much that few weeks before the ST.
Peter fire he had recovered sufficiently to
leave the asylum and was brought home
by his father
On Saturday last he developed signs OF
returning ALTERATION, and the malady in
creased so fast that he became violently
insane. Yesterday morning he eluded
the vigilance of his friends and broke for
the bridge. His wild conduct excited the
attention of the officer, who reached the
middle span just as he was climbing over
the rail. He was put under arrest and
brought to the county jail, where he will
remain until committed to st. Peter.

ANOTHER ACCIDENT.

Col. Allen, of the Merchants, One of the
Practical Sufferers.
Col. \. Allen, the widely known and
popular mine host of the Merchants ho-
tel, came near furnishing the GLOBE re-
porter with a tragical occurrence yester-
day. About $3.50 o'clock i'm the afternoon
the colonel left the hotel with three of
the ladies of his household in a
double-seated sleigh, behind his fine
young team of bays, for spin over the
snow. After riding about for an hour
and Il half and when on the return
home, on Dayton's avenue, the colonel
was attacked with faintness or vertigo,
rendering him unconscious, and causing
him to drop the reins The horses loosed
from restraint started forward rapidly and
turning corner abruptly overturned the
sleigh, spilling out the occupants indis-
criminately. Fortunately the horses had
not reached a high rate of speed when
the turn was made, so that in the over
turn the ladies escaped with no injury
worthy OF mention, while the Colonel, in
his unconscious and helpless condition,
emerged with slight bruises. Again
fortunately, the misfortune was witnessed
by a gentleman on the street, by whom
the horses were stopped without difficulty
and before any damage to them or the
outfit had been done. BY this gentleman
Col. Allen, still unconscious, was placed
in the sleigh, and the ladies seated, the
return trip was made to the hotel in all
haste and the colonel conveyed to his
room, where under the ministering infiu-
ences of Dr. Murphy he was Shortly
brought to consciousness. At O'Clock
last evening the colonel ventured down
to the Office to show his friends he was all
right, but though he stoutly insisted he
felt no i'll effects from the accident, it was
noticed by his friends that he moved
about with great moderation, and that he
especially favored his left leg, upon which
side he struck when thrown from the

CLOSE OF THE OPERA SEASON.

Era DiavOlO" and martha" as Given by
the Abbott Company Yesterday.
The Abbott Opera company favored the
st. Paul public with two performances,
yesterday, of what may be properly called
broken English opera At the matinee
- Fra Diavolo' was the card, with Mr..
Castle in the title role, and Miss Julia
Rosewald as Zerlina. Miss Rosewald is a
new acquaintance here, and although she
possesses much artistic merit and voice
of power and sweetness, especially in the
upper register, she has unfortunately but
an imperfect command of the English
language, and her pronounced accent
seriously married some of the sweetest
passages in her role. Mr.. Castle made an
excellent Fra .Diavolo, and Mr.. James and
Mr.. Tams made a good pair of brigands,
though the makeup of the latter was q
little too highly colored, especially about
the nose. .-'--'r ~ -.
In the evening Martha" was given
with Miss Abbott as Martha, Miss Maure
as Nancy, Brignoli as Lionel and Mr.
James as Plunkett. Miss Abbott was
fresh and enthusiastic as ever, and enact
ed the role with all the vivacity and
grace for which she has become SO Justly
celebrated. Her solos were marvels OF
brilliant execution, and in her concerted
pieces she displayed remarkable vocal
power. She as well as her leading sup
porters were called before the curtain al
the close of each act, while her rendering
of "The Last Rose of Summer elected q
hearty encore Miss Maurel made ar
exceedingly graceful Nancy Her
vocalization was exceptionally free from
faults. She is also developing into al
accomplished actress. Brignoli's Lione
was an oddity While the rest of tn,
artists sang their lines in English, he sans
his in Italian. The change was not ;
disagreeable one, as the mellifiuou
tongue of his native land grated less up
| on the ear than would his imperfect ar
ticulation of English. He was in bette
voice than on Monday evening, and hi
execution displayed the excellent ar
which he has mastered. He has neve
appeared to better advantage in st. Paul
and received many fiattering testimonial
of appreciation from the audience. MI
James made Il very acceptable Plunkett
The season just closed has been pro
titable one for the company, and it leave
behind a much more kindly feeling thai
it did last year, for the reason that al
the engagements were fulfilled to the let

cally heretofore, but defects were over

RiHSEY T.fKES THE FIELD.

There has been no time since the death
knell of Alex Ramsey was sounded six
years ago when he has not desired to re-
turn to the Senate-and to that extent
he has been a perpetual candidate The
effort of the Pioneer Press to land him
before the public by means of double
loaded editorial in yesterdays edition. as
candidate is simply an open movement
where before it was covert
Mcmillan, in his stupid innocence, has
imagined that Ramsey was not in the
field. He has even thought Ramsey would
support him (lIcMlllan), because he
(Ramsey) had said he would This shows
the unsophisticated character of McMil-
Ian. Of course Bamsey promised to sup
port Mcmillan. He promised all the other
candidates the same thing That is way
he has. Ramsey IS the spider and the
other fellows are the flies.
The Ramsey gang evidently think they
are strong enough to win or they would
not have thrown off their mask. 1t will
be a nice dose for the rest of the Repub-
licau party to have the Ramsey regime
eStorcd
Swag will now flow freely. Ramsey
will buy what is necessary to secure the
prize and members of the legislature who
are on the make" now have an oppor-
tunity.
The members of the legislature who
wish handsome income must play it

The Car Drivers Christmas Gift.

Since the people wish to ride on Christ
mas as on other days, the employees OF
the Street Railway company will have tc
work Saturday while others are taking
their holiday. Superintendent Walsh,
mindful of their deprivation, last yeal
set apart the days receipts for equal di-
vision among the employees of the com
pany, and will this year repeat the
Christmas gift, The boys last year had
IA considerable addition to what the
ordinary receipts of the railway would
have been, from many persons dropping
dimes, quarters and even larger sums
into the boxes, and though all the en-
ployes share equally, it will be well
enough for regular travellers, who have
preferences among the drivers, to re-
member that there isn't a driver who
wouldn't be glad, as all ought to be on
Christmas, to take in a big return for
the days work Give them a good big

ANOTHER RUN4W1Y DISASTER.
Mrs. Ben Thompson Seriously Injured.

Mrs. Ben Thompson Seriously Injured.
Another frightful runaway casualty oc.
| CURED yesterday which like other affairs
of the kind that have happened within
the past few days, resulted in shocking
but fortunately not fatal injuries to wei
| known and highly esteemed lady Of St
Paul
The runaway to which the unhappy
affair is owing took place on West Third
street few minutes before II O'Clock
yesterday morning, and terminated alb
ruptly at Seven Corners.
Shortly before the time named the
driver of a team and cutter belonging tc
| Farwell & Co., the. hardware dealers
hitched his rig in front of Paul Fabel's
shoe shop on Third street above the Met
| ropolitan hotel. During the drivers alb
sencc the team became frightened and
| managed to break the hitching strap
starting at a furious rate of speed west
on Third street
The animals had clear track until
Seven Corners was reached, when it be-
came apparent to the OnlOokerS that a
smashup of some kind was almost newt
able
Among those who saw the approach
OF the ruDaways was the driver of horse
| and buggy belonging to DR.. Brisbine, and
containing besides himself Mrs. niamin
Thompson
The driver drew in towards the iunc-
ton of Eagle and Third streets, which
was unfortunate, for few seconds after
wards the runawayS cut Il tangent for
that direction and when a few feet from
the buggy they colidcd with lamp
post. The lamp post hardly resisted the
shock, which came with such force as TO
throw one of the horses almost into the
buggy.
In his struggles to get out the buggy
was overturned, throwing Mrs Thomp-
son and the driver to the ground The
horses fell and were secured, thus avoid
ing further calamity, and assistance was
at once rendered Mrs. Thompson. who
was bruised and terribly demoralized
from the shock
She was carried to Wilkes drug store
insensible, and DR.. Brisbine was sum-
moned, who did all in his power to aid
the sufferer On regaining her senses a
conveyance was procured and she was
taken to her residence on Summit avenue.
An examination showed that while she
was badly and painfully injured no bones
had been broken and no internal injuries
were sustained.
The driver, whose name is Andrews.
was painfully bruised in the face, but is
able to be around DR.. Brisbine's buggy
was shattered to the consistency of duck
feed
So far as Mrs. Thompson is concerned
the accident is particularly distressing,
as her husband has been pros;rated for
number of weeks and she had been a
constant attendant at his bedside
