Rev. Br. Todd Thrown From Ills Car
 rIage and Harry Elson and Son
 Thrown From Their Carriage on
 Orange Street-A Runaway and Col-
 1ls1On.
 An exciting runaway occurred on Orange street last evening at about half past five o'clock. As Rev. Dr. Todd was driving down Orange street towards Grove at that time one of the, forward wheels of his car- riage suddenly snapped and broke. leaving but few spokes remaining in the hub.
 His accident so frightened the doctors horse that he became unmanageable and be- gan to run down Orange street at furious rate of speed. All the efforts of Dr. Todd to check his course were useless and it seemed every minute as if the carriage would be dashed to pieces and it's occupant thrown to the ground or terribly mangled.
 As the horse neared the railroad bridge at the corner of Grove street he was rushing along at breakneck pace and barely escaped running into the railings of the bridge which separate the road from the sidewalk.
 Just at this minute MT. Harry Bison, vice president of Bigelow 6 Company, was driv- ing up Orange street in carriage. His son, a lad, was with him. When opposite the open lot near the bridge, where the prohibition tent lately stood. Dr. Tod9's frantic horse ran against MT. Eleon's team and the next moment tangled mass of horses, carriages and men blocked the road.
 The top and seat of MT. Elson's team was taken as completely off as if it was purposely done, and thrown quite distance. Dr. Todd was thrown upon the walk and such was the momentum that he rolled over and over sew eral times before he could recover himself.
 MT. Elson and the boy were hurled like flash into the lot near by, and both were quite severely hurt. MT. Bison had his face cut in several places, and it was reported that one of his ribs was broken. MT. Elson walked to his home on Pearl street, distance of three quarters of 8 mile. Several bad bruises were made upon the boys body. Dr. Todd was probably hurt most of anyone, but his escape was almost miraculous, con- sidering the speed of both horses when the collision occurred.
 MT. Elsons horse ran few blocks after the smashup, and was stopped. The doctors horse was brought to standstiu opposite the High school by being sntangled In the rum ming gear, and was thrown down, and caught.
 It was a narrow escape for all concerned. 4 few. years ago Ar. Bison was thrown from his carriage in a somewhat similar accident, and sustained bruises so serious as to confne him to his house for several weeks

 The board of commissioners sum up the comparative condition of the various steamer and hose houses as is given in the subjoined table. The return is the judgment of the board on the subject based upon the recent tour of inspection of the various houses. It will be seen that steamer 2 "goes to the head of the class" and 6 heater or better kept house it would be hard to find the coun- try over. And we doubt if any steamer houses, as a class, in the country excel those of the New Haven fire department for neat neae. order and perfection of details.

Freder1ck Wardo VIII appear ab tne NeW Haven Opera House to- night in Richard III. /" Tomorrow afternoon "Gaston" will be pre- sented and "Galba, the Gladiator" i" in the evening. Nym Crinkle in speaking of "Gal- ba" says: 'fIn his impersonation of the Da- elan slave MT. Warde gives himself up who'll ly to the heroic requirements of the part. I was impressed with his truthful embodiment of what may be called the antique gladiator ia1 spirit. tGalba" is necessarily @ robust animal, effusive, demonstrHtive and impul- sive. This gladiator, trained to fight with wild beasts is in some aspects @ wild beast himself, and MT. Warde brought out all the rude passion, the physical prowess and the almost carnivorous rage which the wrongs of a tyrant would be apt to rouse in such na- ture. His great scene in the arena, where he is called upon to slsy his own daughter, was marked by tempestuous and passionate grief in action that had a magnetic effect up- on the audience.
 ART EXHIBITION.

 band has been engaged.

The Young Mems Republican club held a meeting last evening at their rooms and voted to tender an escort this evening to Senators Hawley and Platt, and afterwards will escort MT. Pettifer to the rink.

The Bathing Buffalo.
From the St. Louis Globe-Democra

From the St. Louis Globe Democrat.
Beet cattle are not Indigenous to any
portion Of jungle-covered Malaysia, the
buffalo finding substance there. But
the buffalo is not used for dairy pur-
poses, and it is seldom eaten except by
the poorer classes, chiefly Chinese.
The meat is tough and has an unpleas-
ant flavor. But at heavy draught, plow-
ing, log hauling and such uses the buff
flo is at home. He is larger and
stronger than the American OK. He
must have mudholes and creeks in
which he can wallow and battle. The
natives make great use of him for cult
waiting rice. But he must be unhitched
when he gets FESTIVE, for that is a sign
he wants to battle. And if the desire
isn't gratifed the buffalo straightway
becomes dangerous.
These buffaloes, the consul says, are
often in size and weight about half way
between a very large OK and an average
elephant. They have ponderous and
peculiar horns, somewhat like those OF
The American buffalo, only much longer.
They are mouse colored generally, have
very thin coating of hair, and some
times none at all except at the end of
the tail, on the ears and on the head.
This buffalo thrives best when he has
access to pond or sluggish creek. He
will take to this water, bury himself in
it up to the neck, and remain there
happy and content for five or six hours

From the Washington Critic.

WASHIIlgI
There's a pious and ignorant farmer
over in Virginia, who used to do little
extra work at preaching; but he hasn't
for several years now. On the occasion of
his last appearance, he selected for the
bible reading Jobs description of the
war horse, in which occurs the passage,
''He saith among the trumpets, Ha, Ia /;
and he smelleth the battle afar off" The
good man read along with increasing
fervor and emphasis until he came to
this, and then he rolled the sentence
forth: "He saith among the trumpets,
Hay, hay; and" But he never got any
further than that; for the people, forget
ting the sanctity of the place, Uttered,
and then went into such alaugh that the
meeting broke up in disorder, and the
farmer Quit the nl1lnit forever
