Big FLOOD
FRIDAY night
FALL RIVER ON A RAMPAGE
LAST WEEK
BURLINGTON DAMAGED
NORTHWESTERN LINE ALSO HAS
SEVERAL WEAK BRIDGES AS
RESULT OF FLOOD

Heavy rains over the entire southern
Hills caused Fall River which runs
thru the heart of the city to go on q
rampage last Friday evening and be.
fore the water had subsidized it had
reached the high water mark establish
ed six years ago. About four O'Clock
word came from out toward Pringle
that six or eight feet of water was com.
ing down Gold Brook and shortly after
Hot Brook was reported raising. The
bulk Of the water arrived here about
seven O'Clock and in short time the
river thru the city was out of its banks.
1t ie estimated that at one time it was
about fourteen feet above normal.
The first big rush of water down
Gold Brook took out the Burlington
bridge on the way to their round house
and this has not been repaired as yet so
that the engine remains in the yards
each evening. The train leaving here
at $3.50 p. m. was ut Minnekahta when
the flood came down Hot Brook and as
several of the bridges were weakened
and track washed out between this
place and Erskine it was unable to
reach this city before the following
evening,
On the Northwestern line between
this place and Buffalo Gap several of
the bridges we're also weakened and In
one or two places tho track washed out.
Further down on the main line below
Oelrichs, the bridge over the Horse
Head was washed out and the first train
over that after the flood was on Tues
day Of this week, all traffic north being
tied up during that time.
The Cheyenne River was higher than
it has ever been before for at least
thirty years according to old timers
only one other occasion being near ii
and that was this spring. Every dry
run aud creek has been running ban k
full and only within tho past few days
has the water gone down. The Chey.
enne River bridge seven miles below
this city was badly damaged. All the
wooden approaches as we'll as the grade
going out and the steel structure alone
remaining. This will mean cost to the
county of perhaps s5000.00 before
people south of the river can cross.
Heavy rains have also been reported
in the Northern Hills and also west in
Wyoming. Railroad traffic Is just be-
ginning to assume regular schedules
sltho all trains are late few minutes
owing to slow orders over bad places.

State College Asks More Funds.

Denver. = Increased appropriations
and the removal Of limitations on the
transfer of funds from one department
to another to meet various exigencies
are sought for the State Agricultural
College through the present Legisla-
ture by members of the Colorado
Farmers Congress. Sixty thousand
dollars, the average annual fund ap-
prorpriated by the Legislatures for
educational purposes in the last six
years, is held to be totally inadequate
to meet increased needs Of the col
lege as a result Of its rapid growth.
The total appropriations of the college
in the last three biennial periods has
been $S3, zoo to $S5,OO0 year, 100000
of which has been definitely set aside
for educational purposes and the rest
for experimental work. Under provi-
sions Of these appropriations, the edu-
cational department has not been per-
mitted to draw from the experimental
fund or vice versa, a condition which,
1t is claimed, is grossly unfair to the
institution, when it has been possible
to economic in the experimental de-
partment and extend its surplus to the
use of the others In need Of additional
funds.

ST. PAThICk'S RETURN
Every True lrlshman Believes the
Good Saint VIII Go Back to the
Emerald Isle.

A NYONE on the west coast Of Ire
~ land will tell you that some day
st. Patrick Is coming back to Ireland.
the land he loved. No one says when
that day will be, although there Is rea-
son to believe that 1t will be on the
day OF the final judgment OF the world.
Whether or not his return Is desir-
able depends altogether upon the
point OF view Of the teller OF the
prophecy. II he be gloomy pes
slmist he fs likely to remark that st.
Patrick can't come soon enough. God
knows. II he be cheerful optimist
he will add. "and may that day be far
although twill be. good day when.
ever 1t comes"
Ireland has a personal regard for
st. Patrick probably equaled by no
other country in the world in its relae
tion to patron saint; and so 1t Is
that the prophesied return of the mis-
sionary to the isle has had his
toric bearing upon certain of It's char
acteristics and events. so that even
the passing of the home rule bill mas
met in certain remote districts OF Ire
land with the turn Of phrase. III st.
Patrick came back now. tbs the
pleased man he'd be-"
And, indeed, If st. Patrick were to
return to the island to which he came
so many centuries ago he would find
some marvellous changes wrought by
the early years Of the twentieth cen.
tury. For Ireland has been passing
through peaceful revolution and Its
results would be even more apparent
to watchful patron than they would
be to the average observer.
The revival of the Irish language
has a. history of tremendous interest
to the student of craftsmanship. The
system of summer schools for stu.
dents in the districts where the Irish
language was still living language
has been strikingly successful and has
done much to break down the section
alism of Ireland.
Although the passage Of the home
rule bill through the commons Is nomi-
nally the most important event in the
history of Ireland in the last two dec.
ades, nevertheless the student OF
Irish history recognizes that the
measure is merely the elimination Of
Ireland's struggle to maintain her ma.
tionality. And should st. Patrick
come back to his island he would find
that Ireland had. by remembering
