APASUN. TWENTY-ggéiBILéjv’ggLLOST AT Widespread Bulrnctlen by Floodâ€"Rall- roa'l and Telegraph (‘onnnunicauou Shut OHâ€"nundreds Homelessâ€"Streets Blocked Wltli Masses of Mud. A Pueblo, Col., despatch says :--The cloud burst which on Thursday night sent a vast torrent of water down the valley and into this city caused many deaths and rendered widespread destruction. The work of rescue had just begun when a reâ€" currence of the flood caused a suspension of the work, and it is feared that many bodies which were washed away and under debris will never be recovered. The list of the dead and missing compiled shortly before midnight comprises '21. The catas- trophe has utterly prostrated the citizens and paralyzed business. The property loss will be about $600,000. To-night both the Arkansas and Fountain Rivers are rising rapidly. Seventy-five feet east approach to the Fourth street viaduct caved in short. 1y after midnight. The west bank of the Arkansas at this point is being rapidly eaten away by the angry waters. AN APPALLING scans. It was 9 o'clock this morning before the flood subsided. Shortly after that hour the sun came out bright and as the weary night- watchers came forth from their damp pri- sons the scene which greeted them was appalling. On every hand was ruin and the property loss is enormous. The carcas- es of horses and other animals were floating around in the whirling water, and the current in many places could not be stem- med on account of drifting derbis. Cellars and the first floors of business houses were covered with from 18 inches to three feet of slimy mud,and this had about completed the ruin of many stocks which might have escaped with only the soaking of last night. The mud was carried out into the streets, and the piles which rose in front of every store soon dammed the water still running through the street, and it backed up into many stores, giving them a second though much less thorough flooding. The streets are yet impassable. Street cars were found allover town. Trees were uprooted and fences swept away. About 300 houses were torn from their foundations and many float- ed out of town. Only a few unfortunates were able to save any of their household efi'ects. Most of the dwellings are only one story and were either entirely submerged or carried off their foundation by the cur- rent. In this city and for three miles up and down the banks of the Arkansas River the water was from 3 to 15 feet deep. RAILROADS SUFFER SEVERELY. The Missouri Pacific Company estimates its loss at $10,000. Six hundred feet of double track is washed out near here. The Santa Fe had about 300 feet of track washed out and the damage, together with the loss of a bridge, will reach $35,000. \Vhile the Denver and Rio Grande does not suller any sevare loss in the city the damage by wash- outs between here and Colorado Springs and Canon City will amount to over $25,000. The Santa Fe succeeded in putting a train through from Denver last night. MORE RAIN. Late this afternoon the rain again began coming down in sheets, the precipitation being heavier than that which preceded last night’s cloud bursts. Reports came in from Florence and Canon City about 7 o’clock to the effect that the rainstorm there is terrific. The water in the Arkansas began to rise at once and in one hour the gauge recorded a rise of one foot. From Wigwam, fifteen miles north on the Fount- ain River, comes the news of a cloud burst there about 7 o’clock. The stream, which is usually only from three to five inches deep and abouth feet wide at that point, is now swollen into a rushing torrent over a quarter of a mile wide. Do Unto Others, 850. This expression is the very touch stone of moral experiment and will do more to regulate our views with regard to others than any amount of speculation.- It par- ticularly applies to the relation of‘producer and consumer. To let the imagination often call upon those who are to avail them- selves of our work, to endeavor to realize their needs and desires and decide whether they will be served or disappointed by it will often materially change our own ideas of its value. If we sometimes ask ourselves: Were I to live in this house I am building, or to eat this food I am preparing, or wear the cloth I arri manufacturing, how should I wish to have it done ‘3 " Such an interro- gatory on our part would, or at least ought, to have an immediate effect upon our opinions with regard to the nature of the work on which we are engaged, how far our obligations and responsibilities extend in his direction and now far our personal effort. may help to make or mar the soil in view. Indeed, the success of many an enterprise depends mainly upon the. insight which detects that which is agreeable or otherwise to the public, what are the help; and conveniences which people ordinarily desire, aid what the trouble and in;onven- iencc they wish to avoid. From this con- dition itlogicallyfollows that one who shuts his eyes to these considerations, who lookt at everything from his own standpoint alone and never stops to consider how they may affect the community generally, will never put his labor to the best possible use. In a word the man who forgets that he is only a component part of the great social body and that all his ends and aims should be directed to the promotion of the general good, should consider himself as born in vain. _.â€"_._ Colonel Ingersoll was riding uptown on nva York elevated when a gentleman sitting opposite recognized him and whisper- ed to his friend :â€"-“ There's Bob Inger- soli."

From the Newcnstlc. N. 13., Union Advocate. Quite recently lhere came to the know- ledge of the proprietor of the Union Advo- cate, two cases of residents of Newcastle having been greatly benefited by the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and these were thought to be of sufficient interest to war- rant their being published in the interests of humanity, if the parties interested had no objection to the facts being published. Consequently a reporter of this paper called upon the parties and obtained from them cheerfully all the particulars. Mr. and Mrs. Hammill removed from Fort Fair- field, Maine, to Newcastle, N. 8., about fourteen months ago. For two years pre- vious Mrs. Hammill had been in a very poor state of health and was steadily grow- ing weaker and running down, until she was unable to do the necessary work about the house, and the little she did used her up completely. Pains in the back and limbs, weakness, dizziness and other disagreeable symptoms troubled her. For some time she was under treatment of several doctors at Fort Fairfield, and also since she moved here. But they effected no improvement to her run down system and she was gradually growing worse and had given up all hope of regaining her health. Having read accounts of the cures effected by the use of Dr. \Villiains’ Pink Pills she decided last July to try them and see if she could be benefited thereby. She purchas- ed some from Mr. H.H. Johnstone, druggist, and commenced to take them and has since continued to take them with,to her, wonder ful results. She had taken but a few boxes when a gradual improvement seemed to be taking place' The pains in her back and limbs left her as did the other unpleasant symptoms, and at the present time she is as wellJis ever she was and without feeling the tiredness and exhaustion of her former state. At her recommendation her husband also began the use of P'Qk Pills. About a year before coming to Newcastle he had suffered from an attack of typhoid fever, from the effects of which he did not recover his former health. His blood seemed to be thin and watery, and be was weak and easily worn out. Through all this he kept steadily at work, although he says that when night came he was thoroughly wearied and de- pressed, not knowing how to obtain relief. When his wife began to feel the beneficial efiects of Pink Pills she urged him to try them and he did so. After taking three boxes he began to feel a wonderful change. The tired feeling left him and he had a better appetite and enjoyed his food with a relish he had not had before. He continued taking the Pills for some time and is to- day fully restored to his old-time health and strength. Mr. Hammill was very will- ing to tell of the benefits both he and his wife had derived from' the use of Dr. Will- iams’ Pink Pills, with the hopc that their experience might lead others to test the benefits to be derived from this wonderful remedy. The gratifying results following the use of Pink Pills in the case of Mrs. Hammill prove their unequalled pOWers as a blood builder and nerve tonic. There are many throughout the land suffering in silence as did Mrs. Hammill, who can readily find re- lief in a course of Dr. \Villiams’ Pink Pills. They are a specific for the troubles peculiar to women, such as irregularities and all forms of weakness. They build up the blood, restore the glow of health to pale and sallow cheeks driving out pains in the back and limbs, weakness and other dis- agreeable symptoms which make life a blip den. They also cure such diseases as rheu- matism, neuralgia, partial paralysis, loco- motor ataxia, St. Vitus’ dance, nervous headache, nervous prostration, the after effects of la grippe, influenza, and severe colds, diseases depending on humors in the blood, such as scrofula, chronic erysipelas. etc.’ and in all cases arising from mental worry, over-work or excesses of any nature. Dr. “ illiams’ Pink Pills are sold only in boxes bearing the firm’s trade mark. They are never sold in bulk, or by the, dozen or hundred, and any dealer who offers substitutes in this form is trying to defraud you and should be avoided. The public are also cautioned against all other so-called blood builders and nerve tonics, put up in similar form intended to deceive. Ask your dealer for Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People and refuse all imita- tions and substitutes. These pills are manufactured by the Dr. Williams‘ Medicine Co. Brockville, Ont, and Schenectady, N. Y., and may be had of all druggists or direct by mail from Dr. \Villiams’ Medicine Co. from either ad- dress, at 50 cents a box, or six boxes for 5’). The price at which these pills are sold makes a. course of treatment compara- tively inexpensive as compared with other remedies or medical treatment. â€"»-â€"¢-â€" It Frightened Him.

Here he pushed for- ward a gallipot containing a chemical com- pound of exceedingly offensive smell. " When I was a student,” he continued, “I used my sense of taste,” and with that he dipped his finger into the gallipot, and then put his finger in his mouth. “ Taste it, gentlemen, taste it," said the professor," and exercise your perceptive faculties." The gallipot was pushed towards the re- luctant class. One by one the students resolutely dipped a finger in the abomina- ble concoction, and with many a wry face all the members of the learned professor’s class sucked the accumulated horror from their fingers. “Gentleman, gentleman l" said the pro. fessor, “ I repeat that you do not use your faculties of obervation, for bad you done so, and looked more closely at what I was doing, you would have seen that the finger which I put in my mouth was not the tin- ger I dipped in the gallipot." l When the hands of a clock are arrested they stop doing time.

It banishes those distressing maladies that make woman‘s life a burden, curing all painful irregularities, uterine disorders, inflammations and ulcerations, prolapsus and kindred weaknesses.
