THERE are some other things which
ought to be guarded against as much as
extinguishing fires. When an alarm of
fire is sounded, the department, or a por-
tion Of it, turns ost peH nell and the more
crowded the street from which the alarm
is sent in, the more reckless the steamers.
hose carts and trucks seem to rash along.
On Saturday there was an alarm of fire
from the corner of Fourth and Jackson
streets. The chief of the department set
an example bY running his horse down
Third street at pace which endangered
life and limb. Then followed the steamers
end other apparatus at break-neek speed,
with their noisy clangor. Teams were
frightened and pedestrians were entirely
alta discount at the crossings. 1t was al
most miraculous that no serious mishap.
involving life and limb, occurred. The
cause of the Juror was the
explosion of a gasoline lamp
which did not require the services of the
frenen at all. Of course it is not safe to
assume that the services are not going
to be needed when an alarm comes in,
bat the delay of a few seconds in reaching
fire which might involve the loss of con-
siderable property would be preferable to
killing or mangling citizens in a Wild
AgAt through crowded street.

THE Critic newspaper gives much premi.
nence to the proposition that cle-gymen be
no3onger chosen for college presidents. The
suggestion is very wise one, but it will
be long time before it is adopted. The
influences students come under during
their college careers lamentably begets
permanent moral injury and far too often
absolute ruin, in more instances than a
high grade of manhood is developed. This
will continue until a new policy of college
management is adoBted.

THE DUNN TRIAL.
Especial Telegram to the Globe.l
CHICAGO, May I'm the Dunn murder
trial to-day the first witness called was
Michael Mcdonald, who was farther exam
med and swore to seeing revolver ia
Elllett's pocket an hour before his death.
u. .. Howell, saloon keeper, swore Ell
llo1 came into his saloon inquiring for
Dunn, said he was hunting Dunn and had
couple OF pistols in his pocket. Witness
sa" the pistols. This was two nights be-
iore the shooting. James Mead testified
tha1 ne was II Clayton's saloon on the
evening OF the 26th of January. When Ell
l!ott came lHto his place Dunn was not
there. Elliott said, 'Well, I'll wait for the
d. A man came in and Elliot put his
hand to his coat pocket and drew a revol-
yer. Witness went out and found Dunn
and persuaded him to keep away FROM the
place. Mead testified further that he had
conversation with appetite Bill' the
night OF the shooting. Lang
don told him the shooting affair
had ruined his business, and he
intended to down Dunn for it. Walter
Williams, a partner of Clayton's, corrobo-
rated the last witness, as did Thomas c.
Newman, manager of the saloon. George
Hoffman was the next witness. He saw
Elliott the day he was killed. Elliott had
just come back from the west, and people
there had called him a coward. He had
come back determined to show that he was
not a coward, and he would fix Dunn

ton, had told witness that he would leave
town for $3.50. Thomas w. Chandler
proprietor of the South Park hotel, testi-
| fed to a conversation with Elliott after the
publication of interviews with Elliott in
the papers about the Harry Hill trouble
Elliott said if he ever saw Dunn he would
put bullet through his head. At las a
n. the defense had no moro witnesses or
hand, although there are sew
eral more to testify. Therefore the
court adjourned until Monday morning
Judge Smith made an aadres:
10 the jury, IN which he cempEmented the
attorneys on both sides fer the speed with
which the trial had been conducted, and
prOphesied an early termination next week
The defense said that, with the exception
of the testimony of Dunn himself, the
testimony they would have to offer Monday
would not take up more than two hours
Considerable surprise is being expressed
by those watching the trial that State:
Attorney Mills was content to close hi
case without proving that Davis and Plais
ted took Ellistt's revolver away from hin
the day OF the shooting, and also that he
did not introduce testimony as to Dunn
character. The first omission is explained
by the statement that Mr.. Mills is anxious
to keep the fact that Elliott had revolve
at any time as far in the background al
possible, as the defense rely upon his pre-
vioEs actions and threats as justification
for the shooting.

A Live Man in the HearSe.

When returning to this city few
davs AGO from Belle Isle, where he had
made burial, an undertaken overlook
decrepit old German who had scarcely
vitality enough to drag himself out of
the way of the undertaker's team. Per-
ceiving the condition of the old man,
the undnrtaker reined his horses and
asked him where he was going. "Hotel,
Geddes." he said "Would you like to
ride pr the undertaken asked '.Yah!"
was the curt reply. The undertaken
got down from his high seat and told
the worn travler that the only place he
had for him to ride was within the
hearse, and if he would accept such
accommodations he was perfectly well
come to do so. '.All right" he said,
and the undertaken threw open the
doors of the hearse and assisted the old
man into it. He placed his bundle un-
floor of the hearse, and the undertaken
closed the doors and resumed his Jour-
ney. Canal boys stopped their horses,
passers-by gazed in amazement, small
boys followed the hearse for miles, and
drmfounded people looked out from
their windows or front yards at the
strange spectacle. ''Stop! the mans
not dead"' shouted crowd just outside
the limits of Geddes, but the undertake
er drove on all the more rapidly, with
the threatening yells of the crowd ring
ING in his ears. When the undertaken
reached Geddes he released his passen-
ger, who was profuse in his thanks for
the hospitality extended. Between one
and two hundred people collected at
the spot where the man was let out
and demanded an explanation of the
undertaken, who drove away without
satisfying them.-Swacuse (M ~
