Paris, Jan. 25.—The floods have brought disaster to a large part of France. The ordinary modest "and peaceful Seine is now a raging tor rent and rising at the rate of more than half an inch per tour. As it furiously rushes seaward, it sounds the message of increasing misery and destruction. The general expectation that the maximum of the flood would be reached tonight has not been realiz ed. Occasional reports from the Seine's affluents this afternoon that they were beginning to fall, have proved incorrect, for thev are rising steadily, and the official estimate tonight is that the Seine will be at least 15 inches higher by tomorrow afternoon.

SOMECHANGES IN BASEBALL Pittsburg, Pa., Jan. 25.—(Special) —Although the question of how much baseball rather than how to play was the paramount issue in the meetings today of the joint sched ule and rules committees of the American and National leagues, the rule makers had before them several proposals for more or less import ant alterations in the game. The suggestions were drawn up by Rob ert McRoy, the American league sec retary, and John Flanner, Ban Johnson's general utility man. One of the proposals is to prohibit "hiding the bail." The trick was a favorite with big league infielders seasons ago and even now is often tried with success. The principal objection given to it is the delay in volved. (By Associated Pteaa.)

DURKE IS FOR A SAFE AND SANE 4TH MADAME PAUL WITTER. Chicago, Jan. 25.—Contributions for the girls' school at Sioux Falls, S. D., founded by the lute Bishop William Hobart Hare were received yesterday at a memorial service held in St. James Episcopal •-turch. Rev. James S. Stone, rector ot St. James, and a personal friend of the late bishop, paid a high tribute to the distinguished prelate and related in teresting anecdotes of his career. "It is difficult to understand," said Dr. Stone, "how Bishop Hare retained his beautiful refinement af ter thirty six years spent practically upon the frontier. But in every way he was the embodiment of all that a bishop of the church and a Chris tian gentleman should be. "Perhaps Bishop Hare was best known for his work among the In dians of that western country. At the time of his death there were 6,OttO Sioux Indians in South Dakota and his untiring efforts to christian ize them cannot better be described than to say that 4,000 are communi cants of the Episcopal church." Dr. Stone related that when Gen. Grant was president an uprising of the South Dakota Sioux was threat ened. The chief executive appealed to Bishop Hare to do what he could to prevent. Alone and unarmed the clergyman visited the hostile camps and by the mere force of his per sonality stemmed the uprising.

"Finding that his wife showed no inclination to return to him, my son deeded the children to me. Under the law of South Carolina, this may be done by a father for the good of his children, or by the wife, in case the father is not living That is why they are now here.

The irritation was always worse at night and would not allow me to sleep, or my wife either, and it was completely under mining our health. I lost fifty pounds in weight and was almost out of my mind with pain and* chagrin as no matter where the irrita tion came, at work, on the street or in the presence of company, I would have to scratch it until I had the blood running down into my shoe. I simply cannot describe my suffering during: those seven years. The pain, mortifi cation, loss of sleep, both to myself and wife is simply indescribable on paper and one has to experience it to know what it is. "I tried all kinds of doctors and remedies but I might as well have thrown my money down a sewer.
