On the Railroads.
Railroad communications to the south
this week have been maintained with some
degree of regularity, but no trains came
through from the north Tuesday. The
11:10 train started from here Tuesday
morning, Superintendent Sampson being
one of those on board. The tracks between
here and Bellows Fails were overflowed in
four places to a depth of from one foot to
two feet. The train had to proceed with
great caution. The Putney and Westmin-
ster meadows We're completely covered with
water, looking much like a great lake, and
farm buildings were surrounded. At Bel
lows Falls the train was stopped south of
the tunnel. One train came through from
Bellows Falls Wednerday forenoon. The
first mail train since Sunday from Bellows
Falls arrived Wednesday noon. Yesterday,
for the first time, the trains ran near to
schedule.
The water which set back from the Con-
necticut inundated the Brattleboro IL
Whitehall railroad at several places on the
Bradley meadow and caused bad washouts.
Passengers were carried about a mile
around the break in teams on Monday,
Tuesday and Wednesday.
People living on the island came to the
village to stay Sunday night. Mr.. Moody

shaking the bridge from end to end.

Eight Months of Tarln Reform.

The summary of imports and exports
for the month of February, which has just
been printed by the bureau of statistics
of the treasury department, shows that
the total value OF dutiable imports during
the eight months ended Feb 2S, 1898, in
creased S45, 1852, ia as compared with the
corresponding period of the previous year
In the same period there was decrease
amounting to S74,311 ,62O in the total value
of exports as compared with the previous
year. In round figures some of the more
important items of increase were: Manu-
factures of cotton, S6,000,000; wooden
goods, S6,000,000; leaf tobacco, S4,000,-
600; silk and manufactures of silk, S10,-
100000; hides and skins, other than fur
skins, SO, 900; linseed or flaXseed, 81
100000; manufactures of hemp, fax, jute,
ETC., $4,000, 900. From another set of fig
ures it is learned that in the first four
months under the new tariff Cuba took
from the United States y, ,995 sacks of
flour, against 105, ,045 sacks in the CORE
spending four months of 1898. This is
what the revocation of the reciprocity
treaty has cost one industry in the United
States, that of the wheat-growers and
four-millers of the Northwest. Taken
all in all the free-tradars ought to be rea-
sonably well satisfied with the breach
which they have made, for beginning, in

The Rise in Kerosene oil.

The sharp advance which has taken
place in the price of kerosene oil began
two weeks ago with an advance of one
cent a gallon. In a day or two another
cent was added to the price, and since
then there has been another jump of two
cents; yesterday there was another ad-
vance of cent making five cents a gallon
in all, or upward of $3.50 a barrel. The
price of crude oil has doubled. 1t is not
entirely clear wheather this sudden rise is
due to an actual shortage in the natural
supply from the oil fields, or to manipu-
lation of the market by the Standard Oil
company, or in part to both causes. II is
claimed that many of the wells show signs
of exhaustion land that consumption is
now exceeding production by 10000
barrels a day. The situation has caused
feverish excitement in the oil-producine
territory which is filled with prospectors
who hope to make lucky strike. Hun
dreds.:of new wells are being drilled and
old ones torpedoed to increase their flow.

was at their doors. On the Vernon road,
not far from Thomas Judges house, the
water was four to five feet deep.
The meadows south of the village were
like a great inland sea, the water spreading
out over both sides of the railroad. North
of the Brooks place, now owned by E. H.
Putnam and occupied by VIM. Ashton,
the water came within a foot of the rails.
The roadbed is largely of sand and the dan
ger seemed very great. Watchmen were
stationed through Monday and Tuesday
nights along the track from this point to
Broad Brook, and also at the Slate Rock
landing where the washout had previously
occurred On the Brooks place east of the
track the water came to the tops of the APP
pie trees. At Col. John Hunts the cellar
was filled and the horses and cattle were
moved to the Valley Fair ground. Col.
Hunt feared that the water would break
through the railroad embankment, as it
did in '62. The live stock at the Brooks
place had to be removed to place of safety.
A young man employed by Mr.. Ashton
had a narrow escane from drowning by
being carried down stream when he swan
from the buildings to the track.
The water set back at the mouth of the
Milestone brook and flooded the basement
of the Electric light plant. Tin basins

sweden and Norway.

The trouble which now agitates Sweden
and Norway and threatens the peace of
those countries, is one that could only arise
out of the peculiar relations which exist
between the two kingdoms. Norway and
Sweden are Independent nations that
have agreed to have the same king, and to
give that king supremacy over the foreign
affairs of both. Each country has its own
constitution, its own government, which is
supreme in domestic affairs, its own laws,
parliament church and army and navy,
and manages its own finances. The min
lister for foreign affairs for both kingdoms
is responsible to the Swedish Diet alone.
The entire diplomatic service of both
Kingdoms is therefore under Swedish con-
troll, which is the basis of the complaint
and of the demand of the Norwegian radi-
Gals for separate consuls, separate ENJOYS
and ministers at foreign capitals and for a
separate foreign office at Christiania 1t
amounts to demand for the same indie
pendence in the management of her for
eign affairs that Norway now has in her
domestic matters. The Swedish answer
to these demands is in effect refusal to
grant them on the ground that to do so
would be substantially to abolish the union
between the Kingdoms by destroying an es
sential condition of that union.

Helpless Old China.

The result of the war between Japan
and China has proved that China was
weak beyond the comprehension of man
kind. The essential barbarism of the civ
ilization of the Chinese empire has been
laid bare; its inert helplessness against the
assault of modern warfare has been re-
vealed, 1t is not amazing that Japan's tri-
umph should have been so rapid and COM
plete, now that we know these things.
With theoretical fighting force of 4,0O0,-
600 men China has not had the services of
half million soldiers. and of these the
great majority were wholly unframed in
modern war. What shall we think of a
nation in whose textbooks on war one
finds such teaching as these: "Play sweet
music in order to soothe your enemy into
gentle and slumberous mood" or, "In at
tacking make a great noise and Haunt
every banner in order to create consterna-
tion in the foe?n This sort of war was ac-
tually practiced by the Chinese at the open
ing of hostilities and even later One gen.
eral, left in command of Moukden, report
ed in all seriousness to the war department
at Pekin in December that he had greatly
strengthened the defenses of the city by
placing 1000 lamps on the ramparts which
at night by their great illumination would
carry terror into the souls of an approach
ing foe. And the war department COM
mended him for his care and skill. Under
such conditions conquest becomes a picnic
to any nation organized on modern war
footing.

Under date of last Saturday President
Cleveland addressed a letter on the cur
rency question to a committee of Chicago
citizens who had invited him to attend
public reception in that city and speak on
that topic. The letter makes strong ar
gument for sound currency. Referring
to the insidious attempt to create prejudice
against the sound money advocates by
charging that they belong to the financial
or business classes and are not in sympa-
thy with the common people," Mr.. Cleve-
land says "we are all in business for we all
buy and sell, >" and, if reckless discomfort
and wild experiment should sweep our cur
rency from its safe support those who will
suffer most surely and most defenceessly
will be the poor land the laborer or work
ing man as he sees the money he has re-
ceved from his toll shrink and shrive in
his hand when he tenders it for the neces-
saries to supply his humble home" This
may have familiar and stereotyped sound,
but it is gospel truth nevertheless.

A treaty of peace has been concluded be-
tween Japan and China. The terms men,
toned in the dispatches are the indepen-
dence of Corea; Japan's retention of all
conquered territory and strongholds, ,includ-
ing the sacred city of Moukden and the ma
val strongholds of Port Arthur and Wei
Hai-Wei; the permanent cession of For
mosa; an indemnity of 500, 100000, and
an offensive and defensive alliance be-
tween China and Japan. The indemnity
is smaller than had been anticipated, but
as whole the treaty means complete
triumph for Japan with concession of
all her demands, and a corresponding hui
initiation for China. This result increases
immensely the prestige and Importance Of
Japan among the nations, raises her to
place in the first rank, and virtually estdb-
fishes a new balance of power in the
east.

HOW THE ISLAND LOOKS.
The Damage Not as Great as FeRred---
A Dry House Wrecked.

The Damage Not as Great as Feared---
A Dry House Wrecked.
A late look at the island and the adjaceut
property shows that the damage is not
nearly as eXteT sive as at first supposed.
The water filled the cellars of the houses
on the island, but did not damage even the
first floors. None of the tenants moved
their goods away and they have already re-
turned to housekeeping. Where the gar
den stood near the red houses is now an
excavation several rods in extent and some
three or four feet deep. A timber 30 feet
long was deposited by the water upon one
of the seats at the ball ground. One end
of the so-called grand stand is out of align
ment in consequence of big hole in the
ground. The foundations to j. A. Tay-
lor's barns are all right, but in places the
earth around the foundations is washed
away. The floors of the barns were COW
cred with mud The brewery never saw so
much water before. The foundation of
the building in the rear is badly washed
out. The water in the big depression back
of the brewery is still 20 or more feet deep.
| The bowling alley is set upon posts, so
that the fnely-laid floor was not damaged.
II. w. Sargents dry house just off Little
river bridge is a wreck. The building
was erected at cost of S4O0 and was filled
with 5000 feet of hard and soft wood lum-
Der. The basement was used by Robbins

barbed wire. The dry house stood on post:

~ WOULD RATHER DIE!"

On the third floor of an ordinary lodging
house in the City of Brooklyn was found
the body of lodger, with revolver by his
side and a bullet in his head. In his pocket
was found book in which was written:
81 am tired Of life because am suffering from
consumption. would try to work but 1t is useless
while have no hope OF getting Oetter.'
What commentary on our boasted civil
ization poor wretch, suffering from
what he supposed was an incurable disease,
snuffs out his Pickering life with bullet.
Where did he get the idea that his disease
was incurablep From an old-time theory
which modern investigation has exploded.
Many diseases may be considered incur
able, but that does not make them so.
During the past few years scientists have
discovered, in the tuberculosis germs, the
cause of consumption. Their inyestiga-
tions have found a cure for the malady, in
Ozone and Guaiacol. These agents de-
stroy the germs which produce the disease.
Compounded with pure Cod Liver Oil, they
form Ozomulsion, which is sold by all Drug
gists. This remedy cures consumption and
all lung troubles. 1t first destroys the cause
of disease-the poisonous germs which pro-
duceit-and then restores the patient to per-
feet health. The Ozone and Guaiacol kill the
germs. The Cod Liver Oil provides the flesh
and strength. That is the principle on which
this medicine works. 1t is both rational and
reasonable; and it is doing more for the cure
oflung troubles tA,S aHy Other preparation.

The prospect of relief from drastic cathartics
for persons troubled with constipation is poor
indeed. True they act upon the bowels but this
they do with violence, and their operation tends
to weaken the intestnes, and is prejudicial to the

a regular action of the liver and kidneys. 1t is
an efficient barrier against and remedy for ma

deep into the earth and taking away the
posts. This washout is several rods square.
The stones in G. II. Grants monumental
works were covered with mud, and tools
were rusted, but in a short time everything
will be in prime condition. Mr.. Falcons
barn was filled with water up to the hay
NOV, but is but little the worse for wear.
The east abutment of the Little river
bridge was partly washed out and began to
break away, but it can be easily repaired.
Beyond the Little river bridge Chas. Eb-
bighausens hen house was washed away a
short distance, and his barn tipped over.
The basement floor of his house was filled
two-thirds up to the ceiling and a coating
of mud was left on everything. In Her
man Rhodes house just beyond a similar
condition existed. Mr.. Rhodes barn would
have undoubtedly gone down stream had it
not been chained down. IT is mud here,
there and everywhere on the island.
The Cheshire bridge, seven miles from
Claremont, n. H., connecting that place
with Springfield, Vt, was washed away
Monday. Several bridges near Claremont
were destroyed.
There were many reports of log bOoms
giving away. 1t is said that the boom at
McIndoes Falls, holding 100000 feet,
broke Monday but the logs were stopped at
Newbury. 1t is probable that reports of
logs coming down the upper branches of
the Connecticut were greatly exaggerated.
