The revelation, Of which four para

July II, 1Sl3, But Elder Roberts, in
his "Risc and Fall Of Nauvoo' page
ia. affirms that as early as 1881 tho
prophet received an inkling from the
Almighty that the doctrine of polyg
amy was divine. The statement OF
Elder Roberts is verified by Joseph +
Smith, And there are numerous hint:
that the Mormon prophet practiccd po
lygamy many wears before the public
promulgatiou Of the doctrine. Indeed

Flood Takes Out
Bridge IN Heart
of West Denver
Loss of Life in Dry Creek Torrent
Prevented by Rancher Who
Gave Warning.

DENVER, Colo, Aug. 9.-Damage result
ing from the coudbursts of Saturday and
Sunday afternoons, which sent great walls
Of water roaring down Dry creek through
West Denver, proves more serious than at
first estimated and probably will reach
Sl50, 600.
That no lives were lost Saturday night
when a wall Of water fifteen feet high
rushed down the creek was probably due
to the GOODNESS and bravery of ]. r. Garren,
a ranchman, who. when he saw the flood
coming, mounted his horse and galloped
along the stream shouting warnings to the
people living nearby Hundreds of people
reached higher ground barely in time to
escape the torrent
Considerable live stock was drowned in
the valley west of Denver, a number Of
farm buildings swept away and other dam
age done.
When the flood, carrying on its crest a
huge amount Of debris, poured into the
narrow walls of the creek bed in West
Denver it roared like a tornado. Near
West Twelfth avenue and Newton street a
big steel railroad bridge was cut squarely
in two by big tree which. carried on the
crest of the flood, crashed into the bridge
like a bcttering ram and sent one section
ties, rails and all. a hundred feet up the
bank. Three blocks of the track of the
Denver & Intermountain electric line were
torn up.

Greek flag. which was run -Sn over the
fortress and the Cretan military barracks
here on July q. the day after the evacua-
ton of the island by the international
troops, was lowered today as a result Of
the protests of the four protecting pow
ers.
ATHENS, Aug. s.-The Greek government
today handed to the Turkish minister a
formal reply to the porte's note, which
asked Greece to express her disapproval
of the annexation agitation IN Crete, and
formally TO declare that she had no am
bitions regarding the island.
The reply reaffirms Greece's intention
OF maintaining an attitude of neutrality
with regard to Crete, but it declares 1t
would be ultra wires (beyond her lawful
capacity or powers) for Greece to make an
announcement respecting the future of
Crete, which matter rests entirely with
the protecting powers.
In official circles it is considered that
the situation has materially improved.
