All Join in Singing "TelI the Colonel"

In the October American Magazine
Ray Stannard Baker presents an extra
ordinary report of Colonel Goethals, the
builder of the Panama canal According
to Mr. Baker one of the secrets OF
Cocktails great success is the personal
interest he takes in his men. Every
Sunday morning from seven until one
in the afternoon he sits in his office and
listens to complaints. The following ex-
tract from the articles presents this
point:
They have a song on the Isthmus
with this chorus:

GATHERING UP DEAD
IN THE STREETS
(Continued from page ID

The morgue began its part in the
tragedy OF the Dayton flood today.
First there were brought in the
bodies of two women from a house at
500 Second street. One was the body
of an old woman, the other young
one. A note pinned to the bodies In.
dicated calm preparation for death as
the water rose over their home and
finally engulfed it.
Hawke Mother and daughter
read the note.
Hawke Mother and daughter

The mother and daughter were
found on the second floor of theil
home in an embrace.

i wish to tell you the good results
myself and husband received from Or.
Kilmer's Swamp Root About eleven
years ago had u severe attack OF La
Grippe and was confined to my bed
about eight weeks under the. doctors
care. He pronounced my case kidney
trouble and rheumatism and not re-
ceiving the results from the doctors
treatment should have received, |
decided to try Swamp-Root. After
taking several bottles of Swamp Root
| I was able to get up and attend to
my work. About year later my hus-
band was affected with severe at
tack of kidney trouble and doctored
for some time with the doctors and
received no benefit. Knowing of the
good I had received, he decided to try
Swamp Root. His condition was such
that he was confined to his bed and
| words cannot tell how he suffered,
but after taking Swamp-Root he was
relieved so he could go on with his
work without pain. wish to heartily
recommend Swamp-Root to all per-
sons afflicted with kidney and blad-
der troubles and you may publish this
letter if you wish.

Arrangements for $50 bodies were
made on the first and second floors of
the General morgue. The body OF
Mrs. Whitney. which was recovered
yesterday with rope made from a
sheet about her body and identified
today, was first to be placed on cots.
A small group which gathered early
to await the bringing in of the dead,
grew as the hours went by.
County commissioners today said it
would cost $1,0o0.000 to replace lost
bridges and damage to roads in the
county. But one bridge is left across
the Scioto river here A dozen in the
county have gone.
Rescuers penetrated the section ~
Cypress and Center avenues. The
houses and the streets had been torn
out by the new river channel. A
wall of water thirty feet high struck
this section when the levee broke,
crumbIing houses and sweeping them
away Most of the rescued in this dis
trict were saved many blocks down
stream from floating debris.
A hundred people, supposedly from
this section, are marooned on a knoll
near Greenlawn cemetery more than
mile south, suffering from cold
and hunger.

WAYS OF FINDING PARTNERS
Some New and Original ideas Which
Intending Hostesses May Find
Of Real Value.

A correspondent kindly tells Of
these ways to find partners:
"One girl had conundrums written
on cards and given to the girls; the
answers to these were handed to the
gentlemen and they were numbered
corresponding with the numbers on
the girls cards; they were told I'd
find who their partners were. AM
other girl had the girls names writ
ten backward on cards and handed
them to the gentlemen and told them
to make out who their partners were.
Another girl had small piece cut out
Of the card; the pieces were given to
the girls and the other portions Of the
cards were given to tho gentlemen
and they were told to look for tina
girl who held the card corresponding
with theirs. Another put the girls'
