CAPITALIST OF MONTEREY. MEX,
MAKES ESTIMATE OF RE-
SUIT OF FLOOD
MANY TOWNS DESTROYED
Sevsral Pueblos Containing From Fifty
to One Hundred Inhabitants Report
ed to Have Been Wiped Out by the
Disastrous Flood-No Americans Are
Lost, But They Suffer Heavy Losses.

Laredo, Tex, Aug. 3c.-Two thou
sand dead in the Monterey flood is
the estimate OF the extent of Satur-
days disaster made tonight by Pedro
Trevino. IL prominent capitalist of
Monterey. official estimates do not
go SO high, ranging around l,200 or
1,40O.
There were several little pueblos con-
tanning from 80 to 100 inhabitants, To-
Gated along the banks of the river to
the south of Monterey and ii is re-
ported that these have been completely
wiped out and their inhabitants drown
ed.
1t is on this ground that Mr.. Ire
vino places his estimate of the loss of
life at higher figure than hS been
stated before.
No Americans were lost but several
suffered large property losses.
Prompt measures taken to house and
feed the homeless have proved ef-
fective and very few, If any, have been
permitted to go hungry. Soup kitch-
ems have been established so that the
refugees may be fed.
Greatest Sufferers.
the poor are the greatest sufferers,
the flooded district being principally
on the flats on the east side of the
Santa Catarna river.
of the four hundred or more bodies
thus far recovered about 80 per cent
have been identified and were inferred
today.
The burstcd water mains have not as
yet been repaired. but ii is expected
the situation will be relieved tomor-
row.
Railroad, telephone and telegraph
communication is 50 badly crippled as
to be practically useless. The Nation
al Railway of Mexico has lost 75
miles of track. several culverts and
bridges. There is no train service be-
tween Laredo and Monterey.
The National railway. for the first
time since the flood, secured telc-
graph connection with this city and
Monterey tonight. \ message was
Immediately rushed through from the
latter city ordering the master me-
chanic. located in Laredo. to hurry
forward all available material. Sev-
eral trains are stalled and it was not
definitely known until tonight that
the crews were safe. Indications are
that railway traffic will be impeded
until Thursday or Friday.

CORINTH CENTER CHURCH AS
1T USED TO BE,

Mr.. Joseph Lovewell wrote to his
cousin, Mrs. Hastings, in April
some of the things he remembered
about the church when he was a
boy, and she kindly consented to
let the church goers at the pres
ent time have the benefit of the
letter. The old church had gal
leries on three sides, and had
square pews, each with its little
door. There was also a door that
led into the funny old pulpit, to
which ascent was made by a flight
of very steep stairs. Around the
pulpit there was fringe of che
mile, in which the minister some
times got his fingers mixed as he
leaned over the desk.
The choir was in the gallery in
front of the pulpit, and Granville
Powers's father was leader of the
music, Lydia and Hale Knight and
Hilas Tenny being among the sing
ers. There we're other singers, but
these remained in the choir till
younger people, Dan and Mary
Knight and the Tennys took their
places. In his earliest memories
many people, old ladies, took foot
stoves to church in winter. Joseph
Knight was one of the deacons in
those days, and he remembers
where many of the families used
to sit. He also remembers when
they took the old tower of the
church down. He and other boys
watched it fall, but il made no
sound. Loami Hale was one of the
carpenters on the Job, and Mr..
Willis and son were the builders.
Scion Martin was the minister at
this time, one whom all respected

the history of the church was
Priest Pickles, who taught school,
Mr.. Lovewell's father and mother
attending the school. Theodore
Cook was the obliging postmaster
who used to deliver mail to the
people at church, and he came with
pockets bulging with papers and
letters, which he distributed to the
people, thus saving them a trip to
the postoffice. Mails were not as
heavy then as now, and few
pockets would easily contain a
days mail. The majority of the
congregation stayed for Sunday
school and afternoon service.
There were quite a good many
people to come from Taplin Hill
at this time. Many of the people
who attended church then are now
lying in the graveyards, and also
the ministers who preached in the
old church.
Mr.. Lovewell resides in Topeka
Kansas, at present. He is doctor
of philosophy and secretary OF
Kansas Academy of science. Mr.
Lovewell and sister, Mrs. Miller,
attend the old church when they
come to their native town for a

church and the people, and that he
has an interest in the church and
the people living here now.
