General Destruction.
ST. JOIN, n. B., Oct. 9.-Not for
twenty years have there been such
autumn floods as are now devastating
the western and southern part of this
province. The rainfall up to p. m.
yesterday was 4.55 inches for this
month, while the average of the entire
month of October for twenty-five years
has been 4.60 inches. Communication
with Bangor is again cut off. owing to
numerous waShOuts on the New Bruins
wick railway. A mile from WelSfOrd
there is WaShOut 500 feet i'll length
and 4 feet deep. A mile further
away there is another fifteen feet deep
and 200 feet long, while several smaller
ones vary from three to fifteen feet.
The "Flying Yankee" for Boston was
tied up at WelSfOrd, and the down train
from Fredericton was stopped within
fifteen miles of that place by the giving
way of bridge. All the streams along
the line have overfiOwed their banks,
and the whole country for miles at a
stretch seems to be under water. There
are waSh-outs on the line of the North
ern and Western, which extends from
Fredericton 10 Chatham. There are
several waSh-Out5 above Woodstock,
and the passage of trains is stopped.
st. John will be cut off from the West
for two more days at least. All mail
matter for the United States will be
sent by way of the Inter-C Colonial rail-
Way to Richmond junction.

ordered the body buried at once.

TIE senate tariff bill is simply an en-
forced confession and pitiable avoid
ance. 1t confesses the wrong of over
taxation and avoids lessening taxes on
most of the common necessaries of life
and on most of the common necessaries
of business. 1t is simply the confession
of demoralized party and the avoid
ance of an artful dodger. 1t is bill
that the senate does not want and that
the country will not have.

A Lively Runaway.

There was an exceedingly lively run
away on Hennepin avenue, near the
Clark house, yesterday afternoon. The
horses attached to Northwestern Fuel
company wagon were hauling load of
coal up the street, when they became
frightened and ran, striking another
wagon and carrying away a wheel.
This frightened the animals the more,
and they dashed down the avenue on
dead run. At the corner of Third street
the wagon tipped over, and the coal
went sailing over the pavement. The
horses were captured by two policemen.
No one was injured.

large crowd turned out to attend the
Democratic rally at the opera house this
evening. The first speaker was DR..
Bert Robertson, of Graceville, re-
formed Republican. His arguments
were sound and sensible and he aroused
great admiration and enthusiasm. I'm
like his predecessors in speech making
here he INDUCED in no cute stories, but
trusted to his reasoning powers and
candid, straightforward arguments to
sustain his position. He far exceeded
in every way the opinions that had
been formed of him. DR.. Robertson is
by far the best speaker who has yet
spoken here. He was followed by Hon.
Charles Canning, candidate for con-
gress in the Fifth district. Mr.. Canning
assisted very materially in making the
meeting very successful one. His AZ
guments were well sustained and

SAVANNAH, Ga, Oct. 9.-At a meet
ing held this afternoon, at which every
department of the daily and weekly
press of this city was represented, it
was resolved to raise fund by appealing
to the press of the country for the
family of the late managing editor of
the Jacksonville TimeS-UniOn, Edwar
Martin, who died there of yellow fever
Sunday. For several years Mr.. Martin
was connected with the press of
Savannah. He was practical printer
and for sixteen years was an active
worker on the daily and weekly papers
of the south. Owing to the disOrganiZa-
ton of his staff, by fever, the work of
making up the dispatches for the two
press associations largely devolved on
him, thus in great part the press of
the country and the reading public
were indebted to him for the daily news
of the epidemic. He left large family
unprovided for. Contributions from
all departments of the newspapers are
requested payable to J. II. Estill, chair
man of the Edward Martin memorial
fund committee, Savannah, Ga. Over

NlARY'S AGED LAMB.

Mary had an infant lamb,
Its fleece was white as tow.
And queer enough, she did't want
The lite beast 10 grow.
She always said it was too young
That nothing could be worse
Than to deprive it of the hand
Or bottle of its nurse.
1t must be nourished night and day,
And watched at any cost,
Lest some one lead its steps astray
Or otherwise get lost.
Thus it was coddled, fed GU pap,
And-since no longer small
The wonder was it had q chance
TO live or thrive at all.
But yet, in spite of pains to pet,
SO swiftly grew the lamb,
In course of time it almost beat
The famous Derby ram.
And what it was for size all know
1t stood so very high
The eagles nested in its wool
Some miles beyond the sky.
So Mary's sheep was little less;
Its tail and horns were curled,
And altogether it was fit
To butt against the world.
Yet, baby-Iike, the maiden cried
When any one would say
Twas big enough to go alone
And pay well by the way.
And thus the very children laughed
That such grown-up ram
Should be tied round with Tariff strings
And sucked like lamb.

trict OLE X. LARSON, of FosSton, was unan
imously nominated for the legislature, and

night, after the convention, Hon. CHARLES
D'AUTREMONT and ID. b. JOHNSON spoke to
an immense crowd at the opera house. Mr.
D'AUTREMoNTs speech was confined solely

Mr.. MERRIAM's DOODLE record in the most ap-

Enthusiastically received, and the good seed
sown will bring forth much fruit.
The community will hail this evil

the part of our contemporary as a long
step out of the rut of partisan politics.
Even if the correspondent at CrOOkston
