There will be some important changes on the Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Middle and Altoona divisions. Banks Duncan has a remarkable curiosity on exhibition at his cigar store, 004 Fourth street. It is something in the shape of a 'fctnall turtle but possesses ten legs. It was brought to this city in a car load of bananas. When he attempted to jump on a wagon yesterday afternoon at Eighth street and Sixth avenue, Michael, the young son of Sergeant Morgan, of the city police force, had one of his legs caught in a wheel and very painfully injured.

Letters held at the postoflice: Improperly addressed Mrs. Elizabeth McKnight, 1312 Thirteenth street; Mrs. Joseph Barr, 819 Seventh rvenue; Mark Fuqua, 142D Eleventh avenue. For Postage Miss Maude Bush, Germantown, Fred Wehrley, Bloom field, Pa. During all these arrests and counter arrests in connection with the murder of Joseph Parte, on Suuday last, James Mo-rello still remains among the missing.

He has probably joined Jeville who has found it convenient to keep away from Altoona since the death of his wife. In the notice of the marriage of Mr. Christ. Glaub and Miss Ada Dickson yes-terday it was stated the marriage took place in the parsonage of Christ's Ee-formed church by Eev. A.

C. Moyer. This was a mistake, as the ceremony was performed by Eev. Father O'lloilly Id St. Mark's Catholic church.

John Lehr was yesterday arrested on a warrant charging perjury issued by Alder--man Smith, and gave bail for a hearing today. The suit is the outcome of the recent trouble on Ninth avenue in the Italian quarter, and wus brought by Thomas Lordi, who has himself been arrested several times in connection with the murder of Sunday last. In accordance with previous notice a large number of the citizens of the First precinct of the Eighth ward met at the butcher shop of Harry last evening for the purpose of naming candidates for delegates to the caunty convention. John G. Kline presided and C.

C. Lightfoot acted as secretary. The following well known citizens were named for delegates: Jesse Eickabaugh, John G. Kline, Harry Wetst and Thomas Blackburn. THERE are a remarkable number of new styles in Dress Goods this season, the many in floral patterns showing that Challi effects are the first in popular demand.

This is particularly so in French Challies and they are generally followed by other lines. The result is a host inexpensive yet pretty fabrics resembling wool, that can be made into tasteful and becoming toilets in simple or striking effects, according to the taste of the wearer. The wool Crepons are still favorites for street wear and are remarkable in color effects, sulphur, pale green, reddish tan, blondine, flat and light brown, brown and grey, in stripes, figures and Chevrons; reproduced in the Cheviots and Vicuna Cloths. Bedford Cords in light tints still hold their first position flanked by Serges, Mohairs and Camel's Hair mixtures. All these are represented in our Colored Dress Goods Department and many others not including our handsome line of Colored Silks.

Of the large lot of elegant Pattern Dress Goods introduced this Spring we have a few left, handsome in color and design but somewhat, reduced to close out. One Pattern Crocodile Cloth, tan. $10.00. One Pattern Novelty, blue and steel. 10.00.

SOME NEWSY NOTES. Charlie Manlove will make a good umpire and it is a pity that Daniel Campbell didn't get an advance above substitute. He was always a square one. Pitchers out of positions or who have been released are now anxious to get into the state league at salaries well, in some cases the limit is nowhere. i After all the fuss and blow over Drawhy, it would take a Philadelphia lawyer to solve the problem of who he belongs to.

Harrisburg claims him, but Lebanon has a right to his services. George Goodhart, heretofore reported to be signed by Harrisburg, has accepted terms with Altoona and will be seen here during the season as the receiving end of one of the batteries which will win Altoona the pennant.

1025 Arch Street, Philadelphia, May 4, 1892. General Orders No. 7. I. Once more the returning spring with its opening flowers resurrects the memory of our fallen comrades, and reminds us of the approach of our sacred Memorial Day.

We see them as they fell when, more than a quarter of a century ago, the flood-tide of death swept them from our side; we see them -scattered along our march of the passing years, some with the dews of death not yet wiped away and the flowers still fresh sprinkled with the tears of loved ones. Those of us that remain are but few in comparison with those who sleep beneath the ground that shall echo with our solemn tread. Soon we must commit this sacred duty to other hands; let us do it faithfully while we can. It is timely and profitable we should once again repair to the graves of our fallen comrades, and let the memory of their heroic deeds baptize us afresh with loyalty to their heroism and devotion to their country. Need I urge upon you that each step and action on that day be so fraught with regard for the occasion and reverence for the departed comrades that we shall command the respect and commendation of every citizen throughout the nation.

Let us reverently and tenderly garland with nature's purest and most fragrant gift each mound where sleeiis our affectionately think of the unknown and unmarked graves of our patriot brothers, remembering that in this solemn mission we have the sympathy and prayers of the widow and orphan, and the blessing of a grateful republic. II. Arrangements will be made by the posts in this department lor the observance of Memorial Day, Monday, May 30, 1892. Comrades are enjoined to see that this sacred duty is performed in a solemn and reverent manner. III.

In localities where there are moro than one post co-operation in the ceremonies should be observed. IV. Forms for Memorial Day services can be had upon application to these headquarters. By commmand of Department Commander John P. Taylor.

Samuel P. Town, Assistant Adjutant General. The Epworth Leaarue Entertainment. vThe entertainment given by the Epworth league of the First Methodist Episcopal church on Thursday evening was a most delightful one and one of the very best ever given in this city by local talent. The church choir, under the efficient leadership of Robert Johnson, opened the exercises by an excellent and well-rendered anthem.

Misses Helen Greer and Lucy Wilson played finely in a difficult duet. Miss Sallie Gardner recited well, "How He Saved St. Michaels." Miss Bertha Trout read a humorous selection on "The Tramp" in a manner that was very well received. Miss Wood recited in'her usually impressive manner. Miss Kate Zuber, of Danville, who is visiting Mrs.

Albert Boyer, sang sweetly in a pretty song entitled, "Happy Birds," with guitar accompaniment. After recess Mr. H. T. Hanmer, in a humorous selection, entitled "Uncle Daniel," delighted the audience and filled everybody with laughter.

Miss Nellia Piper sang "Slumber On" in a very pleasing manner. The quartette by Miss Juniata Stewart and Messrs. Hanmer, Woodcock and Green was well received. Miss Marie Stewart gave "Bock of Ages" in a most pleasing and impressive manner. She was assisted by her sister and Miss Trout, who sang portions of it as a duet.

All the above named persons were warmly applauded and several were encored. Miss Zuber closed the literary exercises in a recitation named "Catharine's Visit to New York or, Simon's Wife's Mother Lay Sick of a Fever." In elocution as well as music Miss Zuber showed herself talented and well trained. Her recitation received well merited sounds of applause. Eesponding to the encore given her she acquitted herself finely in a heavy selection entitled; "The Judge and the Everybody was delighted with the young lady's talent and we hope to hear her soon again. We understand she will accept engagements for churches at moderate rates.

Aftef the exercises refreshments were served in the lecture room and was well patronized. Miss Little's art gallery was a complete success. The finest and most extensive of the kind we have ever seen here and reflected much credit on this young lady. The house was well filled by an appreciative audience and all pronounced the entertainment one of the finest ever given by home talent in the city. Roland Reed.

The bright favorite will present his latest successful comedy, "The Club Friend," at the Eleventh Avenue opera house Wednesday evening: In reviewing this play an exchange says: "Mr. Eeed made a step in advance toward legitimate comedy in his present play, and that step is beginning. Where Mr. Eeed will end is safe to predict. He will be an admirable successor to Jefferson, although it will take some years to accomplish thoroughly that purpose.

Unquestionably, when Mr. Eosenfeld wrote the play, he had Mr. Eeed in view. The part is an essential one for an actor of Reed's type, and there are so few like him that the character of Filbert is his and his alone. He had a large and friendly audience to greet him.

The Star theatre was 'packed and JMr. Eeed had to respond, to the ovations. His success in "The Club Friend" is due chiefly to his work. Mr. Reed avoided all the bye-play that he so freely indulged in in his other plays and depended strictly on his droll-ness to carry him through.

He was humorous at all times. Laughter and tears mingled in the last act, which was a beautiful ending of a charming story, well acted and well received. Mr. Eeed is to be congratulated on his achievement. He has attained such a position among comedians that he will ever be looked upon as an exponent of pure comedy in its richest sense.

A Bold Robberv. Mr. Eobert Shultz. who resides at No. 221 Seventh avenue, went home about half-past 9 on Thursday night and before 11 o'clock he and his wife and his daughter, Miss Kate, had retired for the night.

So far as known the house was securely locked p. At about 2 o'clock Friday morning Mrs. Shultz was wakened by the noise made by a cat which jumped upon her bed. She went down stairs to leave the animal out and found that the dining room window and the kitchen door were open. No attention was paid to this, however, and she retired to her bed.

In the morning a somewhat startling discovery was made. Sixty-five cents in change was found upon the floor of the room occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Shultz, and a further investigation showed that during the night Mr. Shultz's pocket bad been robbed of $45.

Six dollars were taken from the pocket of his wife, as well as a pair of bracelets belonging to her which were in the room. His daughter's room had also been visited by the unknown thief and $2 in money and a gold watch were taken. Were Painfully Burned. An explosion that might easily have been much more serious in its results than it was occurred in the wheel shop, W. F.

Miller, foreman, at half-past 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon. Joseph List, of 1918 Third avenue, Eichard Evans, of 1330 Seventeenth avenue, and another man whose name was not learned, were pouring a ladel of lead into a passenger engine wheel. The wheel had been nearly filled when the lead came in contact with a drop of water and an explosion ensued, the hot molten metal burning all three men. List was the most seriously injured, and at first it was thought that his eyesight had been ruined, but fortunately this proved to not have been the case. He was taken to the hospital, where it was found necessary to cut away pieces of lead from his eyelids.

His arms, face and neck had been so badly burned that it. was found necessary to put him to bed. Evans was not so badly injured. He was also given treatment at the hospital, but was able to go to his home. The Behring' Sea Troubles.

Washington, May 13. It is stated on the authority of Secretary Blaine that Mr. Justice Harlan, of the United States supreme court, and Hon, John Morgan, United States senator from Alabama, have been selected by the president as arbitrator on the part of the United States in the Behring sea arbitration. Hon. E.

J. Phelps, late United States minister to England, has been selected as chief counsel for the United States. Better Change the Election. Laws. Providence, E.

May 13. The fifth attempt to elect the seven representatives to the general assembly who failed of an election at the previous trials was held today and aesulted iu the choice of six out of the lot, all democrats, by majorities ranging from 55 to 190. It will require another election to choose the remaining An Answer to E. R. Baldriere The Official Action of Mr.

Quay. Eds. Tkibuse: In the manifesto issued and signed by certain gentlemen of Holli-daysburg against Senator Quay, and certain letters emanating from the same source that have appeared in your valuable paper from time to time, the entire burden of complaint is that Senator Quay is a boss and has so influenced his friends in the state as to give bad nominations to the party, and they cite especially the nomination of Delamater as the one that should not have been made. Our people cannot forget that the convention that nominated Delamater for governor was composed largely of influential men and leaders from all parts of our great state, and completed its work by nominating Watres, of Lackawana county, for lieutenant governor, and Thomas J. Stewart as secretary of internal affairs, and both of these last named gentlemen were elected while Delamater was turned down.

Neither can the fact be lost sight of that Senator Delama tor ran against his excellency, Governor Pattison, who is conceded to be the most popular democrat in Pennsylvania, and has the largest republican following in this state of any democrat in the country. And these same gentlemen who now clamor against Quay and charge him with Dela-inater's defeat can just as consistently charge him with ex-Governor Beaver's defeat, and in all candor is it fair to make this charge in view of the popularity of Governor Pattison and the manifest desire of the people to honor him as they had done once before in electing him over the gallant veteran, General Beaver. But even count this, it would be but one, and the only mistake that has been or can be charged against the junior senator, and it must be further remembered that up to this time Senator Delamater was looked upon as one of the foremost and most popular leaders in Western Pennsylvania, and was considered in every respect fully qualified for the high position of governor of the commonwealth. The voters of Altoona should especially feel like honoring Senator Quay. When our citizen's committee waited 'upon congress two or more years ago, asking for a public building, Senator Quay assured them, as did also Senator Cameron, that as soon as the bill was introduced in the house, it should not fail in the senate.

"This promise was faithfully kept and the senator has again shown his interest in our people by passing the bill again through the senate at this present session, and as far as the senate is concerned it has done its full duty toward Jour people, and in all other matters Senator Quay, as far as it has been in his power, has aided Altoona, and especially the veteran soldiers are grateful to him for his interest in their cause, and not one has ever written him on any subject, and especially the subject of their pensions, that has not received a prompt reply. As to other services in the senate, he has voted right on all measures and is recognized "over the entire country as one of his party's greatest leaders, and the more he is belittled and abused, the more striking is the contrast of his distinguished services. He does not claim to be a speech-maker, but he is an earnest, efficient and effective worker. As to the arguments advanced, that he was opposed to the nomination of Hon. John Doan for supreme judge, we call attention to the following article, from the Altoona Gazette, which is simply unanswerable, and decidedly settles that question: The people of Blair county are the last who should turn against Senator Quay at this time.

There has been much talk of his "opposition" to Judge Dean in the recent state convention. Let us look at the facts. Senator Quay was himself a delegate to the convention. He sent a substitute, and that substitute voted for Dean from beginning to end. Of all the active personal supporters ef Senator Quay in the convention only oneFrank Willing Leach voted or worked against Blair county's candidate.

Such recognized Quay lieutenants as E. K. Martin, of Lancaster; Major Warren, of Luzerne, and Lieutenant Governor AVatres, of Lackawanna, were openly and actively forjudge Dean. There was a reason for the course of Mr. Leach, and Senator Quay had no part in it.

Mr. Leach holds office in Philadelphia. He was, therefore, expected to pull with the Philadelphia crowd. He supported Henderson because it was policy, from a personal standpoint, for him to do so. All the solid Quay counties supported Dean, such as Beaver, the home of the senator; AVash-ington, Westmoreland, Chester, Lebanon and Cumberland.

If Quay had said the word the probabilities are all of these counties would have swung to the other side. Quay did not say. the word. He was for Judge Dean. In conclusion, we might go on and fill columns of your paper with reasons why the people of Blair county should vote for Senator Quay, and we have entire confidence in their udgment, and firmly believe they will, like the thousands of other republicans in our sister counties, that have already voted on this--question, say by their votes that this is not the time to turn their backs upon the man who has proven to be so effective and capable a leader as Senator Quay has proven himself to be.

We have great respect for his assailants, but we do not think the republican voters of Blair county are going to do other than give Senator Quay their almost unanimous support, not only for his eminent and distinguished services as a party leader, but also for his upright course and dignified bearing as a United States senator. Bepublican. Their Third Anniversary. Our Hollidaysburg correspondent writes: The Epworth league of young people in the Methodist Episcopal church will hold devotional exercises, commemorating the third anniversary of that organization, in the church at 11 o'clock on Sunday morning.

Closing Exercises. For S. Stayer. Eds. Teibune: Dr.

A. S. Stayer, who was a member of the last legislature, is a candidate for re-election, in accordance with the unwritten rules of the party. He ought to be renominated without opposition and that this may be done voters should see that his name is on their ticket sat the primaries. He is a good man and a good citizen.

He was a faithful representative at the last session, having been in his seat 140 out of the 143 days of its continuance, and he was ever faithful to the interests of the county and city. He was very efficient in aiding Representative MacIJonald to secure the appropriation of 59,000 for the Altoona hospital, a fact that should secure him the practical gratitude of our people in the way of hearty support. In the event of his reelection it is probable that he will be a member of the appropriations committee, a position which would enable him to be of great service to the city. 1 hope he will get a generous support in the city and county, for he deserves it.

NO ARRESTS HAVE YET BEEN MADE Syracuse, Y. May 13. Paymaster Fox, of the Solvay Process company, was waylaid and robbed by masked men in the town of Geddes at 10 o'clock this morning. It is Mr. Fox's duty every Friday, as paymaster, to drive to the quarries of the company at Split Rock with the wages of the I 250 men employed there.

He has made oLii.ii nips iu ii i wo-M ueeieu can, anu mt. Houses, who is the barn man at the company's stables, went along as driver. They never deemed it necessary to carry arms. They carried with them the money for the employes. Evervthinar went all right until they were just west of the houses or a farmer named Wheaton.

There two men suddenly sprang from behind a stone wall and one of them cried: "Hold up your hands:" The men wore long black masks coming down below their chins. They were of medium height, rather slim, but wiry built, supposed to be between 30 and 40 years of age. Xhtey wore workingmen's clothes and overalls, which were probably taken oil" after they got away. When Mr. Fox and Mr.

Houser looked into the muzzles of four big revolvers in the hands of the thieves they were not longindecidingthat it was proper under the circumstances to obey the then they were told to get out of the cart. One of the robbers covered the victims with his guns while the other fellow proceeded to bind the victims. Their manner of tying the men was peculiar. They fastened the right foot of each man "to his left knee and then secured their hands behind their back. Then the robbers picked Fox and Houser up one at a time and threw them over the stone tence.

Quickly jumping into the cart the fellows drove away, and as they were leaving the prostrate men they yelled back "You will be all right if you lay still awhile." At that one of the robbers tired a single shot in the air, which might possibly have been a signal to others. Fox and Houser had very little to say to the men. They think they must have lain on the ground at least 15 minutes, when Houser succeeded in freeing one of his hands. Pulling out his knife he quickly cut the ropes that bound his feet and then freed Fox. They then started toward the quarries.

Soon they met a man who gave the name of Manley leading back the horse and cart. The money was gone. Manley said he found the rig about a mile west of the quarries. It is supposed that the robbers left the horse at that place and took to the woods. Paymaster Fox hurried along to the quarries and telephoned to Treasurer Hazard at the works the facts.

Mr. Hazard immediately notified the chief of police, who at once put detectives on the trail of the highwaymen. Mr. E. H.

Foley, foreman at the quarry, formed a possee of his men and set out to run the bandits down. By 11.30 the country around the quarries was being scoured. It is believed that the men are Americans who knew that Paymaster Fox passed over this road every Friday with a large amount of money. The amount stolen was 2,300. The robbers have not yet been captured.

ABOUT MR. PLTJMMER. Some Views of the Tyrone Times Which May Interest You. Eds. Tribune: Here is an article from the Tyrone Times about J.

Lee Plum-mer, candidate for register and recorder, which your readers will find worth reading: We are now practically at the close of one of the liveliest local campaingns that has been held in this county for years. During the past weeks and months the campaign has been conducted fairly upon the merits of the candidates. Although the contest has been very warm, nothing but good feeling prevailed between the different office seekers. From the beginning of the campaign, our friend J. Lee Plummer, has taken the lead in this end of the county and has led all his competitors by far.

Mr. Hummer's opponents can say nothing against his personal character, nor can they dispute that he has made one of the best officials county ever had. The business of his office is conducted so systematically that he has saved lawyers, as well as others, much time and trouble in transacting their business. Furthermore, Mr. Plummer is so well versed in the law himself that he has time and again saved poor people the necessary expense of procuring the assistance of a lawyer.

We say, without fear of contradiction, that no man who ever had any business transactions with Mr. Plummer can say that he was in any way Blighted or his business not properly attended to. The poor as well as the wealthy all receive the most cordial treatment from his hands-Jas and it is customary in this county to give all faithful officials a second term, we hope to see our Tyrone people turn out and give their former resident a full and hearty support. We overheard several gentlemen speaking on political matters the other evening, when a Times representative asked their opinion on the candidates for register and recorder. One gentleman said: "I have known Lee Plummer ever since he wore dresses, and he is always the same genial Lee, and I will vote for and do all for him lean.

I don't have the least doubt about his receiving the nomination." Tne other gentlemen all said they were heartily in favor of Plummer. The Altoona Gazette's Tyrone correspondent, on Wednesday evening, says: Lee Plummer will get an almost unanimous vote for register and recorder." Two young men who will cast their first vote spring were discussing the different candidates, on Thursday, when one said: "You can just bet the young voters are all for Lee Plummer. This is my first vote and in it goes straight for Lee." And so on, almost everybody you address is in favor of Tyrone's former citizen. -The Times as early as January last advocated the re-nomination of Mr. Plummer, and we would be more than pleased, next week, to say that he was the successful aspirant.

As 'Cleopatra." Mios Marie Prescott, noted as one of the most beautiful and talented women on the stage, will appear in Altoona next Monday evening and will present, for the first time here, her own dramatization of H. Eider Haggard's famous novel, "Cleopatra." This work may be fairly acknowledged as the best novel Haggard has ever written, with beautiful idyls scattered through its pages from the pen of Andrew Lang. The novel is fresh, brilliant, beautiful. The play differs from Sardou's version of the story, and, indeed, from that of any other writer, in that Antony is almost entirely obliterated, or, at any rate, is used only for the purpose of bringing out in strong relief the great love for Cleopatra by Harmachis, a royal Egyptian brought upas a priest and secretly crowned as Pharaoah of the Upper and Lower Nile. Those events bring him from the obscurity of his birth to the splendor of Cleopatra's court, where he becomes her high priest and her devoted lover, and in turn as devotedly loved by Charmion, Cleopatra's hand-maiden, whose affection, it is needless to say, Harmachis does not return.

As Cleopatra makes no -eturn of her high priest's affection, it will be seen that Harmachis is between two fires. The play ends with the death of the principal personages. A Drunken Moulder's Crime. Ottawa, May 13. Justies Moss, a moulder employed at the Adams factories at Marseilles, disappeared to-day after perpetrating a fearful double crime.

Moss went home drunk and, upon his wife remonstrating with him for his condition, gave her a most merciless beating with his fists and then jumped upon her with his boot heels. The woman, who was in a delicate condition, was taken violently ill and gave birth to a premature child, which died, and the mother, after terrible sufferings, soon followed. A Fatal Waterspout. Pesth, May 13. An immense waterspout burst to-day in the neighborhood of the collieries situated in the city of Fuen-kirchen, the capital of the county of Ba-ranya.

The huge volume of water inundated the surrounding country and poured in a great stream through the mines, flooding them in a very short time and causing a terrible loss of life. It is known that twenty-two men are dead in one pit. THE FOREIGN TRADE IN APRIL During That Month the Exports of Cotton, Breadstuffs, Provisions, Cattle and Oil Increased Over the Same Month Last Year. AN IMPROVED DEMAND FOR IRON New York, May 13. E.

G. Dun weekly review says: The business failures occurring throughout the country during the last seven days number for the United States 130, and for Canada 25. For the corresponding week of last year the figures were for the United States 214. and for Canada 23. The continuance of the very unfavorable weather throughout a large part of the west begins to cause apprehension regarding the crops of the year.

As business of all kiuds depends largely upon agricultural prosperity, halting is natural when, in addition to the decrease in sales and collections which bad weather causes, there is that the farmers in several important states may meet misfortune. In all other respects the situation appears satisfactory, and at most points the prospects for trade are considered more hopeful, so that a short period of good weather would speedily change the temper of business. Actual distribution has gone on very fairly, with less diminution on account of the storms than might have been expected. The money markets are everywhere easy, with visible improvement in the demand at a few points. The labor disturbances which recur at this season, though unusually not yet embrace a great number of men nor seem likely to be prolonged.

At Baltimore manufacturers are active, though building trades are retarded by strikes. At Pittsburgh a better demand for iron is seen and at Philadelphia a fair trade in dry goods, though the western demand is checked by the weather. The south has little to report at this season. Foreign trade in April was remarkable. The exports of cotton, bread stuffs, provisions, cattle and oil increased nearly over the same month last year.

This month's exports from New York show a gain of 25 per cent, thus far over last year. Meanwhile the imports of last year are barely maintained. Money is so abundant that moderate exports of gold cause as yet no fear, and the treasury has been taking in of silver and notes more than it has paid out by $1, 300,000 during the week. Eeports about collections from all parts of the country are favorable, considering the weather and the state of country roads. Wheat has declined 2J, cents on sales of 49,000,000 bushels.

The price on Thursday was 89 cents, instead of the 2 a bushel, predicted by the Farmers' alliance. The government reports show that sensational accounts of decrease in acreage have been, tosay the least, exaggerated. Corn rose a cent, and pork products were slightly stronger, but coffee and oil both declined. The stock market has been dull during the week and the range of prices slightly lower. The spring trade in dress goods still holds on, with a large demand for immediate distributions.

Wool sales at the principal markets since January 1 have been 12,000,000 pounds, or 14 per cent more than last year. More activity is seen in cottons, and while some brown goods have been advanced, prices of prints and many other qualities have been reduced by jobbers and are 5 to 7 per cent lower than last year. In the iron trade a decrease of 7,576 tons in the weekly output in April has improved the demand, and stocks unsold seem to be no longer increasing, though prices gain nothing and are so low as to be trying to many producers.

The Missouri river is ten feet above low water mark, and rising rapidly. It has cut away a hundred acres of land on the west bank four miles above the city. If the river should rise anothe foot it will break into its old channel and sweep down through what is known as Tomah and do hundreds of thousands of dollars' worth of damage. It would leave the manufacturing suburbs of Omaha on an island. Charged With False Imprisonment.
