Drowned by Swonli-u Stromim In Arkun-
kiih i 11 ICfKUlt of CtomtliiirHt.
Austin, Tex., .June 0. The eloiul
lmrst of Wednesday, which swelled
the rivers of this portion of the htnte
out of their hunks mid unused h reut
loss of property, was inueh worse than
reported. .Many people are known to
have perished, meager reports last
night placing the number at ur. Yes
terday reports came from San Saba
nnd Manardville, small towns DO miles
north of here, in the mountains.
saying that both towns had been
swept by the raging Hoods and
were badly devastated. In San
Saba eight people were drowned and
the entire town is reported under water.
The river at that point is one mile wide
and running like a millraee. At Man
anlville, 111 houses were swept away
and this morning several more gave in
to the swirling torrent and started on
their voyage down the stream. The
situation at Manardville is even more
Kurious. A small town located to
the right and in the bend of the
river in the valley, it proved an easy
prey to the raging torrents. Sev
enteen people are known to have been
drowned there ami there may be others.
Of those drowned two were young
white girls, Lydia ami Ainu Wells by
name.
Town in Tcxiih Swept Awuy.
Dallas, Tex.. .June . The Trinity
river at Dallas began rising yesterday,
but the volume uf water does not in
dicate any such Hood as is reported
from the western streams. The town
of Kingsland, in Llano county, 150
miles west of Dallas, was last night re
ported partly swept away and the in
habitants have nearly all lied to the
highlands. The Hooded region takes
in approximately 'JO counties, with
Xilano on the east, and nearly all of
them without telegraph or railroad
lines.
Ktmior of it DNustrous Landslide
Little Koek, Ark., .lune . It is re
ported here that a landslide occurred
nt Koss hollow and engulfed 28 men,
all of whom are supposed to have been
killed. Uoss hollow is a pass between
two small mountain ranges, about 'iS
miles west of Little Uock on the line of
the Choctaw it Memphis lailway; now
under construction from Little Hock to
llowuit.

A WltncHK lie fore the I inliiHt rlul Commltt-

I)Is)(k'h of Competition.
"Washington, June ). The industrial
commission resumed its investigation
of trusts, the Standard Oil company
receiving especial attention. W. II.
Clark, of Ohio, who, until February,
was employed by the Standard Oil com
pany in various town in that state, but
was then suspended, testified that
while employed at Marietta the Stand
ard had ousted other companies from
business by competition and then put
up the price of oil. At Springfield, Mr.
Clark said, he was a wagon salesman
and the instructions there were to get
trade, regardless of the price. Some
refined oil was sold as low as four
cents. Kebates were made when
necessary. At Urbana, he said, he was
manager for the Standard company.
Here a competitor was driven out by a
threat to force the price down to one
cent a gallon. The competitor after--ward
went to the poorhouse.
The ICuttirn of Volunteers.
Washington, dune S). lien. Otis
cables as follows regarding the return
of volunteers:
Manila, June 8. Adjutant General, Washing
ton: Oregon request to defer time of departuie
until 'M; will leave for Portland In transpoits
Ohio and Newport. Sixth Infantry upon ar
rival will relieve Califoriiluns at Neros. Hun
cock sails In few days with Nebraska und other
troops.
(Jen. Otis has been advised that it is
the wish of the president that all ar
rangements be made to give the re
turning troops a comfortable voyage
nnd that the best of care be taken so
that no sickness may break out among
them. It is also said that precautions
will be taken not to load the trans
ports too heavily, so that the return
ing troops may have plenty of room.
AriiIiiiiIiIo Deelure IllniHelf Dictator.
Manila, dune it. It is reported that
Aguinaldo has dissolved the Filipino
congress and declared himself dictator.
The report is credited by the Filipinos
here in Manila. The efficiency of the
insurgent secret service has caused
Hen. Lawtou to adopt new tactics in
the campaign north of Laguna de I Say.
Instead of prearranging expeditions,
his troops under Hall, at Morong, and
Whalley, at I'asig, are prepared to ad
vance at any direction at a half hour's
notice, thus lessening the chances of
the enemy learning the American plans.

late session of the legislature.

MISSING THE JUBILEE.
There "Wim One Woiitnn Who Seemed
to lie Ignorant of the Vnct
That Pence llud Conic.
It was in the midst of the pence jubileo
and the editor was the busiest individual in
town, but the visitor got iu on him, and,
what was worse, sat down and showed other
signs of remaining, none of which the editor
encouraged.
"Kxcuso me," said the visitor of his own
volition, "but caiii't I ask you an important
question?"
"What is it?" responded the editor, with
out looking up from ins work, which is al
ways a sign that anybody ought to under
stand. .... ....
"Ain t this a peace jubilee we re having in
this town?"
"It certainly is."
"And the peace jubilee is a celebration of
peace, ain't it?"
fISxactly." , . , ,
"And peace means that war is off, don t
it?"
"Of course it does."
"And that the olivo branch is hang
ing low, und that everybody is falling
on everybody else's neck, and that every
body is glad the war clouds have rolled by,
and that good fellowship is now prevailing
everywhere, and that every bosom throbs
responsive to the gentle coo of the dove, and
that everybody is wearing white wings, and
that there won't be any more setups, nnd
that everybody h kissing and niakit.g up;
it means tluit. don't it?"
"Exactly," responded the editor, pleased ,
to discover so comprehensive a Kiiowicage
from such an unsuspected quarter.
"I thought so," said the visitor, rising.
"I'll go back homo nnd tell my wife about it.
When I left there an hour ago I don't be
lieve she knew it had happened. Good
morning." And the visitor went out before
the editor had time to extend his sym
pathy. -Washington Star.

A Dnlnty Summer Until.
For a refreshing summer bath use soft
water. Make a dozen or more cheese cloth
bags. Fill them with oat meal, and finely
shaved Ivory Soap, add a little powdered
orris root, mix well, and tie up securely. One
bag in a tub full of warm water will make a
delightful, cleansing bath, and render the
skin soft nnd smooth ns velvet.

The United Stntc a l'on-or for Good,
A distinguished historian writes, while
referring to this nation's advent as a col

influence for good over European spheres
will be immense. This result was just in

use of llostctter's Stomach Hitters, the
great remedy which is found in every home
