The now state library has a capacity of about 75,000 volumes. Mrs. Matilda Fletcher is fitting up a residence in DCS Moinca. Sibloy has the prospect of n skating rink 40 by 150 foot in sizo. Scones in the Rock Rapids roller rink are illustrated in the Reporter. The Tribune says the crying need in Sibloy is for moro dwelling-houses. Rock Rip ids has two flouring mills with a capacity of 200 barrels of Hour a day. day.Tho The business outlook in Cedar Rapids is moro favorable than it was a month ago. ago.A A lot ; raft with 50,000 foot , valued at $10,000 , was carried out by the ice at Davenport. Over $350,000 was paid into the county treasurer's office at Des Moines iu Feb ruary. The lady violinist of Fort Dodge is Mrs. Williams. She is an attraction nt church sociables. A movement is started looking to the removal of the county Boat of Inwa county from Marongo to Williamsbuig. The friends of J. 0. Buchanan in Lo Mars , prior to his departure for Springfield - field , III. , preaenteo. him with a gold- headed cane. The LoMara Sentinel says that seeding is going on in that neighborhood in great rapidity , the ground being in good con dition and getting bettor every day , Frank Kooloy , late proprietor of the Hawardon Commercial , has accepted a situation with the Orange City Herald , and baa removed with his family to that place. A Sibloy man , thn Tribune says , makes n practice of abusing his wife and chil dren. A few nights ago his family had to take refuge at a neighbor's to escape his wrath. The journalists o.T on the Now Orleans excursion had mostly retired when the train had nulled into Dukiquo , at M45on ; the evening of the first day. But Dubuque ought not to fool hurt , the hour being HO much past their bed timo. John Dixon , aged 20 , climbed on a car 88 a Rock Island switch engine pulled past the Wataon mine , near Dos Moines , on the 20th. After riding a distance , in trying to got oil' ho full under the cars and both his legs were crushed and ono arm nearly severed from his body , Ho died at 0 o'clpck in the evening.

Wnvorly Republican , 27 : The ice in the sloughs north of town proved n very effectual stump-puller. Many of the largo stumps were incased in nbout two foot of solid ice , nnd when the swelling river olovntod the ice the stumps were torn up by the roota nnd carried by the body of ice into the rivor. Many n n stump thus solidly imbodod shot over the dam , and through the thrpo lines of breakers below , in n perpendicular posi tion. Hamilton Freeman , 20 : Lost Sunday afternoon nnd night A. D. Arthur lost nbout thirty head out of his herd of 700 or 800 calves on his farm in Hamilton township , on account of the overflowing of the Boone rivor. The ground on which nbout 200 head of the calves were kept became suddenly surrounded by the ris ing waters , nnd bcforo the calves could bo removed nbout thirty of them were drowned. Some of the cnlvns were car ried down the river for nearly two miles before they got out or were rescued. It is difficult nt present to toll the extent of Mr. Arthur's loss , but it will probably reach $000 or $700. Eldora Herald , 20 : High water has done considerable damage to property along the lown river in this county. The dnm nnd lower flouring mill nt Alden is almost n complete loan. The dnm nt the woolen mills at lown Falls has been car ried nwny. The abutment to the Steam boat Rock dam has boon damaged con siderably. At the EUlora mills the ilumo has been partially carried away , necessi tating the shutting down of the mill. At Socor the dnm nnd saw mill have boon carried nwny , and the east end of the stone flouring mill has settled two or throe feet , and will probably bo tin entire loss. Wo have not hoard from the Union nnd Eagle City mills , but they have probably suffered somo. Independence social circles are repeat ing n story , with variations , the substance of which follows : In May last Miss Hattie - tie Pendorgast nnd Ohaa. Bushgons were married. They did not live very happily together , nnd in January last , Bushgona wont to Cedar Rapids. After reaching there ho wrote homo that ho wus doing well , but refused to send nny money homo. On the 29th day of February Mrs. Bushgons loft home , stating that she was going to visit her sister nt Mnquo- kota. Since that time nothing has boon heard of her , nnd she fnilod to go to her sister's. At the time she loft , ono George Bry , who has boon living nt Hnzloton , nenr Independence , also disappeared. Ho formerly kept company with Mrs. Bush gons before her marriage , nnd was en gaged to her until her parents , finding that ho had n wife and two children liv ing , broke up the match. It is said that bo recently procured a divorce from his wifo. Lot Us Toll You.

Du Houk called up the following resolution which was laid on the table some weeks ago : ' Jtcsolved , Dat wp nm gradually losin' our reverence fur sich traits of character as make men great in Ufa an' doir memo ries respected artor death. " "A few y'nrs ago , " continued the cole nelas , ho gently caressed his loft oar , "do news dat a county treasurer was a defaul ter in do sum of $10,000 would have seta a hull state agog. At do present data wo pick up our papers an' read of dis treas urer bein' behind , dat cashier skippin * out wid n big pile , an' dis trusted clerk robbin * his employer , nnd wo grin as wo warder If doy will bo cotchod. Asa people wo have lost our reverence fur honesty. Wo oxpock pavin' contractors to do poo' work an" git full pay. Wo oxpcck aldermen to make money by usin' deir oflishul influence.

If wo send him to prison wo turn about ns soon as possible an1 potishun fur his pardon. I hold dat do term 'strictly honest' has no longer any mean- in' . Nobody looks fur it , and if any body diskivors it ho wonders why do pusson hasn't gene to do lunatic asylum or do pee * houso. " "An1 whar am truth , " asked Judge Wjntorgrncn Bascomb in his deep , grand voice. "If honesty has become a sarcasm do man who oxpocks to find truth am considered light in do upper story. Our marchants lie an" deceive. Our lawyers accept a false witness as quick as a true ono. Our highest ollishuls lie about each other.

Whar' you find him ono day you miss him do next. Ho am consistent only when it furdors his own aims and cands. Ho displays honesty , conscipnco and integrity only when do mutterings of do people predict an approachin * storm dat may result in his downfall " Several other members spoke in much the name vein , and a vote was taken and the resolution adopted. The following waa received from North Iloosick : Brother Gardner , President : PEAK Sut There is a man in this vicinity selling a patent bolt for the euro of corns , bunions and chilblains.

At day break this morning it wna discovered thnt the wntor lind risen during the night , nnd much of the low land below the city was inundated , The railroad track between the bridge and Mnudnn is under water , and covered witli ice and fallen trees wliicli o\mo down with the Hood , and telegraph and telephone wires are en tirely prostrated , thus cutting oil'atl com munication with Mandan. A gorge formed at Sibloy island , flvo miles below , and n solid mass _ ot gorge ice now extends - tends from that point to n point between ei ht and nine miles above the bridgo. River men pronounce it the most solid gorge they over saw. This avail ing Mandan wan reached by using the old government line from Bismarck to Fortt Lincoln , and telephone wire from that point , but the information gleaned is very moagro. The water is up to the dyke in the eastern suburbs , nnd south of the track the lower points are under wator. The ohops are yet above the Hood , but \\ill soon bo submerged , if the rise continues. Buildings nnd haystacks oouth , between Bismarck nnd Apple creek , are submerged , but the damngo cannot now bo estimated. At 1 o'clock this morning n largo cake of ice struck the steamer Black Hills aft of the boil ers , nnd toro n hole thirty-five foot long. By the most superhuman efforts of the crow , she was kept afloat until 1 o'clock Jiis afternoon , when she sank , and will irobably IIK A TOTAL LOSS. She was owned by T. 0. Power & Co. , was valued nt about $10,000 , and was 'ully insured. She lies with hull nearly under water , and is being dismantled as rapidly as possiblo. Experienced river men express fears that every boat hero will destroyed when the ice again moves , as nothing can resist the great pressure which will bo brought to bear against thorn. The boats are the Josephine , aonoral Huckor , Rosebud , Eclipse , He lena and Bonton. The boats lying nl. [ lock Haven above Mandan on the west aide tire said to bo in no immediate dan ger. The river is risingly slowly. The water is now within about flvo foot of the highest point reached during the disas trous flood of 1881 , and will doubtless jo far above it. Ton inches moro will roach the flood of the largo warehouse at the landing , and it is in great danger. At Washburn a fall of four foot is recorded in twelve hours. No ice is running , nnd the current does not exceed two miles an hour , which in dicates n gorge above that point , nnd also ; hat water is backing up from the Bis- imrck gorgo. Interest is now centered in the g rgo above Washburn , the break ing of which will lot the Yellowstone rise down upon us. When the Buford gorge jroko the rise vrus recorded at twenty- iwo feet , and if oven half of this reaches us the destruction of property will bo im mense. No trains from the west can bo expected for a week nr more , but trains will bo turned hero and returned to St. Paul. The situation is alarming in the extreme. Both the Bohan sunk on Thursday and the Black Hills are old boats , nnd probably $30,000 would bo a good valua tion for the two. Neither of them was of the largest size for upper Missouri boats , but the Black Hills , being broad of beam , carried heavy loads. The Bohan was purchased by Mandan parties last year , and run as an independent boat between - twoon Mandan and Pierre proving a great convenience to intermediate land ings and posts. Capt. Grant Marsh brought her up the river first with Sit ting Bull , when the latter nnd his band were released from Randall. The Black Hills has run en the upper river for which her light draught epocially fitted her since 1878. Ouro That Cold.

"Water an Hallway Motive Power , A newspaper correspondent writing from Switzerland , tolls of a curious rail way as follows : "Tho picturesque and practical are often curiously intermixed , I glean a few particulars of a funicular railway which connects Torritot ( Chilian ] and Glion. The railway , which is on a stoop incline , something after the style of the one up Mount Vesuvius , com- inoncos at an angle of 32 degrees and soon increases to 57 degrees. It ia n single line with a loop as a passing place half way , There are two carriages on the line , one of which ascends while the other descent's. The ascending carriage ia drawn by the force of gravity of the ono which is descending , tbo latter being weighted by u reservoir placed underneath being filled with water. The reservoir is emptied OB aopn as the carriage has made the descent. The two vehicles are connected with each other by moans of a wire cable , which passes over a wheel at the summit of the incline. By the passenger a remarkable optical illusion is experienced. Trots , huts , houses , rocks , all seem to bo bent back , as though by eotno enchantment. They are apparently standing out of the perpondicuur , and ono can scarcely help wondering that they do not topple over. The deception ia duo to the seats of the carriages , which are constructed at such in angle that , notwithstanding the stoop- nets of the gradient , the occupant pre serves liia ordinary upright sitting post ure. The line is 743 yards long , and the difference between the level of iti base and that of Us summit ia 084 foot.
