Carbondale, Pa, Oct. 25.-This Sec
ton of the state has had very little
rain for many weeks. and as result
a severe water famine is being SUI
fersd. At Olyphant, six miles below
mains and the electric light station and
several coal collieries have been shut
down because of the scarcity Of wa
ter. The Ontario and Western rail-
road Is running water trains composed
Of old locomotives and oil tank cars
from Belmont to Olyphant, a distance
OF rs miles, in order to give water for
drinking purposes and to keep the To-
comotives going. In several sections
of the county forest fires are burning,
endangering houses and coal breakers,
and the fires cannot be quenched be-
cause of the lack of water. At Jermyn
the flames crept to within a few rods
of the Moosic Powder company's plant,
and were there checked after much
trouble. At this place the flames came
within 20 feet of the large Klotz silk
mill, which employs about 1000 per-
sons. At Forest City, five miles above
here, two houses on the outskirts of
the town were destroyed. The fire on
the mountain extends from Forest
City, in Susquehanna county, south to
Olyphant, in this county, distance of
II miles. Much valuable timber has
been DESTROYED.
