WILL STOP SALE OF
LIQUOR ON TRAINS
Jew YORK, NEW HAVEN AND
HARTFORD WILL DlSCON.
TiNUE IT MARCH 1.

NEW YORK, Feb. 23.-After March
no more liquor will be sold on the
New York, New Haven & Hartford
Railroad on any of its trains, it was
announced officially tonight.
"The New Haven takes this &C.
tion," says the roads statement, lin
the belief that however custom may
have sanctioned the practice, the sale
of liquor on its train in the states of
Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Con-
necticut is not permitted by the laws
of these states, which make no pro-
vision for state licensing. No liquor
was sold in New York state because
the distance traversed there was be-
lieved to be too short to warrant TAX
ing out a state license.
I'm regard to the sale of liquor on
trains, the position of the New Ha-
ven in the past has been that it had
no desire to sell liquor, but that it
did so in response to the demand of
its patrons. However, it is the policy
of the company to conduct it's bust
ness strictly in conformity with the
laws of the states in which it oper-
ates, and it feels that as the law in
these three states does not provide
for liquor selling on trains, it should
be stopped"

STRANGE ANIMAL
FOUND IN CAVE
TWO LOCAL EXPLORERS HAVE
INTERESTING ADVENTURES IN
UNDERGROUND CAVERN.

There is a tale circulating the
rounds these days in regard to the
adventures in a cave near the city OF
two prominent Columbia citizens, who
were essaying the roles of Pearys,
but who came near suffering the fate
of Scots.
Being of an adventurous turn OF
mind and hardy of soul, they entered
the cave about half mile, going
through wonderful chambers, and be-
holding many of the geological won
ders that are to be seen in this un-
derground marvel. Their further
course, however, was stopped by a
strange animal from which issued SO
strange and blood curdling a sound
that one of the gentlemen suddenly
took thought of the family that he
had left behind and left the cat, or
whatever the varmint was, to occupy
the cave unmolested.
His companion wanted to stay and
see whether it was bob cat, but his
friend would listen to no reason and,
much on the order Of the Biblical
writer, who said it was better to be
a living dog than a dead lion, he pre-
ferred to be living coward outside
that cave instead of a dead hero in
side.

The university's cholera vaccine de-
partment treated 100000 hogs and
many were saved. The hog cholera
