ICE GORGE CAUSES
BIG RISE IN RIVER

An ice gorge eight miles in extent
causing the Des Moines river to flow
over the Gately and Eveland bridges
in Mahaska county to the height OF
six feet, Is reported today from Eddy
vile and Oskaloosa. Despite the fact
that the river here fell foot Thurs
day night and has been falling con-
i tinuously since the ice went out a few
days ago, dropping also at Eddyville,
it has been rising several miles above
the later place.
OskalOosa reports that beginning
some three miles below Givin at Rock
Rifle, and extending five miles above
Givin, the river has become gorged
with mush ice that has frozen through
to the bottom of the stream making
a solid mass. But little water is able
to get around the edges of the gorge
and as result the stage of the stream
below the ice Is falling while above 1t
the water is going up continuously.
The Gatel and Eveland bridges are
under water to the extent of six feet
and all Of Six Mile Bottom Is sub
merged. .'a ,,.. ~. ... r....".
The supervisors Of Mahaska county
have applied to persons in Eddyville
to break the gorge and the latter after
investigating, say that it will take $500
worth Of dynamite to accomplish this.
The freeze of Thursday night has
solidified the mass so that it can be
walked on today without danger OF
breaking. Thus far there has been
but little property damage, but the
residents of the flooded district are
apprehensive of much loss.

DISASTROUS BLAZE -
SWEEPS TENEMENTS

Passaic, NJ j., Feb. 24.-Two hun
dred and forty persons are homeless
and almost destitute here today as a
result of a fire which swept through
the tenement district last night and
early today, causing 100000 damage.
Police say the fire started through
a quarrel between two men chopping
wood in cellar under a paint store
by candle light. The candle was up
set and the fire that followed was soon
beyond control.
Most of those who lost their homes
were cared for by neighbors, and a
public subscription was started today
to supply them with clothes and food.
