A farmer named Rogers and all the members of his family were killed. The heavy rain was followed by hail which laid low the grain -and fruit crops.

BREACH OF Promise.—Truro is just now agitated over « sensational breach of pro- mise suit. It appears that some thirty years ago, Captain George Campbell became engaged to Esther Fletcher. They were not married, but a child was born to them. He held out the hope that he would marry her, acknowledged the child ard provided for its education. Miss Fletcher remained faithful and hopeful through all the years* but the marriage never came off. Camp- bell amassed wealth, and last year made up his mind to marry. He married, not Miss Fletcher, but a widow, named Corbett, | hence the present suit for damages.

The Johnstown Disaster. LATE NEWS) FROM THE VALLEY OF DEATH,

Jounstown, Pa., June 8.— The day opened with heavy rain, air chilly, and the valley where so many had lost their lives presented a most desolate scene, While the rain was far from pleasant to the workers and helpers, certainly it is pro- vidential that cool weather is continuing, as it preven. ‘he much dreaded decomposi- tion of human bodies yet uncovered, and thousands of animals that perished in the flood.

Dus, June 4.—Lord Mayor Sexton has cabled to America £1,000 for the relief of the Johnstown sufferers.

New York, June 8.—<An official of the Pennsylvania Railway Company states that the company’s loss in property destroyed by the flood and by sufpension of traffic will reach $13,000,000. The first train over the road for Chicago left Jersey City last evening.

Cusa, N. Y., Jane 8.—The reservoir at this place is leaking, and water is being drawn off through outlets to prevent a break in the main.

Ovean, N. Y., June 8.-—-The largest artificial body of water in the United States is situated 982 feet above Olean, and is said to be liable to give way at any mo- ment. It was formerly used to feed the old Genesse Valley Canal, but is now merely a sportsman’s paradise. The reser voir is one-third larger than the Cone- maugh reservoir, and there is no reason why it should not be abvlished at once. About ten years ago this dam burst, flooding the valley for a distance of 150 miles.

AN ISLAND WOMAN IN MONCTON DOES UP A

TRAMP IN GRAND STYLE. Says the Moncton Times of yesterday's date: Mrs. Norman McKendrick, an aged widow lady who keeps a boarding house at the corner of Main and Cameron Streets, while alone in her house on Saturday even- ing about 20 o'clock, responded to a knock at the door and was met by a surly-looking man, who she says would weigh about 200 pounds. He was unshaven and had a dis- sipated appearance. He was slightly under the influence of liquor, and when he got a cup of coffee and cold meat he demanded half a dollar, which was refused, where- upon he commenced to swear and threaten to search the house. Mrs. McKendrick, who has seen tramps before, ordered him to leave her house, which he refused to do, and replied that he would go when he got ready. But a Scotch woman couldn't stand any lingo like that, and Mrs. McK., reaching into a pantry where she kept her kindlings, etc., produced a hatchet and dealt the drunken scoundrel a sound blow on the head, which felled him to the floor, after which she chastised him with the family broomstick in such a manner as to cause him to beg for forgiveness, as well as stain her kitchen floor with his worthless blood. Mrs. McKendricks is 67 years of age, aS siuart as a girl of fiften years, and declares by her “Jimmy Johnson” that while she has her health and strength no tramp will ever take charge of her house. Mrs. McKendrick is a native of P. E. Is- land, a place where, she says, they raise prave women.
