SOUTH VERNON.
salt Salmon for Everybody.

South Vernon was struck with an ex-
ceedingly large fish shower early Mon
day morning. AS the Montreal express
came down about o'clock, behind time
running at high rate of speed, 1t
struck the rear end of a freight train
and plowed through five cars. 1t is
reported that two of these cars were
loaded with salt salmon direct from
Alaska, worth about $4,000, en- route to
Greenfield, Mass. There were 26 barrels
of 200 pounds each, and great quantities
of these large fish were thrown in all
directions. All South Vernon had a
chance to go fishing and get all they
wanted. Some living several miles out
of the village came, too, still there were
quantities of fish that had to be burned
or buried.

Fire In G. A. Robertson Co.'s Mill.

still alarm was given Sunday after
noon about 4 O'Clock for a fire in G.. A
Robertson & Co.'S mill. The fire started
in an open shed where bales of waste
were kept Firemen in that locality were
soon on the spot and We're not long in
eXtinguishing the blaze. The largest loss
was caused by water. The fire had not
spread very rapidly as the bales were
packed compactly. The loss is estimated
at $500 Just how the fire caught is a
mystery. 1t Is suspected, however that
it was set by children playing about the
premises with matches.

London. Nov 27 Sir Edward Rich. ard Henry, chief commissioner of the 1ondon metropolitan police. was shot aMd seriously wounded tonight, by a man who had an alleged grievance against him. Sir Edward was alight- ing from motor car at his residence in Kensington, on his return from Scotland yard, when the man rushed from the opposite side of the street and shots at him three times with a revolver.
 One bullet entered the left groin, infiicting a dangerous wound and the others missed their mark. The com missioner's chauffeur, who is an ex- policeman, grappled with the assaiI- ant and overpowered him.
 It turned out that the man, whose name is Bowes. had a month ago ap- piled at Scotland Yard for a taxicob license, which was refused him. Sub sequertly he wrote to the commis- sioner pleading for reconsideration but without avail. For this reason ha nursed a grudge against Sir Edwari and lay in wait for him.
 The commissioner has retained con. sciousness but is suffering great pain The attending physicians pronounce the wound serious but hope for Sir Edwards recovery.

HOW TO RESIST
Chronic Coughs and Colds.

Strong. vigorous men and women hardly ever catch cold; it's only when the system is run down and vitality low that colds and coughs get foot hold.
 Now isn't it reasonable that the right way to cure cough is to build up your strength againg
 Mrs. Olivia Parham, of East Dur ham, N. C., says: T took Vinol for a chronic cough which had lasted two years and the cough not only disap- peared. but it built up my strength as we'll"
 The reason vino1 Is so efflcacious in such cases is because it contains in a delicious concentrated form all the medicinal curative elements of cod liver oil, with tonic, blood-building iron added.
 Chronic coughs and colds yield to vinol because it builds up the weak ened, rundown system < You can get your money back any time If Vinol docs not do all we say.
