skAGWAY RNER
 THREATENED

For The preceding twenty four hours up to about o'clock this morning skagway valley and Vi- cinity has been subjected to down pour of rain which almost reached the volumn of a cloud burst at times.
 The ground was so very. dry that the first several hours of rain caus.. ed no i'll effect as most of the water was absorbed by tbe sandy soil, but when the ground had become thor oughly saturated, the slopes of the surrounding hills began to shed the water into the SkagWay river, annd the stage of water in the stream began to raise rapidly.
 This morning, with the storm breaking, and the sun coming thru the danger seems to have passed, although the new wagon bridge at Twenty-second avenue Twas left in weakened condition, Some of the bants In the center Of the bridge having settled, thus causing the. bridge to sag considerably. The first crossing of the White Pass was pied high with drift wood and debris which had washed from up- stream, and as a precautionary measure, this mornings train was shunted across the river, and had there been any passengers these would have been transferred.
 Cutting through the regular channel. the river changed it's course over to the east side of the river bottom, which brings it closer to town. but the work done by the town under the direction of super iptendent Hays of the Alaska Road commission, probably prevented the river from doing considerable dam sgs to property on the west side of the city. As it was, the water flow ed close to the lower portion or town and as a result Andy Stread' has been forced to move.
 Early this morning Andy Stread was awakened from deep sleep by a noise sounding like the creaking of timbers and in few seconds his house commenced to rock which thoroughly awakened him and leap EIne from the bed he looked out and discovered that the water had risen lin the river to such an extsnt that it had changed it's channel and was running under his cabin. It was time to move and Andy lost no time in getting his goods and chat tels out and onto dry land. For tunately Mir. Stread had almost resdy a new home which he has been building and was about 10 I moye anyhow. The loss was not much as everything was saved ex- cept the cook stove and some cook Ing utensils.
 While the trouble to the White Pass road from high water has usually been st tthe second cross- ing reports from Superintendent Hahn's office late today say that no damage was done on the line, and that at ten o'clock this morning the water began to fall, and the danger was past.

1 banks to fill their water buckets. Then
 back again each trudges, toiling up
 over the ascent, and down again into 1 the valley.
 | For 1000 years this weary. climbing
 route has marked the path of Tai-wan's 1 water system. l One autoumn boy went out from | the mission primary school in the vil- 1 lage to enter advanced institutions fur ther down the river. When he returned 1 to his village, schooled in the science and learning of the west, he was given 1 a civic reception. | Chen. the young scholar regarded his home village with new eyes. The mayor of the town was present at the 1 reception and it was him that Chen spoke.
 DO you see that line of water bear
 CTS climbing the hNls from the river?" he asked.
 q sec" answered the mayor" but
 what of it?'
 l .eThey work too long and too hard,'' Chen announced. Their backs are bent with toll. The long. tiresomc walk
 keeps them so worn that they are fit for nothing but to carry their buckets | of water twice each day" l But what would you do?" asked the mayor. They must have water" 1 "I would cut a road straight through
 the hill from the village to the river,' said Chen. Then the work of the car
 riers would be light, and they could i give their extra time to other tasks.
 The whole village would benefit by the
 saving of toll and labor" l "A wonderful dea* WonderfuF grasped the mayor. "Ill order the road cut at once.' 1 And he did.
 1 For months the coolies dug that path through the hill. carrying away the
 earth in their little shoulder baskets. l Finally the road was completed, and
 all the village flocked through the cut
 to the rivers edge. Besides the easy l journey, they had now an open outlet ! to communication with the rest of the people who lived along the mighty Yangtse.
 For two months the village of Tai
 wan light -heartedly made the shortened
 trip for water.
 Then one day the mayor woke up with ! a boil on his nose.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1918-09-29

"Aha" cried the old native doctor You have boil on your nose"
 Yes admitted the mayor, 'I have 3 boil on my nose"
 And it is deadly boil,' announced the old doctor. Ut is the kind the dragon sends when he is angry
 What have l done to arouse the dragon?" asked the trembling mayor.
 You dug a road through the hill. answered the doctor. You dug deep. and you scraped some of the scales from the dragons back as he lay buried be- heath the earth.
 But what can I do to put back the scales2"
 There is but one thing" replied the doctor. "Order the road filled up, or you will not only have a boil upon your nose, but you will be covered with boils."
 The earth was carried back on the little shoulder baskets by the coolies. And today if you go to the village of Tai-wan you will see line of men and women trudging up and over the hill to fill their two buckets with river Wa ter. and toiling wearily back. up again, and down the slope into the village.
