DAMAGE AT TEXARKANA
Heavy Rainfall Floods Streets and
 Negro Tenant Houses.

Texarkana, April 26.-A rainfall of three inches last night and early this
 morning flooded all the lowlands in
 this vicinity. On the Arkansas side, between the Missouri Pacific railroad
 tracks and College Hill, between 200
 and 500 negro tenant houses were sub
 merged, the water rising in most
 cases several feet above, the floors,
 but not floating the houses away. Wild scheams of the distressed negroes could be heard for blocks, and the work of relief was organized at once. but it required several ihours to i move the marooned persons to points of safety.
 Bed clothing and household rurni- ture was swept away from most of the houses, but so far no loss of life has been reported The main pump 1 ing station of the Texarkana Water Company was flooded, the water standing at more than 10 feet in the
 pump house, putting all machinery out of commission for several hours.
 For time the city was threatened with a water famine, but partial re- lief came this morning. Superinten- dent Wood estimates the company's
 damage at $1,000. Estimates made at
 the Chamber of Commerce place the total loss at perhaps $z5,O0O, mainly to
 tenant houses and streets and bridges in town and newly built or repaired roads in the vicinity. ets
 In some places the tracks of rail- roads are washed away, but these
 will bee repaired before morning. It is said that this the the worst
 flood that has visited the city since 1882 The local Red Cross and other
 relief agencies are giving shelter an&
 food to the victims who need. it, most
 of them having lost everything they | possessed

waking Joss Stick.

The composition of candles called joss sticks, which are used in all the religious ceremonies of Buddhism, has long remained mystery, the prepara- tion of the sticks being intrusted to certain persons chosen from limited class. Not long ago, however, there was learned the manner of making joss sticks in Indo-China. A stem of bamboo is rolled in a preparation containing IA different odoriferous drugs, two of which are significant, as showing a knowledge of chemical and physical properties. These are aconite, which serves to protect the sticks against the, attacks of rats and mice, and camphor, which causes them to burn steadily without being periodically eXtinguished.
