Buffalo April 12. -Twice this year

'time since the White Man hits come to
'the banks of the Niagara, the voice of
It/ae river hes been mute. The nese
Itime was late in Rebrwary when, fol-
aowing a severe aouthwester, the fieed
lams frozen aolid from hank to bank,
, Unprece4ented weather has brought
!about unprecedented cenclitions. On
'Wednesday of last week the worst
gale of the season and the most vio-
lent that the recoida of the weather
'bureau have ever recorded, for April,
Itore out of the southwest, and folio*.
iing the lakes and the channel of the
Niagara, left ruin in it wake. The solid
lice fields of Lake Erie were churned
from end to end and piled in a huge
'conglomerate mass at the lower end
lof the lake.
-itt Niagara Falls there had been a
heavy ice bridge in the pool below
'rthe cataract since the middle of the
'winter. Under the impact of. the
'mass of ice from the lake above and
;the added flood brought doivzi by the
rwind, the bridge gave way and began
!to surge down the rapids; but before
it cquld win freedom in the ample
avatars of Lake Ontario, the wind
*hilted again to the north. Instantly
the moving floes packed at the mouth
lof the river. Each instant of cad
'congealed the pack more solidly and
each hour brought added pressure
'from above.
Unable to escape by its natural
'channels the level of the river rose by
leaps and bounds. The highest flood
'level recorded from previous years is
1,28 feet above normal. Friday night
'the river was 40 feet above normal.
Water on Saturday poure,d ever the
aille of the power house Of the On-
tario Power Co., which had been plac-
ed at. what all engineers thought to
rbe a rade height above any and all
possible dangerss, and ' flooded the
'machines. Yesterday, however, the
mower house was cleared of ice and
lwater, a score of experts have been
at work drying and cleaning the six
'monster ten thousand h.p. generators,
sthat, with the numerous smaller elec.
!tried apparatus were submerged in
126 feet bf water as well as the hydrau-
lic machinery in the pit bele* the

Temporary connection was made
through the courtesy of the Electrical

'cheater, Syracuse and Seneca and
:elsewhere are being used to supply a
aeortion of the load in the State of
New York. The intention is to sup-
ply the public service corporations

No permanent damage is done to
the power house and its machinery.

CONDITIONS . IN CAMP.
.Charges Laid Against Northern Con-
struction Co.
Port Arthur, April 12. --Barrister
A. E. Cole, accompanied. by G. Mc-
Nabb and G. Senath, Woodsmen,
called* on Magistrate Dobie Saturday
with a view to laying information for
, a charge of ,rnanslaUghter against the
foreman of the Northern Construction
Co.'s camp No. 3, at Kashabowie.
It is alleged he was the cause of
the death of George Seville, a laborer,
by ordering him from camp while sick
and in a destitute condition, without
medical attention. Seville, unable to
walk, Was thrown on a tote wagon
and died en route to the railway.
Dobie was unable to accept the in-
formation because it was out of his
jurisdiction, and also because there
was no coroner's inquest.
Mr. Cole has .had considerable ex-
perience with men from the luraber
and railway camps, and says that the
way men are robbed, abused and neg-
lected is worse than the old condi-
tions of slavery, for there the value
of a slave, to say $1,000, made an em-
ployer careful, but a dead laborer can
be replaced by application to an em-
ployment agent, with a ,good chance
that the victims' relatives do not
know of his death to enquire .about
any wages that may be due.
He may make an appeal to Ottawa.

CAIRNS THROWN OUT
Venezuelan 1$ ignomini 'wally Ex-

Despite Protestation That His Health
Was Poor, ex -President is Carried

Port de France" April 12. -Cipriano
Castro, ex-presineut of Venezuela,
was on Saturday ignominiously. expel-
led front the Island of Martinique by
the French Government.
He protested to the last against his
expulsion, but his protests were in
vain. He is now en board the French
line steamship Versailles bound for
St. Nazaire, France.
Official notice was serve on Castro
Saturday morning of the decision •of
the French Government that he must
leave the island wihin nine hours
from the receipt of such notice and
that the commissary of police at Fort
de France had been charged with
the execution of the order. The ex.

isfactory to the Colonial Government,
whereby he would not be compelled
to obey the order, and to this end
later in the afternoon summoned a
lawyer and physician to certify that
he was unable to leave the country.
The affair created a great sensation,
and long before the police made their
appearance at the hotel crowds had
gathered, which later were joined by
the consuls representing the various
powers, who showed great interest in
the expulsion of • what one of them
termed the "common enemy of
Peace." Castro, who, during his few
days at Fort de France, has had very
little communication with anybody,
locked himself in his room, in com-
pany with his brother Carmelo, and
his secretary, and for a time refused
to reply to the summons of the police
officials.
At the very last moment the gover-
' nor and public prosecutor decided to
have another medical examination
made.
• Accordingly a medical commission'
composed of Drs. Bouvier Costet and
Barbe proceeded with the examine-
tien, in order to establish definitely if
Castro's health was such that he
could make the voyage. The °eremite -
lions of the physiciana continued for
more than half an hour, and they
agreed that the life of the ex -Presi-
dent would not be jeopardized by his
removal to the steamer and the return
voyage across the ()dean. •
At 8.30 a force of gendarmes went
to Castor's neorn and he was placed
on a mattress, refusing to put on his
clothes, and carried en a stretcher to
the steamer, a distance of more than
a mile.

London, April 12. -With the risine
of the sun upon England Saturday,
ebere began the most remarkable cake
bration of which the world has re-
cord. It ran completely around the
globe with that day's light, embraced
men of all races; complexions and de-
gree, was observed with equal fervor
in semi -polar frost and under the'
equator, and was the occasion of such
an outpouring of love, gratitude, good-
will and congratulation, all directed
upon one man, as surely no other
one man has ever received.
General William Booth,. founder,
heed and director of the Salvation
Army, was 80 years old. Not alone
the thousands of his °facers andmil-
lions of his soldiers in afty-four
countries joined in observing the clay,
but the general's modest homes was
• doubtless, almost submerged in a
flood of messages from great men and
good in all the lands.
William Booth- was bean in Notting-
ham; England. His father was a mer-
chant, for a time fairly well to do.
The family was earnestly Episcopa-
lian. When he was only' 15 years old,
youngBooth wandered purposelessly
one night into a Methodist chapel and
became a member of the Methodist
Chureli
He started out, a boy, 15 or 16 years
old, as a field or lay preacher, holding
services in the slum streets of Not-
tingham, standing on a chair or a
box at a corner while he preached
and pleaded. Ruffians tried to break
up his meetings, pelting him with
stones and filth. He resented noth-
ing, defended himself against noth-
ing but, milling quietly while the verr
bal and material missiles flew, plead-
ed on for souls. • .
When he was .20 the exigencies of
earning his bread Molt him to. Lon-
don, where, without a pause; he threw
himself into the work* in the great
slums of the East End. In. a few
months he was a favorite and well-
known preacher. On May 29, 1858, he
was regularly ordained a minister of
the Methodist Church. • ,'
From that time his work grew with
amazing rapidity and soon his own
nickname of "General" suggested the
establishment upon military 'lines of
an army which has become the huge
institution known the world over.
The Earl to the General.
London, April 12.--(0.A.P. Cablea-
General Booth has received a birth-
day message from Earl Grey wishing

and adding: ``There are many in Can-
