TIA town of Ko omea, in Gaicia, Austria,
of the river Prath. Many houses were de-
stroyed, and the railroad bridge between
Kolomea and Turka was swept away. The
collapse took place while train was cross
ing, and it is believed that many were
drowned. There were five railway car
riages and they fell in great heap together.
There is no definite report as to the number
of passengers. A terrible storm Of hail,
thunder and lightning was raging at the
time and added TO the horror of the scene.
The river had risen twenty-one feet above
its normal level. Seven officials. including
the postal staff at Mailvan, were drowned.
The distress at Kolomea is terrible. Hun
dreds are homeless, their homes having
been carried away with the rush of the
waters. The government has ordered the
soldiery to assist the inhabitants in the eff
fort to save their property.

most widely known men in the state was
cured of rheumatism after three years of
suffering. He says: 81 have not sufficient
command OF language to convey any idea of
what suffered, my physicians told me that
nothing could be done for me and my friends
were fully convinced that nothing but death
would relieve me of my suffering. In June,
1894, Mr.. Evens. then salesman for the
Wheeling Drug Co., recommended Cham
berain's Pain Balm. At this time my foot
and limb were swollen to more than double
their normal size and 1t seemed to me my leg
would burst, but soon after began using
the Pain Balm the swelling began to de-
crease, the pain to leave, and now l con-
slider that l am entirely cured. For sale by

COLONEL AGUILERAs, with a column of
troops, acting in conjunction with the local
guerilla force and the garrison OF Madrugo
was engaged last Friday with an insurgent
force, under the leadership of Aranguron,
which was entrenched in the Sierra De
Grille near Madrugo in that province. The
Spanish troops successfully dislodged the
insurgents from all the positions occupied
by the latter, until the enemy reached Abro
Del Cafe, where the insurgents made de-
termined stand. Eventually the insurgents
were also dislodged from that place, and
the Spanish troops destroyed the enemy's
camp. The fighting lasted from three
O'Clock in the afternoon until seven o'clock
at night. The insurgents in retreating left
ten men killed on the field, and the govern
ment force lost one lieutenant and fifteen
soldiers killed and had one major, one cap.
tain and 1873 soldiers wounded.
