had been kicked by horse, and
then came the report that he had
been shot in the back.
The body was found about

Moffitt had gone to the barn
following his breakfast to feed

Writing at Boston, under date Of

then attending the Continental con-

There is great scarcity of sugar
and coffee, articles which the female
part Of the state is very loath to give
up. especially whilst they consider the
great scarcity occasioned by the ner-
chants having secreted a large guam
hty. It IL rumored that an eminent
stlngy merchant, who is bachelor,
had a hogshead Of coffee In his store,
which he refused to sell under six
shillings per pound.
"A number Of females, some say a
hundred, some say more, assembled
with cart and trunk, marched down
to the warehouse and demanded the
keys.
Upon his finding no quarter, he de-
hvered the keys, and they then opened
the warehouse, hoisted out the coffee
themselves, put it into trunk and
drove OF. A large concourse OF men
stood amazed, silent spectators Of the
whole transaction"

Fish Thrive Under Water.

Water never gets colder than about
80 degrees. So no matter how thick
the day, and no matter how thick the
ice upon the stream or lake, the fishes
are enjoying temperature Of about
80 degrees, and they move about in
the water and gather supplies very
well at that temperature. Through
the clear ice one may see fish with
their backs against 1t, where the tenn
perature must be 30 degrees, and II
you strike the ice above them light
~ they dart away with pretty good
speed. II you will strike the ice I'M
mediately above them with the back
Of an ak, or sledge hammer. you
will kill the fish. The conclusion
does the business and the fish will
turn up its white belly upward, al
ways. It Is a common enough thing
In some regions for the boys to kill
the fish through the Ice, and then
to cut hole and get them out.

The Tunnels Part in Progress.

In the history Of civilization the
tunnel has played mighty part. In
Europe the st. Gothard tunnel through
the Alps is famous; 1t connects Cos
chenen with Airoto, In Switzerland,
and is over nine miles long. The
Simplon, which also penetrates the
Alps, Is reckoned one Of the seven
modern wonders Of the world: 1t is
121z miles in length. Still another
Alpine bore is the Wasser1uh, two
miles In extent from entrance to en-
trance. Another notable tunnel Is the
Khojak pass, In India.
Among the important American tun-
nels is that which penetrates the Cas-
cade mountains, In Washington; the
Cumberland, under the Cumberland
mountains In Tennessee; the Hoosac,
In Massachusetts,, and the tunnel I'M

OLD-TIME COLD CURE
DRINK HOT TEA!

Get a small package of Hamburg
Breast Tea at any pharmacy. Take a
tablespoonful of the tea, put cup OF
boiling water upon it, pour through a
sieve and drink teacup full at any
time during the day or before retiring.
It is the most effective way to break
a cold and cure grip. as it opens the
pores of the skin, relieving congestion.
Also loosens the bowels, thus breaking
up cold.
Try it the next time you suffer from
a cold or the grip. It is inexpensive
and entirely vegetable, therefore safe
and harmless.
