A DISPATCH from Panama says: Can
ca valley was devastated Ivy recent
floods. The river rose yards above
the highest point heretofore known,
and inundated the country for about
three miles, SWEEP ing away villages,
crops, cattle, goats and horses. Some
human lives were also lost. As the
waters began to recede farmers In
boats endeavored to gather the cocoa
crop remaining on the trees. Clti-
zcns go armed TO protect themselves
against the immense snakes which
had been driven down the valley by
the torrent. Losses estimated at 81,

Miss /. w. Long

Would respectfully state to her friends
and the trade in general that she will be
receiving new goods this week and the
following weeks through the season.
Although 1 have large share of the
trade, l wish this tall to double their
number, and to induce buyers to whom |
have never sold to give me trial and
convince themselves that it will be to
their advantage. l shall offer millinery
far below prices that have ever been
reached before. In these days of close
rivalry it is imperatively necessary to
buy right or you cannot compete with
your more wide-awake neighbor Fully
appreciatng this, 1 am constantly on the
lookout for bargains, and am always
ready to dispose of these bargains at a
slight advance.
Assuring my customers that I will con-
tinue to use my best exertions in their
behalf, and with many thanks for their
liberal patronage, remain
Very respectfully,
Miss L. W. LONG.

The Vermont Watchman contains an
extended biographical sketch Of DR.. Nor
man W. Braley, president of the Nation
al Bank of Barre, who died suddenly of
appoplexy, Sept. 18th. at his home at
Barre. DR.. Braley was the oldest brother
of Mr.. Geo. w. Braley, of Redwood, and
all three of the surviving brothers are
quite well known here. For more than
twenty years he was prominent and
successful physician at Chelsea, VT, and
for the remainder of his career the found
er and head of the National Bank of Bar
re. He was public spirited and upright
as citizen, and the Watchmah concludes
the sketch by saying that "to the COM
munity at large, as they miss him from
the places which knew him so we'll, there
will come a consciousness that a noble
hearted, generous man has gone from
among them.'

arresting him is pursued in some bcnight-

our police should be provided with a

ing syrup. !. Z.

Anxious Hprtngers.

The Mayor informed US last evening
that he was constantly receiving letters
making inquiries in relation to the
Springer estate in this city. lie re-
received two yesterday, one of which
goes to say that the writer attached no
belief to the claim; but the main rea-
son for his writing was to learn when
there would be an annual meeting OF
the family so as he can make inquiries
which might in the end lead to the re-
covery of lost uncle whose name is
Springer and who is about seventy
years of age. The second was from DR..
A. E. Watson, of Fostoria, o., who
writes at the request of Charlotte Ickes,
daughter of John Springer, of straus-
burg Co., Pa. He says: "Will you
please be SO kind as to give me the
lease of this property, of the time
the lease expired; also how much
of the original tract of land is unim-
proved. But the thing is to know
when that lease was given and when it
expired. We do not wish tospend any
money foolishly. There has already
been too much thrown away by people
within my own knowledge. 1t is too
often a money making scheme; when
traced back, it is found to be beyond
the reach of the lawful heirs. If such
is the case in regard to this I wish to
know it..
