THE WILD WAVES SING A DIRGE OF
DEATH AND DESTRUCTION.
Cifes Surrounded by Water-Terrible
Condition in the Flood Sections.
Property of all Kinds Damaged Beyond
Estimate and Loss of Life
Probable.
Jackson, Miss, April 20?'Ihe Illinois
Central managed to open traffic
with New Orleans tonight over
the Natchez branch of the Yazoo and
Mississippi Yalley road, although
trains are running with great caution
on account of the treacherous condition
of the track. The main line is
still tied up below Magnolia by the
high waters, and the officials do not
expect to get traffic opened before
the early part of next week. A
bridge was washed out at Pearl river
today. The situation in Jackson is
rapidly growing worse, and a good
size section of the southern porti< n
of the city is submerged with the
backwater from Pearl river. Sur
nn (k.Aa Kc vatfip flDfl
iUUUUCU uu IU1VV OIUWD MJ " W.VV*
with the three small streams swollen
beyond their banks, the city is at the
same time confronted with a water
famine. Leaf river has broken from
its banks and is spreading out ever
.the surrounding country, sweeping
away fences and houses, inundating
crops and drowning much live stock
and poultry. Viewed from the wagon
bridge at this point, Pearl liver is
one vast lake stretching six or eight
miles to the east and south. The
Alabama and Vicksbnrg railroad
bridge is tottering on its foundations
tonight and will doubtless be swept
away before morning.
Advices from several States, from
which a general idea of the flood is
gained, indicate that the damage
will reach into the millions, and the
calamity falls especially hard on the
farmers.
Memphis, Tenn., April 20.?A
special to the Commercial-Appeal
from New Orleans says:
The flood which commenced the
early part of the week has already
caused, at a conservative estimate,
folly $2,000,000 loss in central and
southern Mississippi to say nothing
of the damage by the railroads.
The extent of the losses have not yet
been fully realized and it may be
some days yet before an accurate
total can be reached for mail communication
has been totally cut off
bat ween these localities which have
suffered most and the outside world
and telegraph lines suffered greatly
so that the news is just now beginning
to arrive by wire. In Inuhiana,
too, the damage done by the unprecedented
rains was general but in
this State they are more inferential
than positive. A special from Columbia,
Miss, which was received
late tonight fixed the loss in that
little town and its immediate vicinity
at $500,000.
Many farm houses were carried
away by the mad waters, the occupants
barely escaping with their
lives and the number of cattle drowned
was great. A great maDy gins
and mill houses were washed away
and many sawmills saw their lumber
piles melted away as if by magic.
Nearly every bridge around Columbia
was swept down stream. Pearl
river is dow higher than it has been
known for many years. Miles and
miles of tbe New Orleans and Northeastern
track are still uncfer water.
HoDey island, tbe rendezvous of the
noted train robber, Burch, is under
twenty feet of water and the island,
which has for years been one of the
natural game preserve of the south
is dow devoid of wild animals.
Hundreds of deer were drowned and
the hills near the bank9 of the Pearl
\ * river are now the temporary abiding
places of all manner of four footed
life. The log boom9 in the neighborhood
of Pearlington were all carried
away and the los9 sustained in
:nis direction alone amounts to thousands
of dollars. Distressing news
fiom Hickory, Miss., a small town
on this road which is now completely
surrounded by water and inundated
in many localities. Hundreds cf
hogs and cattle near this point were
drowned and miles of fencing have
been washed awav. The latest ad
vices from tbe town of Enterprise
state that the losses there have been
great and much destitution prevails.
Half a score of towns aie completely
cut tff from the outside world as
they have been since the eaily part
cf the week. From Chunkey river
swamps, near Enterprise, comes the
Dews of a heavy loss of life.
Tbe Iilinois Central road is crippled
badly. Tbe Dew Orleans and
North-eastern, and the Yazoo and

also a heavy sufferer.

REUNION OF SPECIAL INTEREST, j
The Palmetto Sharp Shooters and the
Sixteenth Michigan Are to Meet
at Louisville.
The Louisville correspondent of
the News and Courier, in writing of
matters pertaining to the reunion of
the Confederate Veterans next month, |
gives the following relative to a
special meeting between Federals
and Confederates:
While the Confederate Reunion
committees are arranging for the lii
Reunion of all Confederates who will
come to Louisville in May, various
individuals are arranging for minor
reunions of special parlies. Several
blue and grey reunions will be held,
among which is one that is of especial
interest to South Carolinians. It is
the meeting of the Palmetto ShapBhooters
and the 16th Michigan.
These two regiments fought each
other at Gaines's Mill, on June 27,
1862.
The following letter from Col.
James A. Hoyt, addressed to Major
Thomas D. Osborne, chairman of
the printing committee, is self-explanatory:
<kGreenville, S C, April 4,1900.
"Mr. Thomas D. Ooborne, Louisville,
Ky. Dear Sir and Brother: I
am planning for a special reunion of
the Palmetto Sharpshooters and the
16th Michigan regiment, who fought
with each other at Gaines's Mill on
the 27th of June, 1862, and hope
that quite a number of each regiment
will be present. If feasible I
wish to arrange a place of meeting
on an evening that may be agreed
upoD, when we can have the camp
fires lighted again and both sides
can be heard from in amity. Possibly
we might want a banquet or |
something to eat just as starting
point for getting together. The assembly
may be very small, not over
a hundred in any event, I would suppose.
I am in correspoedence with
some officers of the Michigan regiment,
and can let you know hereafter
as to the prospect. I would j
like to have you co operate in mak-1
the neccessary arrangements,
which is a great deal to ask cf you.
But I would presume upon "auld
acquaintance!"
41I ought to say that the two regiments
faced each ether at Gaines's
Mill, apart from the other troops,
and that the Palmetto Sharpshooters
stacked arms in front of the 16ih
Michigan at Appomattox, when they
surrendered in 1865.
Very truly yours,
James A. Hoyt.
Major Osborne will aitend to the
matter for Col. Hoyt at this end, and
he says he will do all he can to make
the reunion of these two regimeDts
pleasant for all who come. Major
O.-borne is a member of the staff of
the Courier-Journal, and he attends
to the advertising part of the big
affair that is to be "pulled off"' in j
May-June. He says that the re- j
union of the Palmetto Sharpshooters ;
aod the 16th Michigan regiment will I
be, perhaps, odc of the most notable |
of th9 minor reunions that are to be I
held.

Made to Feel at Home.
One of the old-time Southern Negroes
went to Boston to make his
fortune. After a week of walking
up and down he found himself penniless,
and no work in sight. Then
he went from bouse to house: "Ef
you please, sub," he begaD, when his
ring at the front door was answered,
"Can't you give a po' cullud man
work ter do, or somepin' ter eatf'
And the polite answer invariably
was, "No, Mister?very sorry, but
have nothing for you."
Every one who answered his ring
addressed him as "Mr.," but shut
their doors and hearts against them.
Finally, he rang the bell at a
brownstone front. A gentleman appeared
and the old man begun:
"Boss, I is starvin'. Can't you
give me some vittles?"
' You darned, black, kioky-beaded
rascal !" exclaimed th8 gentleman.
"How dare you riDg the bell at my
front door ? Go round the backyard
way to the kitchen, and the cook will
give you something?you black"
But just there the old man fell cn

Roundlap Bales Made Cotton Higher.
Wherever The American Cottoo
Company's Roundlap presses were
operated last season higher prices
prevailed for cottou whether baled
round or square. In order to get
cottoD, square bale buyers were
obliged to pay mors than the market
price, and more than cotton was selling
for in neighboring towns where
there was not a Roundlap plant. In
some cases the premium paid by
square box ginners in competition
with Roundlap gins duiing the
greater part of the season was as
much as half a cent per pound above
the price ruling at other old-style
gins id tbe same county. JLhe inevitable
result followed. Cotton (*Dd
the owners' trade with it) was drawn
for long distances to Itoundlap points
to tbe profit of the entire community,
and at the expense of towns
that did not ei j iy the advantages of
round bile competition.
The effect of such object le.ssons
has been a demand for lljundhp
presses for Dext season which will
tax the full capacity of The American

JOHN R. TOLBERT DUMPED.
Removed as Collector of ihe Port of i
Charleston for Dumping Whisky.
Washington, April 18 ?The President
today sent the following Dominations
to the Senate: Frank W.
Hackett of New Hampshire, to be
assistant secretary of the nav;;
Itob< rt M. Wallace, collector cf customs
at Charlestons, S C; First
Lieut. S. D. Sturgiss, Sixth artillery,
to be a captain.
C Hector of Customs John It T-1bert
cf Charleston, whom Mr. Wallace
s icceeds, is removed on the
recommendation of Secretary Gage
to the President.
This action is taken upon the recent,
report of government agents in
which it was shown to the satisfaction
of the Secretary that Tolbert
and other officials and emloyees of
the Charleston customhouse secreted
liquor in the building for illegal purposes.
Wallace, it is said, will dis- j
miss the deputy collector and at least
one janitor and possibly others, who
are alleged to have had a hand in the
storing of the liquor. The clerks
who are presumably innocent of
wroDg doing will not be disturbed.
Mr. Wallace is accredited to Sumter,

SATISFACTI N IN CHARLESTON.
Charleston, April 18 ?News of the
removal by the President of John R.
Tolbert, collector of the port of
Charleston, caused little surprise
here,
April 1st a special agent of the
treasury department, accompanied
by several dispensary constables
searched the custom house for contraband
liquor. 20 empty 10-gallon
casks were Jfound and evidences
showed they had been dumped into
the drain. The case against the collector
was strong aod upon the
report of the Fpecial agent Tolbert
was removed and R. M. Wallace of
Sumter nominated to the position.
Tolbert has never been recognized
except officially by the people here,
being regarded as unfit in every way
for any position of importance or
dignity. His removal will be a distinct
relief to Charleston.
Wallace is a Confederate veteran
and is well thought of here notwithstanding
his strong Republican
sentiments.

their efforts toward bottling the poison

I was afflicted with a terrible blood disease,

These soon broke ou t i n to

couviuced that the

I had spent a hundred
dollars, which was really
thrown away. I then
tried various patent
medicines, but they did
not reach the disease.
When I had finished my
first bottle of S. S. S. I
was greatly improved
and was delighted with
the result. The large red splotches on my

A CYCLONE
Wrecks Buildings at Ross" Quarry in
Lexington.
Columbia Evening Record, April 19.
A small siz'd cyclone struck Ross'
Quarry across the river in LexingtoD
county yesterday afternoon.
It did not completely destroy all
the buildings and machi' er., but very
little was left. It came up with the
suddenness that such winds come
and a heavy rain was falling. Big
derricks were twisted about cs if
they were small affairs and largf
trees were torn up by the roots as if
* Lot? ircro eonlinco. All smoke sf acks
lu> J ? w %. r?o- -
were twisted to pieces and blowD
away and engine and tool houses
were demolished.
The most remarkable feature about
the cyclone was the escape six men
had from death in the office building.
The men bad taken refuge in there
from the rain. As the wind swooped |
down it tore up by the roots a very
lirge tree and burled it upon the
building, smashing it into kindling
wood. Not one of the six was hurt
and it can only be accounted for by
calling it a miracle. They were net
even badly bruised though 'hey were
struck by some of the falling iim
bers. Tho bouse was a small affair
and was lightly built.
The extent of tbe damage the cyclone
may have done elsewhere in
the county before its fury was expended
could not be learned.

The Judge's Affidavit.
Some years ago Justice of the
Peice Beasley, of Missouri, was personally
interested in a lawsuit, beiug
a party thereto. In was necessarj
for him to make au affidavit, and he
deprecated the idea of making it be
fore another justice or notary and
depriving himself of a fee. So he
filled out an affidavit, swore to it before
himself, signed it as justice and
as witness and awaited developments.
He was sure that he would win and
thus be able to tax the costs up to
the otherside.
When the case came up before
Judge Kelly, the affidavit was offered
in evidence and promptly objected
to, the reason being given that a
justice could not swear himself.
"Let me see the affidavit,'' said
Kelly.
It was handed up to the Judge,
who scanned it carefully for a few
moments and then asked:
"Mr. Beasley, will you kindly tell
me how you appeared before yourself
when you swore yourself and identified
your own signaturt ?"'
"That was very easy, your honor,"
said Beasley. "I borrowed a IcGkiog
glass and went through the formalities
before it."
Beasley was somewhat astonished
when Judge Kelly sustained the objection.
The Jew Turned the Joke.
.On the j )urney from Vienna to
St. Petersburg, Cumberland, the
well know anti spiritualist and
thought reader, entertained his fellow
passengers by guessing their thoughts
One of the travellers, a Polish Jew,
who took the whole thing as a hoax,
offered to pay Cumberland the sum
of 50 rubles if he could divine his
thoughts. Visibly amused, Cumberlard
acceded to his request and said:
"You are now going to the fair at
Nijui-Novogorod, where you intend
to purchase goods to the e: t nt cf
20,000 rubles, after which you will
declare yourself a bankrupt and
compound with your creditors for 3
per cent."
On hearing the word*, the Jew
gazed at the speaker with reverential
awe. He then, without uttering
a syllable, drew out of the leg of his
boot, a shabby purse, and handed
him 50 rubles. Whereupon the
great magician triumphantly irquired?"
"Then I have guessed your
thoughts, eh?"
"No," leplied the Jew; "but you
have given me a btiiliant idea."
