Judge Cobb has rendered a decree in the cele-brated water cult, which involve, the the right, of every settler on the Black-foo- t river and its tributaries who uses water therefrom. He has distrib-uted the same on a basis of one inch to the acre on all laud under cultivation. This does not signify that all settlers will get water. The earliest appropriators have the absolute use thereof to the exclusion of later claimants, in the event that the amount is not sufficient to meet the wants of all claimants. The decree will necessitate tho election of a water commissioner, ami the claimants will probably elect without unnecessary delay. Crops along the lower Blackfoot are suffering sorely for the want of water. BUSINESS AND IRRIGATION BREVITIES Cutting Down Transportation Bat.. Colo-rado hiear.l.a.

This is in the coast towns aloue. The towns in the interior have not bejn heard from yet aaj until reports are received from them the total number of killed can not be kbnwn. It is thought the number of the dead jn the interior towns will be ei1ual to or greater than in the coast towns. It is known that houses, crops and trees, from one eud of Martinique to the other are demolished or flattened down beyond hope of recovery. The loss to the coffee and sugar planters is great. The troops at the disposal of the government, and a largo body of volunteers, are busy at work in all directions succoring the injured and burying the dead. The physians of the islands have had hardly an hours rest since the hurri-cane passage and the citizens of all classes are doing their utmost to help the sufferers, and to repair, so far as possible, the damage done.

The Eoly Coat Exposed to View in the Cathedral at Treves After Lying Hidden for a Generation- - THE SIGHT OF THE ANCIENT RELIC Many People Overcome by Their Emotions Scenes of the most Deeply Devotion-al Character History of the Coat Berlin, Aug. 21. The Holy Coat was exposed to view yesterday in the cathedral at Treves. Two Knights of Malta in full costume, with drawn swords, stood on either side of the enclos-ing case, which was surrounded by lighted' candles and surmounted by a large gold cross. The cathedral was richly decorated and packod to the doors with people. There was an impressive scene in the sanctuary, over one hun-dred priests assisting in the ceremonies, which were grand in the extreme After an address by Bishop Korull the nave of tho cathedral was cleared to enable the municipal authorities and parochial societies to march up to the sbrino and venerable relic. Then came the pilgrims ami tourists. The scene was motley. The unveiling of the relic made a deeply devotional impression on tne crowd oi worshipors. Many were overpowered by their feelings, and sev-eral women fainted. The procession of pilgrims past the shrine, most of wnom handed a rosary or crucifix to the priests for contact with the rel.c, was accompanied by a low hum of pater nostcm and avc.i. Outside the cathedral was a busy scene, to which processions with banners and music, throngs of visitors, etc., all contributed. During the whole time the Holy Coat is on exhibition twenty excursions a day will arrive at Treves. Jn order that the town may not be overcrowded, the ditferent bands of pilgrims led by the priests will only be permittted to remain one night in town. Pictures of the Holy Coat are to be seen not only in every shop window, but there are millions of representations in all si.es on handkerchiefs, paper, earthenware, wood and metal. The photographs are merely representations of the drawings published in 1H44. Much commeut has been caused by the remarks of Bishop Korull, in bis opening address, when he re-ferred pointedly to the spiritual signifi-cation of the Holy Coat as being a seamless vesture aud a symbol of the unity of the Catholic church. There were many Unman Catholic members of the Reichstag present and it is said the bishop particularly addressed his marks to those present. The first solemn exhibition of the ooat whs in ll'.)6, when it was placed under the new altar. There it rested until 1511, when the Emperor Maximil-lia-wished it to be exhibited, and it YM flo5e. I t yeas shuivB leverst- !:raei again during that century, and also In" lt;i.'i. In the latter part of the seven-teenth century, when the French under Louis XIV. invaded Germany, the pre-cious relic was hidden in the fortress of Ehrenbreidstein, where it was kept un-til after the Seven Years' war. After the last exhibition there, in 17K5, it was brought back to Treves, but a few years later it had to be removed into the in-terior of Germany, when Napoleon in-vaded the country. In 1N10 Napoleon fiermitted another solemn exhibition, forbade miracles to be performed. Vet the reports of that lime say that gouty persons who were wheeled up walked away alone. The Treves newspapers are full of ac-counts of the miracles which took place at tho exhibition of 1844. At 10 o'clock last night pilgrims were still filing in to behold the relic and an eager throng was besieging the doors of the cathe-dral. The police had some trouble to preserve order. The whole town is in commotion. Pickpockets are rampant and several men have been arrested. Mod. n Good Daub Atlanta. Ga., Aug. 21.

Let me say, however, that this being the fifty-eight- birthday of the president, we can properly extend to him the heartiest and most sincere wishes. His administration will be kuawn in tha hereafter, not so much as a republican administration as an American administration.'' President Harrison, in replying, said: "It was a part of the covenant that this feast should be a silent one, not exactly a Quaker meeting.as Mr. Arkell has said, because silence there is apt to be broken by a moving of the spirit.
