‘The Aevald- -Heview. By E. Kiley. GRAND RAPIDS. - MINNESOTA. The melancholy days for many office- seekers are here. Mr. Gage is declared to be the hand- somest man in the new cabinet. They can’t beat Chicago. here is a bright side to everything. The city of Canton, Ohio, is now enjoy- ing a brass band famine. A trust has been formed by the man- ufacturers af bourbon whisky. The to- pers of the land have determined to put it down. Turkey claims to have bought three American ironclads. The sultan evi- dently wishes to discover a few more sand-bars in the Mediterranean. Mr. Cleveland is now experiencing the exclusiveness that is accorded an ex-president. Nobody pays the least attention to the number of ducks he kills. By the way, who is it that is trying to recover the American flags capturec. by the Mexicans during the war with that country? There has certainly been no governmental action taken in that direction. A preacher at Normai, Ill., says he uses beer because he is suffering from nervous prostration, resulting from be- ing held up by a footpad. We have often wondered at the enormous con- sumption of the amber beverage. Right here we wish to call your at- tention to a remarkably good map, in at least one respect. Stratton, the Cripple Creek millionaire, refuses to zo into any money-making schemes. “What I’m trying to do,” says he to promoters, “is to keep my income down within the limits of decency.” Are you not pleased to know that there is one rich man who has not desigas on the entire earth? And now Dr. Lyman Abbott of Brooklyn tells us that out of the 150 Psalms David wrote but fifteen. David, therefore, is not the poet many sup- posed him to have been. Then comes Rev. William Lloyd, a congregational minister in New York, who solemnly avers that the story of Balaam and his ass is not literally true. In other words, Mr. Lloyd does not believe the ass spake with the voice of a man. Representative Donovan of Bay City thas introduced a bill in the Michigan legislature to keep bachelors and maids from “going on in their single cussedness.” In explaining the Dill ‘Mr. Donovan says, “We won’t have any penalty for men who have done the best they could and have been jilted, or so homely that no sane wom- an would look at them. These two classes will be exempt from all the penalties of the bill.” The ministers and justices are much pleased with the bright prospect for increased business. ‘A negress who died the other day in St. Louis hospital was probably the fatest woman ever known. She weigh- ed 600 pounds, and when she was taken to the hospital it was almost impossi- ble to get her through the door of the ambulance. She broke the stretcher on which they carried her up stairs, and it took six strong negroes to move her. ‘When she departed this life it took over half an hour to ascertain that she was really dead. The layers of fat ‘between the epidermis and the arteries were so thick that is was impossible to discern the ebbing ang flowing of the blood. A romantic story comes from Holly, N. J., concerning Frank Rice, formerly of that place, but now a wealthy Cali- fornia mining man, and Miss Lizzie Frake. The two were marricJ quietly in Pennsylvania in 18$1, but agreed to keep the marriage secret until success should have crowned the efforts of the bridegroom in the far west. Sixteen years elapsed before the desired result ‘was attained, and a few days ago Rice returned to Mt. Holly and claimed his wife. During all this time they guard- ed their secret so well that their friends never once suspected the true etate of affairs. An aged Chicago spinster, with the msual fondness of her kind for cats, has recently had an unpleasant experi- ence on account of her pets. She had gn unusual number of feline compan- fons; in fact, about thirty pussies were domiciled in her apartments, and the neighbors have made a complaint to the health officers that cats are not de- sired in that neighborhood in such numbers. The woman has occupied the same rooms for eight years, and the Jandlady says that her door was always kept locked to keep out intruders. The fhealth officer has ordered the cats re- moved, and great is the grief of their fond mistress. Germany’s fifteen largest landown- ers own between them 9,000,000 acres of German soil. Prince Wittgenstein fhas 3,000,000 acres, next comes the Duke of Arenberg with 800,000, then in order the Prince of’ Thurn and Taxis, the Duke of Brunswick, Prince Salm Salm, the Prince of Talleyrand-Sagan, who is a French subject; the Prince of Pless, the Duke of Leuchtenberg, Prince Bentheim, Prince Lowenstein, the Prince of Wied (father of the Queen of Roumania) and Prince Fug- ger.

ONE STREET IN THE CITY ABOVE WATER, Hundreds of People Driven From Theim Homes by a Sudden Rise of Water in a Big Coulee—The James River Continues to Fall— Waters Receding at St. Paul—iIn the Mississppi Delta. Fargo, N. D., April 7.—The situation here is appalling. While the Red river rose only three inches last night, the big coulee west of the city took a sec- ond spurt and went up fourteen inches, flooding the entire west side of town and diving hundreds of people from their hones. The water reaches down to Eighth from Sixteenth street, and as | far south of the Northern Pacific track as the eye can reach. It is a popular residence district and the effect of the flood is more forcibly felt. All that part of the city south of Front’ street is inundated, six blocks of Highth street paving having gone out, and the flood from the west side of town is so high that the paving on West Front street is going out rapidly. Sidewalks are all afloat and are being used as rafts upon which families are moving to dry lard. For the last four hours the river has risen only an inch and is practically at a standstill now. All elong Front street water is within a few inches of the floors of the princi- pal business houses and a rise of an- other foot would practically put the entire city afloat. There is much suf- fering among poor families, who have ben practically destitute all winter, and this last blow is the most serious. The relief committee, operated jointly by the city council and the county com- missioners, have established head- quarters and will take good care of the poor. It snowed this morning for two hours. Sections of the city that no one ever dreamed could be reached by the flood are now under water, and Broadway, with a short distance on either side, is the only dry spot in town, and this has been graded up several feet from the natural prairie level, pal, Ses Bismarck—The flood situation here is about the same as yesterday. The gorge below is still solid and another gorge has formed seven miles up the river. “he Northern Pacific tracks are submerged and washed out. No trouble is reported at Mandan as yet, but should the water get much higher it will be serious for that town. rte Wheatland — The worst flood since the origin of this place is prevailing. Citizens are out em masse day and night tryiug to check the large volume of water coming in from the north. People in this town have lost their xvood, outhouses and some stock, —o— Mayville—Water is coming into the streets from the Goose river. A gorge of ice and snow is now forming a few miles west of Hillsboro, which may cause very high water. BCS IN SOUTH DAKOTA, The Water Is Lowering and the Out- look Is Better. Aberdeen, 8. D., April 7.—The water is constantly lowering in this city, and the conditions are gradually get- ting back to the normal. Reports of keavy losses to bridges, farm products, ete., are coming in from the country, but it is believed the worst is over there also. All streams maintain an extraordinary stage of water of nearly a week past, showing that floods in country districts ore gradually finding their way to the usual water courses. Railroads can yet do but little, as the water is too high. Watertown—The einiwed from high water is now over, Lake Kampeska has fallen. The river fell about nine inches. The high water this spring has been without a precedent. During the en- tire flood there was one loss of life re ported, but several head of horses were drowned. The principal damage to farmers has come from the loss of grain and hay in stacks. nig Redfieid — Henry Struive and two sons were drowned on Gus Bull’s farm, six miles south of Frankfort, this county. This makes the sixth death from drowning within two weeks. A farmer north of here named Lund- strom lost a dozen cattle and seven head of horses. The floods exceed anything ever seen in this county. 1 Vermi!lion—The rivet has fallen four inches here. Court nas adjourned until Judge Smith can get here from Yank- ton, which is indefinite. Supt. Beards- ley, of the Milwaukee, expects five miles of track at least between Gay- ville and Jim river will be washed away. ly ee WATERS RECEDING. The Crest of the High Water Seems to Have Been Reached. St. Paul, April 7—The river is at last falling. It remained stationary during the greater part of yesterday, but toward night it began perceptibly to fall. The threatened irruption of the river into the district upon the West side just below Smith avenue bridge, and by means of sewers has happily failed to progress. No addition was made to the small flood in that vicinity. Upon the upper levee all evi- dence of disaster has been removed. ‘The only damage to be feared now is the undermining of houses and build- ings along the river front. Ice houses collapsed in South St. Paul and one or two houses on the flats. The ware- houses and offices along the river front from the foot of Jackson street down are not unconcerned and have attached great ropes to their buildings and braced them to resist any force of the current in case of undermining. ges Warren—The channel of Snake river is filled with snow. This caused the water to run through town and reach to a height never reached before. ‘There are several inches on the floors in the stores on the east side of the railroad track. The railroad bridge and the iron wagon bridge are partially wrecked. ig Little Falis—The Mississippi at this place has fallen about seven inches in the last twenty-four hours, and is now fully two feet lower than the highest point reached last year. So far no damage has been dene and none is an- ticipated. The large log jam has set- tled agairst the new boom piers, but no danger is apprehended, ages Red Wing—The steady rise at this point is watched with concern. Al- ready it has done some damage and an increased height of a few inches will do considerable more. The island op- posite town is submerged. 5 Long Log Jam. Eau Claire, Wis., April 7.—Reports irdicate that the log jam from the Lit- tle Falls dam to Flambeau, a distance of twelve miles, is sixteen feet high and wedged. The water cannot make its way through the jam. All the low lands are flooded and the loss of stock is great. fe 7 THE MISSISSIPPI DELTA. Water Spread Over an Area /That Has Never Been Overflowed Be- fore. Memphis, Tenn., April 7.—The feat- ure of the flood condition in the Mis- sissippi delta is the gradual spread of water over an area that heretofore was never overflowed. So great is the outpour from the upper crevasse in Tunica county 2,000 feet wide that water from below the break is being drawn up and hurled over the fertile valley. The fall in the main channel at Helena, Greenville, Vicksburg and Arkansas City is due to the filling up of the delta and the lower White river country. The supreme question is the duration of the flood. If the lower levees along Louisiana and Southeast- erm Arkansas break and the river con- tinues to fall at Cairo, the upper St. Francis basin and the delta will be clear of water by May 5. In this event there will be no difficulty in growing cotton. The river here is sta- tionery. —o— Jackson, Miss. — The governor has telegraphed Sec-etary Alger asking for an appravriation of $100,000 from con- gress, Wnich, he says, will close the crevasses in this state, give employ- ment to all the needy and allow peo- ple to work land in thirty days. o— Greenville, Miss—The water shows a decline of .2 of a foot in the river, while the backwater shows a slight rise. Caving of the river banks above Greenville was noticed yesterday. The water has not flooded much more of the city and the population is quite comfortable. “HURRAH FOR WAR.” The Greeks Cry for Trouble on ‘Their Fourth of July. Athens, April 7. — The greatest en- thusiasm was manifested here during the fetes to celebrate the anniversary of the declaration in 1821 of the inde- pendence of Greece from Turkish rule. ‘The king and the members of the roy- al family here, accompanied by the ministers and all the high court and other officials of Athens, attended the religious ceremonies at the cathedral where a Te Deum was sung. The king received a great oveation during his passage to and from the.cathedral, and he and the ministers were show- ered with leafelets inscribed “Hurrah for War!” —o— London, April 7.—Truth says that it learns that Queen Victoria is doing her best to secure the appointment of Francis Joseph of Battenberg as gov- ernor of Crete. Governor of Havana Resigns. Havana. April 7. — It is understood that senor Jos Porrua, civil governor of Havana and Western Cuba, has tendered his resignation by cable to Premier Canovas, forwarding by mail the reasons for the act. Capt. Gen. Weyler is said to oppose the resigna- tion, and it is not impossible that the affair may bring about Weyler’s own resigration. Senor Perrua will sail for Spain on April 20. He says his resignation will bring an end of “com- promises and disgust.” Slavery Abolished. Zanzibar, April 7. — The sultan of Zanzibar has issued a decree abolish- ing slavery. It provides that existing rights over concubines shall remain as before, unless her freedom is claimed by a concubine on account of cruelty. But in general terms the concubines will be regarded as wives. The gov- ernment will pay compensation for all slaves legally held Death Approaching. Berlin, April 7. — Dr. Von Stephan, the imperial postmaster general, who was to have been the chief representa- tive of Germany at the Washington postal congress, is dying. Prof. Berg- mann recently amputated Dr. Steph- an’s right leg below the knee, and the patient has been gradually sinking ever since. McKenzie’s Hlness. Lima, Peru, April 7. — The illness from vhbich United States Minister J. A. McKenzie has been suffering for some days has developed the most seri- ous symptoms and his physicians have little hope that he will recover. Practically for Life. Chicago, April 7. — Thomas Flinn, convicted of the murder on Dec. 13 of F. M. Jahns, a bartender, has been sentenced to serve ‘ifty years in the penitentiary. Oil Blazing.

St. Louis, April 7.—The Republicans earried the city by a plurality which will probably reach 14,000. Bond Forger Arrested. Urbana, Ohio, April 7.—Zet Lewis, the notorious bond forger, has been ar- rested at Ypsilanti, Mich. Hip Disease Was My Little Girl’s Trouble—Ab: on One of Her Limbs—Hood’s es :Y arilla Healed the Wound and Built Up Her System. «Years ago my little girl fell and dis- located her hip. Doctors set the bone, but it worked out again, and an abscess came on one of her limbs. The doctor said it was caused by dead bone, and he \ took out four inches of bone. He came to see her every day and washed the wound, but it would not heal: Finally the doctor gave up coming. Then I gave ‘her Hood’s Sarsaparilla, and it proved to be worth its weight in gold. It built up her system, healed the wound and she is now able to walk. She has gained 15 pounds in weight since taking Hood's Sarsaparilla.”—Mrs. Syivia RICHARDS, Rogers, Michigan.
