FLOODS RAMPANT
IN MIDDLE WEST

CHICAGO, March 2l-With scores
of towns in Indiana and Illinois partial
ly inundated by unprecedented flood
waters, heavy damage reported in
Wisconsin and Minnesota from COM
bination of heavy SHOWS, sleet storms,
and temperature fluctuated from far
below zero to mild spring weather,
the middle west will greet the first
day of spring with mixed feelings,
according to reports to the United
News.
The southern Indiana lowlands are
covered with water, in some districts
to a depth of several feet, and resi-
dents are fearing a recurrence of the
disastrous floods of 1913, when hun
dreds of bridges and buildings were
swept away and many lives lost. The
Sangamon river in Illinois, is 20 feet
above normal and crops on adjoining
farms are suffering heavy damages,
accordig to reports. Heavy snow
storms in Minnesota and Wisconsin
with zero weather, followed by heavy
thaws, have caused flood conditions in
those states.
Watre 81 reported running over the
great impounding dam at Decatur
ILL.,, where the Sangamon river is or
rampage, and Petersburg is almost
completely undated, with families flee.
ing from the lowands. Other com.
munities report heavy damage to corn
granaries.
In Indiana small streams are said
to be swollen to unprecedented size
and ranging beyond their banks be-
cause of heavy rains The situation
is reported aggravated because of the
backrush of flood waters of the Ohio
river.
Much damage is reported in south

MISSISSIPPI RIVER
is RISING RAPIDLY

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Mar. 81 The
Mississippi river at Memphis reached
stage of 1914 feet on the guage
here this morning and is rising more
rapidly than was expected by tile local
weather bureau. All levees between
the Missouri state line and the mouth
of the St. Francis river in Arkansas
are being patrolled by experienced
levee men, it was announced today
and this patrol will be extended south
ward as the crest of the flood moves
down the river.
Although the weather bureau here
has not changed its prediction of Al
feet of water here and 81 feet at
Helena, river men, express the belief
that the water will reach practically
the same heighth as in 1916 when the
guage here showed 43 IL feet. There
was no serious trouble with the levees
in that year and the engineers state
that eh embankments are in much
better condition to stand high water
now than at that time. For a large
part of the distance from Cairo south
the levees have been raised and their
base widene5.
The rain Saturday and Sunday
caused rise of five feet in the Mis-
souri, river at Kansas City and
slight rise at Davenport. The Illinois
river is reported rising rapidly. Most
of the flood water has run out of the
Wabash river, causing a new high
stage of 1873 feet ait Shawneetown,
Ill. The crest of the Ohio river flood
is expected to be between Evansville,
Ind, and Paducah, KY, today. The
Ohio is falling at Louisville the crest
having passed there yesterday. Cairo
Is expected to get the crest of the
flood either today or tomorrow with
a. stage of So feet or more predicted
by the weather bureau.
Steamboat lines out of Memphis
have been forced to cancel number
of their regular stops on account of
the difficulty in making landings. At
other points freight is being loaded |
and unloaded o ntop of the levees.

BURGLAR ALARM INSTALLED
BY FIRST NATIONAL
BANK, MT. AIRY.

The First National Bank at Mt.
Airy has installed modern burglar
alarm system. This alarm system IS
such that after closing hours should
burglars attempt to enter the vault by
turning the combination a large gong
on the outside of the building Will
sound the alarm Should they try to
force the door in any manner such as
throwing the bolts or burning through
the door with an acetylene torch or
any other instrument, the face of the
door being protected with an electric
circuit, this would also sound the
alarm.
The bell on the outside of the build
ing is protected by an electrically
equipped steel housing so that if same
is attacked in any manner, such as
drilling, burning, or other means, to
open the box, this in turn will start
the alarm.
There is a further system of hold-up
stations located in convenient places
throughout the bank building so that
if burglars enter the bank at any time
during the banking hours and attempt
to holp up the employees, there is a
silent alarm which is sounded to bring
help.

The FOURTH
FIREMEN'S BAzAR, BASE BALL, DEMON
STRATION BY FIRE TRUCKS AND PAR
ADE.

The Fourth passed off in this city
very quietly until 6 o'clock when an
alarm of fire was sounded for motor
cycle, owned by VIM. Owings, near this
city, became ignited at Main and
Washington avenue. Before our fire
company arrived the Pikesville fire de-
partment coming to this city for a
demonstration and parade, was coming
down Fair Ground Hill and extingui5h-
ed the blaze, but not until the machine
was greatly damaged. At $50 p. m.
the Westminster and Pikesville Fire
Companies gave a demonstration with
their fire trucks by starting from I'm
ion street, at Main, and running at
full speed to plug at b. r. Shrlver
Co.'S building, connecting suction and
throwing water from two lines OF
hose. The street on both sides was
lined with a solid mass of humanity
from the Forks of the Road to the
place of action. Our local companies
made the run in one minute and 30
seconds. Pikesville in l minute and 5S
seconds. Pikesville made the fastest
run to the plug but were unfortunate
to blow a connection on the engine,
causing them to quit.
The next attraction was a parade of
three fire fighters with members on
board.
The Westminster base ball team
trimmed New Windsor in two games.
The first at New Windsor in the morn
ing and the second here in the after
noon.
The firemen's baZar was in progress
in the afternoon and evening. The
chicken and waffle supper attracted
many tourists passing. Tourists from
Elmira stopped and enjoyed meal and
bought freely of Jared fruit, cakes,
eggs, etc. and were delighted with the
way the. bazar was conducted.
Over $1,000 was taken in Tuesday
evening and possibly would have been
considerable larger but the rain in
terferred and caused the bazar to
close early.
Band concerts and dancing was an
other feature of the day.
Being handicapped by rain during
the three day celebration, the fire COM
pany will continue the bazar with
the usual attraction, except the chick
en- and waffle supper, Saturday even
ing.
