FRIDAY EVENING. JUNE 10. 1896

RATS FLEE FROM CUMBERLAND
Work was yesterday suspended in q
number of the mines in the Georges
c eek, Nd, region, owing to the re-
cent heavy rains, which have flooded
many of the "rooms."
Tnere is prediction there that Cum
berlind will shortly be visited by high
water. 1t arises from the fact that rats
ara leaving the cellars in droves and
fleeing to the mountains. 1t is claimed
that these rodents are posted in such
matters, and that they are taking time
by the forelock in order to get out of
the wet. People who have occasion to
be up until after midnight say that for
several days they have seen rats in
droves leaving the city. People going
to market state that as they near the
outskirts of the town the roads are al.
most alive with rats, and that they
seem headed for the mountains.
Among the more ignorant grave super.
stitions have been aroused.

If it required an annual outlay of
$4,000 to insure family against any
serious consequences from an attack of
bowel complaint during the year there
are many who would feel it their duty
to pay it; that they could not afford to
risk their lives, and those of their fami-
ly for such an amount. Any one can
get this insurance for Is cents, that be-
ing the price of bottle of Chamber
lain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoen
Remedy. In almost every neighbor-
hood some one has died from an attack
of bowel complaint before medicine
could be procured or physician sum-
moned. One or two doses of this
remedy will cure any ordinary case.
1t never fails. Can you afford to take
the risk for so small an amount? For

Railway Incident.

Professor Lincoln of Brown university,
who died few years ago, used often 10 10.
late with glec a railroad adventure which
he had in Germany during his last Euro
pcan tour. The party was travelling In one
of the little German railway carriages with
tho doors at tho sides, when the train
stopped ut u station whcro there was a res
taurant.
They were told that the train would
wait few minutes, and SO, with Amcri-
can Independence, Professor Lincoln and
another mcmber Of the party stepped out,
crossed another track and proceeded to the
station.
This infraction of German regulations
wos ut first unnoticed, but on the return
on obstacle was found in the shape OF an
other train between them and their car.
The various railway personages appeared
stolidly Ignorant as to time tables. The
train was too long to 60 around, the cars
were unprovided with our convenient end
platforms and steps and the space beneath
them was mono too ample for "A cat to go
under. Only ono course romained-that
was TO go over the train.
This seemed q simple matter, as the
German cars nro very small affairs com
pared with our own, and, moreover, aro
provided with q convenient ladder on each
side for the use of tho man who climbs up
and puts tho lamps down through hole
in the roof.
Accordingly tho start was made, and the
feat was about half accomplished before 1t
was noticed by the railway officials. Then
began great connection, with violent
gcsticulations and commands to come
down.
But by dint of Professor Lincoln's vo-
alterations in German TO the officials to
the effect that coming down on tho farther
side was just as well rs to return TO the
station and of soto voce hints in New
England vernacular to his comrade TO keep
ON going, tho retreat was successfully COW
cred and the railway carriage safely gained
