A Ga zette special from Hot Springs, Ark., says: Yesterday was an epoch in the his tory of Hot Springs. The city is gutted. Ruin and wreck meet the vision every where, and nothing like it has ever been known to compare with the result of the Thursday night's storm, which occurred too lato to bo telegraphed. It was a water-spout, and the valley was swept with a mighty tidal wave. The loss too property is fearful, while the sacrifice of human life, is, under the circumstances, appalling. Swift and terrible were the visitations. Without warning the peo ple were awakened from their slumbers to find themselves threatened with des truction by the mad waves. Sti-ange to relate, few people were conscious of the horriblo disaster till they awoke to look upon the desolate scenes yesterday morn ing, and to drag the drowned from the drifts. The storm struck the town about eleven oclock Thursday night from a northwestwardly direction. It was ac companied by stiff, cool winds, though not strong enough to produce damage. Rain fell in torrents from 11 to 1 o'clock without intermission or cessation. In deed, those who were up and witnessed the awful scene describe il as one never before seen by them. Vivid flashes of lightning displayed, as it were, great sheets of falling water. At the close of the storm a great And ominous sound, with the shouts of the people and cries of dis tress went up from the valley, and such citizens as were in the vicinity of the creek and rayines went forth to ren dwr assistance. The flood on Central avenue, the principal thorough fare, as sumed an angry river, whose, rushing tide swept everything movable on its bosom For over half an hour the avenue was transformed into a torrent fifty yards wide. Barrels, boxes and parts of houses came down on the tide and were left strewn on sidewalks. Sev eral large hotels were flooded to a depth of four feet with the murky waters. Maay buildings were totally wrecked. Up to this hour six persons are known to have been found dead in the wreked buildinsrs. The damage to property is estimated at $100,000. Struck a Gold Mine. Howard, Dak., Aug. 31. Great excite ment exists all classes here, brought about by the finding gold dust thickley mixed with sand thrown from an excavation which the workmen were digging for well purposes. Old miners were soon on the spot and pronounced the find as a very promising one. From a quantity obtained, an essay was made, valuing the quality at $18 per ounce. The only trouble is if the vein is found, will be the nearness of water to the surface, as exca vations of 150 feet quickly fill with wa ter to the depth of 130 feet. The find seems to lie under the surfce of the main street of the town. Found Dead on a Sand Bar- Dakota Citt. Neb., August 31. Sher iff Brasficld was this afternoon notified that the body of a dead man had been found on a sand bar of the Missouri river about twelve miles below here and at once started thereto. There are conflict ing rumors concerning the dead man, one being that he was found a quarter of a mile from high water mark, and that he was undoubtedly murdered, while another report ia that he is doubt less the man, Robert Powers, who recent ly fell from a bridge at Sioux City. Canada Wiil Open Her Ports. Toronto, Ontn August 31. A special from Ottawa says: "The bluster and rant indulged in by minister Thompson at Ilagersville have not weakened the be lief, which is geutral here, that at tomor row's meeting of the cabinet privileges of purchasing supplies and transhipping cargoes in Canadian ports will be granted to American fishing vessels, and that ca nals will be made free to the vessels of both countries.'

The race started, but Williams and HeflTel- flnger knew little or nothing of the intrica cles involved in the management of the double shell which they were pulling, and in consequence when the first half mile had been covered they caught a heavy crab, and the boat being overturned both ambitious young mariners were plunged into tho water. Libby was unaware of the accident until a quarter mile ahead, when happening to turn his head he saw his two opponents swimming for shore, towing the boat with them. lie rowed back to them and towed lleffelnuger to shore, where a large throng had assembled, watching tho affair. A row boat went out for Williams. After he had been towed al most to shore he stopped and swam back for a distance. lie was seen to dive and remain unaer water tor a wuue, ana wnen ne came up ho held up something in his left hand, re marking: "By Jove, I've got it, anvway." "Got what?" said the man in the rowboat who was out for Williams' rescue. "Found a pearl F' . "Found nothing," said Williams. "I've recovered my glass eye."

In our climate the temperature may range during a single year through 130 degs. in the shade, though a range of more than 110 degs. is unusual. Our food requirements m sum mer differ from those in winter. One of the chief uses of food is to produce heat within our bodies, for heat is as much an essential part of us as is muscle, nerve or bone. A variation of a few degrees of animal heat either way is fatal. The temperature of the human body in a state of health is the same the world over in Greenland and at the equator. Animal heat is generated within the body by wonderful chemical processes, from the raw material furnished by food. iNature within us and nature without us work together herein. Some foods merely generate heat; others nourish, or furnish force. Now an un vitiated appetite craves and re- fects, according to the need. The Green' under craves beat producing fat, but food into which fat largely enters is unsuited to lummer. Sugar, also, is mainly a heat pro ducer; therefore cakes and sauces, rich in sugar and fat, are mischievous in the hot months. The system, already weakened by the heat without, is further heated by the beat elaborated within, and is still further weakened and rendered susceptible to disease by its inability to assimilate what may have been digested. This throws exhausting worn on the eliminating organs. Here again we see the harmony of nature within and without. In summer the normal taste is for the fresh vegetables, in which nature Js then so lavish. Most of these vegetables have little heating property. Moreover, they abound in water, which the system then demands. Again, cold is a tonic, and long continued heat a depressant. In winter digestion is more vigorous, and this makes the appetite better. In summer, therefore, our food must be less in quantity. Indeed, quantity then tells more unfavorably on health than does quality. The getting rid of waste keeps the eliminating organs at a high and dangerous tension, and that, too, when weakened by climatic conditions. Yet many persons eat the same in summer as in winter, and spur their feeble appetites with various stimu lants. It is not woc--:rful that, when the laws c,f health are thus disregarded, the season )s pre-eminently the sic&jy one, al though so much life in the open air should make it a healthy one. food includes water and water constitutes the larger part cf the body. It (s also the solvent both of food and waste, py its evaporation on the surface the bodily tem perature is kept at its proper point, fcienee it should be drank freely in summer but not iced. Youth's Companion. Catching a Poison Snake. "When yon come upon your cobra, make him tear un and expand his hood- He gen erally does this quickly enough, but shpuld he delay, whistle to him, imitating the snake charmers. He will then certainly raise his head. Then, with a small cane or stick, or the ramrod pf a gun, gently press his head to the ground. The snake will not object; he seems rather to like it. When you press his head lightly to the ground with the stick in your left hand, you should seize the snake with your right, close behind the bead, hold ing hjs nepk rather tightly; then let go the stick and catch, hplcj of the fail. The snake is powerless, and yon can do what you like with it Popular Science Monthly. BUSINESS DIRECTORY. ATTOUNKY. 8. F. THOMAS. Attorney-at-Law ami Notary i'ublie.
