Thirty Persons Drowned and Humerow Houses and Bridges Wrecked. Telegram from London, Ontario. A tornado, aooompanied by heavy rains, broks over tho vostorn part of the citv shortly before daylight Tho river was soon beyond its banks The flood swept over tho whole of the lowlands. In less than an hour the entire western suburbs were under water. Large buildings and mills were carried away as though they were straws The population of the suburbs, some 3.0C0 in number, wero driven from their homos in their night-clothes. The villagers were sleeping when toe storm burst upon them, and awoke only to And their dwellings floating away in the stream. Some houses were overturned and their occupants drowned in their beds. One building caught fire while going down stream, and lit up the awful scene, showing some persons running wildly about on the roofs of the floating houses, and others at the windows screaming. Parties went to the rescue of the occupants, but before they reached the building it was overturned and the inmates lost to tight Tho scene was direful in the extreme. Mothers were wailing for lost children, and infants crying for mothers Many of those in the floating houses would have been comparatively secure had they remained In doors Jinny of them in their terror rushed wildly out into the water and were swept away. One frame house floated down with lights burning, and a young lady inside, named Hiss Wright was rescued after a mile run on the crest of the wave, but with her reason lost, The poor girl ha torn her hair and raved piteously all day. A young married woman was rescued with a newborn infant in her arms. A child of Mr. Orr, an elderly lady named Hopkins, and a boy floated over the dam and were ingulfed in toe waters below. Some forty persons ore missing. All the bridges across the river were destroyed, and communication with the west side is cut oft hail wars were also flooded and traffic stopped The loss of life is between thirty and forty. The property loss is estimated at S5,000,OOa Early in the morning lira Oliver, wife of the caretaker at Springbank reservoir, was horrified at seeing a little boy being swept down the current toward the dam, screaming at the top of his voice and waving his arms as he disappeared over the brink. An effort was made to save him, but he was beyond human aid Among the rescued in London West was an old colored man named Scott, who lived alone on Thames street Mr. W. J. Hointoeh endeavored to reach the house in a boat, and. failing to force in the door, drove his boat full tilt through the window, taking the whole sash with him. When he got inside at first he failed to tea any

body till he beard the words: vress delio'd! I was jess prayin' i'o' deLo'd to send His angel to deliber me Mr. Mcintosh found the old man standing on the cook-stove, holding on to the stove-pipe, and the water almost up to his chin, Scott when he appeared on the street had nothing but a shirt, and a coat An infant and an aged widow woman named Oarretty, now in her 70th year, lived alone in a small frame shanty on Thames street The neighbors from adjoining bouseB hod all fled in alarm to high ground She had been warned, but, owing either to infirmity or the surrounding confusion, rhe became paralyzed with fear. Rescuers tried in vain to rouse theo'.d lady by pounding on the door, but to no purpose. At length they burst in a window aud ran in a couple of planks. They found Mrs Garretty kneeling on the bed, holding on to one of the posts, with the water up to her neck. Mrs. Ann Reaves performed a deed that any stout man might have been proud ot When the water rose in her little home she placed one child, a girl, under one arm and another girl under the other arm; a third, a boy, she instructed to sit astraddle on hor neck, and the fourth, another boy, she got to bang on to her dress behind In this state she started for the shore, the water being, as she assured toe reporter, up to her shoulders. "How did you ever manage to get ashore with such a load?" was asked.

"The Lord gave me strength, was the rely. "I was sure of the three youngest, but was afraid of little Jackie, lest he should

let go his hold behind, bat he hung on bravely, although his head was half the time under water."

A youug woman with a history was locked

tip at a Chicago police station the other night She was dressed in men's clothing, and her disguise was the most deceiving the police ever met with. She was arrested on the docks, where she mingled as a sailor without her sex being discovered by even her nearest associate For three years she has acted as cook's mate aboard various lake vessels, always passing for a boy and mingling with the sailors at) one of them. She could give no other name than Frank Chambers, insisting that her real name was too sacred to divulge in a police station. She said she was born in Newark, Ohio, seventeen years ago, and donned male attire the better to get along. There was not one chance in twenty of getting employment as a woman where she coi:M succeed as a man, and, as the latter had the better of it through life, she concluded to dbguise her identity and engage in labor performed by the other sex She liked tho change She liked the sea, and

took, to it to tno manner uorn, xnougn mixing constantly with the very roughest of the sea-faring element few ever discovered her secret She drank with the roujrh sail

ors, but was wise enough not to take too much, and she never became intoxicated She accompanied them in their roistering

tours when In port, but always nad a rcaay exouse to offer when any frolic was proposed that might dlsolope her sex She believed in woman's rights and cmoked and

ehewed with the ease of an old

tan All her movements were musculine and her conversation was plentifully interiayed with expressions characteristic of the sterner sex When proffered a cigar, she lit the match on her trousers, and when it went out, her diBsust was expressed in terms more emphatio then elegant She seemed to be a lad of eighteen, and though her features were regular and pleasing, there was nothing effeminate in her look. Her hair was cnt cloee to the scalpas if by a machine, and she wore a frock coat and black trousers, a cheviot shirt and a nobby derby.

May, you may take your slate and write; and I guess if they are let alone the two babies will take care of themselves. Now, for half an hour, let ns have silence. If anybody speaks let it be in a whisper.'' The fact was that there had been so much noise, and some of it in half-quarrelsome tones, that Mrs. Ford was tired, and took the best way to stop it,

for half an hour at least. The children

were all young, and all wanted their own way," But they had learned to mind their mother. So there was silence in the kitchen,

with her baking, and the occassional prattle of the two babies. Little Hay sat with her slate on her knee, looking thoughtful. She wrote and erased, and wrote again with much

painstaking labor. At last she seemed

satisfied, and going to her mother, said in a whisper : "May I have a little piece of white

paper and pencil out of your drawer? I want to copy something."

"What is it f Aiet me see," said her mother, May hesitated and blushed, but held

it up to her, saying, "You won't tell,

will you, mother?' Her mother read it twice over. Tears

gathered in her eyes.

"xou wont teli anybody, will you?"

entreated little May.

"Ao, no, certainly not. At snail be a

secret between you and me." She got a nice piece of paper, and sharpened the pencil anew for the child, although she was pie-waking.

May copied it very carefully, and laid

it away in the bottom of her handkerchief-box, 'saying :

"1 shall see it often there, and no

body goes there but mother and I."

Hut it happened one day that Harriot

was sent to distribute the pile of clean linen handkerchiefs from the ironing into the different boxes, and, as May's was empty, she saw the writing. It was so short that she took it in at a glance:

Alwavs soek mesent when Ennvbodv

speks i Hat.

Somehow it fixed itself in Hitrriet's

mind, and that evening she wan busy with pen and ink. The resnlt was a writing in Harriet's handkerchiaf-box, with e, resolution written more :aeatly, but to the same effect:

Jlaolvcd. That I will try this year to return

pleasant words tor crocs ones ii .

tiAMKWi t urn It made a difference that was easy to

see when two of tho children began to

practice this resolution. There was less

quarreling.

"That's mine ! xou oetter mm a your

own business!'' said John to Harriet,

one day, when ahe took up a top and was putting it in his drawer.

"Hut, John, mother wants to clear np

the room," said Harriet.

"Well, I want the top to stay there!"

said John, obstinately.

"Well, perhaps it's no matter. A too

isn't much litter," said Harriet, pleasantly.

John was fully prepared lor a contest.

I'm afraid he would rather have relished one. He stared. Then he looked

ashamed,

"What made you say that, Harriet?" Harriet laughed and colored it little. "Tell me what made you," John in

sisted.

"Gome here and I'll show you, said

she.

She took him into the clothes-press, where was a row of handkerchief-boxes,

each labeled.

She opened little May's and took out the clean, soft pile of handkerchiefs. "Look there!" said she. John read. "The good little thing! She never does quarrel, anyhow," said John. Maggie Darnley's Experiments. "Thero!" said little Margaret Darnley in despair, as she stood, broom in hand., at the north door. Tho dust, and bits of paper, and string, and clippings of cloth which she had been collecting from all over the room with her broom, kept drifting back persistently when she tried to sweep them out of the door. "Why don't you try the other door, Maggie?" asked her brother Jack, who sat by the window, "That is just the queer part of it," said Margaret. "I tried the other door first and it is just as bad there. The wind can't blow in exactly opposite directions at once, can it?" "May be it shifted while you were sweeping the dirt across the room, "said Jack. "Well, that would be funnj," soid Margaret; "but I'll try it again. It will be a sort of nixperiment, I gueta." "A sort of what?" asked Jack. "A nixperiment," said Margaret. "I listened to you flosophy-teacher the other day, and Mr. Baird said that everything in science had to be something bv nixperiments. "Verified by experiments," said Jock, laughing. "Yes, that's so, aad now we'll see if there's any philosophy about this dirt." So Margaret swept the dirt carefully across the room again, while Jack looked on. "There!" exclaimed Margaret, "look at that!" Jack did look, and had to confess that it was too muoh for his philosophy. "Stop," said he, "I'll see which way the wind is really blowing. " Margaret shut the door and sat down to wait. The poor little arms were quite tired by this time, for Margaret was only 10 years old. "It's the stillest day we've had this season," cried Jack, bursting in. "The weather-cock turns tail to the south, so whatever, wind there is comes from the noi tb. Let's trjr the south door again, " To the surprise of both Jack and Margaret, the dirt, which had been so perversa and contrary, wont, out this time without makinunuch trdnble. ' "That's itthe Rud shifted, don't you see, Maggie?" a4d Jaok, with a 'is' -' .

wise look. "That's the way with soioneo. Science believes nothing till it bos thoroughly proved it. That's what experiments are for, and that's the beauty of science." "Open the dr. ft, Jack, and put in some more -wood, What makes this room so cold?" called their father from ft small adjoining room, which he used as a study. "What's that you were saying about science?" he added, with a quizzical look. Jack, with a very grave and soientifio look, explained thoir experiment in natural philosophy, "Ah!" said his father, "the wind shifted, did it? How many times?" "Why, four times, father," said Margaret. "Just as quick as lightning almost," she added, seeing her father raise his eyebrows. "I swept the dust from one door to the other just as quick as I could, but by theime I got there the wind got thore too, and blew the dirt back every time." "Suppose we try the experiment again," said Mr. Darnley. "Oh, I've swept all the dirt out now," said Margaret. "Well here aro a few leathers which gave you the slip, little Penrlie," said htsr father. "We can try the experiment with them. Put in some more wood and make the room pretty hot." "What for, father?" asked Jack. "It is necessary to our experiment."

mysterious and interesting. "Now, Maggie," said her father, when tho room was comfortably warm, "sweep out these feathers." "Which door, father?" asked Margaret. "It makes no difference," said her father. "Shall I look at (he weather-vane?" said Jack. "It is not necessary," said his father, smiling. Margaret tried again, but the feathers all blew back, some entirely across the room. "There they aro, Moggie, close to the south door," said Mr. Darnley. "I'll shut this door, and you may sweep them out at that one." But Margaret hod no better suooess than before. "Isn't it curious !" said Jack. "There must be witches at the door, blowing the feathers back." "That is what ignorant and superstitious people would have said years ago, Jack," said his father, "but science shall teach us better than that." "Now," continued Mr, Darnley, "let us make two piles of the feathers one near the south and the other near the north door. Jack, get another broom for this pile. Now, both sweep in opposite directions at the same time. That will show us whether it is caused by the shifting of the wind." Jack and Maggie tried faithfully, but the feathera went every way but out of the doors, some of them even rising toward the ceiling. "It's the cold day," said Jaok; "they don't like to go out." "Father, what is the reason, please?" asked Margaret, earnestly. "Hot air always rises," replied Mr. Darnley. "Why?" asked Margaret "Because," answered her father, "hot air is lighter than cold. When it rises, of course cold air rushes in to fill its place. When you open the door, currents of cold air rush in at the bottom, while the hot air is escaping at the top. Open the door, Jock, and try to drive out a feather above your head, while Maggie tries one at the floor." The children did so. and, while the feather at the bottom blew in, the one at the top floated out "But, father," said Maggie, "we did sweep tho dirt out at last Why was that?" "Because you had let the room grow cold while you were trying your experiments," said her father, "and as the temperature became more like that outside, the currents were less strong. That is the way your 'wind shifted." Jock looked foolish. "Science is a fine thing, my son," continued his father, "and great beauty and interest as well as importance, attach io its discoveries. But the life and soul of science lie in its exactness aud thoroughness, A scientific experiment, to be worth anything, must be thorough. You tried an experiment half-way, and then jumped to a conclusion." "Mother," said Margaret, "how do you sweep the dirt out?" "I take it up on the dust-pan, Maggie, dear," said her mother, smiling.

Didn't Like the Governor. "So you dont like the present Governor of Arkansaw?" said a State officer, addressing an old man who had expressed dissatisfaction concerning the Executive Department of the State. "No, sir, I must confess I don't Ain't the kind of Governor we had in my day. Why, sir, in my time, a Governor was the boss. None of your set-around-aud-tolk-business about him. When thar want any very pressin' work in the office he'd go out and fight" "Fight!" "Yes, fight It was his duly to entertain his constituents in them days. One day, long time ago, a feller come up from New Orleans to whip the Governor. He had cleaned up everything in Louisiana, an', hearin' that the Governor, of Arkansaw was su'thin of a man, he came up here. He stopped at the tavern an' got me to go up an' tell the Squire-i-or the Governor. We used to call 'em Squires in them days. Well, the Squire was putty busy when I went in, flxin' up the papers to hang his wife's cousin, but when I give him the information he throwed down the papers and came right out of the Executive nest When, we got up to the tavern the big feller was eatia' a watermillion. The Governor went up and helped himself to the thing. " ' "Peer to be putty fond of watermillion,' 'lowed the big man. " 'A little the sharpest appetite for it of any man you ever seed,' 'lowed the Governor. " ' Who are you?' asked the man. "'The Governor, an' I understan' you wanter see me.' " ' Yas, reather, ho said, Bhuttin' up his knifo with a snap. " 'Business, I reckon?' " Yes,' said the man, common oin' to take off his coat " ' Let her stay ef you want to take her with you,' the Governor said, an' spit on his hands an' went at it They font fur about five minits, and the big feller 'gunter look toward New Orleans with a mighty hankerin' to get away, but the Governor kept' puttin' it onto him till at lost he flew down the street. The Governor followed him and ohurned him till he flung up all'er that watermitlion. " ' Peers that watermillion dont agree with your stomiok,' said the Governor. " ' Not at this season of the year,' the fellow said, scratohin' to get away. Finally the Governor turned him loose an' tole him that if durin' his travels he found a man anywhar to send him around.

A DUEL DECLARED OFF. How President Taylor Interfered to Prevent a Fight Between Davis and BisseU. Washington Letter in Providence Press. When Gej. Zachory Taylor was President, his son-in lay, Jefferson Davis, of Mississippi, afterwards a President himself, was in the Senate. At one particular time under this administration Col. Bissell, afterward Governor of Illinois, who had headed an Illinois regiment in the Mexican war, was in the House of Representatives. One of Bissell's enemies took occasion to remark, in debate in the House one day, that in a certain battle on Mexican soil Bissell's cowardice nearly lost the day to the American arms. "Nothing," he declared, "but the skill and bravery of Col. Jefferson Davis, of Mississippi, and his brave regiment prevented a disgraceful rout " Biaaoll jumped up promptly, and angrily denounced this statement as false. In fact, he said the cose was just the other way Col. Davis' cowardice nearly lost the day. Col. Davis' regiment lost its heart; Col. Bissell's bravery and ability saved the day. His regiment was only less bravo and skillful than himst'lf. It does not appear that the representative to whom Col. Bissell gave the lie cared to take it up. But Senator Jefferson Davis immediately sent Col. Bissell a polite note inviting him to retract or fight. The Colonel replied that he prefeared to fight, and, after the bloodthirsty manner of those days, named muskets, slugs, and five paces as the terms. He expressly requested that the place and the hour be so arrangod that the police could not possibly interfere. Senator Davis agreed with his antagonist as to the conditions, and the seconds were instructed accordingly. Col. Bissell was on the ground at the early morning hour named ; so were his second and his surgeon. But Senator Davis did not appear. After waiting several hours CoL Bissell returned to the city and went to his rooms. There he found the President's private secretary with an invitation to

come at onco to the White House. Of course he went, and, as he had expected, found his challenger in the library with President Taylor. The latter said to CoL Bissell that, thinking it a pity that two such men should make war upon one another, he had

himself arrested Senator Davis, and

had sent his private secretary to arrest

Uoi. isissell. JNow that be had them, he proposed to keep them, at least until after lunch, and, as they were his guests, they must also be friends, so they shook hands with more or less cordiality, and declared the duel off. The Death of Robin Hoed.

All accounts affirm that Robin Hood

lived to a very old age, and at la."t died

by treachery. He had a cousin, who

was the pioress of a nunnery called

lYinriees, and wnen ne was aged and

infirm, and suffering from an attack of

disease, he went to her to be bled,

Robin was very sick when he reached the gate of the nunnery, where he was met by his cousin. Little thinking of

treachery, he suffered her to conduct him to a room and open a vein in his arm. There he was left bleeding. The door of the room wai locked, and the window was too high above ground to admit of jumping out He remained in this state until the next day at noon,

when he thought to blow a blast on his horn. ItVos a quavering and feeble sound. Little John was lingering

about, wuitmp; to see his beloved master.

When he heard the mornful blast he

sprang up and hurried to the nunnery. He broke locks and dashed open doors until he reached the room where Bobin lay dying. He fell on his knees and bcRged to be allowed to burn Kirklees

Hall and all the nunnery; but Bobin said: "No, I never hurt a woman in my life, nor a man in company with a woman, and I will not allow such a thig to be done now. But string my bow for me, and give me it and a broad arrow, which I will shoot from

the window, and where that arrow falls

there let my grave be dug. Aiay a green sod under my head cud another at my feet; and lay my bent bow by my side, for it has always made sweet

music for me." . This request was complied with by Little John. The arrow that Bobin shot fell under a tree, and there the bold chief was buried. His death was probably near the year 1300. Some worthy historians have doubted whether such a man as Robin Hood ever lived, and have classed the stories of his exploits among the myths of the past It is hardly probable, however, that this is the correct theory. The safer and more reasonable conclusion would seem to be that Robin Hood really reigned in the forests as represented, but that many of the stories about him have been exaggerated by the ballad singers and early writers in England. Maurice Thompson, in St Nicholas. The King of Asps. A new snake, called the eohis oarinata, which is the first specimen of its race seen in England, and of which we have no specimen here, is attracting crowds to the Regent's Park, London. It is about a foot and a half long, and the color is dingy gray. It is the deadliest of created things, for it carries in its tiny head the secret of destroying life with the sudden rapidity of lightning and the concentrated agony of all poisons. This king of the asps is more dangerous than the cobra or the horait, for it does not turn and run like the one,, or flash into concealment like the other, but with fearless pluck gives fight, and pitob.es its eighteen inches of length against any comer. A stroke of a stiok will break it in two, or a stone will smash it, but such is its venomous malignitythat .it will challenge attack by every device in its power, staking its own life on the mere chance of its adversary coming within the little circle of its roach. The radius of that circle is twelve inches, but within it at any point lies certain death, and in the bare hope of hand or foot trespassing within its reaoh the echis throws its bodv into a flgnre-of-oight coil, and, attracting ittenfc'on by rubbing its loops together, which, from the roughness of the scales (hence the epithet carinata), makes a rustling souml, erects its head in the center and awaits attack. No one having once encountered this terrible little creature can ever forget its truculent aspect M'hon aroused; its eagerly aggressive air; its restless coils, which, in constant motion one over another and rustling ominously all tho time, bring it nearer and nearer to tho object of its fury; its cyo, malignant eveu boyond those of other vipers,, aud then the inconceivable rapidity of its stroke. The echis docs not wait to strike until it is within striking distance, but vents its malice iu repeatedly darting at nothing, hopifig to aggravate its antagonist into coming to closer

auarters. or more probably as

expression of its own ii
