An Ounce of Prevention.

The GLOBE has had occasion within the past
week to chronicle several serious and two fatal
accidents caused by runaway teams. INQUIRY
into the origin of the accident attributes each
one to the careiessness and culpable neglect,
either in hitching or not hitching the horses.
There's a city ordinance requiring all teams to
be hitched by the driver when left even
for moment. How utterly this is dis
regarded can be seen in numerous instances
every day on our streets. Wagons are driven
up to the sidewalk, the teamster bounces out,
goes into a store and leaves his team unhitched
for minutes struggling along towards the hour.
The wonder is that accidents are not more
frequent, and that many are not attended with
more serious results If it were understood
that death resulting from the carelessness of
the driver in not hitching was murder, and
that he should be held as murderer, accidents
would be less frequent.
At any rate there's an ordinance against the
prevalent carelessness in the hitching question,
and it ought to be enforced.

Rescued ana Saved, Perhaps.

young girl named Harvey was saved from
attempted moral suicide, last night. Word
came up from Mother frances establish
ment that there was young girl there who
was seeking to give herself away. Capt.
Clark went down to enquire. There he found
tho young girl, only seventeen years old, who
had voluntarily asked to be admitted among
the sisterhood of outcasts. She said she was from
Chicago, had been out at work for three months
in this city. The last place she had service
was on Mississippi street. She had lost her
place, could find no work and was willing to
surrender herself to SIN and shame to obtain a
livelihood. This story she had already told to
Mrs. France, who, more mindful of her
than she had been of her own
daughters, informed the police. The
girls story and situation was communicated
to one of the reverend fathers of the Catholic
church, who secured her home in tho House
of the Good Shepherd. The girl began to
partially realize the dreadful step she had
made, and not unwillingly accepted the rescue
given her.

TO the Editor OF the Globe. 553
In your issue of Saturday, Feb. I, you do me
great injustice in regard to the statement
made by Fannie Olson, who came to my house
over one year ago, and begged me to take her,
as she had no place to go; so gave her place
to do such light work as she could do in hex
then enfeebled condition. She then told me
she had just come from h0useof ill-repute
in Moorhead. Mimi, where she had been some
time, until she gave birth to child. when they
kicked her out, as they had no more use for her
then; SO she came direct to my house from
there. She remained with me until found
her stealing almost any thing she could lay her
hands on, when sent her off, and have not
seen her since.
Hoping you will give this ! place in your
valuable paper and give me Justice,
