/: Last Saturday afternoon heavy rain
storm occurred along The Southern Mn
nesota b. X. east Of Ramsey Junction
are of the heaviest falls Of water known
for years-which caused tie vzsekiaa Of
tEo freight trains on that road, and the
killing Of one man. and serious injury
Of another. As conductor Dan Hickey's
train, which left Ramsey 2:15P. N. on
that day, was crossing . cnlvcrt about
three miles cast Of Bsovnsdalc, the water
had undermined fhe track so that the en-.
gine and several caz1 were thrown of,
resulting In the killing Of the fireman,
Michael Cxmmins, and breaking q leg
and collar bone ofthe engineer, ]. Brown.
Mr.. Brown was quite severely scalded
clso, but It is thought he will recover.
The unfortunate young man is being
cared for ut one of tho hotels in Browns
dale. The engine No. 10 is almost TO-
tai wreck. 1t Is nearly new engine
having been in use but q few months. 1t
ia estimated that it will cost from 5000
to $1,000 to put her in running order
again.
The other isain was ditched by cul-
vert giving away in consequence Of the
high water at q point two miles west of
Spring Valley. Sevcrak cars were stove
up, ard the track was badly dcmoralized,
bnt no one MAS hurt. Sixteen cars we're
smashed by the vrccking Of both trains.
The track was repaired az speedily as
possible, but trains did not run regularly
until Tuesday of this week. No blame
L. attached to any one as fur as VIC can
learn for either of the accidents.

Impossible!" cried my hostess.
"But I've seen her," shrieked l. "Not

my host, laughing; {" it's the figurehead of

tween two colonies Of ants, one the small
red ant, about one-eighth of an inch long /;
the other brown ant, about one-fourth
of an inch long.
It seems that the brown ants had at
tackled the red ants in their holes, driv-
ing and whipping them outside. After
the red ants had been driven out, to the
number of several millions, apparently,
they would take refuge under every Leaf
and chip that could be found in the space
of three yards square, which was the
size of the battle-ground.
The brown ants would throw out skir-
mishers, who would advance near to the
red ants, and were Immediately attacked
by the reds, and nearly annlhilated, the
survivors returning to the main body. The
main body would advance upon the red
army, which would break ranks and scat
ter in all directions, the brown ants pur-
suing, and killing all they could catch. /.
They displayed as much bravery, and
evinced as much judgment, as intelligent
human beings The red ants would not
risk an open engagement, but would In
stantly surround any struggling party and
kill them, though they themselves were
afterwards exterminated. The brown
ants, on receiving information from their
scouts of the whereabouts, would swarm
out of their haunt by myriads, their mo-
tions expressing the greatest fury as they
tumbled over one another in their eager
ness to fipht.
