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

reach $000 or $700.

ried nwny. The abutment to the Steam

has been partially carried away , necessi
tating the shutting down of the mill. At
Socor the dnm nnd saw mill have boon

The lilnic-KIIri Club.
Under the head of unfinished business
Col. 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

'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

"An * who has consistency ? " demanded
Prof , Embargo Green , as ho rose up
with a side-ways motion , and upset
Samuel Shin and the atools. "Tako do
record of any public man in do kontry ,
from do president down to alderman , nn'
ho stultifies hissolf six days in do week
an' dodges on the seventh. Whar' you

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.

BISMAIICK , Dftk. , March 28. 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.

"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. "
