in the back. dull and heavy. or sharp and acute, tells you of sick kld- neys and warn you of the danger of dropsy, diabetes or Brights disease
 Too frequent passages of urine, thin. pale and foamy urine, or a thick, red, ill-smelling urine. full of sediment and scanty or painful of passage, tell you of serious trouble in the kidneys.
 Don't neglect the early kidney trou- bles Cure them while they are easy to cure. and 1t will save d life of suf- fering. Use a remedy for the kidn 'ys

LICENSE TAX PROPOSED.
Marion Interested in Matter Before th'
 Cafy Council,

Marion, April 2s.-(Speciaf. )-At meeting of the City Council held iast night. the question of agaln imposing a special license tax was taken up, put action was deferred until next Monday. A petition has been circulated against the levying of this license and the measure also has many strong support CTS. It will be remembered that the l license now attempted to be imposed I was done away by special act or the Legislature several years ago. ana tne officials claim that they have the opinion of a good attorney that the Legislative | measure does not prohibit the levyins | of such license and 1t Is on this oplnion | the authorities propose to act. There promises to be considerable discussion, as the public has been in- vited to attend the Council meeting and all will be given an opportunity 10 pc heard. It is urged by the officials that the license Is essential in order to pro- tect the tax payers against the tran sient dealers and to keep out faklrs ana interlopers.E The opposition claim tnat the source of revenue Is now sufficient and the 1evying of a license is unnec- essary and an imposition. It Is thought, however, that a compromise can be reached that will be satisfac- tory to all concerned.
