Interest is awakening in the great
Buffalo free trip cmteSt and 1t Is
practically certain that the TELE.
GRAM will send about IA people at It's
own expense. There are now four
candidates who have not sent In GER
tiHcateS which they nave out and they
are making a great mistake by not
sending them in for nothing succeeds
like success" and it is the greatest
point OF the game to keep at the top
There is still Il good opportunity for
anyone who has not yet entered to do
SO, but the time is very short and the
work done now will count. The

Births After Burial of Mothers
London Chronicle.
The Eari of Mount Edocumbe

The Earl of Mount Edgcumbe,
who has just been sworn of the
prlvy council, may dbe literally
said to owe his exeistence and his
position "to the accldent of an
accident An ancestress of his
had the i'll luck to be buried while
she was In trance. But by good
luck some Of her jewels were
buried with her. a dependent,
Intended to rifle the dead fingers,
visited the tomb and became the
urwitting ljberator of the i'm
prisoned lady. She returned to
life and four years later gave
birth to a son, who was a pro-
genitor of the present peer. That,
ut any rate, is the local legend
down in DevOnshire, where Mount
Edgecumbe stands, green and
wooded, opposite to Devoushire
spot on which the admiralty
keeps always an envious eye.
This recalls the case of Eben-
ezer Erskine, one of the founders
OF the United Presbyterian church
of Scotland, who was born after
the burial of his mother. Mrs.
Erskine was buried in trance,
and on one of her fingers was a
valuable ring. The gravedigger
knew of this, opened the coffin
and was in the act of cutting off
the ring-bearing finger when Mrs.
Erskine awoke with a cry. She
rose, walked home and went up
stairs without having encountered
any of her family. The footsteps
overhead caused her husband to
remark: elf | didna ken nv
wife was lynn in the kirkyaird |
wad say that wis her ftstep. "
Mrs. Erskins lived to become the
mother of EbeneZer.

Nineteen Oil Wells. RI

Beaumont, Texas, Sept. l.
During the week just closed nine
gushers were brought in. This is
decidedly the biggest week in the
history of the fields. During the
month 10 spouting wells were
completed. Several miles of pipe
line have been lnid, dozes large
storage tanks, having a capacity
of 3s, 500 gallons to $4,000 gal
Ions have been contracted for and
several of them are now under
course of construction. On the
whole, the month just closed has
witnessed a development in this
field that Is marvellous. The work
had its tragic side in the four
deaths resulting from the break
ing loose of one of the gushers,
Forty>four gushers have been
completed. The daily shipments
now average IS cars.

ASTOUNDED THE
EDITOR

Editor S. A. Brown, of Ben
nettsvllle, s. c., was once i'm
men>ely surprised. "Through
long suffering from Dyspepsia, "
he writes, "my wife was greatly
run down. She had no strength
or vigor and suffered great dis
tress from her stomach, but she
tried Electric Bitters which helped
her at once, and, after using four
bottles, she is entirely we'll, can
eat anything. It's grand tonic,
and its gentle laxative qulities
are splendid for torpid liver"
For Indigestion, Loss of Appetite,
Stomach and Liver troubles it's
a positive, guaranteed cure. Only

A Raging Flood in Cleveland.
OHIO.

Cleveland, o., Sept. l. With
the. breaking of dawn this morns
ing the citizens of Cleveland awoke
% look upon a scene of unparal-
leled devastation and destruction
caused by raging food. While
the entire city was more or less
affected, the great volume of ray-
lug water vented it's anger over
miles of tho eastern portion of the
city and caused an amount of
damage npproximated at $1,000. :
600.
The appalling overflow was
caused by Il terrific rain that COM
menced to fall shortly after Q
O'Clock. 1t tn ned into perfect
cloud burst between the hours of
3 and 5 and then continued with
great force until nearly 10 o'clock.
The storm, according to the wealth
er officials was the heaviest that
ever swept over Cleveland since
the establishment of the govern
ment of the government bureau
IN this city over forty years ago.
That no lives were lost is moth
ing short of a miracle as stories of
thrilling escapes from the water
on several of the principal resi-
dent streets of the city are told.
The surging waters spread over
an area i'm the east end nearly 8
miles long and mile and half
wide.
