AMEND IT.

The railroad law ought to be amended al
least in one particular. When it fixes abso.
lutely uniform rates for passenger tariff
there ought 10 be a proviso permitting rail-
road companies TO make special rates FOR
fairs. religious gatherings, political meetings
etc. etc. whenever in the judgment Of the
officers of the road such meetings were o.
i;nportance enough to warrant ii. Now, as
The law stands if any road makes rates for
one state fair they must for ALL for one
county fair, they must for all. one corr
ventioa or religious association they must foI
all or violate the law. which says there shall
be 10 discrimination. As the law stands
now it is embarrassing TO both people and

a FEARFUL RIDE.

Between five and six o'clock on Sunday
evening as Col. s +. .Jocelyn with his wife
and tour children were driving on Waco
street they met with an accident that they
viii not soon forget.
They were lust about 10 turn into Central
avenue when two Young men mounted upon
bcvclesA suddenly came around the corner.
The horses became frightened and reared
and plunged One of the young men seeing
the danger Jumped off his vehicle and at
tempted to catch the lines but failed. The
team dar,ed forward and one of the tugs be-
came unhitched, the pole dropped upon the
ground and plowed along the street while
Col. .Iocelyn held on to the lines until they
sunk into the flesh. The infuriated animals
dashed along at "A fearful speed and soon
ierked the lines from the hands of Col. Joce-
lvn, leaving him powerless to do anything
bu. to speak to the horses which Gained
them down somewhat SO that they did not
run SO viciously Us before. 1t was fearful
sight to see the helpless family whlrled help
lesslv along to what seemed to be certain
death. The horses ran toward the Fort
Scott road on the next street above YAK
street. When they We're coming toward the
Track Col. .locelyn felt sure that the pole
would catch against the rail and he dreaded
the result. At this juncture the team be-
came detached from the carriage and left
the terrified family still unhurt IN the car
riage on the middle Of the street. BY tins
time a number of men had arrived upon the
scene and the horses were caught The
shock rendered Mrs. .locelyn unconscious
for two hours after reaching home. She has
been afflicted with heart disease for some
time and it was indeed fortunate that the ac-
cident did not terminate fatally for her. One
lady who had seen the terrible position OF
the family became SO frightened that she
tainted Col. Joceyn's mind had been 50
worked up over the occurrence that he de-
clared that if the council did not take some
action in the matter of preventing bicycling
upon the public streets. he would deal out
summary punishment himself upon any such
who cane in his way. Many citizens were
met yesterday who declared that bicycle
riding on the public streets within the cor
poratlon must be stopped.
