PENNED IN THE RIVER swAMPs
Cattle are Thus Protected During
High Water.

In the river swsmps east of Ameri-
Gus. along the line OF the Seaboard
Railway, large numbers of cattle are
penned in on the high grounds near
the railway track. not only to save them
from death by drowning in the river
overflow now covering the lowlands
where they Craze, but to keep them off
the railway track as well. During such
freshets and high water these cattle,
hundreds of them, will Chamber upon
the track, this being high point al
ways, and thus prove menace to
trains unless penned up as they now
are and fed until the high waters in
the swamps subside.

In Presentation of Volunteer Oreanisi
In AmeTicuS

In the last act If the ''Volunteer Or
ganist", which will be seen at the opera
house next Tuesday night, 18th, some
beautiful full-blooded st. Bernard dogs
are introduc d. It is the business of
these noble animals to rescue from the
storm little child who has strsyed
from home. That the dogs understand
just what is expected OF them is ev1nced
by the earnestness with which they re
ceive the charge to find the child, and
then bound out into the raging storm
The dogs were especially imported
from Switzerland by Mr.. MartelI for
this production, and their value would
call for check of four figures. They

fioated away long since.
Divers employed at the wreck have
seen nothing of the bodies.
The engine took a plunge through
the open drawbridge aud fell fifty feet
to the bottom of the river The heavy
tender is piled upon the engine, and
the bodies of the three men may be be-
meath all this debris. Or they may
have foated off during the week.
