THE SALVATIONISTS
Cause Stampede of Horses on Spring
Street.

The bravery OF three men prevented
what would undoubtedly have been a
fatal accident early last evening. The
team of the cable grocery, at the corner
of Spring and Second streets, was scared
by the gyrations and unearthly noise
made by a passing detachment of the
salvation army, and dashed down Spring
street. The streets were crowded at the
time, and it was a miracle that no one
was killed, or even hurt, before the
horses were brought to standstill by
three plucky men, who with adroitness
caught them by the harness. ness A horse
the two occupants also had a narrow es-
cape from being thrown out. 1t was an
indignant crowd that gathered around,
and many expressions condemnatory OF
the salvation army nuisance were heard
on all sides.

A SERIOUS ACCIDENT.
Captain Thornton Badly Injured Last
Night,

Captain Thornton, the under-sheriff,
met with a serious accident last even
ing. He and Martin Aguirre drove into
the country on business yesterday.
Coming home, both were thrown
out of the buggy. Martin
Aguirre hung on to the lines and
escaped with few slight bruises. Cap
tain Thornton was seriously hurt, how
ever. He was brought into Los Angeles
and taken to the Sunnyside, on North

doctor who was called in failed to
find any break, but the Captain suffers
such intense pain that at one O'Clock
this morning it was deemed expedient
to put him under the influence of ether.
1t is thought he is hurt internally.

winds up review of some of his more
important decisions by saying-"that

ment and power of reasoning have
marked Judge Miller as eminently
qualified for the place to which he
was called by president Lincoln.
Judge Miller has been on the bench
twenty-eight years-longer than any

Court-and has written more opinions
of the court than any Judge living

Judge Miller was a native of Ken-
lucky, but could not endorse the
proslavery sentiments of his section
and removed to Iowa in 1869. His
appointment as justice came twelve
years later and, as remarked by the
Times Democrat, for twenty-eight
years his reputation as a jurist has
steadily grown. He was always the

heet which he proceeded to tear into

sheet which ne proceeded 10 tear into
strips.
This occupied no longer time than is
required to tell of it, and in q minute or
two he held in his hands an improvised rope
strong enough to support the weight of
his fair companion or himself, and Of q
length sufficient to reach the ground.
"Now!" said Cole. Don't be afraid.
You'll soon be out of this house and be-
yond the reach Of your enemies"
As he spoke he passed the rope around
her form and knotted it together under
her arms.
Then he assisted her to the ledge of the
open window.
With infinite care he pushed her for
ward, and. having braced himself for the
task, he began lowering her toward the
ground.
This proved quito labor;ous but con-
sumed only little time.
Soon the strain ceased, and looking
forth Cole saw, to his great joy, that
Berenice had reached the ground in
safety and was removing the improvised
rope.
He lost no time in tying it securely to
a steam heater which stood ne the
window, and in a moment was ready to
make the descent.
At that instant cry caused him 10 look
downward.
To his utter CONSERVATION he saw in
the rather indistinct lighi that the young
lady was struggling in the grasp of q
powerful man.
At that instant en- exclamatio of
mingled rage and triumph caused him to
look upward.
At the window, an open knife in his
hand, stood his enemy, Amon Sears.
The next instant the blade described
circle in the air and descended.
Then our hero felt himself falling rap
idly downward.

A Pleasure Trip Around the Word.

We frequently meet parties consist
ing of two or more persons who are on
trips around the world. SO many
thousand persons are now taking this
trip and the number is so rapidly in
creasing that it will soon be a protita
bic venture to establish lines of steam
ers for this express purpose, so that
persons in London, Paris, or New
York can buy tickets around the planet
as they now do between these respec-
tive cities. AS soon as the projected
railway is built across Siberia the cir
cult of the world can be nearly made
by rail. But a 5000 mile railway
trip across Asia will not be as agree
able for most travellers as the trip
across the Pacific in frst-class
steamer. -PullmdH journal.
