The Trans-Mississippi and International Exposition will be held in Omaha, Neb., from June 1 to November 1, 1898. The exposition had its origin in resolutions adopted by the Trans-Mississippi Commercial Congress at Omaha, in 1895, representing twenty-four States and Territories. It is controlled by an organization known as the Trans-Mississippi and International Exposition, with a capital of $1,000,000. The management is vested in a directory of fifty members, with an Executive ComEach mittee of six department managers. department is divided into appropriate bureaus, in charge of experts in their respective branches. In addition to the stock subscriptions, revenues aggregating not less than $1,000,000 from various Sources have been assured. Under an act of Congress the enterprise is granted recognition as a national and international exposition, with privileges for the admission of foreign exhibits free of duty, the right to strike memorial medals through the United States Mints, and all other privileges heretofore granted to international expositions. The Government will have a large building and place therein a Government exhibit. The bill carried an appropriation of $200,000. The Secretary of the Treasury has issued official orders covering the regulations under which foreign exhibitors may participate. By direction of President McKinley, the State Department has extended invitations to the rulers of foreign nations soliciting them to participate. Nebraska has appropriated $100,000, Illinois $45,000, Montana $30,000. and Colorado, Utah, Iowa and other Western States have made appropriations and are preparing extensive exhibits. The city of Omaha has contributed $30,000, through its Park Commission, and will doubtless increase this sum to a total of $100,000 by expenditures for beautifying and improving the Exposition grounds and approaches thereto before the opening day of the Exposition, while Douglas County, of which Omaha is the seat, will issue $100,000 in Exposition bonds.

A great warm current, much like the Gulf Stream and of equal magnitude, called the Black Stream or Japan current, runs northward along the eastern shore of Asia. Close to the east coast of Japan it flows through a marine valley, which holds the deepest water in the world. It was sounded at a depth of five and a quarter miles by the United States steamTuscarora in 1875, while surveying for a projected cable route between the United States and Japan. The heavy sounding-weight took more than an hour to sink to the bottom. But trial was made of a chasm yet more profound. where the lead did not fetch up at all. November, 1895, a depth of 29,400 feet was attained without touching the bed of the ocean, in latitude 23 degrees 40 min. S.; longitude 175 degrees 10 min. W. er In The great buildings of the Exposition include the Agriculture, Fine Arts, Electricity and Machinery. Mines and Mining. Manufactures and the Auditorium. There are various smaller buildings in course of construction. The grounds are within the city limits, on the north side. A large number of National bodies will hold annual meetings in Omaha this year. The principal officers are: Gurdon W.

The floods that swept down the Mississippi Valley in the spring of 1897 were declared to be the most remarkable in the history of the continent. Not only was the tributaries of the Mississippi during the latter part of March and the middle of April, but the Mississippi River itself had been so dyked and leveed, and its aforetime outlets so stopped up, that the stream rose to 49.75 feet, or one and a quarter feet above the highest record of any previous year. The back waters, where the levees were broken, flooded lands not before in history known to have been flooded. From Marion, Ark., to Greer ville, Miss., a distance of more than two hundred and fifty miles by river, at least fifty towns and villages were under water, and a territory extending from one hundred miles north of Memphis to two hundred miles south and from five To forty miles wide, was submerged. Hundreds of thousands of acres of cultivated lands were submerged, and from 50,000 to 60,000 people had their property destroyed and business suspended. On April 7 President McKinley sent a special message to Congress urging prompt, generous and intelligent action for the relief of the sufferers. A joint resolution was introduced in both houses of Congress on the same day, and passed by each, appropriating $200,000 to be used for the purchase of subsistence stores and the distribution of them to the relief of the destitute. The President signed the bill on April 17. SEAGOING The estimated losses by the floods were: Louisiana, $1,750,000; Mississippi, $8,500,000; Arkansas, $4,250,000. The Commission reported that the flood of the Missisippi was the highest of which there is any record. The total length of the levees on both sides of the river was 1,377 miles, and there were in all thirty-eight breaks by the flood, aggregating eight and seventenths miles. An interesting feature of the breakages is that none of the levees built by the United States Government were broken, but the breaks occurred in those portions which had been built by States or municipalities or private per sons. On April 27 a cloudburst swept over Oklahoma, and on the following morning a wall of water from six to eight feet high and a mile wide broke over West Guthrie, crushing houses, sweeping away property and drowning many persons.
