A. r. Sigle. Anton, Ala.
Please tell me, through The Jour-
nal, what is the matter with my
chickens. They go blind and can't
hold mp hteir heads, and very soon
after they go blind, they die. They
are fat. laying hens, and their
combs are red. They go to roost
all right and the next morning 1
can find five OF six that can't get
out of the house. I have given
them lime water and also sulphur
without results. They also foam
at the mouth.
ANSWER.
Your hens have ptomaine poison,
caused from eating putrid matter
of some kind. You will have to
yard all Of your chickens in a clean
place and take them away from
where they are getting this poison
Gus matter. They should be ply
sicked out good with salts and con-
dition powders of some kind, and
give nothing but sound wholesome
food. Those that are so far gone
that they will not eat, If you viii
take a teaspoonful OF turpentine
and mix in a small amount of corn
meal, and put some of this down
their threats, il will cure some of
them. tablespoonful OF strained
honey to each fowl is also good.
If you allow them to run out and
continue 70 get this poisonous mat

NATURAL GAS TAKES FIRE.
Dangerous Situation Which DeSeI-

Austin, Pa. Sept. 30-A dangerous
developed Immediately after
the great wall of water had passed.
Austin is piped for natural gas, and
the great force OF the food tore the
mains from the streets. One of them.

the business sesction. a after
ward the gas sushed out, and in a
tWinkling it had taken fire. There
was no explosion, but the flames leap
ed to a height of twenty feet or more,
and blown by a strong wind was com
m~unicated TO the nearest house.
Caught in the Flames and Incincrated.
In ten minutes a dozen other gas
pipes had burst and were pouring
their deadly inf1ammable fluid into the
air. Men who had rushed forward in
the hope Of doing some good were
overcome and fell. while others We're
caught in the flames and i~ncinerated.
Streets a Glowing He'll.
The street became a glowing hell.
and there was no salvation for those
who CHANGED to be near. How many
persisted at this point is not known,
but n estimate places it at a score.
Austin has little fire protection at
best, n with this swept way by the
flood and no one left to man the little
apparatus sthe town possessed. the

rupteO. Rapidly tney swept from
house to house, leaping streets and
alleys, and fed by the continual sup
ply Of gas from bursting mains, there
was no staying their progress. They
licked up what the water had left.
Shrieks Rent the Air.
Many persons crushed and helpless
in the wrecks OF buildings only partly
destroyed by the water, were cOnsum-
ed in the flames. Their shrieks could
be heard by the helpless ones who,
awakened from their sleep and par
alyzed by the scenes about them, en-
deavored TO save a life here and there
where it seemed possible; but they
were driven back by the deadly fumes
of the gas or the heat Of the flames,
and half an hour after the flood had
passed they stood on the hillside.
pitiful in their inability to do any
thing but bemoan the fate Of their
friends. Women and children there
were among the wounded and dying,
but among the cores Of men who
might at other times have braved
death to save the lives of the unfoF-
tunate there was none to dare.
