At 12 oclock a bank of water three feet high and 200 feet wide awept through the bottoms, carrying bouses and everything before It. It came upon Enid without while warning most of Its citizens were asleep. Within a few minutes 100 houses were partly or completely submerged. Rescuers went to work Immediately, and all that night labored Industriously saving persons from perilous positions and aiding those driven from their homes. Many pitiable s enes were witnessed as the people stood around waiting for the water to subside. Many had lost everything they possessed. The citizens are busily engaged telievtng the distress, but the means at band are inadequate.

They began by breaking windows, and Boon began to assault the Jewish residents. For a distance of two miles they left very little of any Jewish nouse. They entered my house and struck mother with a club on the head, and for hours she was between life and death. They knocked me down with a club, but did not molest the children. Then they went away and the children took care of mother. The next day, while we lay bidden for a period of four hours we could ear the shouts and shrieks of the jured people. The populace entered every house and store and threw everything out Into the streets and tore up the goods In the dry goods stores, and literally wrecked every Jewish place of business in the city.

Serious Question Involving Validity of All Acts Since 1900. A serious question, involving the validity of all legislation enacted In the Hawaiian Islands since 1900, has been brought to light by Superintendent of Public Works Henry E. Cooper, who refuses to act under the regulations of the recently adopted county govern ment act, on the ground that the act is unconstlutlonal. Cooper claims that the act Is In valid by the fact that the legislature permitted the use of the Hawaiian Ian guage during its deliberations, which Cooper holds was prohibited by con gresa in the teritorial government act During the recent session of the legislature the question of allowing the Hawaiian language to be spoken was bitterly fought, and it was only after the threat of the natives to block all legislation that the white contingent In the legislature agreed to permit the native tongue to be spoken.

INVITATIONS TO THE WEDDING Woes of the Man Who Gets One and and What It Costs. A wedding Invitation la practleaiij an admission ticket, costing $20, to the church service: reception at the house afterward, extra; cards to tha at home, more extra. When a man gets an Invitation nowadays he feels as he does when he has been served with a subpoena. He sputters about the idiocy of marriage in general, and wonders why in thunder, or somewhere else, where thunder is unknown, those little fools didnt just stand up and get married and get It over with. Then when he calms down he is inveigled into making an appointment with his wife at some jewelers. There he Is met with a bewildering array of silver trowels, meat saws and miniature pitchfork which his learned wife explains to him are fish knives, lettuce, servers and berry forks respectively. Then, as his eyes wander about th store, he spies a golden ball, perforated with fancy holes, and he ventures the facetious remark to his wife that they might take time by the fore; lock and send that . baby's rattle: Which la met by the chilling rejoinder that that" is a tea ball, and it is just the very thing. And so the man hands over the necessary and his wife directs where the golden tea ball shall be sent. The feelings of a strong, healthy man being required to attach, his card to a dinky tea ball and send it to a young couple as a mark of his good wishes fail either of expression o i description.
