If there is one thing more than an
other calculated to secure the undi-
Vided attention Of the average human
being, it is a runaway. This was
eyineed last Friday afternoon. When
Summerfeld's mare broke away
County Recorder elect Davis was
getting shaved in Friedlile's shop,
and one side of his face was still
covered with lather. He jumped
out of his chair and, regardless of
appearances, ran down the street to
the Union Hotel. He watched the
mare until she was we'll on her way
to the Rock Point mill when, his
interest having abated, he suddenly
noticed the towels hanging about
his neck and made tor the barber
shop on the double-quick-to the
great delight Of the crowd. A party
OF gentlemen who were drinking in
Vau Norman's saloon instantly
dropped their glasses ana ran, and
all persons who cnuld possibly get
out made tracks for the corner of
Pike and Main streets, to " see the
show" Taken altogether, run

New Jerusalem, been robbed of his
pants and a sum Of money. The
man called at Mr.. Perkins's early
Monday morning, with horse
blanket wrapped around him. and
told his story. The indignation of
the people Of Dayton on hearing this
report may be imagined.
ANOTHER MAN ROBBED.
Mr.. Perkins had hardly finished

As he wanted t. go to bed with his

At 3 o'clock the night watchman
aroused him, accompanied him across
