prohibition states Is just a little more
than one gallon; while the average in
saloon states is more than twen-y-fiv
gallons. These figures are from the

THE SNOW MAN.

Behold the brave old snow man
Out in the vacant lot!
See how he stands and holds his hands.
And never leaves the spot.
He always takes things as they come
Rain, sunshine, hail or snow.
Old shoes or bricks. stones, crooked
= sticks
And things that small boys throw.
There isn't any lesson
Let us give thanks for that
Nor preachment prim to get from him
Nor moral plain and pat.
He stands there like dead one
Until the busy sun
Sends down some rays to end his days
And then he starts to run.

uing "a hours. Fourteen inches of
water fell.
Not a train of any kind has been
moved over the Michigan Central

rails for three miles east and west are
congested with freight cars. All pas
senger trains have beer run over the
Lake Shore between Chicago and De-
Iroit.
The storms are extended as far
south as Fort Wayne, Ind, where the
electrical disturbances are reported
TO have been the most severe on rec
ord, with many horses and cattle kill
cd and much corn blown down.
The rain, falling in torrents, cut
high banks and destroyed the Michi-
san Central yards for 1000 feet.
Wrecking crews, officers of the road
and section hands ali along the line
were hurried here and 400 men are at
work repairing the damage.
Water rushed through the business
streets, tearing out pavements, foun-
dations of buildings and everything in
its course. In the Big Four railway
yards the roadbed was washed into the
st. Joseph river and many freight cars
were carried with the onrush into the
stream. Nine show cars belonging to
the Tiger Bill circus, in the Big Four
yards, are immersed in the food and
cannot be moved.
