3ETTINGs AROUND THE TRUTH
little Helen's Shrewd Scheme for
Sugar Coating Fabrication Her
Mother FroWned Upon.

Little Helen, one of the youngest set
of Scipio society. was missing her
sister. who was old enough even TO
90 visiting and stay away from home
three whole days and nights. She
was getting more lonesome every
hour and after having been told sew
eral times by her mother that Louise
wouldn't be home until Friday, finally
hit on a plausible preteXt, for getting
sister home.
"Mother. let's write and tell Louise
that we have a new baby. at our
house. 1 know she would come home
then"
"But we could not write that-that
wouldn't be the truth, and it isn't
nice to tell things that are not true.
That apparently settled the mat
ter, but Helen added: "Well, we could
tell her it was a new baby doll when
she got home-that would he all right
wouldn't it?'-Indianapolis News.

LIONS OF DOLLARS.
BIG LOSS IN CENTRAL TEXAS
Area of 10000 Square Miles Bears

Rains Continued to Fall for
Several Hours.

San Antonio, Texas.-The number
of known deaths caused by the most
disastrous food in the history of San
Antonio still stands high. At one
time it was claimed that the loss Of
life would reach 300. Conservative
estimates place the property loss at
$3,00O,OOO
Strict military control was main
tanned over the inundated districts.
AS the floodwaters slowly receded
the search of the wreckage continued.
One of the greatest losses to any
line of business was suffered by auto
mobile dealers, many new cars being
damaged in warehouses or on display
room floors. That loss was estimated
at $25O,OOO.
Great damage was done to the pave
ments of the city, many entire blocks
being washed away. Loss also caused
by scum of fuel oil, released at one
of the city pumping stations and at
various manufacturing plants.
AS the waters receded the oil was
left on the buildings and their con-
tents.
At the San Antonio Express build
ing the current at the crest of the
flood was estimated at II miles an
hour. 1t was so strong that heavy
floating timbers caused much damage
to buildings.

appeared as completely as though
they had melted away. Some of these
structures were more than 100 years
old All were small and were occu-
pied by miscellaneous business enter
prises.
1t was impossible to obtain accurate
estimates of the number of dwellings
washed away, but, according to one
police report, the figure was placed
at 200. OF the 81 bridges that crossed
the San Antonio River in it's 14-mile
winding course through the city, Only
one actually was washed away, but
IL except four were damaged, sew,
eral almost beyond repair.
| With communication into the cen
trail Texas flood district being re
established. loss of life and property
damage as result of the great deluge
mount steadily. 1t has been definitely
established that an area extending
north as far as Georgetown, south tt
SanSeAntonio and below, west to Sar
Marcos, east of Calvert and Bryan
or approximately 10000 square miles
already has felt the effects of fioot
waters.
