So az a future date and ! hope that
every one whoever attended the
Hickman College will give at least
one selected volume 10 the library OF
Hickman College, or perhaps sevs
eral might write and send one re-

this we're done 10 a short time Hick-
man could boast the finest library in

monvealth. and Why notf Il Is as
little thay can DO 10 testify their
appreciation Of benefits had and re-

A list OF needed books might De-
published every year in the Courier
just before school begins aud no
doubt there would be a hearty re-
Spouse.
The library should be regarded
as a public enterprise Of value 10 the
whole community and il must never
be forgotten that ian investment Boz

One OF the finest qualities in a
workman is a disposition TO do things
that need to be done without being
told. Young men working their way
through college are invaluable II
they have this quality. A tool is

off the fence there is a window
pane gone somewheres. The hoy
who attends 10 these things because
they need attending to without
specific direction is the boy who.
other things being equal, is going
TO be in demand when he gets out
into the great world. Il is the at
iention to little things and the habit
Of observation, which sees what
needs 10 be done and then does il
which makes exceedingly useful
men and women. There will always
be a call to come up higher. II is
in one sense a small thing 10 do
these little things without orders,
but Il is the doing Of them that
makes great captains, great engi.

and il is the absence Of this quality
that makes commonplace men and

ENORMOUS
LOSSES REPORTED AS RESULT
OF FLOODS ON LOWER OHIO
5#5 RIVER
CREST OF FLOOD NOTstYET IN
SIGHT, BUT ALREADY MANY
ARE HOMELESS Z
Associated Press to Bismarck Tribune.

Associated Press to Bismarck Tribune
Cincinnati, Ohio, Jan. 19,-With the
crest of the food not yet in sight and
the prospect of the near approach to
the immense loss from high water of
February 1884, attempts were today
made to estimate losses from the
present flood in this city and environs
Commission houses, which were
principally located in the low lands
now under water, have already suf-
fered damage estimated at 100000.
Many thousands will be lost by
factories through enforced idleness
and unproductiveness and nearly forty
thousand idle people will lose their
wages during continuance of the
present high stage of the river. Not
less than $4,000 people have been
driven from their homes in Cincinnati
and Kentucky suburbs, most of them
being forced to rely on charity for
their food and lodging. Nearly fifty
squares in Newport, over a dozen in
Covington and large sections in the
east and west ends and in the Mill
creek sections of Cincinnati are under
water. The east end is threatened
with darkness and shutting OFF of
electric power for car lines Of entire
eastern section and suburbs Of the
city.
0 The immense stretch Of river, carry
ing before it all manner of property,
was watched all day by thousands of
people from both banks and buildings
while strenuous efforts were made by
hundreds of men to carry to places of
safety those whose homes had been
invaded by the flood, or some Of their
household effects, from the flooded
homes
Reports from river cities, both
above and below Cincinnati, continued
& to come in with pleading for help and
food From some of the nearest flood
ed towns refugees came to this city
and are lodged wherever quarters
could be found. Portsmouth people
saw the breaking of the flood en-
bankments, and fled in terror to the
highlands. &.
The high water from scioto is being
added to the flood in the Ohio and
the floods from other tributaries are
holding back the regular high water
from higher up the river so that the
second rise seems sure to overtake
the main flood and increase the
danger.

Exhiblfion OF ColonlnI Art.

New York. April G.--The Metro

its collection of Colonial art which
II has been collecting for exhibition
at the jamestown exposition. The
collection is intensely interesting
comprising as it does numerous OBJ

being a great variety OF colonial

comprising manuscripts, portraits,

two or three dishes brought over
from England and Holland, these
pieces are of American make, having
been selected with the idea OF show

fact is indicative of the tastes of
