Two Hundred Feet of Earth Gave
Way under Track at Mid.
dlebury.
CARS had JUST GONE OYER
Boys Swimming in otter Creek Sny tho
Heavily Iondcd Train shook Road.
bed As II Passed and Right
Afterwards n Mass, 80 Feet
I'm width, sank.

Mlddlcbury, July 5.-Thc northbound
Boston and Montreal mail and passenger
train on the Rutland railroad yesterday
afternoon narrowly escaped dcrallfncnt
on the bank Of otter creek as just after it
had passed over Il section 200 feet in
length the earth gave way for a width
of 20 feet. Boys swimming in otter
creek say the roadbcd shook as the train
passed over It and with the passing of
the last car the whole mass slid away,
leaving the rails suspended In the air.
The train. consisting of seven heavily
loaded cars, pulled into the local station
on time nt 3:l7 and shortly after its de-
parture Section Foreman Peter Pnsso,
who was told by the bathers, hurried in
with the news of what had happened.
Where the clvc-in occurred IS within the
village limits, south of the station, and
known as Donahue's wharf. The track
at this point runs at n curve close 20 the
banS'of the creek and II Is supposed that
quicksand was the cause OF the trouble.
The height Of the track above the water
was some IL feet.
The officials at Rutland at once got
busy hurrying stone and gravel here to
ill the hole and by 200 u. IN. to-day had
dumped in ~ carloads whN5 the section
men I'm the same time carried n temporary
track around for the passing Of trains.
Trains last evening carried by. passenger
on the flyer being delayed here about four
hours. 1t Is estimated that 20 to - more
carloads of stone and gravel will he
needed to repair the damage.

LYDIA E. PINKHHM

No other medicine has been so
successful in relieving the suffering
of women or received so many gen
uine testimonials as has Lydia u.
Pinkhanl's Vegetable Compound.
In every community you will find
women who have been restored to
health by Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg
etable Compound. Almost every
one you meet has either been benc-
flied by it, or has friends who have.
In the Pinkham Laboratory at
lynn, Mass, any womanany day may
SEQ the files containing over one mil
lion one hundred thousand letters
from women seeking health, and
here are the letters in which they
openly state over their own sigma
lures that they were cured by Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
Lydia f. Piulham's Vegetable
Compound has saved many women
from surgical operations.
Lydia Z. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is made from roots and
herbs, without drugs, and is whole
some and harmless.
The reason why Lydia E. Pink.
hams Vegetable Compound is so
successful is because it contains in
gradients which act directly upon
the feminine organism, restoring 1t
to healthy normal condition.
Women who are suffering from
those distressing ills peculiar to their
sex should not lose sight of these
facts or doubt the ability of Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
to restore their health.

Parker. TaECart's price was that he
should be named chairman Of the ma

generally known. BY his customary meth

Belmont and Sheehan at st. Louis.
After the convention Parker was visited
