Heavy Rainfall
The rainfall for the 2 4 hours end­

but the University gauge showed 1.96

inches for the two days, an almost
unprecedented record.
Not Much Damage
As far as can be learned there has
not been much damage by the high
water. Judge Chrisman and the
county commissioners have received
no reports of serious loss to county
bride“«, further than the washing
nvay of several culverts and bridges
ipanning small creeks.
The Booth-Kelly Company report
that the Mohawk was at a standstill

to the the worst epidemic of sick­

in Pittsburg. Physicians report that
thousands are prostrated with pneu­
monia, typhoid and the grippe. The
consequent scarcity of employes in
the large office buildings is seriously
felt, and car companies have difficul­
