MANY ROADS.

Denver, Dec. 13.-Despite the an
nouncement of an on-clad agreement
between the trans Missouri lines
made several weeks ago that freight
rates were to be maintained at all haz-
ards, the closing days of the present
year bid fair to witness the most Wig
orous rate war the west has expert
enced for number of years. Within
the past few days agents of the vari-
Gus trans Missouri carriers have been
quietly cutting rates on car lots and
on Thursday all subterfuge was thrown
to the winds and an open slashing in
augurated by all lines The war is
limited to freight in car load lots
and it is openly conceded that the end
of the week will find agents bidding
for freight ON a twenty-five cent rate
from Chicago.
The regular rate on fifth class
freight which includes in its classifi-
cation practically everything shipped
in carload lots, is eighty seven cents
Rates of forty cents per one hundred
in carload lots were made in Denver
yesterday and it is expected the Gus
tomary restoration of rates will ensue.

into at once, and deeply. Maybe the blood
is clogged with germs that are capable of
producing any of dozen complaints-with
the chance of great suffering, running into
the terminal station known as Death. To
prepare remedy having the power to con-
quer these ills, more surely than the ordin-
AIRY treatment had ever done, was DR..
Kennedy's ambition. Through WEAKNESS
and discouragement he toiled on. He had
his reward at last. AS naturalist comes
upon strange plant in the woods, 80
Dr. David Kennedy one day laid hands on
the ingredient required to make his neto
medicine (the success of the era )-Calcura
Solvent. He rejoiced, yet was humbly
thankful; as man is who knows that while
Paul may plant and Apollos water it is God
who giveth the increase; who leadeth to the
knowledge of the truth. Since then
thousands have been relieved and cured
who were spending their days in pain, with
tho Grim Spectre waiting to deal the
finishing blow. Sufferers from rheuma-
tism, govt, dyspepsia, nervous prostration

FOUND DEAD.

Attorney Frederick Deberville was
found dead in his room in Middlebury
Tuesday afternoon. Mr.. Deberville
had been i'll and under the doctor s
care for a few days past. Monday
evening he called Mr.. Edmund Burke,
brother attorney, into his room and
asked him if he would go and get a
bottle refilled with medicine. Mr.
Burke went over to Dr. Stern's store,
had the bottle refilled, returned to Mr..
Deberville's room, and saw him drink
large portion of its contents, which
proved to be bromidia," strong
drug used to quiet the nerves and to
promote drowsiness, which was pro.
cured on a prescription signed by DR..
e. W. Shipman of Vergennes dated
June 26, 1901.
DR.. Noble, the health officer, was
called and said that life had been ex
tinct for some hours, and was due di
rectly to an overdose of bromidia
His remains will be taken to Burling
ton today for interment.
Mr. Deberville was a brilliant stu
dent, a well-read attorney, and pos
sessed oratorical powers that wert
equalled by few men so young.

THIS RAT RESISTED AN
OFFICER.

In dimly lighted room and armed
with stout club, Officer Tim Hanley
battled with a vicious rat for an hour
and half Thursday night. Hanley
finally killed the rodent, but not un-
til he had been severely bitten about
the hands, and it had lacerated the
arm of Mrs. Martin. AS a result of
her experience, Mrs. Martin lies in
serious condition at her home on
Ninth street, suffering from hysteria
and the effects of the wound infiict-
ed by the teeth of the rat. 1t was
most novel fight that the policeman
ever participated in, and it gives him
cold chills whenever he thinks about
it, which is about all the time,
Mrs. Martin and her daughter
Oracle retired at an early hour Thurs
day night. They occupy room ON
the second floor of the house The
third relief at Central station had just
been dismissed and Officer Hanley
was on his way home when he heard
a piercing scream and calls for help.
The commotion emanated from the
Martin home. The first thought of
the officer was that murder was being
done and he burst open the front
door and ran upstairs to the room
from which the screams issued. TIL
door to the room was unlocked and

Hanley walked in. On the bed stood
Mrs Martin, holding her arm from
which the blood was dripping. A
little girl was perched on top of
dresser. In few words Mrs. Martin
told her story. She said that she had
been suddenly awakened by an ex-
cruciating pain in her arm. She was
Mortified when she noticed big rat
crouching on her breast. She jumped
up and threw the rodent to the floor.
Hanley secured a club and began
search for the rat He moved the
dresser upon which the little girl was
standing and in the corner saw the rat.
The officer leaned over to hit it, when
it suddenly sprang at his hand Be-
| fore he could remove the member the
sharp teeth of the little animal were
fastened in his flesh. He shook it off,
and it then attacked his legs, making
vain effort to bite through his trous-
ers. Hanley beat off the rodent,
which he chased about the room, and
struck at it a hundred times, but only
hit the floor resounding whacks. Sud-
denly the rodent disappeared. Some
| SCOT dropped into the CRATE, and then
the policeman felt sure the rat was up
| the chimney. He lighted a newspa-
| ptl anu llllCN II IlllO lllt GIdlt. Ing
rat dropped from it's hiding place.
Its hair was singed. 1t again attack
ed Hanley and scratched his hand in
several places. Finally he cornered it
and gave it its quietus.
1t took him an hour and half to
kill the rodent, and he was soaked
with perspiration and breathing heav-
lily The rat was of the sewer variety
and was almost as large as half
grown cat. There is some mystery as
to how the animal got into the room,
as rats have heretofore been an I'M
known quantity about the house. Mrs
Martin thanked the officer for his help
and then grew hysterical. A physi-
clan was called and yesterday he pro-
nounced the condition of Mrs. Martin
serious. Her arm is badly infamed
