A Simple Lamp Shade.

The elaborate fiounced and frilled
lamp shades of silk or paper, which
were so popular awhile ago, are no
longer seen in up to date rooms. Like
tulle ball dresses, they were charming
in their first freshness, but this soon
wore off and left them crushed and de-
jected looking objects.
A simple lamp shade of a lasting
type Is the one shown in the sketch.

Flood at Pittsburg and Vicinity
Was Wall of Water Quick.
Iy Passing.
IT WILL BE LONG REMEMBERED
In Ten Square Miles 1t Did an Enor-
nous Damage.
Subsiding as Quickly as 1t Rose-Firo
and Flood Havoc in Two In
undated Towns-M Many
Drownings.

Pittsburg, March 16. = With the
rapid receding of the waters in the
Monongahela, Allegheny and Ohio riv-
ers which is taking place here copdl-
tons are fast assuming normal pro-
portions and the greatest and most de-
structive food in the history OF the
city is at an end. At nightfall the APP
proaches to the bridges We're clear OF
water and several hours later street
car service in the flood district was
resumed. Thousands Of suburbanites
who have been stranded in this city
were able to reach their homes, while
the downtown section, which had been
crowded with sightseers since the sud
den rise Of water, is almost deserted.
Summary of the Losses.
Ten square miles were inundated.
The loss in actual dollars will proba-
bly, never be known, but an estimate
thus far in Allegheny county may be
summarized as follows: Loss in out
put of steel mills, $3,000,OO0; loss in
output of other industries, $4,000, 600;
loss in wages of employees, 81, S37, 900;
estimated damage to industrial plants,
s.. 100000; total, $9,337 900. Various
estimates are being made, ranging
from 100000 to $2O,O0OOOO 1t is
said, however, that the total loss will
not exceed 100000.
Deaths May Number Thirty.
To the foregoing, and though last
not least, must be added the loss Of
life. Then there were several fires,
one, that caused much excitement, III
the Mount Washington district. But
the total loss was only $225,0OO. The
loss of life in the whole flood district,
including Ohio and West Virginia, will
possibly reach as high as thirty per-
sons in widely separated localities.
Then there will be much suffering and
more discomfort for those whose
homes are water-bound.

eral Drownings.

Wheeling, w. Va, March 16.-Fires
added their horror to the stress OF
flood in the Wheeling district, causing
a loss of a quarter of a million dollars.
At Bridgeport, o., opposite Wheeling,
lime in water set fire to the extensive
plant of the Scott Lumber company,
which was completely destroyed, in
volving loss of about 100000. The
fire spread to a number of nearby
houses which were destroyed, and the
total loss is $4,000. For a time 1t
was feared the fire would spread to
the principal business section Of the
town. and owing to the food the
flames could not be fought at all.
At midnight an explosion Of gas at
the Warwick pottery in South Wheel
ing, destroyed the greater part of the
plant, causing a loss of 100000, and
threatened many houses In the vicinity
occupied mostly by Syrians. The po-
lice rescued 100 or more persons from
their homes in skiffs. but three little
Syrian children who fell into twelve
feet Of water surrounding their home,
were drowned. 1t is also reported
that Fire Chief w. G. Clayton wac
drowned, When the police began to
rescue the forei gners from the burning
homes in the inundated district many
panic-stricken persons jumped from
windows into overloaded skiffs, which
capsiZed. Several other persons are
thought to have been drowned.

Not = stranger to Her.

The conductor of the Pullman car
bad for some time had his eye on the
man who seemed to be fishing for an
excuse to speak to the lady across the
aisle. The passenger finally left his
seat and took one beside her. and when
they had conversed for Few minutes
the lady seemed to be protesting, and
the conductors opportunity had come
He stepped forward and said:
Madam, if this man is forcing his
attentions upon you he must resume
his own seat"
He Is not exactly a stranger to me, y
she admitted.
But you seemed to be annoyed
madam"
II am not exactly annoyed, but |
wish he wouldn't talk to me-"
Il am simply arguing a case" ex,
planned the man.
'Yes, but there is nothing to argue

until he dies. Give it up. Jimmy-give

Unconscious Ffumor.

A class Of little folk in an English
elementary school were recently asked
to define "a lady" with curious results
The definition of Lizzie, aged I, will
strike responsive chord in the heart
Of the busy woman and shows that
Lizzie must be an observing per son. "A
lady Is something like a man." says
Lizzie, but she's got long hair and
she's got q different face and different
clothes. and she's got lot Of work to
do" Charlie, aged 6, is impressed by
the difference between the sexes A
lady' he finds to be different from a
man because a lady has different
clothes from a man, a lady has different
eyes from a man, a lady has a differ
ent body from man, and a lady has
different shoes from man" Howard
aged 7, gets at the same facts from q
different point Of view. "A lady he
says, has not got some trowsers, but
man has got some trowsers." \ sec.
ond Charlie, year older than the first
one, thinks that "a lady is a nice wom-
an because she dCI't have torn clothes
and she has wOch with her, and she
has a Chanr on the wOch"

NEW YORK.

The country at large has this week
felt the after effects Of last weeks
financial disturbances at New York
and other eastern cities. Naturally
there has been some dislOcation of the
country's business, notably in the item
of the domestic exchanges which has
reacted on the collecting and forward
ing forces by for time stopping the
buying Of wheat in the Northwest and
of cotton at the South, and there has
also been a sensible quieting down Of
jobbing trade activities, some reduction
of forces in railroad improvement work
and in other industries, and some effect
also upon retail trade, which, however,
aided by fine fall weather, has given a
good account Of itself this week. In
the dry goods trade there Is a greater
disposition to concede that q lower level
Of values for several lines of cotton
goods is likely. Business failures for

CHICAGO.

The effort 10 strengthen credit IN
this center makes satisfactory head
way and with less difficulty than was
feared. Protective measures enforced
by the banks have won public co-opara-
tion, and it Is clear that unprecedented
gold importations pointed this way and
substantial additions to circulation by
most Of the local national institutions
must materially assist in relieving the
stringency in money and permit an
early resumption of normal conditions
Considering the disadvantages which
trade has experienced, 1t is not surpris-
ing to find recessions in new demands
and some decline in prices in primary
markets That business is yet at q
high level is evidenced by payments
through the banks in excess Of those in
the same week last year, although un-
der the total last week.
Iron and steel contracts keep the
furnaces and mills busy, and heavy de-
liveries continue of furnace product,
rails, structural shapes and factory out
puts. Activity Is well sustained In
forge and foundry work, heavy hard
wear, machinery, furniture and foot
wear, and the absorption Of raw mate
rial generally is unabated, except ,lum-
Der, which feels effect of lessened
