Exciting Ride on an Electric Car

NASHVILLE, Dec. 90 Seventeen pas
sengers on an electric car had an excit-
ing ride Friday morning. The car was
coming down a heavy grade ON Church
street when the me tor man discovered
that the brakes refused to work. The
passengers soon noticed the frightful
speed of the car, and all made rush
TO the door to jump off. The con-
duotor, however, with rare presence of
mind, closed the door, and allowed
none to get cut, which doubtless saved
many lives, as the car was running
nearly a mile a minute. Striking the
carve at the corner of Church and Col
lege streets, the car left the track and
ran a square on the bare ground before
its force was expended.

"These people give us a great deal Of
work." said a clerk in the tax office, "for
they bring handful of bills and silver
here with which to pay their taxes. They
probably take this in from day to day, and
at the end Of the year bring enough here
