He bas e- ceived one ‘‘Reo,” aud two *‘Max- wells,” one of the latter being a touring car -and the other a run- about.

Mr. Dailey is an important factor in the democratic circles of the state, and he is one of the shrewdest men of that political faith in the «North Star"” state. J.J. Opsahl returned to the city last night from -a business trip to Cass Lake, where he spent yester- day. Mr. Opsahl states that some of the Cass Lake people are unduly exercised at the “statement made that Representative McGarry had been ‘approached by certain interests and asked to make the run for con- gress against Congressman Lind- berz. The article with reference to ‘Mr. McGarry was first published in the Pioneer, as news matter, and given as a rumor, pure and simple, and the Cass Lake folks have it for what it is worth; and P. H. hasn’t denied the rumor. So there you are. D. L. Hickcox, of the firm of Barbeau & Hickcox, has been in Bemidji during the past two or three days inspecting points on the Mississippi river, between Lakes Irving and Bemidji, where the new Soo railway bridge will be built.

The work of building the bridge .across the Mississippi river in Bemidji and also across the narrows, between Cass lake and Pike bay, at Cass Lake, will not-be .commenced for some little time. When this work 1s ‘commenced ‘there will be a steam ‘piic-driver at'each place. Folks who .bhave .been robbing cloths lines of valuable articles that are hung on the line to dry’had - bet- ter desist, or ‘there ‘is ‘liableto be something doing ‘in ‘the ‘municipal court. A few evenings ago, several clothes lines were robbed of many valuable - things, including lace affairs, which.could be of ‘no ‘value whatever except to the owner,as mementoes,-orpresents. ‘Among the lines ‘which suffered because of ‘the ‘depredation of the covetous/ones was ‘the line in the yard of Harry Koors’ house. The person who took these articles from the Koors’ line has been;pretty:certainly identified; sand all that Mrs. Koors:asks is that :the ‘articles be returned,-in ‘which -case nothing will be said. Should ‘the stolen-articles-not’be “returned ‘with- in forty-eight hours, the sefvices of a policeman will be obtained and there is liable to be aisensational -trial .in bile sales during'the coming year. the municipal-court. *‘A word to the |’ wise is sufficient.” A. H. Harris, the traveling repre- sentative for the Melges Bros, Com- pany, went to Laporte this morning on a business mission, WATERS STILL RISING AT PARIS City Threatened With Fur- ther Damage by Floods. - GARRISON AIDS IN FIGHT Fifty Thousand Troops Placed at the Disposition of the Municipal Authori ties—Industrial Life of the City It Rapidly Becoming Paralyzed, Most of the Underground and Surface Railways Being Tied Up. Paris, Jan, 2 .—Water laps the quaye at the Place de la Concorde. Tele graphic communication in the south of France is going to pieces rapidly The upper waters of the Loire are ris ing rapidly, threatening a new disas ter. The military authorities have made arrangements to dynamite the Alma bridge, as the continued rise of the Seine makes it almost inevitable thal driftwood and wreckage will lodge a disastrous amount of wreckage againsi the bridge. The bridge is one of the most beautiful structures on the Seine The weather grows.worse rathel than better and Paris is the center ol an area of low pressure and bitter cold and rain and sleet were falling throughout the flooded regions, adding to the suffering of the poor and home less ones. The price of bread and other food has increased, owing to the act that communication with the provinces is crippled. Fifty thousand soldiers comprising the garrison of Paris have been placed at the disposition of the municipal au thorities to fight the flood. At 8 a. m. the water at Point Royal had touched twenty-six feet above low tide and was rising at the rate of near- ly-one-half an inch an hour, with the prospect of the rise continuing for some time. Half of the telephones in the city are out of commission-and telegraph and railroad communication is de- ‘moralized. Damage Already Done Is Immense. The damage already done is incal- culable. The - industrial life of the city is rapidly becoming paralyzed. Only two sections of the subway are in operation, while three-fourths of the surface lines are tied up. Factories are shutting down because of the lack of power due to the ‘electric plants having been fiooded. The disaster locally ig due chiefly to the fact that the whole marvelous un- derground architecture of. the . city, which is honeycombed with labyrinths, is filling up with water, causing the sewers to burst and the streets to cave in and threatening the foundations of buildings. v The scene on the river front is ma- Jestic but appalling. The stream has broken its barriers at several points and is pouring its yellow torrents into the surrounding streets, converting them into veritable lakes. At any min- ute it may be necessary to blow up the Alma bridge, where the water is but a few inches from the keystone of the arch, as a dam there might turn the course of the Seine in such a way as to flood several of the most fash fonable sections of the city. Physicians fear an epidemic when the flood :subsides, as the overflowing sewers are likely to contaminate the drinking water. Furthermore swarms of rats driven out of their underground homes are invading residences. MOST SEVERE IN YEARS Germany Experiences Snow Storm of Great Violence. Berlin, Jan. 2 .—Germany is experi- encing the most violent snow storm in years. - Railroad and street traffic ig greatly impeded and telegraphic and: telephonic -communication has been interrupted. A dispatch from Hamburg says that vessels are unable to leave the Elbe, owing to the heavy seas and -snow storm. ‘At Kiel two fisher boats were capsized in the bay, the crews being rescued by lifesavers with the great- est difficulty. At Flensburg the hurri- cane is driving the sea over the dams. | A destructive fire occurred at Duls-: burg in'consequence of a quantity of carbides stored in a factory becoming wet. The Elephant at Bay. Twenty years of experience tells me that a whole regiment of lions cannot produce the same moral effect as one twelve foot African tusker when he cocks his big, sail-like ears, draws him. self up to his full height and looks at you, letting off at the same time s “blood curdling scream, while In all probability others invisible to you are stampeding-on -all sides with the.dirn and vibration .of an earthquake. Sur rounded in a dense jungle by a herd of elephants, they seem to block out the whole horizon. One I measured was actually sixteen feet from edge of ear “to edge of ear. No wonder my finsig nificant self seemed to shrivel and my huge .express rifle to .dwindle into a mere ;pea shooter. Try as I will op such, occasions, I can never. overcome my sense of terror and always feel| inclined to throw down my elephant gun ‘and run’ for safety till I drop.- ‘W. G.
