Pltiable Condition of Numbers of Home-
less Sufferers.
Guthrie, O. T.. April 30.—-Day1ight in
the Cottonwood valley found dozens of
people still clinging to trees, overturned
houses or timbers in positions which
they had been obliged to sustain all
night. It is believed that many per-
sons dropped into the river during the
night, their bodies being swept down
stream.
~ The 2,000 homeless persons, ill from
exposure and hungry, passed a miser-
able night, and morning found most of
them too weak to give much assistance
either to themselves or others, although
during the night the water had receded
rapidly, and the work of rescue was
more easy this morning.
When darkness stopped further res—
cue last evening, every man available
went busily to work to construct rafts
for use today, and when the first light
of day broke small parties started out
from different points and began trans-
porting the people from their perilous
positions to land. With the recession of
progress.
No more reliable estimate of the
dead or of the property damage than
was given last night could be compiled.
Bodies left on land by. the receding wa-
ters or found pocketed in houses or piles
of debris are being discovered hourly
in the vicinity of Guthrie. What the
damage to life and property farther
out in the country will be cannot be
known until wire and railway train
communication, now at a standstill, is
resumed.

WE: SAID, IT.
, The People of tlie Norwalks Say. We
Are Right.
In'the climate of sudden changes there
prevails a disease, almost unknown in
the old world, which has been. called the
American National Disease. Its many
forms have various symptoms, annoying
alike to the sufferer and his associates.
This disease is catarrh and by millions it
has for years been considered incurable.
Many retended “cures” promised relief
——no time stated—only to disappoint l
the user after he had used enough to
give the manufacturers a good profit.
They held out the promise of a cure in
the future, only to fail after many dollars
had been spent. But there is a remedy
that has relieved and cured millions of
cases of catarrh, thousands of them right
herein New En land. The proprietors
took many hun red free patients in the
Norwalks to prove to the people of these
cities that California Catarrh Cure would
instantly relieve and cure catarrh surely
and quickly. People from N or walk,
South Norwalk, and as far away as Stam-
ford are giving their testimony and it is
all one way, California Catarrh Cure has
triumphed. The National disease is no
longer incurable. Catarrh, disagreeable
and nauseating can be cured and has
been cured right here in Norwalk,
Note this indorsement and be doubtful
no more. One of the people who got a
bottle of California Catarrh Cure at
Plaisted’s Drug Store on December 18th,
was Mrs. A. B. Freeman who lives at 8
Hanford place. After a thorough trial,
she says: “I have suffered a' great deal
with severe headaches caused by catarrh;
my head was stuffed up and my throat
also troubled me greatly. I got a bottle
of California Catarrh Cure at Plaisted’s
Drug Store and it has helped me very
much in every way;it has cleared my head
and keeps it clear, my throat is well and
my headaches have gone for good. I
must say it is a wonderful medicine, and
I am glad to recommend it.”
California Catarrh Cureflis sold by all
dealers; 50 cents, three times as much,
one dollar.
