La Crosse, Wis, Oct THE two
thousand people who constituted the
population of the prosperous little
town of Black River Falls are today
without food or shelter.
The entire populace spent a sleep
less night on the hills from which
they watched the ravages to their

waters of Black river
Yesterday afternoon the waters of
Black river, sswollen by recent rains,
washed through the fembankment OF
the La Crosse Water Power com
pany's dam at Hatfield and swept In
a destroying flood over the town OF
Black River Falls.
The people of the town had ample
warning to save themselves and no
loss of life has been reported, but
the destruction of property has been
heavy. Between twenty-five and
thirty business houses and the same
number of homes have been swal
lowed up by the raging waters.
In his appeal for aid Mayor Nc
Gill says the people need both food
and tents in which to sleep while en-
gagged in the work OF rehabilitation
The population fled from thei
homes when the warning of threat
ened disaster came, not stopping <
think or extra clothing. or any thing
else except their own safety.
The pittiIess rain which had been
falling necessarily for many hours
ceased late in the evening thus re-
ducing the suffering of the people
last night from exposure. 1t will be
several days before the flood recedes.
