FLOOD IN THE OHIO.
v, The
Worst Is Over at Pittsburg
t{ and Vicinity.
FARTHER DOWN THEY'LL SUFFER
The Cofferdam of the New Government l)am list llelnw Van port Swept Away. Railroads Suffering Considerably—Very
Uneasy at Wheeling Orer the Outlook. Considerable Damage KUewhere. PITTSBURG,
Jan. 8.—The latest news
is encouraging and indicates that the flood has done its worst as far as Pittsburg and points above ou both rivers are concerned. What further damage may be done will be below.
The Monougahela came out with a rush yesterday and with the breaking of the ice in the upper pools, the damage to boats begun. Immense coal fleets wore threatened with total destruction.
The Allegheny is also full of ice and is running like a torrent. A great amount of wreckage is coming down, indicating damage at points above.
There was intense excitement aloug the Monougahela wharf all day. All boats in the harbor had stoam up and were doing all tliey could to keep out of thej/Way of the rapidly rising water. -The channel was full of ice and snow and the current was very swift.
There were several million bushels of coal on flats in the harbor here, and every effort was put forth to keep the fleets from being wrecked. Several coal barges, a houseboat and a swinging ferryboat broke from tlieir moorings and went down with the current.
The residents of Etna and Sharpsburg, suburbs on the Allegheny, are 4 alarmed over the prospects of a big flood. The low ground in both towns is submerged and the water rising.
The railroads, both east and west, are being troubled by the high water, although as jet no serious damage has been done on any of the lines.
Forecaster Stewart of the local signal service station does not think the stajre in the Allegheny river will exceed 25 feet. He says that the only danger now from a flood is to be apprehended from the Monougahela river.
At 10 p. m. the Monougahela registered 23 feet and was rising very slowly. The best river authorities agree in placing the highest stage at 2(3 feet. Advices from all of the up-river points showed that the water was either receding or about stationary.
The heaviest individual loss so far reported was that at McKeesport, where 50 coal barges were carried from the docks and down the river, entailing a loss of between £.jo,00(J and $40,000. -.a Beaver, Pa., reported last night that the coiierdam at the new govern- I ment dam just below Vanport had been swept away, with considerable money damage, and the loss of one life.
Kow that the danger here seems to be averted, coalmen are making preparatious t& get a large quantity of coal to southern ports as soon as the ice has thinned suilicier.tly, svhich will probably be about Thursday.
I'luvisiuus.-i lit, Wheeling.
WHEEUNH, Jan. S.—Considerable uneasiness is felt here regarding the rise in the Ohio river. The rise l'rom the headwater was not feit here until 3 p. in., yesterday, when the water commenced creeping up the marks at a rate I of live inches an hour. This rate was maintained until about 3 in the evening I when a foot per hour was recorded, This continued up to midnight, and at that time was expected to keep up all night. At midnight the stage was liJ feet 4 inches. From 25 to 30 feet is expected here by tonight. Forty feet will inflict some damage to property in the lower portions of the town, as well as enter a number of houses on Wheeling island.
The steamer R. E. Phillips was caught in the ice and sunk at New Matamoras, O., Sunday night. She will be a total loss. She was valued at $10,000.
On the Cleveland, Lorain and Wheeling railroad one bridge was washed away at Bruce and one at Wheeling creek.
Tlio Youghioglieny.
UNIONTOWN,
Pa., Jan. 8.—The flood
is sweeping things along the Youghioglieny river at a lively rate tonight. At 9 o'clock last night there was a stage of 17 feet at Connellsville and 17 feet 6 inches at Dawson, live miles below, and it was rising at the rate of a foot in four hours. This is the highest the river has been since the flood of August, 1&8!), and with this exception surpasses all oho floods since 1800. Yowlerville, a suburb of New Haven, is submerged two-thirds of the citizens have already moved out and if the water rises much higher, their homes will be swept away.
Reports from Dawson, Niekersous Run, Bannings and other towns down the river state that they are now at the nxercy of the waters and great damage is being done. The Slipe mines along the river are flooded and work has been suspended. It will require at least several weeks to get the water pumped out r: of them.
At Cincinnati.
CINCINNATI,
Jan. 8.—Tho Ohio river
has been rising rapidly since Sunday afternoon, and thtre is .serious apprehension of another great flood. The rise started Sunday night and at 3 p. m. yesterday was feet inches—a rise of 14 feet 6 inches.

".K- McKEKSfouT, Pa., Jan. 8.—At midnight the water was up on Market street to Third avenue and all the fami-
!los along Watar street have moved out. Water was in the W. Dewes Wood company's mill and part of the mill shut down. The damage to the plant so far will r«ach $10,000. The Howard plateglass works at Duquesne had to shut down last night, and the Carnegie steel works are partly knocked out by the flood. The water was four feet deep on Main street of Dravosburg. Loss in McKeesport will reach $40,000.

FILLED THE WELL WITH SNOW.
He Then .Jumped in to Tramp It Down. ltescued Half Frozen. LAWKKNCEBUKG,
Ind., Jan. 8.—A
farmer living at Manchester, in this county, thought he would supply lus empty well with water by filling it up with snow. He accordingly shoveled it full to the top, and then another valuable thought suggested packing it down to make room for more. His feet were the handiest instruments at hand, so lie just jumped on top of it with all his might, and, of course, went to the bottom through the snow. His wife, who was luckily near, exhausted her strength in trying to rescue him with a ropo, and when she failed, tied it to a rail slung across the well. He tried to ascend by it, but when half way up, the numbness in his hands made him go back again. His situation now became alarming, and two neighbors were called, by whose assistance he was rescued—half smothered and frozen.

A FALSE PROPHECY.
Awakening from a state of lethargy. Cointe Raymond de Villemere beheld his doctor gazing on him sadly. "Saved once more!" breathed the com to, and he smiled as he stretched out his arms. "My poor friend," sighed the doctor.
The sick man stared aghast. "Pull yourself together," ho continued. "You are a man who can stand the truth." "What do you mean?" "Your .symptoms aro those of the noua." "Of what?" "A curious plague. When tho state of lethargy is over, the patient has three lucid hours, at tho end of which ho dies suddenly." "Whew!" "Now, look here, keep your spirits up, liko tho plucky fellow you are! After all is said and done life is not worth living for. Good by—good by, my poor friend—goodby."
Ten minutes later the comte had risen. Clad in his flannel smoking jacket, he was putting tho hist touches to his toilet. Tho doctor had withdrawn that his friend might havo time to settle his worldly affairs.
When he had done brushing his mustacho and smoothing his finger nails, Raymond chose one of his driest cigars and lit it, while casting a sorrowful look at the others, those which he was not to smoke. Then he threw himself on his divan and began to reflect.
However brave he might be, however fearless of death, Comte do Villemere soon came to the conclusion that his case was a peculiarly aggravating one.
Tho day before, so soon as ho was taken with fever—ho had made up his mind to prepare for the worst—he had sent for his lawyer, and for a priest, and destroyed all his letters. Then he had laid down his giddy head and fallen asleep with tho conviction that I10 would not awako again before doomsday.
But now he was liko a condemned man, who, after having made suro of a reprieve, found himself suddenly 011 tho way to tho scaffold.
Outsido the cheery atmosphere of a bright Juuo day tho Champs Elysees wero alivo with a continuing stream 01 smart carriages. Everything spoke of happiness and health. Ho himself had never felt so .fit, and ho was asked to believe that tomorrow there would bo nothing left of all this—so far as lie was concerned—but a mournful crowd of friends, a trip in a slow jolting hearse and tho mumbling of a priest before an open grave.
Tomorrow tho joys and friendly ties of his whole life would be gone forever. While ho was finishing his cigar, reclining listlessly 011 the cushions of his divan, Raymond saw all his lifo flit past him as in a dream. Nearly forgotten episodes of his childhood cropped up as if they were quite recent. Then in rapid succession his mind dwelt 011 tho many times he had fallen in love between 15 and 25 until he camo to the first month of his married life.
How full of unmitigated joy those days had been! Raymond remembered tho minutest events of his honeymoon or moons spent in fun and frolic, with pleasant excursions, verging on bachelor's dissipation and freaks which mado lively gossip for fashionable folk. Delighted beyond measure by the admiration which, his wife excited wherever he took her, I10 was more madly in lovo after his marriage than before. Ho would have been jealous if the mere possibility of such a thing could have been seriously entertained by either of tlieni. And all this passionate love had been brought to an end by a scandalous separation owing to a blunder 011 his part and a rash escapade of tho little cointesse.
By mutual consent they had separated. Yet, strange to say, their love for each other had continued. So far as the world was concerned, their relations were restricted to icy bows whenever they met 011 the boulevards, but their professed indifference for each other scarcely doceived their common friends.
Tho ider of dying without having seen onco more the woman he loved above all others appeared preposterous to the comte. Studied obstinacy and stern resolvo seemed to bo altogether out of place when brought face to face with everlasting separation.
What risk did he run now in attempting a reconciliation even if it wero not to succeed?
Raymond sprang to his feet, and seating himself bofore his writing desk scribbled hurriedly a short tolegram and sent it off by his valet.
He looked at his watch. He had two hours moro to live. Tho comtesse would havo tirno to come.
Would sho come? Would she be touched by a note containing a dying man's farewell? Or, in tho relentless dignity of offended woman, would sho' refuso to forgivo even under theso solemn circumstances?
The anguish of uncertainty, addod to tho moral torture, made Raymond wince despite all his nerve and resolution to take his inevitable fate coolly. With somothing very like terror ho eyed tho fleeting minutes which separated him from eternity.
Another hour flow away while he was getting ready to die, stopping now and then to muse with melancholy on his
"i
past life. He wrote to his mother a very long letter, full of reminiscences of his early life, and as he did so tears came to his eyes.
Suddenly Raymond started at the sound of the electric bell. After a few seconds of wild expectation the door was opened and tho servant ushered in— la Cointesse de Villemere!" »He rose from his seat very pale. "Odette!" he exclaimed.
But tho young woman remained standing on the threshold, her features contracted with anger. "This is a most shamoless trick, sir. »'.@"A trick! What do you mean?" "You wrote me word that you are dying, and I find you up and well, writing your lotters. Goodby, sir." "Odette! Do let mo explain. One word only." And as she was leaving the comto snatched up from his desk the letter ho was writing to his mother and held it out to her. "Read this before leaving," ho gasped.
Sho took tho letter, glanced at the first few lines and then fell on Raymond's neck, sobbing. "Poor boy! It was tho truth." 'For a few minutes they remained clasped in each other's arms, full of passion and pain, giving 11111 to expression to tho memory of the happy montii3 they had spent together and to remorse for the year of happiness they had lost by their separation.
They sat down closo to one another, hand in hand, completely overcome by their feelings.
Sf
I
At last the comte bethought himself of his forefathers, one of whom had climbed the steps of tho scaffold in 1793 whistling a tune from tho "Indes Galanter." "Well, never mind," said he, with a smile. ''Isupposol ought not to complain. I am dying of a complaint which will bo fashionable tomorrow.
But Odette looked at him reproachfully, and ho did not continue. Women have 110 tiisto for irony.
They chatted about old times, at first almost in a whisper, as if they wero in a room where death had stricken down a'fellow creature. Then by degrees the remembrance of better days brought to mind a little incident which made their lips smile, while their eyes caught sight on tho wall of some object recalling particulars of tho lifo they had led formerly, such as tho pictures of a chase, which evoked tho sounds of the huntsman's horn as it rent in glowing gladness tho November mist, and they dwelt with plcasuro 011 the day when they had cantered side by side, rustling the brown leaves which covered tho forest path.
Miniature fans, dusty accessories of charming cotillons, reminded them of a Gorman waltz which they had danced before their marriage and how they had flirted the same evening under the palm trees of tho hothouse.
Thej* lived over again their rides in the Bois do Boulogne under the green, shady boughs when they were like two boys out for a spree, breakfasting at the Pavilion Chinois and coming back through the Champs Elysees to take their part in the exuberant life of tho gay city. They would part for a few hours yearning to meet again—after being bored at tho club and at 5 o'clock tea—in their box at the opera or in the tete-a-tete of their home.
Raymond and Odette were so absorbed by these old souvenirs that they became oblivious of time aud of tho terriblo circumstance which had brought them together again.
Tho bell rang. They awoke to painful reality and exchanged a_ horrible look of anguish. "Dr. Darlois!" announced the valet. "Why, yon do not mean to say you are out of bed?" said tho medical man, with an amazed countenance. "I was coming to"— "lou wero coming?" "Well, I don't see why I should not ten tho truth now that, thank God, I was mistaken. I was coming to make quito suro you wore tlead. "Much obliged," smiled tho comte. "Then he is out of danger?" inquired Odette anxiously. lliere is 110 question about it. But it is certainly very odd, for the Echo des Cliniques published yesterday an exhaustive description of the nona. Nevertheless pray be assured that I am very happy"—
Unquestionably tho doctor was very happy. At the same timo if he had told tho whole truth he would have admitted that he was rather vexed at having been such a bad prophet. "Odette," suggested Raymond in a whisper, "do not you think you might ask him to dinner with us in the evening?"—From tho French in Strand Magazine.
Cool.
A great deal of public mirth and occasional reprobation has followed Mine. Patti in her capacity of business woman. Tho coolness with which she has always demanded the largest possible prico has become as well known as her lovely voice. Moreover, a retort by her has become historic.
When sho was told that even the president of the United States did not receive nearly as much for his sorvices as she demanded for hers, she answered, "Very well, get tho president of the United States to sing for you!"
Other musicians have shown a thrifty desire to feather their nests. VVhen Paganini was asked, years ago, to play at Vauxhall Gardens, I10 inquired how many pooplo tho place would hold. "How many?" said the manager. "That is almost impossible to say. It's a large open space.'' "Well," said tho violinist, "how many will tho largest space contain when quito full?" "Perhaps 20,000." 'Ah, 20,000 pooplo! Aud you ask how much?" "Four shillings each "Four shillings oachl Twenty thousand four shillings mako 80,000. Eighty thousand shillings, £4,000 pounds. Well, I will play at one concert for £3,000 pounds, and yon may have the other thousand!"—Youth's Companion.
