Missouri River
Rises Nearly Two
Feet at This Point

The Missouri river tooS a jump OF IL
feet at Omaha In the last twenty-tour
hours. sending 1t up TO 1875 feet above
the Tow water mark. or w.thin IS feet OF
the flood stage. The reason given for the
big jump by Foreeaster Welsh is a
gorge which formed at Salix, Ia, point
between here and Sioux City. The gorge
is supposed TO have broken. although no
reports TO that effect have been received.
There was fall OF one foot in the
Missouri river at Sioux City due to the
heavy gorges which formed between VIII
iston, n. D., and ,Vermilion. $. D.. and
which are still holding. 1t Is feared that
when these sorses break Sioux City will
have much trouble from the high water.
The river took drop oil one foot at
Kansas City in the last twenty-four
hours and rose IL feet at Bluair. Mr..
Welsh does not anticipate any trouble
at Omaha. The weather was clear yester-
day, all over the upper Missouri valley
and the gorge at vermilion is expected to
break at any time.

'ROOMERS SCATTERED BY FIRE
Destructive Blaze Causes Excitement
at the Old Paxton Home.
EFFECTS DAMAGED BY WATER
Fire Originated Probably from .
Lighted CiEarette and Firemen
Play Streams on the
Burning Building.

Fire broke out shortly before noon
yesterday in the old Paxton home at ss
south Twenty fifth avenue, now used as
a boarding and rooming house by Mrs. l.
IL. Van Meter. anu before Il was under
control the third floor was completely
wrecked.
The fire started somewhere In the
southeast part OF the third floor and Is
thought to have originated from q burn
ing cigarette or pipe left by one Of the
roomers. No one, 1t is said. was on this
floor when the fire started.
The alarm was sounded shortly before
noon and the department had lines OF
hose to the blaze before Il could gain
much headway. However, the roof and
upper story we're in flames and the fire
men had difficult work. Water poured
down through the floors and the greater
damage was done in this way. The sec
ond floor soon became a pool OF water,
tho furniture being badly soaked. The
lower floor, however. ESCAPED much dam
age from the water. as canvas was
spread over the furniture in the differ
ent rooms. In but two places did the
flames burn down through the ceiling Of
the second floor. but the walls and floors
of this floor will have to be replastered.
Roomers Hasten to street.
As soon as the alarm was given every
inmate Of the house broke for the lawn
and street. carrying all the vsluables
they could possibly set out Of doors,
Many women were in the house and they
did all they could to save what they
held most precious from the house. 1t
soon became impossible for them TO reach
the third floor and when the department
arrived they were ordered to remain out
side.
So large u crowd gathered that It was
necessary to call the police to keep back
the curious onlookers. The iron fence
that entirely surrounds the house aided
the bluecoats materially. no one but the
occupants OF the house being allowed in
the yard.
Though there was practically no dam
age TO the lower floor. the furniture Of
the second and third floors Is mostly
ruined. The damage to the house Is
estimated at si,5oo or 5000, while those
who live In the house have not yet esti-
mated the loss to their personal effects.
II Is believed. though, that the damage
to- the furniture. etc. will run up to a
figure greater than the damage to the
house.
The home. now owned by the Paxton
estate. is fully covered by insurance.
