Runaway Accidents.

Yesterday afternoon James Grogan was
driving into Fourth street, from K, when,
owing to the fact that the street was to a
considerable extent occupied by a crowd
gathered about patent medicine vender,
his vehicle struck against another and was
upset, the horse running away. Grogan
was dragged some distance by the capsized
buggy, and was considerably bruised and
shaken up. 1t is surprising that people are
not hurt more frequently, owing to the
blockading of street corners by the crowds
gathered about the fakirs."
There was also a runaway on l street
yesterday afternoon, team belonging 10
George Stringer running away between
Sixth and Seventh streets, causing him to
be thrown from the wagon and hurt, more
especially about the face and arm. The
horses ran to Fifth and | streets, where, in
attempting TO enter a Chinaman's store,
thew were CAPTURED

The Republican City Central Committee
met last evening and nominated cand dates
for School Directors as follows First Ward
w. NJ. Petrie; Second Ward, A. Conklin
Fourth Ward, III. c. Chapman. AS there
was no Committeeman present from the
Third Ward, the nomination of a Director
for that section of the city was postponed
until this evening. It seems to be the i'm
preston that A. s. Hopkins viii be the
man.
The Democratic City Central Committee
met last evening and considered who were
the most available men they had for School
Directors Gentlemen were selected to rep
resent three of the wards, but, as it was not
certain they would accept, the whole matter
was laid over until this evening.

The Fountain of yitality,

The source Of physical energy and mental
activity is the blood. Let this become vi
tiated with bile, or thin and watery in con-
sequence of indigestion and non-assimila-
ton of the food, and an interruption of the
functions of the body, and q loss of stam-
ina, flesh and appetite ensues. Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters is tonic specially adapted
to restore all three. because it assists diges-
ton and assimilation, and removes bile
and other impurities from the circulation.
Protected and strengthened with this adj
mirable defensive invigorant, the system
defies influences inimical to health, to
which, if unregulated and feeble, it would
undoubtedly succumb. Constipation, often
an obstinate and chronic ailment, is en-
tirely removed by it, the liver, kidneys and
bladder reused from inaction and ten
dency to rheumatism effectually counter
acted. 1t also eradicates malarial disease.

Tho michigan Bar HOMICIDE.

Deputy Sheriff Karcher returned yester-
day morning from Michigan Bar, where he
had been to subpoena witnesses in the
Ruman-Hurst homicide case. As the re-
mains of the deceased were to be inferred
yesterday morning, decomposition having
set in, and it was desirable to use the wit
nesses while they were together, Justice
Grimshaw held an inquest Wednesday
night, the taking of testimony being con-
tinued until about o'clock next morning
The jury found that deceased came to his
death from pistol shot wound inflicted by
C. A. Rumau, but did not determine
whether the latter's act was justified, as the
Grand Jury was about to take action in the
premises. Yesterday the Grand Jury took
the case up, investigated it thoroughly, and
ignored the bill against Mr.. Ruman. which
fact will be included in its report to be
made to-day

The Vote of Yolo County.

The Yolo Democrat has taken the pains
to compile statistics in regard to the vote
cast in that county for Governor since 1851.
In that year there were but 474 votes cast.
This year there were 1854 cast which is
quite an increase. The following table
shows the vote, beginning with the first
election held in the State: 1851, 474; 1858.
906; 1855, 1,l63; 1857. 1.113; 1850, 1891;
1851, 1.757; 1868, 1858; 1867, lao; 1871,
$780, 1875, 2,194; 1879, 2,52S; 1882, 2,572;
1886 2sS4 This would show an increase
of 2,410 votes in thirty.five years, or an
estimated increase of 1900 people in the
same time, which is good showing.

The Cause of the Rash Act.

A correspondent of the RECORD UNION
gave some facts in yesterdays issue relative
to the suicide of young Shearer at Chal-
lenge Mills. The following, from the
Marysville appeal of yesterday, throws
some light upon the cause that led to his
rash act Information was brought to this
city yesterday of somewhat sensational
suicide at Challenge Mills on the evening
previous. The surmises formed a theme
for gossip during the day among those who
claimed, or thought that they had become
acquainted with the facts surrounding the
deplorable incident. From the source
which an appeal reporter secured his in
formation, it appears that the suicide S
name was Thomas Shearer, young man
about 26 years of age, and employed at the
mills as book-keeper by A. NJ. Leach. His
nature was said to be very impressionable,
and that he became infatuated with a
young lady living in the locality, who re-
ceived his attentions without the least idea
of being serious. He apparently was seri-
Gus, though, but had not the courage to
make himself explicit, and when he ascer-
tanned that she had accompanied gentle
man friend to social gathering, while on
visit in this city, wrote a letter full OF
condemnatory language, which the young
lady resented in reply, and the receipt OF
which is supposed to have so worked upon
him that he took his own life

Gently preached in one of the oldest
churches in the 1" old city of London AS
he entered the porch he was met by a
rotund and dignifed beadle, who led him
10 the vestry-room, and, pointing to two
decanters. said: Will you take sherry or
port, sir?n The parson smiled at, not
with, the beadle, who then explained that
about three hundred years ago a good
woman of the parish, dying, left certain
sum for the purchase of wine and sweet
cakes for the clergy. and since that time
wine and cakes have been regularly sup

Further Earthquake Disturbances al
Charleston and Other Points.

The recurrence early Saturday morning Of
the earthquake disturbances after period OF
about q week s rest was the cause Of consider
able uneasiness in Charleston. There wer. FIVE
distinct shocks at the following hours: II 40
Saturday morning, slight tremor only; so
A. NJ, sharp shock 3 2j A. NJ. tolerably
sharp; 10 A. NJ, slight tremor; 10 A NJ.
distinct shock, but not very sharp. OF th,se
the one at so A NJ, was the mos. p-o-
neunced. The Baltimore Suns correspondent
was sitting the second door of a large brick
building. writing, asd without any prenon-
tory rumbling the desk began to trenble. This
increased rapidly in force until the whole build
ing began to viorate. The tmbers in it could
be heard to groan and the windows to rattle
1t almost appeared as if the walls were waving
The characteristics of the sturbsnce were
fearfully like those of the one ca the night OF
the 3lst Of August. The shaking was accom-
panied by the subterranean rumbling, which
gradually died out as the climax Of the move
meut was reached. and things returned to their
normal condition. Two minutes after the
shock occurred there the operator at Summer
vile tslegra phsd that it had been felt there,
and few miustes later the same news came
from Augusta Since then information re
ceived indicates that il was felt pretty much
throughout the State. The shock. dc not ap-
pear TO have done any damage, nor did they
create anything approximatiag a panic. The
streets were crowded usual on that day, and
rebuilding and repairing are progressing as
rapidly as if an earthquake bad never been
heard Of. On all sides there seems to be dog
ged determination to 6gh. it out as long as the
ground is under foot, and to rebuild Charles
ton, in spite Of earthquakes. The amusement
season opened Friday night of last week with
a tremendous audience at the theatre, and even
the matinee Saturday drew large crowd of
women and children
