Flood at Kansas City.

Kansas City.-All calculations Of the
weather bureau and river experts as
to the duration and extent of the flood
at the junction of the kaw and Mis-
souri, rivers were upset Wednesday
by the continued rise of the Missouri
river due to heavy rains in Dakota
and Nebraska. At p. m. the Missouri
river was 27.2 feet above low water,
rise of twotenths since noon.
There will be steady rise in the
Missouri for the next twenty-fOur hours
and the river will probably go to 21k
or IS feet 1t will then remain sta
tionary for twenty-four hours. Then,
under the influence of the receding
Kaw, the river will fall slowly.
At p. m. the kaw river at the stock
yards was 27.S above low water. a rise
of four-tenths for the day. This rise
is due to the dammine of the river
Just below the stock yards by the Mis-
souri, Pacific and Union Pacific
bridges, which have accumulated a
vast amount Of driftwood. The kaw
at its mouth is stationary, and at Bon
ner Springs. Kansas, fifteen miles
west, is falling.
The flood Wednesday was highly
spectacular. viewed from the bluffs of
Kansas City. On the Clay county bank
of the Missouri the little village of
Harlem was entirely surrounded by
water and the river was flowing mile
wide behind the village over corn
fields.
The Kaw has overflowed most of
the abroad yards. the stock yards and
the residence and manufacturing dis
trict of Armourdale Ten feet of water
is running through Kansas avenue, the
main street of Armourdale.
The flood is the highest since that
of 1903, but the water is more than
seven feet lower than in that year.

four-Rockingham. Walsingham. Hur-
ingham and Wales-were features at
the annual horse shows here and
throughout the country, winning many
honors.
Those who knew him were aware
his patriotism was marked trait.
This was not generally known. how
ever, until the Spanish-American war,
In May, 1898, he offered to construct,
equip and lend to the government a
dynamite torpedo boat of $50 tons,
with a speed of twenty-six knots, the
estimated cost of which would be
500. 900. His only condition was that
he should be permitted to command
the vessel and to select his officers.
For some reason, however this Offer
was declined by the government.

There was never a more conscien-

had become with the mere idea OF

suited his minister. DO you reck-

music without falling from grace?" he
asked. anxiously.
The good old Methodist had sa~
ing sense of hunor. He saw that his
parishioner was much distressed be-
tween his wishes and his conscience,
but the minister smiled on him, never
theless.
Its the horn you're asked to play.

Colorado Springs.-Four hundred
men are at work pushing the transmits

Company into Denver. By November
list the work will be completed to tina:
point and cheap power will be avail
able, according to information given

line has been completed from Glen
wood to Dillon and power is now being
distributed in Lake and Summit coun-
ties through the subsidiary company
at Leadville. A $4,000 voltage is being
maintained and this is to be increased
to 100000 volts.
The construction men are now at
work between Glenwood Springs and
Leadville and the line to Denver will
be operated from Dillon, over Argen-
tine pass. and taking in Georgetown.
Idaho Springs and Golden.
The announcement that operations
are progressing is interesting in con-
nection with the ultimate purpose Of
the company to furnish power to all
the big enterprises OF Colorado.
Months ago it was announced the
Moffat road and even the Colorado &
Southern and the Denver & Rio Grande
were figuring on electrifying their
lines and operating through the agency
of the Central Colorado company and
the Eastern Colorado company, which
is financed by the same people.
The two companies combine a CAPT
talization of nearly $30.000,000, and
the scheme is one of the largest, If not
the most gigantic, ever undertaken In

SHORT SLEEVES LOSING VOGUE.
Parisian Modistes Declare for Change
In Fashion.

AS usual, sleeves are of prime i'm
portance in the warm weather ward
robe, says Mrs. Osborn in the De-
lineator. More than any other de-
tail of the toilet they betray the ex-
act date of its creation. "A gown is
as old as its sleeve" is an axiom of
the dressmaking profession.
In Paris the short sleeve is already
passe. The American woman. however,
will not drop it abruptly for the long
sleeve. She will be inclined to tenn
porize on account of the heat of our
long summer, but by autumn it is a
certainty that the short sleeve will
have been laid to rest.
One of the best examples Of the
typical small sleeve is used in the
tailleur. 1t is full length, Of course,
close fitting and with no perceptible
fulness at the armhole. An excellent
phase of 1t Is illustrated in the cos
tune Of shantung in the shade called
ashes of violets" The little coat
has square scanned position back
and a deep V-shaped closing in the
front that Is caught to one side with
a darker tone chou of silk, plated and
ruched into q clever semblance OF a
double violet.
The sleeve is most interesting and
unusual, for 1t has but one seam, and
that on the outside OF the arm. The
sleeve buttons from the elbow to the
wrist with a bias line of great button
holes bound In cloth, and small round
cloth-covered buttons. The armhole
OF the coat is turned under and piped
so that the seam IL as fiat as possible.
