tanned Tuesday for tho Safety of ths
Fairbanks Scale Works.

ST. JOHNsBuRY, June 2S.-The heavy
and continuous rain last night raised the
river to great height, and damaged ths
railroads and highways and swept away
bridges. Nc trains had left or arrived al
st. Johnsbury since midnight up to D. M.
to-day. There is q washout on the Passump-
sic road and the railroad bridge is gone near
West Burke. At West Concord, on tho ST.
Johnsbury and Lake ChGmpain railroad,
freight train derailed, although little
damage was done.
Sleepcrs river rose in few houts to the
highest point ever known. The Fairbanks
scale factory is located on this stream, and
for few hours carly this morning It was
feared that great damage would DO DONE
The railway bridge is washed away here,
and the bridge between tue foundry and the
machine shops. Both bridges are lodged in
the river, and will soon be replaced on their
original foundations. The Fairbanks com
pany estimate their loss ut $1,000. 1t is the
greatest fresh ct in this vicinity since 1869.

college choir rendered Gounod's " Unfold
Ye Portals Everlasting" in an excellent
manner. Rev. DR.. w. S. Roberts, pastor
Of the First Baptist church, offered prayer
and George f. Pitkin, president of the
college Y NJ. G. A. read selection of Scrip
ture. He then introduced Bishop Foss as one
who was much interested in college work.
Bishop Foss took for his theme the four GER
tainties in our religion--God in Christ and
salvation in immortality. He said that the
first fundamental truth OF all religion is a
personal God The second mountain peak
in our religion is Christ. In our world zach
part belongs to some other part, and every
thing is dependent on something else. That
Christ once lived on tine earth is us appar-
ent to every thinker as is the
fact that George Washington lived.
Who is this historic Christ, and
what is His character and what is His
place? We cannot answer all these things
in one short half hour, but we can say that
He hos outlived the grave. Napoleon the
Little, Voltaire and all others who announc-
ed their purposes with such flourish are
now we'll nigh forgotten in their graves A
third religious certainty is salvation, saliva
tion by Christ. A fourth mountain peak in
our religious doctrine is the resur-
rection--inmortality. Ibo instinct OF
Immortality is a part of the human soul.
The truths of Immortality exist only in the
twilight in the Old Testament. Tnay are
brought to the full light in the gospels DR..
Foss compared this belief in Immortality to
the thoughts OF a mau born ard brought up
away from any body Of water and who had
never soen or heard of ship as he entered
n ship-yard for the first time. The ship in
process of construction would seem
to him to be very queer sort
OF house But as he looked it
over he would make up his mind that the
ship was not built to stay there, but was tc
90 ont on the sea beyond.
Speaking to the mombers of the Y. NJ
c. A.. DR.. Foss said: "lne fear of the Lord
is the beginning Of wisdom and in joining
this Youug MEMS Christian Association you
have shown that you believe in the truth OF

! In tie h.Hse tho telegrams sent out by
