THE RAGING ELEMENTS. Hound Iti'oolt, X. J., Devastated by Fire and Flood. Tlirre Vmtli Wrecked nil the IVexv KlIRlmul Const Nllllilny. lhe IliUlol, Conn,, Anlilrnt lteaiilieil In Nit tenths. Bound Brook, N. J., was devastated by two opposlto elements, llro and water, Thursday night of last week. Tho heavy rain swelled the volume of water In tho Rarltan river so that tho arched openings of the bridge of the Now Jersey Central railroad would not permit tho water to flow through. It backed up and Inundat ed tho town to the depth of live to 10 feet. Tho people took refuge In the second sto ries of the houses. Many frail structures were torn from their foundation, and num bers of dead animals went down In the torrents. A man named Miller, whoso boat was overturned, was the only person who was drowned. A quantity of limo In Cook's lumber yard was slacked by tho water, and Ignited tho surrounding piles of lumber. Tho flames were fanned by a fierce wind, and as the fire department was helpless because of the high water nothing could be done to save tho burning build ings.

Three; of those on board tho schooner Alllanza, which pounded to pieces on Plum Island, perished with the vessel. The life-saving crews did all that was humanly possible, but the wrecks oc curring at the same time and at a distance of several miles from each other, much time was unavoidably lost by those who sought to rescue the doomed seamen. This part of the coast Is so well lighted and so well known to captains of coasting vessels that the disasters are probably attributable only to tho hazards of the sea, the superi ority of storm over the strongest fabric that the hands of man can put together. The falling of tho railroad bridge at Bristol, Conn., on Thursday night was not attended with so great a loss of life as first reported. Six men who went dotvn with the falling mass were drowned, and the bodies of all but one. have been recov ered. John D. Capron, son of Charles S.

Therefore the earliest date upon which Easter may occur is March 22. If the full moon should fall on March 21, "Easter is the following Sunday.

"It is with my sincere thanks and gratitude,' writes Patrick Kleley of North l'ownal, Vt., to Dr. Kennedy of Roundcut, N. Y "I write you of the great benefit I received from your med icine, Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite remedy. My case was a severe one and a puzzler to the doc tors. About eighteen months ago I began to feel a pain in my right side; It gradually grew worse until I was compelled by the almost unbearable pain to give up work entirely. I would belch up auantltles of wind and water. I employed Ave liferent physicians, and after taking about a wagon load of medicines I seemed to grow worse By the advice of a friend, I began to use DR. DAVID KENNEDY'S FAVORITE REMEDY After taking the first bottle I felt some better, so continued its use, and by the time I had taken three bottles the pain was entirely gone and have not felt a sign of it since. I have tried all of the different sarsaparillas, compounds and nervines on the market and I consider Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite Itemedy the superior of them all." Favorite Remedy restores the disordered liver to a healthy condition and corrects constipation. It is a certain cure for the diseases peculiar to women. It cures scrofula, salt rheum, erysipelas, nervousness, loss of sleep, or that worn out feel ing. In cases of rheumatism, dyspepsia, Blight's disease, gravel, diabetes and bladder troubles, it has cured where all else failed. DR. GREENE'S NERVURA.
