Instead of the customary dean izy H J ' boards, tlie floor was covered ni& between Eg ■ ~' tw <> and three inehee of water, and from 1 I , a spot in the ceiling a few yards back from H t the main door a voritablo cascade of tin B • ' "best Wainni" was descending on Q» ghd- i ■; . coloured piles of materials bo deax to the ( if : feminine eye. Kor was it coming down in ' U j one direct stream. In a mad merry mood fl i ' ■ tho water traversed-the seams, and ran/along H ■ ! the oeSing until it found a conwamct ctmp- H i ' ping place. What was underneath intoenoed | it not, pno way or the other. I No time was lost in locating the cause " 9 of tbo flooding, which was a defect in a-Jasa- j { tary upstairs. The water affected the Map- " j chaster and dress departments, saturating j I piles of cretonnes, drees materials, calicoes, i 'i . ' , eheeting, napery, and boxes of blames iriih | j reckless indiscrimination. As soon as the j staff , arrived, the soaked goods were convoyed I i . into the backyard, and were hung ont to-dry I ■ ,| on half a hundred lines rigged up for the I pnrpose.
