TO PLACE SETTING
FOR MAINE RELIC

Sheldon, D., July 15.-A perma-
rent settin~ for the historic battleship
Maine memento viii be placed In the
village park within the next two
weeks. or just as soon as the village
board can have the work done. 1t
will be located in the west end of the
park a few feet west of the grand
stand and in plain view Of the street
and the railroad.
The village fathers had first
planned on placing the relic on a con-
crete structure, but a travelling rep
resentattve of a Fargo marble con-
Germ was in Sheldon this week and
presented a plan to the board, which.
if they accept, will cost little more
than the original plan. The repre-
sentative was of the opinion that he
could induce his house to furnish the
base and a granite stone free, believ-
ing that the advertising that the
house would derive from this method
would eventually amount to more
than the cost of the setting. He has
placed the proposition before his
company, but 1t is not known at this
time how they decided to act on the
matter.
The relic, which is eighteen inches
long will be placed on top of hte
granite slab and securely fastened by
two large iron bands, so that curio
seekers from other towns of the coun-
ty will have a hard time to make
their getaway with Sheldon's historic
relic.
On one side Of the granite slab VIII
be engraved the date of the sinking
of the b~attleship in Havana harbor
ad the date of its raising, together
with the information Of how it was
secured for the village.

an unknown source to the city hall
just before the crest Of the food
reached the city, many could not have
escaped death. Scores fed in their
night clothes. That many were caught
in the fiood while sleeping Is the gem
eral belief.
The crest Of the %cIoudburst was pre-
coded by a storm, the wind blowing
4S miles an hour at 5 o'clock yester-
Day afternoon. In two hours of hard
rain, the streets and sewers were
flooded, tramway lines were put out
Of commission. Hundreds were mar
rooned in parks around the city and
fifty miles of city roadway was de-
stroyed. Then came a lull for four
hours during which the car lines were
returning to schedule.
At about $3.50 last night a cry of
warning Of a coming flood reached the
city hall. Within thirty minutes a
wall Of water many feet high des-
cended upon the city from Cherry
creek which flows through the Coun-
try club grounds, passing within FIVE
blocks OF the city hall the county hos
pital, the west side courthouse out
to the South Plate five miles distant.
1t ripped out the concrete walls thar
confined 1t for two miles, destroyed
bridges and hundreds of small DWELL
ings, driving the occupants from their
homes or to their roofs from where
they were rescued by members Of the
police and fire departments.
Reaching the union station the food
spread three feet in depth through the
yards putting locomotive fires out,
NARROWING several hundred passengers
and closing the city to incoming or
outgoing traffic. In half an hour, miles
Of tramway lines were put out of COM
mission while the sewer was under
mined and flooded Capitol hill, the
artistocratic section of the city.
A general call to physicians was is
sued and many responded.
The cellars of downtown stores and
hotels were flooded.
This morning the flood was It the
receding point. Not until telephone
and telegraph lines are restored today
will the full extent of the damage be
known,

oRoP SITUATION IS eoop.
p. J. Lamb Says Conditions in This
Part of Clay Are Satisfactory.

Since Saturday President Lamb of
the Moorhead National bank has done
considerable driving over the upper
part Of Clay county and he says the
crop situation is good. He did not
see nor did he hear Of any rust and
there was no trouble from the Hes
sian fly to speak about. Rye and bar
ley cutting is generally in progress
and the reports are that both grains
are we'll filled and give prospects of
big yields. The farmers complain Of
the grain being down very badly In
some places. The present cool wealth
err is considered very advantageous to
he wheat fields. 1t is thought that
early potato digging will begin in
about two weeks.
