SOUTH ERN MEN BATTLE WITH THE DESTROYING MISSISSIPPI V FLOODS MENACING- AWFUL DISASTER i Almost Continuous Line of Heroic Men Fighting Waters From Carothers ville to the Gulf. i r A' NEW ORLEANS. La. March 14. The deluge has Inundated Dixie Land. The South la la anna today fighting heroically, helplessly, tnJfhe day a From Caruthersrllle, Mo., to the Eada Jetties, a distance of 1.015 miles. " the aoldlera of the South are on aentry. A wall Of men. Spartana all, patrol the battlements of the Mississippi, watching, waiting fearing. There Is no claaa distinction in this battle against the river. Cavaliers from the plantations work arm In arm with convicts from the pestilent prisons of Louisiana. They are opposing the might of the Mississippi; battling the watershed of the United States. For 17 days pitiless rains have pelted the Louisiana Purchase States. A cattle trail In the Dakota became a rivulet A depression in Minnesota was transformed into a lake. Dry branches in Iowa became creeks, creeks in Illi nois swelled to rivers. Each and all poured their plethora of turbid waters Into the Mississippi the sewer of America. The river scaled the water gauge bound by bound. Then the snow deserted the mountains, precipitating Itself on the South. The tawny Missouri hurled a block of water one half mile long. 80 feet deep. Into the Mississippi every time the clock ticked. The Mississippi boomed. At St. Louis the gauge stands at l.t feet today. The South, sitting under the shelter of the 40 and 60 foot levees, felt no danger two weeka ago. The flood from the North' was only the usual spring freshet. The rains came South. The valley of the Cumberland River became a gi gantic spigot, emptying a relentless torrent into the flooded Mississippi. The Tennessee River added lta volume and then the Ohio, a rain spout for the mountains of West Virginia, the fields of Ohio and the blue grass steppes of Kentucky, burled tons upon tons of water into the swollen Mississippi. Dixie marshaled her bo as to conquer the flood. It is a tight to the deatli. If the levees break these men die. Their wives, their children and their fortunes will all be swept in the maw of the Mississippi. The South has silently fought the flood for 1J days and nights. Newspaper correspondents, loyal to the land of their birth, belittled the danger. They came dripping from the Levees saying "The danger is over." The boom of crumbling banks, and the crash of levees reached their ears as they wrote. - la the Terrible Shadow of the Mississippi River. New Orleans lies under the terrible shadow of the Mississippi. The Dam ocletlan sword Is forever threatening. The bed of the river is higher than the streets of the town. Levees 60 feet high. 100 feet wide, confine the river. If they break the Galveston calamity will have a parallel. The levees are breaking. Algiers, aoross the river, Is flooded. AU the houses In front or the new levee are abandoned. Water is a foot deep in one house, built on stilts, 20 feet above the ground. S, " VICKSBUKQ. Miss.. March 14. Armed men are girling the levees, prepared to treat in summary fashion any one who attempts to cut the barrier. The flood situation here is so acute t.iat a shotgun patrol was established today covering a distance of 240 miles along the Northern Louisiana levee. The pa trol was ordered because of rumors that the people in the lowlands, opposite Red River, had threatened to cut the levees to relieve the situation. MEMPHIS. March 14. The Mississippi Is rising moral rapidly than at any time since the flood became Imminent. In the northern portion of the city a number of the streets are now under water to such a depth that boats have to be used in crossing them. Refugees are pouring in rapidly. Many of them were in a starving condi tion when the rescue steamers picked them up. The situation is grave. And al ways there is the danger, almost a certainty, of levee breaks that will mean ruin and death beyond anything that has been chronicled from the South In many years. The river at Memphis is a sea. Far as the eye can reach, one sees the swirling, turbid tide. Trees at Hopefleld, Ark., look like shrubs. Men work ing frantically in the jevees here seemplgmies. Memphis is pessimistic. The flood of water still continues and every weather indication is favor able for further augmentation by rains. The chart issued yesterday .morning by the local bureau brought no cheering news. High temperature prevails In ail sections tributary to the Mississippi and its feeders, and precipitation, while not heavy, was general Wednesday. At St. Louis and Memphis the largest figures were recorded, in each case being over an inch. Yesterday rain was still falling at St. Louis and Cairo, and .the Mississippi at the former city was raising rapiuiy. The people at Memphis declare that the levee will hold. Their faces are taut with teajr while they boast, and every time they glance at the great gaulit mud wails which guard their homes they look as they expected the foe to topple them. Mississippi outlined the situation in one pregnant sentence: "The people of Memphis are sitting at their Belshazzarlan feast. The en emy is hammering at their walls."

They will, he declares, be soon reunited and will remove to America, Electrocuted In midair J. Bartholomew remained suspended between Heaven and earth until his comrades climbed the pole to which ho had been clinging when the lethal current did its deadly work. and lowered his lifeless body to the ground. . The accident occurred at 9:S0 o'clock this morning. Just opposite the volun teer fire station at Seiiwood. a party of linemen in the employ of the Portland General Electric Company, fellow work ers of Bartholomew, witnessing ine tragedy. Fully .aware that death would result. to all apsearances Bartholomew was seized with a strange and uncontrollable desire to reach out and grasp a "liv wire" carrying a voltage of 8.000. In an Instant he was dead, his corpse dang ling by a "life belt" from the pole. j His Death a Mystery. A party of linemen, sent out by the Portland General Electric Company, was at work lowering a transformer from a pole In the central part of Seiiwood. The massive iron mechanism was part way to the ground when it became nec essary for someone to mount the pole. Bartholomew undertook the task. . He had been with the company for several months and wae thoroughly familiar with the work. "Look out for that live wire," his comrades called to him and Bartholomew paused and discussed the dangers. Then he climbed trie pole and ap peared to deliberately place his ha:,l upon the very strip of steel .against which he had been warned.' What caused this action will ever remain a mystery. Bead Man eaves Widow. J. Bartholomew was SO 'years of age and came to Portland on January 3, at once obtaining employment with the Portland General Electric- Company as lineman. His wife accompanied him to this city, but was visiting friends in the country when the accident occurred. It was thought by those working with the stricken man that the shock might not have proven fatal, instantly follow ing his inexplicable act of grasping the charged wire friends swarmed up the pole to his relief. The body was low ered by means of a rope to the ground and carried -, to a drug-store some, dis tance away. For half an hour every restorative ikriown to' medical science was applied but- at last even the most hopeful j-eahied that the man was dead. uoroner j, f. timer was noiuiea ana went at once to the aoene. l 104 .108 .1U" .UK! .lo OAKLAND KACE TRACK.

Miss Maud Marsells. now an inmate nf the Good Samurllun How pILal, alleges the defendant 1m the fatlu-r of u child born to her In that Institution recently. Dr. Colllngu spent last night In the county Jail, but nils morning was released on cah ball In the sum of J500. He will huve his preliminary hear ing March 18. James Oil-anon is his attorney. Coming to Portland from Vancouver, B. C, Dr. Colllnge soon made himself known to the citizens through !ainh expenditure of coin for newspaper ad vertlslng. The treatment of women by psychic forces was his special line, and he never fulled to attract a crowd of females whenever he advertised a lec ture. He made his initial bow to Port lanu at the Marquam Urand, having a standing-room-only auaience. Other lec tures followed nightly, and Dr. Colllnge became the center of attraction to count less women. Mask Torn Asunder. An angel of mercy. In the form of Mrs. James Edmonds, wus the indirect cause of tearing asunder the mask, and unveiling the alleged perfidy of the pay clilo wonder, Dr. colllnge. She Is a prominent religious worker, and in her rounds visits the bed-rtdden patients at the Good Samaritan Hospital. There lie found Maud MaretiH. the poor un fortunate girl who charges Dr. Colllnge with ner ruin. As the young woman lay on her bed of pnln, Mrs. Edmonds visited her, bringing with her bouquets of flowers and bountiful supplies of Christian sunshine and good cheer. Something 1 n the care-worn and tear-stained cheeks of the sufferer be spoke of sorrow secretly borne. At last, the truth came from the lips that for months had held back the flow of an culHh wslllno- vin in her heart. Tn Mra Edmonds she told her pitiful story, and e the arrest of her alleged seducer soon followed. How He Treats. "Dr. Colllnge Induced me to take his treatment when I lived In Vancouver," said Miss MHrsells. "I went to his pri vate rooms where he gave treatment for an affliction common to my sex. lie knew I was unmarried, and after mak ing an examination, said his advice to me was to become a wife at the earliest possible moment. Uls explanation for this was that I needed nourishment of a peculiar character. "Continuing, Dr. Colllnge told me that 1. n V. n . t i.rnj. .i t,-, aiinnlv I ha nmi ishment. and would do so for the sum I of $3. I paid It, ana I am lying here now, the viotim of his base deception. The child by my side is the result of his perfidy." The allegation is made that In cases where his patients were married women. Dr. Colllnge would Inform them that their union with their husband was In efficient, and that they would experience constant trouble until treated with psy chic vibrations. He wus willing, it is alleged, to furnish the vibrations at so much per vibrate. Bays Very Little. When seen in the city Jail by a Journal reporter. Dr. Colllnge had but little to say. I have obtained counsel, and will do as he advises. 1 have- decided to continue business as usual. The arrest is a scheme to blackmail me. I will light it vigorously. I treated the woman In Vancouver for an ailment, giving her my full course of vibrations." miss Marseiis claims mat alter she became In a delicate condition in Van couver, Dr. Colllnge told her he would provide her with money, and see that she was supplied with every necessity. This she says he failed to do, and after wandering about the country awhile, she came to Portland, going to the hospital. Dr. Colllnge delivered his last lecture at the Taylor-street Methodist Episcopal Church. Church People Deceived. In the light of subsequent develop ments, all members, the directors and the pastor Of Taylor-street Methodist episcopal Church dislike to shoulder the responsibility for having granted Dr. Colllnge the use of the edifice for his lecture. Dr. H. J. Talbott Is pastor of the church.' and disclaims responsibility. V. Y. Masters, Dr. B. C. Brown, and George llirrell are the committee of three having charge of the church property, and they state that all suoh matters as renting the place for lectures are re ferred to the pastor. Dr. Talbott, however, admits that he was asked over the telephone about Dr. Colllnge's lecture, but states he did not know who was talking to him. In fact, from all statements of the church offic ials, It would sesm that no one gave Dr. Colllnge the right to deliver his lecture in the house of worship. seems that au were aecelvea by BSCbAJUIS WAS OS union.

The story is that the President had been told that certain officials had been using their positions to extort money from "Get-RIch-Quick" companies, aided by others who do not hold government positions, but whose prominence enabled them to be of valuable assistance. ,i ; The malfeasance consisted in permit- ting these concerns to continue business after they were known to be frauds.
