LOGANSPORT SWAMPED ' BY A TERRIFIC STORM I DAMAGE IS HEAVY

: LOOANSPORT. Ind., July 3. A

ciouaDurst aeiugea lyjgansport ana us immediate environs early Friday morn tag spreading debris and waste in its wake. The storm broke about 4 o'clock. Residents of the city arose to find their homes surrounded by water and their cellars flooded. Train Eervlce was demoralized all day. All 'three trunk lines running through this city reported washouts of more or less serious nature. Only' the presence of mind and quick 'action of George Stetson saved a Berlous wreck on the Wabash. He dis covered the washout on the Wabash on his way to work. He ran to the station a mile and a half and gave the warning. The conductor of the "freight was given the signal just as the rear of his train was passing through Clymers, two mile,on the other side of the washout.Forces of men were kept -busy all day making the repairs. A partial train schedule was maintained in the afternoon. Hospital Furnaces Flooded. The furnace pits, of the Northern Indiana Hospital for the Insane were submerged and the fires put out, throwing the entire institution into a state of chaos.v No heat, light, water or power for any purpose was available. Pumping engines were rushed from this city to the Institution and the water drawn from the pits. Mrs. Marie Farrer sustained a broken leg when she stepped into a r rater eaten into the earth by the torrent and fell headlong down the railway embankment. River Rises Rapidly. Parks and playgrounds have been under, water all day. The Eel River rose 10 feet in less than an hour and fell almost as rapidly. The rise of the Wabash was not so pronounced. The oldest inhabitants can not recall such a downpour of rain. Wheat, just ready to cut, was driven to earth by the rain. Corn and oats were also blown down. Roadways over the country are crossed and recrossed by washouts. The loss and damages will mount into the thousands of dollars. Telephone service was crippled by the electrical storm which preceded the rain. Trees blown down by the wind demolished electric light lines, throwing portions of the city into darkness.

WASHINGTON Ghosts of the living deadl , Such is the reference made to a number of the characters appearing in the forthcoming Douglas FairbanksUnited Artists' production, "The Mollycoddle," which will be shown at the Washington Theatre beginning Sunday. The "living dead" are members of the Hopi Indian tribe who are prominent in several episodes of the third Fairbanks picture for the "Big Four," who since the filming of the scenes have passed on to the happy hunting grounds. Not alone was it the first time that such a dance had ever been held other than during the proper fiesta celebration but it was also the first time that any member of the Hopi tribe had ever been photographed. In order to secure the permission to film the Indians it was necessary to provide them with numerous delicacies in the food line which they could not procure and a promise was also made that they would be given the opportunity of viewing their work by way of the silver sheet. As Indian figures in fantastic dances began to zig-zag and wig-wag before their astonished eyes, two aged Redskins jumped to their feet and shout

ing in their native tongue disappeared In the dark with considerable rapidity. Others followed and it looked like the show was going to break up and with serious results. The lights were turned on and the

uproar ceased. Investigation then re-

realed the fact that several of the chiefs and some of the members of the tribe had died since the picture was taken and that the fellow-tribesmen believed that the likenesses on the screen were ghosts. MURRAY. The conduct of a man who had only five days to live is the thrilling theme utilized in "Twins of Suffering Creek," a new William Fox photodrama starring William Russell, which is cominsr to the Murray theatre on

In dramatic power anything in which William Russell 6aa heretofore appeared, and the popular Fox star has already won wide recognition for his work in stories of punch and action. The author is Rldgwell Cullum. the well known writer of western stories, whose novels, "The Way of . the Strong," "Trail of the Axe," "The Nightriders," and The Golden Woman" are in the front rank among the best sellers. :Ctlfl The names, of Louise Lovely, E. A. Warren, Bill Ryno, Henry J. Herbert and Joe Ray in the cast promises much for the success of the picture. The director is Scott Dunlap. MURRETTE That popular idol of the screen, William Farnum, is coming to the Murrette theatre next Sunday in his latest William Fox production, "The Orphan," a stirring story of the West, written by Clarence E. Mulford.

In "The Orphan" Mr. Farnum is cast as an outlaw hated and feared more violently by the cowpunchers than anyone known to the little town of Ford's Station. It is said that Mr. Farnum puts tremendous dash, vigor and fire into this powerful story ot

the days of bandits and Indians and stagecoacn holdups. Mr. Farnum appears as the Orphan, a victim of misfortune and circumstance, who has been accused of committing numerous crimes, the worst ot which were not of his doing. How he gains the friendship of the Sheriff and subsequently mokes a new start In life after winning the love of a

beautiful girl, is told in the development of a plot which. U, is declared, never has been surpassed by any in which Farnum has figured on the screen. MURRAY VAUDEVILLE The following is a synopsis of "Ginger Snaps." the headline act which is booked to play the Murray, opening Monday matinee for the first half of the week:
