Saves C. P. R. Express From Plunging
Through Burning Bridge.
'A desputtri frem erecd says:
Passengers by the be:tiled C. P. 1t,
express, which reached here at
noon on Thursday, brought a thril-
ling story of the destruction of a
bridge by fire in the early morning
hours, am! the possible saving of
the train itself fruni a grave dis-

.1►i<,y, wh') was warned by a dream
that the bridge which carried the
track over the creek between Bran-
don and Winnipeg was on fire. The
train crew were warned of the peri-
lous condition of a bridge through
a boy named Guthrie, the son of a
trackman, ole) lives in a cottage
on the line some distance from
the bridge. Ile said he was awak-
ened by a dream that something
was burning that seemed like* a
bridge, and, seeing that everything
was all right in the house, he went
out and saw the bridge in !lames.
It was then something after 1
o'clock, and ins`antly remember-
ing the express, he awoke his fa-
ther, who arranged the plan for
signalling the express before it
reached the point of danger.

A despatch from Seattle, Wash-
ington, says: 'Theodore Mastin, a
farther living north of Blaine, owes
a piece of land the north line of
which is the international boundary
between Canada and the United.
States. Mastin, while aware of
this, has never had cause to re-
gret it until this year, when he
. planted a hundred rows of corn
along the line. In the tield of corn
he planted pumpkins, and now
harvest time is nigh, and Mastin
has written to federal officers in
Seattle asking how he can gather
some fifty pumpkins which have
emigrated into Canada without
taking out naturalization papers.
Some of the pumpkins are as much
as thirty feet into forbidden land.
Just what the federal law says re-
garding the unique question is not
known, but the jurists replied to
Mastin's letter that he might stand
directly on the international line
and pull on the vine which had root
it, the United States, and if the
pumpkins could be dragged in, well
and proper; but if any should be
snapped off and remain in Cana-
dian territory he should leave them
alone.

Toronto.
A despatch from Toronto says:
•- The Ontario Department of Mines

gold discoveries in the district sur-
"rounding the township of Vi hitncy.

places in the district, are raid to be
rich in the precious mineral. The

Farmer Discovered Treasure Valu-
ed at $50,090.
A despatch from Ogdensburg, N.
Y., says: A farmer ru►mod Yost -
burg, living near Champlain, while
plowing on Tuesday, turned up a
quantity of gold coins, tarnished
by the weather and dirt in which
they reposed. Digging farther, ho
found more coins than ho could
carry home at ono time. Their
value is estimated at $50.000. It is
believed the treasure was buried
I•y persons who stole it, from the
British army which camped near
Champlain during the Burgoyne
campaign. The robbers probably

NOT FIT TO DRINK.
Montreal's Water Declared to be
Absolutely Dirty.
A despatch from Montreal says:
Dr. Henri St. George, City Bac-
teriologist, has completed his re-
port in regard to the condition of
the city's water, showing it to be
unfit for drinking. The report of
Dr. St. George conunences,by say-
ing that the city at the present
time is getting almost all its water
from the Ottawa River, owing to
the lowness of the water in the St.
Lawrence. Samples of the water
have been taken during the past
ten days, and the analysis shows
that the fluid now being provided
to the city is unhealthy in the ex-
treme. It is full of vegetable mat-
ter. Indeed. the condition of the
supply can be judged from the fact
that the analysis shows there are
nu less than 96,000 bacteria in fif-
teen drops of water. In brief, the
whole tenor of the report is to de-
clare that. the water is absolutely
dirty.

he may have met with foul play

Wide Extent of Country Has Been
Devastated.
A despatch from Winnipeg says:
Prairie fires are raging in various
parts of Alberta and Saskatche-

third of the Government Park near
Wainwright, Alta., was burned,
but the buffalo are safe. Another
Lig fire is rushing towards the park
at present. Many homesteaders
it both Alberta and Saskatchewan
have suffered loss.
A despatch from Oak Point,
Man., says: Fire is raging 32 miles
north of Oak Point. It was start -
(el over a week ago on Dug ('reek
Italian Reserve. Since then it has
turned hundreds of square miles of
prairie sod and timber. A large
quantity of hay hes already been
destroyed. Several settlers have
lost stock, houses and stables, and
narrowly escaped tearful deaths.
On three or four days of last week
the sun was completely hidden by
smoke. The whole population in
that region is greatly alarmed. be -
(nese nothing but heavy rain can
extinguish the flames. If a pea
wind prises the whole country be-
tween Lake Manitoba and Lake
Winnipeg may become the prey of
the Ilatne'.
