lessly taught, a good citizen may be
lost to the nation. And a criminal or
worthless citizen acquired. For the
boyish feet starting down the sIoping
road OF brutality and crime and sin

And 1 believe that boys and girls

And because of lack of teachers

FURIOUS transform.

A record breaking rainstorm Wis
tied this and the Ronceverte COM

leaving much damage in its wake.
The temperature had been high for
week or more, ranging often
around 80 and IS. Sunday after
noon about four O'Clock two clouds.
coming together over the town,
opened their flood gates letting out
downpour the like of which is
not ofen seen here. The streets
were soon flooded, culvers and con-
duits being entirely inadequate to
carry off the water. Many gardens
were badly washed, some of them
practically destroyed, a number of
cellars on the South side of Main
Street, between Jefferson and Fay
cite, were filled with water, the
Princess playhouse being, perhaps.
the heaviest sufferer. Here the wat
er ran into the basement pool room
and soon collected TO the depth of
4 or five feet, practically destroy
ing the pool-tables and furniture.
These, however, Mr.. Foster after he
had pumped out the water, manag-
aed to replace with with tables Sc
cured at the White, and was soon
ready again for business. Mr.. Dav-
idson, who now owns and occupies
the J. S. Crawford place, found, af-
ter the rain ceased, that his gar
den was destroyed and in looking
for his chickens saw a half dozen
polecatS, which had been stealing
his chickens, hanging on to a wire
fence to keep out of pond which
had formed around them. Mr.. d.
waded into the water and with a
club killed the entire bunch. A
number OF deep ponds formed in
low places in the town but did not
stay long, the water soon disappear
ing in the cavernous earth below.
AT Ronceverte the mighty rush Of
water down the rayine along the
frankfort road tore UP the culvert
where it crosses Railroad Avenue,
broke and piled up the heavy con
crete sidewalk, some brick i'm the
street, and soon flooded the avenue
with mud and water which got into
many stores and other buildings on
the street TO depth of IL or IS
inches in some of them. We were
told there, Monday, that the rain
would cost the town $4,000 but that
the c. &. o. would bear part of
this expense for the reason that its
part of the culvert was too small
and poorly constructed.
