Parliament En- Auto,

The changing fashion In London
locomotion was perhaps never better
exemplifed than on the occasion of
the recent division on the home rule
bill. At II o'clock when members
were trooping through the Hobbies,
there were probably not less than so
or so motors-for the most part pri-
vate carriages-in Palace Yard. and
not a single hanson cab or four-wheel-
er. The last Of the latter were in all
probability those patronized by the
late viscount Wolverhampton and Sir
Arthur Dignold. Now the horsed We
hicle is practically extinct within the
parliamentary precincts.-Pall Mall

DREADFUL NIGHT N
THE CITY OF DENVER
Half Score of Lives Lost and Hun
dreds Rendered Homeless by
Tremendous Cl0udburst

Denver, Colo. July 16.-Several hun
dred persons are homeless, a number
perhaps ten or more, have been killed
and S1,500,00O worth of property or
more, is in ruins. the result of a
cloudburst which last night caused the
overlooking of Cherry Creek, which
flows through Denver.
heavy rain, accompanied by a
forty-eight mile gale of wind, preced-
ed the cloudburst. Rain fell in tor
rents all during the afternoon, and
before night all streets were covered
with water and the creek was a roar
ing torrent, overlooking its banks, but
not doing any great damage. Toward
nightfall the wind decreased and the
rain fell less heavily. The sewers had
overflowed and the streets being COW
cred with water, some of the residents
in the lower part of the city sought
refuge in the parks, which are on high
ground.
About $3.50 p. m. some person from
the hill country above the city teIe-
phoned that a cloudburst had occurr-
ed in the mountains and that Cherry
creek was converted into a broad river
with the flood at crest and sweeping
down upon the city. A general night
alarm was sounded and hundreds of
residents in the low section rushed
from their homes. Within less than
half an hour a wall of water many
feet high descended upon the city from
Cherry creek. 1t ripped out concrete
walls as IL they were made of papier-
mache, destroyed bridges and small
dwelling houses and invaded the best
residential section, which is on higher
ground
This morning 500 homeless persons
were fed at the Auditorium, where
they were sent last night for shelter.
Twenty-Five children, whose parents
were either lost killed, were plac-
ed in the care of the police matrOn.
Mayor Arnold promptly organized a
relief corps to search the ruins for
bodies, several being found this morn
ing. This morning the waters were re-
ceding, but II will be some time before
the extent of loss of life and property
damage can be fully ascertained.
Fully fifty miles of paved streets
have. been ruined. the paving material
being swept out Of place by the flood
and the roadways washed into deep
gulles.

Has Nursed for 45 Years.

In connection with the death of
Lord Lister it is interesting to know
that the nurse who assisted the ia
nous surgeon with his first antiseptic
preparations is still in the Glasgow
Royal infirmary. Nurse Bell has many
interesting stories of the old days
when Professor Lister was in the in
firmary, and the crowd of students
and dressers, many of them now
chiefs, who attended the classes from
1861 to 1869.
Nurse Bell has been in the Royal in
firmary for As years. She is now six
ty-nine years of age and she enjoys
good health, though not able to do
much. When Lord Lister was present
ed with the freedom of the city of
Glasgow four years ago it was his de-
sire that Nurse Bell should be present
at the function in ST. Andrews hail.
When the memorial service was held
in the university chapel she had spe-
cial invitation to be present-Nursing

Oil the Coming Fuel.

So many advantages in economy
and efficiency are offered by the use
of oil fuel that its substitution for coal
in ships of all classes, both in the
merchant marine and in the navies
of the world, is making extraordinary
advances. This progress is notable
in the Pacific trade. Seven new sta
tions for oil supply are to be estab-
Nshed on the west coast of South
America as links in chain that will
ultimately extend from Tacoma,
Wash. to Valparaiso, Chile. Within
a few years the-American continent
from Alaska to Newfoundland will be
girdled with such depots.-New York

Effect of Electricity on Animals.

Scientists have for some years been
experimenting on the effects of cleo
tricity on crops, but the latest develop
ment is the report of the experiments
of Prof. Silas Wentworth on the eff
fects of electricity on animals in Cali
fornia. A flock of 1000 sheep was di-
vided-one-half being placed under
the power wires of an electric wire
company and the remainder removed
from the electrical area. The influence
of the electricity is we'll shown in the
fact that the sheep thus specially 10
Gated produced an average of frac-
ton over two lambs each, while the
ewes living in normal conditions yield
ed an average of less than one lamb
each. The fieeces of the electricity
treated sheep were also 20 per cent
heavier than those of the others.
