HOTEL Kitchens Flooded.

New York, July PA downpour,
accompanied by LIGHTNING and thun-
der, which continued for y minutes
this afternoon, deluged the city and
blocked and flooded the sewers in
many sections.
Subcellars and Easements were
flooded. In many hotel kitchens the
cooks could not approach the stoves.
A general blocking of the uptown
stations of the subway followed the
storm.
In six hotels in F.rtY seventh street
It was impo ssiole to serve guests with
dinner tonight because the kitchens
we're under water. Barber shops in
TIE Easements of these hotels had to
close, while the BARRIERS wsded about
knee deep in water.
In one hotel the water covered half
of the boiler in the engine rooom,
while five hotels were in darkness,
due to the electric dynamos being put
out of commission.
AT the height OF the storm. the Time
Square subway station presented q
scene Of confusion. The head of a
manhole blew up and q fountain OF
water two feet 10 diameter sprang up
from the cement floor. 1t rose to a
height OF four feet and poured its
volume to the subway platform. while
a stream Of water came pouring down
the steps from the streets. The plat
form was soon running four inches
deep and passengers could he dis
charged only from one door.

Potato Crop Threatened

Washington, July 27.--The Bureau
OF Entomology of the Department OF
Agriculture today issued warning
to the great potato industry of the
country, including the truckers of
Eastern Maryland and Virginia, TO
guard against the potato tuber mott
which is playing havoc with the po-
tatoes of California and Texas, and
which is rapidly spreading eastward.
The warning is issued at this time
in order to enable farmers 10 take
special action with the seed they will
use for the fall crop.
In its warning the Department ad-
vises the following steps be taken to
fight the moth:
"Potato growers are urged to sort
the potatoes for seed two weeks after
digging and then sort Thorn over two
weeks later. The tubers unaffected
By she tuber moth should then be
placed in q moth-proof bin. 1t is
easy to pick out the infested tuhers
because of the 'excrement of the moth,
which adheres by means of web to
the outside of the potatoes and can
easily be detected.

VALUE OF BREAD AS FOOD
YoIks Of Eggs Added to Oatmeal In.
crease Its Nutritlve Worth, Says
Health and Longevity.

No other foodstuff used by man Is
more satisfying than bread when Ia
ken with other articles of diet, and
many of the latter gain thereby in nu-
tritive value and power of assimila-
ton, as. for instance. milk. By sim
ply drying the slices of bread. thus
making toast" bread can be more
readily digested. 1t is also more cas-
lily masticated, and for this reason
somewhat stale bread is to be pre-
ferred to that freshly baked.
OF the various f1ours made of Ger.
calls. wheat -four is the most used.
The finer the -four Is ground, especial
ly wheat -four, the more of the nutri
tive substances are lost. and wheat
bread Is poorly absorbed Rye flour
when It contains bran. Is very badly
assimilated. Oats are even more poor
iy taken up. When oats are to be
used 1t is best to eat the products
manufactured especially with a view
to the digestibility. In my estimation
says a writer In Health and Longe
witty. PURGE Of oatmeal with two yolks
forms a very healthful food. in which
the eggs not only greatly improve
the taste. but also increase the nutri
tive value. Very valuable prepare
tons for children's use can be made
with oatmeal when taken with milk.

DIR. hummer explains the phenom
enon in this way:
The normal eye has an arrange

retina- The rods perceive light and
the cones dark color. When q per
son with a normal eye tries to see
IN half dark place the cones, which
are useless, interfere with the effec.

fusion creates the effect of apparitions
that come and go and change their

TRAGEDY TURNED TO COMEDY
British Officer Tells How Snuff Saved
Him From Hungry indian.
Tlgress.

A comedy which came very near
to tragedy Is related by q gallant Of
f1cer of the Bengal Lancers. now
home on furlough.
Here is the strange true story In
the soldiers own words:
Il was out for 4 day in the Jungle.
and had had rather poor sport. Lying
down for q bit Of a rest upon some
rank dry grass on the edge Of a wood
in the afternoon. was seized from
behind without q moments warning
by a huge tigress. which had got my
scent and silently tracked me down.
"She seized me by the breast of the
coat with her great teeth. and quickly
shook me into a state of unconscious
ness. OF course, ! thought It was all
up with me.
"But no. Before long made q
startling recovery. Hardly realizing
for while where was and what had
happened, l heard q little distance
away a peculiar noise. as II someone
was sneezing violently. It was the
terrible tigress.
II rubbed my still somewhat dazed
eyes, and then discerned the great
beast sinking away. sneezing al the
time, and every now and again emit.
ting q frightful roar.
"Only when she had got clean Out
of sight did the strange truth dawn
upon me. The tigress. in shaking me
preparatory 10 finishing mo OF. had
jerked my recently replenished snufI.
box open from my jacket pocket. and
received the contents full In her face
and eyes. Hence the sudden retreat
and my salvation"
