Language is hardly strong enough to express my admiration of the merits of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. IL is the best remedy for croup and whooping cough I have ever used.

The Statesman's Son Fans a Locomotive Fire
with q Shovel.
Bangor (Me.l Special to New york Herald.

Bangor (Me.) Special to New York Herald.
On the locomotive of the fast express
train from Bar HarbOr, which rolled into
this city at twenty minutes past l this
afternoon, there was new fireman. Ordi-
narlly that fact would never be known
around the depot, but somehow in this case
it was noised about coupled with the in
formation that this fireman was none other
than James G. Blaine. jr.
Young Blaine stood looking from the cab,
with his hand energetically manipulating
the bell-rOpe as the train came in. He wore
a coarse suit of blue drilling consisting of
a Jumper and OverallS, such as are COM
monty worn by locomotive firemen. and his
clothes were covered with oil and dirt His
usually delicate complexion was no longer
to be seen, and his face was covered with a
coating of coal dust and perspiration. His
hands were also begrimed and badly bis
tered.
AS soon as his locomotive was in the
round-house young Blaine went to the
bathrooms used in common by the railroad
labOrers of all grades. washed the dirt from
his face and hands, and soon appeared in a
blue blouse. buttOned closely up in the
neck, light corduroy trousers. and black
derby hat. Then he entered the gentlemen's
waiting room at the depot. where ordinary
railroad employees are not allowed, read and
smoked cigarettes until o'clock, when he
went out and donned his working suit, and
at palf-past he was on his way out of the
1t was tough experience for the young
man, the thermometer was indicating one
of the hottest days of the season, and
when policeman, who was in the crowd,
which was taking in every movement of the
new employee, asked young Blaine how he
liked flaming fire with a shovel" he re-
piled that it was all right when the weather
was not so hot.
The express makes fast time and uses
steam very rapidly, so another fireman was
placed in the cab to help Blaine.
The engineer of the train is Thomas
Nancy, one of the youngest on the road,
and he is expected to impart no end of val
liable information to his new understrap-
per. 1t is but few weeks ago when Jimmy
Blaine was given position in the extensive
machine-shops of the Maine Central at
Waterville, and placed under the instruc-
ton of the master mechanic. He asses his
nights in Stainwood. the elegant summer
residence at Bar Harbor, where the family
is living in superb style this summer.

VIRGINIA LAND SINKING.

Four Acres Settle Forty Feet i'm Three Days.
Norkfolk Cva.) Landmark.
A Landmark representative called on
Mr.. George p. Calling, the druggist who
owns a farm adjoining his fathers. and who
now uses his fathers farm forraising stock,
to ask him what he had heard of the won
derful depression in things in Prince
George. He showed us a letter from his
father, dated July IL, in which the fol-
lowing reference is made to the phenOm-
enon:
You have doubtless heard of the phenomenal
occurrences here lately. You know the shape of
the hillside from the big pine tree on the river
around by the two oaks In front or the house,
Mnnt on TO t4a P6nt OF tae pg oaR ns On
scribes the shape of a crescent. Well, every
particle of the inclined hillside has settled per-
pendicularly forty feet all the way between the.
points named. 1t was not land slide, but
settling, the trees remaining upright as before.
There were ide assures in the little field below,
aud south. You never saw anyone so astOnished
as Ed was In your life. In some respects it may
be an Improvement 1t was settling down for
three days. Afectionately, your father,
e. W. GATLING.
Mr.. Calling says the area of the sunken
land cannot be over four acres, and that
the change is not regarded by the owners
as disadvantage. His brother has already
lars the space between the house and the
river can now be graded and terraced so as
to make the place more attractive than
ever. There is not the slightest alarm
felt by the occupants of the homestead,
and there is a perfectly natural rea-
son for the apparently mysterious
sinking. From what MIR. Calling says
the river makes a sharp angle at his farm.
being detected by the obstruction offered
by this very hillside. The recent floods
have caused the river to burrOw under with
more than ordinary rapidity, seeking a
straight course, and the consequence is
that the hillside is undermined, the dirt be-
ing thrown aside forming n shoal which is
referred to as the most extraordinary
phase of the thing. The volcanic manifest
alton was probably the first breach made
in the earth by the influence of the mining
current. Although 200 bushels of sweet
potatoes We're raised last year on this now
descended ground, the value of the farm
is not thought to be impaired. as Mr. Cat
ling Is engaged IN the extensive cultivation
OF geese this year instead of potatoes. and
IL necessary he can corral his geese in this
deep hole and make them safe and comfort
able.
Later advices received through Mr. Cat
ling are To the effect that while the sinking
Is unusual in extent it is not unprecedented
IN that locality and along the river, and no
Importance Is attached TO it.

large number OF the friends of DR.. j.

the deceased the last sad tribute of
respect and affection. 1t also bore the
remains of the Doctor, which were ex-

room of the station for the inspection OF
those who desired to take last look
upon the lineaments of their deceased
friend. His countenance was natural
and peaceful. After his immediate
family had looked their last upon his
features, expressive even in death, the
casket was closed, and the solemn
funeral rites of the Catholic church, with
accompaniment Of High Mass, were per-
formed in the Old Mission San Gabriel
church. A most impressive address was
delivered by DR.. Meyer, of the Uni
versity, who incidentally mentioned the
fact that he had prepared DR.. Shorb's
mother for death in Baltimore some
years ago.
The Mission church was crowded to its
utmost capacity and the floral offerings
were rich and abundant. The following
gentlemen officiated as pall-bearers :
Hon. s. M. White. Col. George H. Smith,
Judge Erskine M. Ross, Gen. 4. E.
