Spring Freshets Causing Much De-
struction 81 New England


BosToN, April 16.-No Northern New
England is inundated and the rivers
and streams are mad torrents.
Great damage has resulted to the ]um-
her interests, farmers and manufac-
turers, but up to midnight no loss
Of life has been reported. Cum
munication other than by wire is en-
tirely cut of beyond Nashua to the
north and Greenfield to the west.
Miles of railroad tracks are under
water. several score Of bridges are
carried away, vast drives Of logs
swept down and out to sea
and telegraph wires and poles are
down in many valleys. No mails from
points beyond 40 miles OF Boston, save
south, have been received here. All
rivers have been rising rapidly and
in many cases as high as 6 inches
an hour. Several New Hampshire,
Maine and Vermont cities are minia-
ture Venices. Mills have been forced
to shut down, business has been sus-
pended generally, and families re-
moved from their homes in boats to
houses on the high land.
Mills Shut Down.
The Merrimac and Nashua rivers and
Salmon brock are rushing torrents,
necessitating the shutting down of all
mills at Nashua. The big Jackson
mills basement and weaving room
are flooded, and 200 looms had
to be removed. The river is ris-
ing 6 inches an hour, and the
intervals for miles are covered with
water. Many streets in Keene are
flooded and score of houses are ac-
cessible only by boats. No trains are
run, as miles Of roadbed have been
washed away.
At Lawrence there is q mad flood and
over 1000 operatives were thrown out
of employment by stoppage of mills
because of back water. In the Deer
field valley all mills have shut down
and much damage to property at
Turner's Falls has resulted.
Still Doing Damage.
BosroN, April 17.Reports of damage
by floods in northern New England
continue. More than 20 miles of
railroad in the Pemigewasset valley,
New Hampshire, are washed away,
and it will be month before
trains are running again. Both the
Boston & Maine and the Concord
& Montreal will lose upwards of
5000, 900 each. Fourteen bridges over
Passumpsic river alone have been car
ried away. At Bellows Falls William
Burke fell. from a bridge and was
drowned, and s. N. Alexander, Jr.,
and James Fitzgerald attempted to
rescue woman from a partially sub
merged building when their boat, was
overturned and both persisted.
At Concord, n. H., fifty families are
homeless, and at Haverhill, Mass, the
shoe shops are all shut down, the bust
ness part of the city being practically
under water. Fully 10000 operatives
are out of work. In Nashua, N. H.,
nearly all business is stopped, all rail
roads tied up and telephone and tele-
graph service suspended.

"TAKEN IN"

"Y used often to read the newspaper aloud
to my wife, !" said Bert Robinson, and once
Twas fairly taken in by patent medicine
advertisement. The seductive paragraph
began with modest account of the sea-
serpent, but ended by setting forth the vir-
tues of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov-
cry, which, 1t was alleged, was a cure for
ali Bronchial, Throat and Lung troubles,
and would even cure Consumption, if taken
in time The way was taken in was this !:
l had lung disease, and bought bottle
of the remedy; was stranger to it, and 1t
took me inland cured me-" Robinsons
experience is identical with that of thou
sands of others So true is this, that after
witnessing, for many years, the marvellous
cures of Bronchial, Throat apA Lung affec-
tons wrought by this wonderful remedy,
its manufacturers feel warrarted in say
ing that this remedy aOiH cure 90 per
cent. of all cases of consumption, if taken
in the earlier stages of the disease This
may seem like bold assertion to those
familiar only with the means generally in
use for its treatment; as, nasty cod liver oil
and its filthy emulsions, extract of malt
whiskey, different preparations of hypo-
phosphites and such like balhafiues.
The photographs of large number of
those cured Of consumption bronchitis, lin
gering coughs, asthma, chronic nasal catarrh
and kindred maladies, have been skillfully
reproduced in book of 1000 pages which
will be mailed to you, on receipt of address
and II cents in stamps. You can then write
those cured and learn their experience.

EARLY use of Gunpouder.

War destroys, and at the same time is
the incentive for the creation of new
things. War and iron are inseparably
linked together. The discovery Of gun
powder caused complete revolution in
the manufacture Of iron. The mixing Of
sulphur, saltpeter and coal as q toy had
been known for long time. Hence, to
speak Of the discovery Of gunpowder in
the fourteenth century only refers to
the application Of powder during that
century for the purposes of war. To
credit the Monk Bertold Schwarz, or
Black, with the discovery Of gunpowder
is incorrect. However, his investiga-
tions into the nature Of powder and its
constituents for use as an applicable
force in guns produced radical change
in the then customary warfare, and
from that standpoint Bertold Schwarz
deserves to be recognized as the pro-
moter of modern warfare.
Hundreds Of years before Schwarz's
time the Chinese used gunpowder.
The invention Of field guns is credited
to the Chinese Emperor vitey, or Wut-i,
who lived 140 years before Christ. Dur
ing the eleventh century the Tartars
learned the use Of gunpowder from the
Chinese. The Arabs acquired the knowl-
edge Of gunpowder from the Tartars
and are said to have used cannon at the
siege Of Lisbon in 1147. The Greek fire
was invented in 868 A. D., and besides
setting fire to the enemies ships and
cities was used to shoot leaden balls
out Of metal cannon. Marcus GRACIOUS,
who lived A. D. 1204-l281, describes
gunpowder as mixture Of two pounds
Of coal, pound Of sulphur and six
pounds Of saltpeter. Iron Age.

THE STRAYED REVELER.
As she fees up the mountain side

AS she fees up the mountain side
The valley is astir
With gay companions racing wide
In vain pursuit Of her.
In every tangled copse they seem
To see her streaming hair,
And where the wild white lilies CLEAN
Her face lily there.
But, laughing hand to side to still
The beating of her heart.
Tiptoe upon the lonely hill
She stands, with lips apart.
The gay rout passes, and there falls
A silence in the place.
Again the cuckoo softly calls,
The watchful squirrels race.
Then, like sigh among the trees,
A wind is softly heard,
And, like D leaf blown down the breeze,
There darts a songless bird.
For one swift moment then she slips
Into world apart.
She thinks Of mold upon her lips
And dust about her heart.
Frank Tooker in Century.
