A ship was lying at anchor at Boca
Grande, says the Punta Gorda Herald,
lately when the crew observed a dol
phin chasing a flying fish, both coming
directly toward the ship. On nearing
the vessel the flier arose in the air
and passed over the bow Just abaft
the foremast. As It did so the dolphin
went under the ship and, coming up
on the other side, sprang from the
water and caught the flying fish on
"the fly” just as it was curving grace
fully down in its descent to the water.

Paris, Jan. 25.— A t 2 o’clock this
morning the water, which was rushing
through the tunnel under the Quai d’
Oraay station burat through the road
way and flooded the streets, including
the Kue de Lille, and Kue de Poitiers
and the Kue de Bellechaase, on which
are many aristocratic residences. The
sidewalk» are likely to cave in at any
time. Those who occupied the houses
were awakened and hurried to places ot
safety.
At, 8 :30 this morning the flood from
the Quai d’ Orsay station extended to
the Kue de l ’ Universite. It is esti
mated that the homeless in the out
skirts of Paris number at least 6,000.
Four soldiers have been drowned at
Villeneuve and three at Alfotville,
while engaged in rescue work.
The situation resulting from the
floodB is fast becoming desperate. The
premier and minister of the interior
made this declaration tonight.
A ll
conditions indicated a further rise of
several inches of the River Seine and
the cold rain, which still continues, is
causing intenLe suffering among those
who have been made homeless. There
is little prospect of relief.
M. Millerand, minister of the public
works, after a tour of inspection, said
that if the rise continued nothing could
prevent a deplorable disaster and the
flooding of the most populous quarters
in Paris.
Measures that had been
taken, he said, appeared to him to be
adequate “ for the present, but only for
the present.”
Paris is threatened with an immedi
ate and complete tie-up. The stoppage
of transportation has raised prices of
food, which is becoming Bcarce, and
the supply of water in seven arrondis-
sements has been crippled.
Authori
ties assert that drinking water is as
sured, but there is no water for indus
trial services, which are practically
suspended.
The Red Cross society is organizing
aid for the sufferers. ' Subscriptions
have been opened and theaters are ar
ranging benefits.
A t midnight the
water was less than a foot from the
arch of the Pont de l ’Alma.
Other
oridges are not in such danger, unless
river craft is swept against them.
Big sewers in the Place de Havre and
near Place de al Madelaine burst to
day, threatened foundations of houses.
Part of Rue St. Lazare threatens to
cave in and the who e street had been
closed. TunnelB of the subway now
under construction are flooded.
The
Orleans terminus is a vast pool and en
gineers fear th it the tunnels may col
apse.
At Alforville 2,000 people are home
less. The water is 12 feet deep.
The salvage is being done by sold
iers in autoboats at the risk of their
lives.
All the factories above and below
Paris are closed and thousands of per
sons are out of employment.
The provinces show improvement.
At Tours Sur Marne, however, eight
houses collapsed and at Juvigny 12 col
lapsed. The authorities have decided
to blow up the dam and allow the canal
to flow into the river and save the
buildings. A hundred houses at Chalon
threaten to fall.
The situation at several places up
and down the river is deplorable. The
lower quarters of all the towns on the
riser below Paris are under water, the
streets at Auteil resembling those at
Venice. A dyke near St Germain
broke today, flooding the valley as far
as Malmaison.
The lower portion of the Bois du
Boulogne is a blanket of water reach
ing to.Bagatelle. Judging from reports
received today from the provinces a
quarter of France is under water.
The Eastern, Central and Southeastern
districts of France are terribly afflict
ed. The valleys and plains are inun
dated and the cities and towns are in
darkness.
Troops everywhere have
been ordered to the work of rescue,
but often they encounter the greatest
difficulty in driving the peasants to
places of safety. The cities of Mon-
targis, Macon, Chalons sur Saone and
Epernay and the entire Champagne
country are experiencing the most dis
astrous floods since 1866. The water
in many of the villages along the Saone
and Marne reaches to the roofs of the
dwellings.___________________

Nebulous Body With Flowing
Plainly Seen at Sunset.
Douglas, Arizona, Jan. 24.— Without
being heralded, there appeared in the
western horizon just before dusk this
evening, a spectacle such as none in
these parts had ever before witnessed
It was nothing more nor leBS than a
magnificent comet, or a body having
all the appearances of one, with nu
cleus, coma and a great tail.
The
word was quickly passed around and
soon the whole city was out viewing
the beautiful spectacle.
A t first it
was supposed as a matter of course it
was Halley’s comet, though this is not
expected until April, but word from
Professor Douglas, astronomer at the
state university at TucBon, is that the
stranger is distinct from H alley’s.
The same word also comes to the Dis
patch here from Flagstaff university,
in Northern Arizona.
The wonder of the spectacle was its
completeness and its appearance with
out any warning just after sunset.
Douglas is about 4,000 feet above
the >ea and has a wonderfully clear at
mosphere. No comet like this one has
ever before been seen in this section.
Honolulu, Jan. 24. Captains o f in
ter island vessels arriving here report
having seen Halley’s comet.
Disputes Delay Settlement.
Paris, Jan. 24.— It is rumored here
that the delay in the final settlement
of the terms of the Hankow-Szechun
railway loan was due chiefly to dis
putes over details connected with the
apportionment of the roadway between
the financial groups interested,
the
construction material and similar ques
tions. According to a statement in
well-infomred quarters, the French
group, headed by the Indo-China bank,
held out because they considered that
they had not been fairly treated in the
apportionment.
France and Britain Agreed.
Paris, Jan. 24. After exchanges be
tween the two cabinets, both Frarce
and Great Britain have decided to con
form their answers to SecretaryKnox’s
Manchurian proposition to those of
Russia and Japan, which have declined
the proposal for the neutralization of
the Manchurian railways.
Although
both Russia and Japan make reserva
tions regarding the Aigun-Tsitsikar
proposition, the Temps today insists
that the concession would be a viola
tion of the Anglo-Pussian convention
and the Chino-Japanese convention.

The Social Matrons were having a
meeting to discuss the never-ending
queetion of cooks. It was the almost
unanimous opfnion of the assembly,
after an hour’s talk, that It was impos
sible to keep a cook more than a
month without changing. “However,”
mnounced the president, "If any per
son knows of an exceptional case, let
her speak.” A writer in the Philadel
phia Ledger tells the story:
At this the new member timidly
rose. “The exception is in my house,”
she said.
“How long have you had your cook?’
asked the president.
“Over five years.”
For a moment the others stared in
amazement; then heads began to bob
In admiration, and more heads began
to swing sidewise in vigorous distrust
Df the statement.
“Is this cook entirely satisfactory aa
a cook?”
“My husband thinks not. but she
stays, nevertheless.”
“How do you manage to keep her,
hen?”
‘‘Because she won’t go.”
“A h a!”
This ejaculation, which escaped from
the president’s mouth, was flashed like
magic through the meeting until it be
came a huge wave.
The
president
regarded the new
member with half-pity, half-scorn.
“Mrs. Smith,” said she, the next mo
ment, ‘instead of advancing a case In
vhlch a long-sought solution might
have been found, you expose yourself
is being worse off than any of your
sisters. You show that by allowing
this cook to stay over the month you
have enabled the menial to attain and
hold an ascendency over you and your
husband— Just the thing this society
has so long fought against! No doubt
you regret your position, Mrs. Smith ’*
"I do not!” she replied, bridling
through the sniffs and tart Insinua
tions that scintillated about her. "I
im the cook!”
