FLOOD AT
CARBONDALE
Concluded from Page I.


hundred feet further up. The first leap
OF the waters, therefore, from the nat
ural course was just above the bridge
at the rear of the Toolan property.
Here they cut Il hole through the bank
of ice and snow and swept furiously
over Toolan's land. Through this place
out onto Brooklyn street and over onto
the properties on the opposite side the
new born river rushed, emptying into
the Lackawanna some distance behind.
This break gradually widened, and as
the rain continued and the discharge OF
water down the mountain side swelled
the creek, the diverted stream took on
the rage and fury of the main stream,
and by 10 o'clock 500 feet of Brooklyn
street, north of the bridge, was flooded
with a rushing stream. 1t grew In
depth, and in an hour 1t was waist
deep. The best conception of this break
from the creek is given by saying that
1t was branch of good-sized river,
sweeping and swirling around the
houses, which 1t embraced in its wild
course, and in one instance entering the
front door of partly abandoned house
and emptying out of the rear door like
miniature waterfall. The least that
was done in any instance was the fill
ing of every cellar to the utmost.

FATALITIES
IN~LUZERNE
Three Persons Are Drowned.
Mayor of Wilkes-Barre
VaCateS His Home.

BY Exclusive Wire from The Associated Press.
Wilkes Barre, Feb. 2S.-At midnight
tonight the water in the river was
thirty feet above low-water mark, and
all the lowlands on the west side of the
river are completely submerged. People
living in the suburbs of Westmoor and
FirWood had to vacate their homes on
short notice. From 8 o'clock until g.,
the water rose very rapidly. 1t is still
rising and the flood is more disastrous
than the December flood. Owing to
washouts and bridges being swept
away, all railroad traffic is at a stand
still. Several bridges on the Delaware
.aad Hudson railroad, between this city
and Scranton. We're washed away.
So far as known, three lives We're lost.
Eugene Hoffman, aged 10, residing near
Plymouth, got too near a creek and
was carried away in the torrent. Jo-
seph MCGUIRE and John Fisher. two
employees of the Lehigh Valley railroad,
while repairing the bridge at White
Haven, were swept away by the rush
of water and drowned Among those
who were compelled to vacate their
homes tonight was Mayor Nichols.
The water was three inches deep on
the first floor of his house, when he de-
cided to remove his family up town.

A CAUSE OF HEADACHE,
One Very Common Cause, Generally
Overlooked.

Headache is symptom, an indlca-
tion of arrangement or disease In some
organ, and the cause of the headache
Is difficult to locate because so many
diseases have headache as a prominent
symptom; arrangement of the stomach
and liver, heart trouble, kidney disease
lung trouble, eve strain or i'll fitting
glasses, all produce headaches, and IL
we could always locate the organ which
Is at fault the cure OF obstinate head
aches would be a much simpler matter.
However, for that form of headache
called frontal headache, pain back of
the eyes and in forehead, the cause is
now known to be catarrh of the head
and throat: when the headache is To-
Gated in back of head and neck 1t is
often caused from catarrh of the stom-
ach or liver.
At any rate catarrh is the most COM
mon cause of such headaches and the
cure of the catarrh causes a prompt
disappearance of the headaches.
There Is at present no treatment for
Catarrh so convenient and effective as
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, a new inter-
nal remedy in tablet form, composed
of antlseptcs like eucalyptol, guaiacol
and blood root which act upon the
blood and cause the elimination of the
catarrhal poison from the system
through the natural channels.

DEATH In A
SNOW SLIDE
From 80 to 20 Men Are Bu-
ried by an Avalanche
in Colorado.

BY Exclusive Wire from the Associated Press.
Telluride, Colo, Feb. 2S.-The most
terrible snow slide ever known in Colo
rado, caused the deaths of from so to
10 men at the Liberty Bell mine on
Smuggler Mountain today. Although
the scene of the disaster is scarcely
two miles from this place, information
is difficult to obtain, on account of the
precipitous character of the roads and
the vast amount of snow. Nearly all the
buildings of the Liberty ljline We're
carried down by the slide. all the books
which show the number and names of
the men employed being lost, so that
the real list could be hardly known for
many hours. possibly not until the
mense quantity of snow, racks and
logs from the, canyon where the victims
lie buried.
1t seems that two slides occurred
practically in the same place the sec
ond burying those who were trying to
rescue the victims of the first.
The first slide occurred at 1880 o'clock
this morning while the men of the day
shift We're preparing for their days
work About 200 men are employed in
the mines and mills of the Liberty
Bell company and less than half these
We're at work at the time of the acci-
dent. The others We're in the boarding
house or in the bunk house nearby.
Both these buildings We're carried down
the mountain side, distance of 1000
feet and crushed by tons of snow.
1t was 10 o'clock before news of the
disaster reached Telluride. At once a
number of men started for the scene.
Meantime the surviving employees of
the Liberty Bell began the work of res
cuing the victims of the slide and a
dozen or more bodies We're removed
from the snow, which lay piled twenty
five feet deep in the bottom of the cam
yon. A little after noon second slide,
starting a short distance above the
first and practically following its track
swept down the mountain side burying
many of the rescuers. A third slide
came down at o'clock, about one mile
below the Liberty Bell mine and Gus
Won Fintel, John Powell and Paul
Dalpre, who We're on their return from
the scene of the catastrophe this morn
ing, We're swept away.
Harry Chase lost his life at the Lib
erty Bell, while assisting in the rescue
of the unfortunates in the first slide
of this morning.

FLOODS in
THE VALLEY
Greeks Feeding the SuSQue-
hanna Become Torrents.
Trains Abandoned.

BY Exclusive Wire from the Associated Press
Wilkes-Barre, Feb. 2S.-The Wyoming
valley was visited by a terrific rain
and wind storm, accompanied by heavy
thunder today. Al times the wind blew
a gale, blowing down outbuildings and
fences and uprooting trees.
The creeks feeding the Susquehanna
river became raging torrents and OVER
flowed their banks, doing a great deal
of damage to property. Toby creek
swelled to twice its normal size and
carried everything before it. Some far
mers near Dallas who failed to get their
live NstoCk out of the barns in time
saw them carried down the stream Mill
creek overhowed it's banks early in
the day and the surplus water found
its way into this city. In short time
Canal street was covered with several
feet of water and many of the residents
vacated their houses temporarily.
At BroOkside, a suburb in the north
ern part of the city, the water rose to
the first floor of the houses, putting out
the fires in the stoves and compelling
the inmates of at least a score of houses
to flee. The employees of Goldsmith's S
Silk mill in the southern part of the
city found themselves surrounded by
water and had to be rescued I'm boats
The United Charities association are
caring for a number of families who
had to give up their houses. In some
places the water is three feet deep on
the tracks of the Wilkes Barre and
Wyoming Valley Traction company and
traffic is suspended.
At o'clock the Lehigh Valley rail-
road gave notice that it had abandoned
all passenger trains east and west for
the time being.
The Lehigh river Is higher now than
it was during the December flood, The
west track of the Lehigh Valley rail-
road over Hayes creek, at White Haven,
was swept away this afternoon. The
ice i'm the Susquehanna river broke up
about o'clock this afternoon and went
out with rush, At o'clock this even
ing the water in the river was nine
teen feet above low-water mark and
was rising about two feet an hour. 1t
is expected that before midnight the
water will be over the west bank. and
the people living on the loWlands be-
tween this city and Kingston are maxi
ing preparations to leave their homes.

Miss Cora Ainsley, a prominent

catarrhal headaches and eulogizes Stu
arts Catarrh Tablets as cure for
them. She says: Il suffered daily
from severe frontal headache and pain
in and back of the eyes, at times so in
tensely as to incapacitate me in my
daily duties / had suffered from ca
tarrh, more or less for years, but never
thought it was the cause of my head
aches, but finally became convinced
that such was the case because the
headaches were always worse when
ever | had a cold or fresh attack of
catarrh.
"Stuart's Catarrh Tablets were high
ly recommended to me as a safe and
pleasant catarrh cure, and after using
a few fifty-cent boxes which I pro-
cured from my druggists 1 was sur
prised and delighted to find that both
the catarrh and headaches had gone

CAUSE OF TROUBLE.

The disaster in this section was
caused by the choking up with ice of
the creek that travels down the noun
tain side from Coalbrook, While the
flow this morning was perhaps way be-
yond the capacity of the channel of the
stream, yet it would have been well
managed but for the ice-blocked chan
mel.
There We're two breaks in the creek,
one that ran along FairView street and
made leap into Clune's alley flooding
the houses therein up to the doorsteps;
the other, the most serious, was near
the Coalbrook breaker where the creek
shooting down the hill drives under the
Delaware and Hudson tracks and
emptles into the Lackawanna.
AT this point, there seems to be no
room whatever under the tracks
through which an increased flow of
water can pass; but it is certain that
there wasn't room enough for today's
flood. The creek burst out and rushing
down the yard towards the city, 1t COW
cred nearly all of the tracks i'm the yard
by the time it reached Dundaff cross
ing The rush of water down Fairview
and Fallbrook streets met at the cross
ing, flooding the houses at the corner,
making some of the inmates prisoners
in their own homes.
At the railroad crossing the union
of the overflow was broken again, one
shooting down Dundaff street, turning
that thoroughfare into creek; the
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1902-03-01

other flow went down on the Delaware
and Hudson tracks ending at the prop
critics along River street. The flow
along Dundaff street caused scarcely
any damage, but the other was respon-
sible for a good deal of flooding. The
bobbin works of the Glover Leaf Manu-
featuring company We're submerged
and three nearby dwelling houses We're
flooded. The Hendricks company's
shops We're also damaged, the Patter-
son company's barn had four feet of
water and Lynch & Bronson had Il
thousand dollar dynamo ruined.
LAST CHANGE MINE FLOODED.
Shortly after o'clock water broke
through the old workings of the Last
Chance coliery and flooded down the
hill through Mills pasture in torrents.
Houses along the route were badly
damaged so furious was the rush of
water and cellars We're filed in a few
minutes after the break. The roadbed
for n distance of nearly forty feet on
the Honesdale branch of the Delaware
and Hudson was washed away and a
gang of men numbering nearly one
hundred had to be sent to the scene to
repair the break
The water rushed down Archibald
street and thence to Seventh avenue,
taking for its course the sidewalk and
a considerable portion of the roadway.
Many cellars We're flooded on Seventh
and Eighth avenue, and considerable
damage caused. The water broke
through from the Northwest workings.
The stores which border along the
Lackawanna in the rear of Main street,
were all flooded the Anthracite being
the most damaged,
On South Main street a number of
houses were inundated. on the West
Side the lumber yard of f, w. Mills
caught all the water that came down
the hill, and in some places it was waist
deep. Alumni park was flooded from
one end to the other.
All over the city the flood was felt,
and in all hundreds of properties and
cellars We're damaged, The sewer sys-
tenn was taxed far beyond its capacity
and nothing that the street department
men did was of any noticeable help.
