I have as yet failed to find any light
equal to acetylene gas; in fact, we are
better pleased with it than with elec-

cording to the amount OF light used
every evening, which is about an ounce
every three weeks three lights being
used every evening. The gas tips re-
quire no care whatever; all that I do
is to fill the carbide and waterztank,
and the plant is ready and there is no
dirt connected with it in the house.

A number Of firms do not agitate nor
advise their use, yet have these in
my barn and find that the possibility
of setting fire is greatly reduced. This
does not necessitate the use of matches
at all, since all that is necessary is to
pull tie cord or chain after the gas, ia
turned on and it is ignited by an elec-
trio spark.

Town Wiped Out,

All that is left tonight of Shawnee
town is the new substantial brick and
store buildings behind the main levee,
and they are considered unsafe.
There are less than 100 persons left in
the former town of 5000. They are in
the second and third stories of the
main >aet buildings, the structures
on the highest street in the town. A
strong wind, rising at 10 O'Clock this
morning, completed the destruction be-
gun by the opening Of the south levee
yesterday.
The water within the levees was mp
to the 57-foot level Of the Ohio river.
A break in the northern leyee also
added to the danger Of the town and
the main force Of the Ohio striking the
north levee. The entire north and
east levees are submerged.
