AUSTIN, July 1.—There has been an- other twenty-four hours of continuous | heavy rainfall throughout the flooded districts of Central and South Texas, with result that the rivers and streams | have had their overflows greatly aug- mented, inflicting additional loss and damage, aggregating hundreds of thou- sands of dollars to the agricultural in- terests. The rainfall in this immediate section last night was over two inches | and east of here, along the course of the | Brazos River, it exceeded that amount. In a number of localities the down- pour was in the nature of cloud-burst, which destroyed growing crops and | property of various descriptions. It is | the most remarkable period of weather ever recorded in Texas. To-day reports | were T ed of terrific' floods in the | Nueces, ‘Guadaloupe and othe streams | of the southwestern parts of the State. | The full effect of the floods of (he} Brazos and Colorado rivers are now being felt in their far lower courses | and for a distance of over one hundred | miles back from wheére these streams| empty Into the Gulf, and for a width| of miles, the whole country is under water. The bottom lands are -not only overflowed. but hundreds of thou- sands of acres located some distance back from the main channels of the | streams are flooded to a depth of sev- | al feet. As this still water hss no| outlet it will remain for some time after high wate in the streams have sub- | sided, totally ruining the growing crops.

He stated that the loss to the cotton planters in that | section alone would ~ aggregate three | quarters of a million dollars, and that | arrived the total loss in the would cer- tainly reach. 200,000 bal In addition | their “growing ‘crops, many lanters have had their sub- | arm-buildings swept away. It | ) seldom that a_disastrous flood oc- | s in the. Brazos and tributary { of levees is afforded the planters, and | for this reason the losses are much | iter than ‘they otherwise - would | By have been. It is the first time in the history of | "Fexas that all the raflroads in the State have been practicaily tied up on ae- count of floods. There are a few lines | in the northern part of the State that | are still uninterrupted, but on all the principal roads traffic is completely suspended. Many costly steel bridges, long stretches of trestle work and scores of miles of track and roadbed are washed away. When the waters | subside it will take several weeks to re- | pair the roads. Numerous unconfirmed | reports of deaths by drowning have | reached here. In Washington County | several negro families living in a clus- ter of ccbins in the Brazos bottoms are said to have been cut off from all ape by the flood, and, the piece of ground upon which they lived is un- | der water, it i3 believed they were swept into the raging current and drowned. Hundreds of men are search- ing the remote localities along the course of the river in boats and on rafts | rescuing negroes and whites from the tops of trees. A telephone message was received | here this evening from Franklin stat- ing that the town of Lake Station, elven miles east of here, is completely under water and that about thirty resi- | dences in the place have been washed | away. The deluge came slowly, enabling | the inhabitants to seek safety on higher grounds. A large number of small settlements | south of Hempstead are also under | water and have been abandoned by the inhabitants. Wild reports are in circulation re- | garding the situation at Calvert, a| prosperous town located near the junc- | tion of the Brazos and Little Brazos rivers. Telegraph and telephone com- munication with the place was abruptly cut off last evening and no word has ‘been received here from there since that time. ‘When the wires went down a message v being sent stating that the town | &) threatened. A complete overflow and a_heavy ‘loss of life had already occurred, seven bodies of negroes hav- ing been recovered. An effort to-night to secure telephonic communication proved futile. Another storm visited this section, south of Austin, this after- noon, dojng much damage. ADVERTISEMENTS, THE OLD WAY Of Treating Dyspepsia and Indiges- tion by Dleting a Dangerous and Useless One, ‘We say the old way, but really it is a very common one at the present time and many dyspeptics and physiclans as well consider the first step to take in attempt- ing to cure indigestion is to dlet, either by sélecting certain foods and rejecting oth- ers or to greatly diminish the quantity usually taken; in other words, the star- vation plan is supposed by many to be the first essential. The almost certain fallure of the star- vation cure has been proven time and again, but still the moment dyspepsia makes its appearance a course of dieting is at once advised. All this is radically wrong. Tt is foolish and unscientific to recommend dieting to a man suffering from dyspepsia, because indigestion itself starves every organ, every nerve and every fiber of the body. What the dyspeptic wants is abundant nutrition, which means plenty of good, wholesome, ‘well cooked food, and some- thing to assist the weak stomach to digest it. This is exactly the purpose for which Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are adapted, and this is the method by which they cure the worst cases of dyspepsia, in other words, the patient eats plenty of whole- some food and Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets digest it for him. In this way the system i nourished and the overworked stomach rested, because the tablets will digest the food whether the stomach works or not. One of these tablets will digest 3000 grains of meat or eggs. Your druggist will tell you that Stuart’s Tablets is the purest and safest remedy for stomach troubles, and every trial makes one more friend for this excellent preparation.

S People Do Not Know Whether to Grumble or Look Pleased at the Vast Expendi- ture. e e to The Call and the New York Copyrighted, 1899, by James Gur- don Bennett, LONDON, July 1—Mention has al- ready been made about two under- ground railroads which are now near- ing completion to the new tunnel un- der the Thames to the great central thoroughfare, which is being made at an enormous cost, appropriating val- uable property and sweeping away whole blocks of buildings in the space of three-quarters of a mile, between Holborn and the Strand, but there are two more great schemes on hand now. One of these is another underground railroad, or rather tram, as it is called. The County Council seems to like the scheme, which, of course, means that it is safe. It will for one thing not be anything like so expensive to build as the other underground systems. It will be just under the pavernents Special Cabl: Herald. and will do away with many incon- | venient, and, most important of all, those abominable street disturb- aused by repairing water pipes, telegraph, electric mains and cables, which at present are always causing such inconvenience through the pulling All these pipes will n the conduit de- ances be carried, hereafter, i signed for the town. The fact is that traffic in the Strand is already badly congested under normal conditions, without being subject to block by the tearing up of the pavement. Undoubtedly the County Council is waking up. They are making the pub- lic open its eyes, too, though the latter cannot quite make up its mind whether to grumble or look pleased. Seven million eight hundred and fifty one dollars is the latest little amount the County Council has added to its improvement scheme account. This is for the long talked about Thames em bankment extension, or rather a bit | of it.

MONTEREY, Mexico., July 1L—'The vellow fever situation in Southern Mex- ico is very alarming. The epidemic has spread to so many coast and remote interior points that the danger of the contagion becoming general throughout the low lands of the country is very great. Dr. L. E. Cofer of the United | States Marine Hospital service has gone to Vera Cruz, where he wiil conduct a thorough investigation of the epidemic with a view of adopting some method that will insure against the disease being carried to United States ports and border points. In conjunction with this proposed precautionary method Dr. Cofer has al- ready arranged with the officials of the | railways entering the City of Mexico | and from Vera Cruzand all intermediate | points, as well as from all other places south of that city, to keep a check on all passengers and to notify the United States quarantine inspectors of all per- sons who come from the infected dis- tricts. Dr. Cofer will arrange a system of | issuing certificates to all railway pas- sengers who desire to enter the United | States, reciting the movements of the passenger and baggage for a period of | ten days previous to the entry into the | United State.s | The Marine Hospital service treats | every place south of Vera Cruz to the | Guatemala border, including Progreso and Coatzacoalcos, as infected.. It is clearly realized that it is going to re- quire éxtreme vigilance to prevent the disease spreading to the United States through the gulf ports of the Texas border. Used a Confederate Stamp. A farmer living in Highland County who desired to makeé a deposit in one of the Staunton banks, sent his money by regi tered mall. This is not out of the ordi ary, because. this s a safe way to send money, but the peculiar part of the tra action is that the farmer used a 10-c Confederate stamp, presumably not know ing the eivil war has ended, and anothe it is that the letter passe nds of the Highland Staunton offics without being detes Staunton (Va.) ectator.
