THE OKLAHOMA DELUGE.
A SCENE OF DESOLATION ON
THE HANKS OF COTTONf
WOOD HI VEIL
Five Hundred Homes Swept Away,
Fifteen Houses Left by the
Flood,hut Utterly Wrecked,and
. Twenty Stores Ktiincd.
If
Guthrie,Okla.,April *20.?In tho
Hood-stricken valley of the Cottonwood
river to-day has been
one of heroic efforts toward the
rescue of thone unfortunates
whose lives were etill endangered
and for the relief of the hundreds
of destitute and hungry. Tonight
it seoms a certainly that
the loss of life in yesterday's deluge
will not exceed twenty. All
day missing people, supposed
yesterday to have been drowned,
have been found clinging to
bushes or driftwoon down tho
olrno tvt t\ r* . ? 1 % >, f,, m
oiicaiu ui mauriou 111 I ai ill
houses for miles.
Daylight found dozens of people
still clinging to trees, overturned
houses or timbers in perilj
ous positions, which they had
sustained during the whole night.
For miles along the scene of devastation
1,500 people, homeless,
half ill from exposure and liurigor,
passed a miserable night, and
^ morning found most of them too
weak to give much assistance
either to themselves or others.
The scene in the Mood-swept district
this morning was one of desolation.
The river fell rapidly during
the night, and when the sun
rose the extent of the damage
done to property could be seen.
The river is still hank full.but the
water has receded from most of
the inundated districts.
There was u confused mass of
debris and overturned and demolished
houses scatered over the
valley, where last night was a sea
of water. The banks were littered
with the carcasses of farm
animals. Whole blocks where
yesterday stood a home in nearly
every lot, wero stripped, and huge
trees torn up by their roots were
scattered everywhere.
With the first ray of daylight
the work of rescuing and rolief
J was taken up with it will, and
4 kepi up with tireless energy.
During last night men had been
put to work in lumberyards constructing
boats, and dawn to-day
witnessed a dozen crafts darting
out from all directions to the
^ rescue of the unfortunates. The
work of the raftsmen proved most
effective, and ono by one the peo
pie were transported from their
j perilous positions to places of
safety on land. Kvory house,
drift, pile and tree was closely
examined in search of the dead.
The family of Wesley McCjiII, ro|
ported yesterday as drowned, was
found safe. The only bodies
found during the day wero those
of Mrs. Fannie Ituffin and five
children, all lodged in a pile of
.driftwood. These, with (ieorge
Owen, the butcher, drowned
while rescuing others; Frank
Meyers, Mrs. Jane Watt, Mrs.
Francis Moore, Mrs. Drutnmond,
Mrs. Dennis and child and Mrs.
Watson, are the only identified
dead, though many are still missing.
During the day systematic
relief was perfected and carried
on. Ferries piled across the
river, carrying provisions and
clothing everywhere, and returning
with the injured. The luttoi
were carefully cared for in private
homes in Outline. Ity nightfall
ample arrangements hu.1
} boon made for the immediate
care of the homeless, and there
was an assurance of no further
suffering at least for tho time bei
ing.
Five hundred homes were swept
away, tiftecn trouses where wrecked
and twenty stores devasted
leaving 1.000 people homeless and
half as many destitute. The
| work of supplying shelter and
: food for all these was by nc
means a small undertaking. Hut
tho (Jntbreites were equal to the
task, and to-night thousands ol
dollars have been subscribed tc
aid the atllicted.
The damage along the Cimar
i ron River east is very extensive
and hundreds of farms have beer
devastated along Deepfork, ir
Lincoln county. Hundreds ol
men worked all day rebuilding
houses along the stream.
The damage to property will b<
in the neighborhood of ;?200,000
while that sustained in crops ma\
equal or perhaps double tha
amount.
HOW TO FIND OUT,
Fill a bottle or common watei
glass with urine and let it stunt
I twenty-four hours; a sediment01
| settling indicates a diseased con
I dition of the kidneys. When
urine stains linen Jt is positive
evidence of kidney trouble. Toe
I frequent desire to urinate or pai 11
: in the back, is also convincing
: proof that the kidneys and blail
der are out of order.
WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort in the know!
edge so often expressed, that Dr
Kilmer's Swamp Knot, the Lidne)
remedy fulfills every wish in relieving
pain in the back, kidneys
liver, bladder and every part ol
thu urinary passages*. It corrects
inability to tiobl urine and scabl
inp pain in passing it, or bad
eHocts following use of liquor
wine or beor, and overcomes thai
unpleasant necessity of being
compelled to pet up many time*
durjnp the nipht to urinate. '1 lu
mild and the extraordinary ollVel
of Swamp Hoot is soon realized

derful cures of tlie most distressing
cases. If you need a medtcint
