Torrent of Rains,

1OTICnt Vi 1ldlnSs
ELM1RA, n. Y, Sept. 1O.-Nearly
three inches of rain has fallen here in
twenty four hours, and the water, in
creased by the streams above, has
raised the Chemung river to the
danger line. The lower parts
of the city are under water,
and much damage is apprehended.
The railroads are experiencing a great
deal of trouble. The Delaware, Lacka-
wanna q Western is not running any
trains owing to the high water at Ka-
mona. The Erie road is blocked by land
slides and washouts at Addison and
Hornellsville. There is also some trouble
on that road at North Elmira. No trains
have gone west or come in from that
direction since daylight this morning.
The Northern Central road has bridge
and long piece of track washed
out at Watkins, where the
water from Watkins Glen comes
down in destructive force. Several
bridges and number of stairways were
washed ont of Watkins Glen. The Ad-
Olson q Pennsylvania road had trestle
washed out near Addison this after
noon, and the road is blocked. The
Erie is blocked at Wellsville, where the
rain has washed out the tracks, as we'll
as those of the Bradford, Eldred & Cuba
road and the Wellsville & Coudersport
line. Exhibitors are removing cattle
and goods from the Interstate fair
grounds here tonight in anticipation
of the flood,

Canacanea creek was overlooking as
was the river. The fire department
was called out and did good work in
securing bridges and buildings. The
Erie is completely tied up, no through
trains running past this city since
midnight, when train five went

that has been stopping at Andover
all day unable to get either way. Three
through trains have been lying at this
city all day. Another train is at Addi-
son and fifth at Cameron. with no
prospect of an opening before morning.
1t is now raining heavily and the
streams are rapidly rising again, and
unless it stops within an hour disastrous
results will follow. Advices from Can
isteo report that village completely
under water and at the mercy of the
stream.

Bank.

BAY CITY, Mich, Sept. 1O.-A few
minutes before noon to-day. three men
entered the Second National bank. and
two of them went to the teller and book

package of bills amounting to S5,400,
which was ready for shipment up the
shore. After the departure of the trio
the robbery was discovered, and the

Curious Notices.

Notes and queries.
At Scalby, near Scarborough. there is
notice which reads, "Stick no Bills.
One pound reward if found out" The
question arises, who can claim ske re-
ward? Can it be claimed o. by per-
son who sticks bills; (2) by person
who sticks no bills; 81 or by the person
who finds another person out in the act
of not sticking bills? l am inclined to
favor the last solution, but own that
it admits of argument.
At Bailydown, in County Down,
might be seen some time ago the notice:

WAS IT VOLCANIC?
Ten Acres of Hoosierdom All
Broken Up.
THE NATURA, GAS GIANTS WORK.

Terrific Explosion Tears Up the Earth
and Exposing Dead Mems Bones-The
shock Followed by Lurid Flames,
Which Burst from the Waters OF the
River and other Points.
SHELBYvILLE, Ind, Aug. i2.--Yesterday
morning at q O'Clock q terrific explosion
occurred near Ogden's graveyard, three
miles south of Waldron, this Shelby
county, causing great excitement through
out the county. Ten acres of land We're
blown to pieces. One acre was de-
molished to the depth of ten feet: The
river fat rock was blown up and large
stones were thrown fully half u mile from
the scene. The gas is burning fifteen feet
high from the center of the river and from
fifty or more points of the land torn up
The whole country is in excitement, and
no means are known by which the flow OF
burning gas may be stopped.
What an Eyewitness Saw.
j. II. Lowe, who lives on the farm
where the explosion occurred. says that he
heard a terrific report and felt the earth
quivering beneath his feet. He went to-
ward the graveyard and was soon con-
fronted by sheet of fame 200 feet high
Then fifty or more fountains of fire burst
from the earth These were interspersed
with six or eight active geysers. The
river bed was torn to pieces and the huge
assures were receiving the rivers water.
Sheets of fame swept over the water and
a crater covering an area of about one
acre was quickly converted into huge
hole, from which continuous roaring
and rumbling noise proceeds.
Bodies of the Dead Exposed.
Within the bend of the river and for
one-eighth of mile along the stream
great rents are in the earth and the river
bed. At the bend of the river in the bank,
which is of limestone, is a fracture a quar-
ter of a mile long. Stones the size of a
house have been hurled from their places.
The graveyard was shaken up, the skele-
tons of the dead being distinctly seen in
the fractures of the earth. Gas flows free
ly from the entire surface of the ten acres.
Was the Upheaval Volcanic?
Many theories have been advanced as to
the cause of the upheaval. Many people
contend that it WAS spontaneous COM
bustion of natural gas. Others think
that the upheaval was volcanic. Mr..
Lowe, who got TO the scene before the gas
ignited, is sure that the upheaval WAS vol
canic. The inhabitants in the locality be-
came wild with excitement, and many
left their homes. Within the last eighteen
months there have been thirteen gas wells
sunk in the locality of the gravey ard, and
while each has had some gas none have
been gushers

Keciprocity ~ a Sop.


Two years ago the national convention
of protected mill owners and railroad at
torneys that nominated Benjamin Har
rison for president declared that rather
than surrender any part of the protective
system the taxes on whisky and tobacco
should be repealed. The Chicago Herald
says that immortal pronouncement
shocked the country, but in spite of it.
and with the aid of an enormous corrup.
ton fund, the candidates who stood upon
1t were elected, and are now in office.
The monopoly platform of 1888 went
100 far. 1t was the Indiscreet work of
men who believed the people to be ignor
ant, and who, for the first time under the
protective system were daring enough to
throw of all disguise and avow them>
selves open and defiant advocates of pri
vilege and monopoly. Many of these
politicians have since seen their mistake,
and under the leadership of Mr.. Blaine,
as clever leader of corporate and capi-
talistic greed as the world ever saw, they
are now vociferously advocating the
quack remedy of reciprocity as cure all
for the manifold evils that bear so heavily
upon the people of this country.
As urged by the masquerading agents
of the protected barons. reciprocity is the
veriest h1mbug. and the superficial argu.
ments with which II is sustained are of so
little consequence that no one OF intelli-
gence should be deceived by them for
minute. The whole scheme is tub to
the whale and nothing more. II is in
tended to divert the people, to make
them believe that something is really to
be done in their behalf. and to intrench
still more impregDably behind the barri>
ers of privilege and monopoly the favored
interests that have grown powerful on
plunder of the people.
Every utterance of these new converts
to reciprocity during the last twenty
years shows them to be enemies of free
and unfettered commerce. They do not
now favor reciprocity in quarters where
1t would be of service to the people an in
furious to the monopolists who keep them
in place. They have selected the poorest
markets on earth with which to establish
reciprocal trade, and they ignore wholly
all those markets in which so large a por-
tion of the agricultural produce of this
country must find purchasers. How not
to do it is their motto. To fool the peo-
pie is their aim.
Frightened politicians and bysterical
editors who have seen and perhaps felt
the wrath of the people are hurrying
hither and thither in agony and appre-
hension urging. begging. threatening, in
behalf of the foolish reciprocity fad. as
though that alone were sufficient to
placate the plundered masses, but the
average republican congressman's face is
turned toward the tariff god and he sees
and hears them not The spectacle is
amusing and in some respects pitiful, yet
1t can deceive no one who is capable of
distinguishing between right and wrong.
1t ia errors last ditch. Wrong offers a
sop to the right. With courage and per-
severance justice must soon triumph all
along the line.
