however, the water poured through an under pass in great volume and swept southward flooding the main north and south streets from Chico pee to Holyoke and spreading out in- to side streets to depth of several feet on its first rush. As the locality Is fiat, the water quickly drained away, most of it finding it's way to the Connecticut river. Deep deposits of mud were left in all the streets for nearly half mile south of the rail- road station and both trolley and au- tomobile traffic was virtually suspend ed.
 Train Routes Changed
 The tracks of the Boston and Maine suffered heavy damage for the water ate into the embankment. For time both tracks were out of com mission. The southbound White Mountain express from Montreal to New York was detoured at North ampton, nine miles north of Holyoke and sent over the Northampton branch to New Haven, and thence to New York. Other trains were held up temporarily. Shortly after daylight one line of the railroad was in shape to operate
 Train Races Water
 It Is reported that a southbound Boston and Maine freight train ran a spectacular race with the rising water. Reaching the flood area but a few moments before the crest of the wave the engineer continued south with in- creased speed and succeeded in keep ing clearof the water Only few min utes after the train had passed the tracks were undermined.
 The flood area as the water receded presented a scene of desolation A thick coating of mud was over every thing. Large vegetable gardens were uprooted and buried Early today all available police officers and firemen were put to work in an effort to bring order out of confusion and the pumps of the fire department were put to out cellars.
 The cause of the giving way of the Langw4d Pond Dam Is being investi- gated. It was reported by the caretak- CT that there had lately been some in- dications of leak and the theory is advanced that this might have been due either to the development of springs or to undermining by musk rats.

 The boldness with which this or ganization operated is indicated by the fact, according to the government. that five carloads of whisky were re- ceived on forged permits in outlying railroad yards and the city flooded with the liquor the same day.

Gemini people have a strong re-
ligious nature. and are often found
among church members. A creed Is
of great Importance to their hap
piness and yet they rarely place inn
pllcit confidence in any theological
system, though they will stoutly de-
fend the one they have appeared to
espouse.
These people have a great respect
for religious teachers. and are
sometimes very timid and apprehen-
sive about thinking for themselves.
This is attributable TO the necessity
they feel for something TO lean
upon, and the small opinion they
have of themselves and their ability
to decide questions of moment.
The governing planet Of this date
is Mercury, the winged messenger,
and the birthstone is an aqua
marine. The astral colors are red,
blue and white.

Find a Mummified Dinosaur.

The vast ice fields of Siberia have
in many instances acted as natural
cold-storage plant for the preservation
of the flesh of the mammoth, this pre-
historic cousin of the elephant. having
been dug out of his chilly grave intact
on numerous occasions. 1t has always
been supposed, however, that this was
the only instance in which anything
more than the bare bones of the fauna
of past geological epochs had come
down to us. Doubtless this mammoth
will continue to stand unique in this
respect; but he is no longer unap-
preached. There has recently been
put on exhibition in the Senikenberg
museum. FrankfOrt-am-Main. a dino
saur skeleton which carries with it a
considerable portion of the skin of the
animal, in mummif1ed form. In partic-
ular the epidermis over the animals
back is present practically intact The
skeleton has been mounted in flying
position, and makes altogether an i'm
pressive exhibit.-Scientific American.
