mistakes we care little for; others make us

as result some Fancy Stock on hand that

and attractive in every way. Alas our
admiration for the beautiful in art has had
the edge taken OF it. We pine for n1oneu.

a LIVELY RUNAWAY.
A Brewery Horse Scatters Himself
and Buggy in the Street.

A Brewery Horse Scatters Himself
and a Buggy in the Street.
There was runaway and a smash-up at
Bay and Drayton streets yesterday after
noon. Manager ]. G. Mahn of the Savau-
nah Brewing Company hitched the fine iron
gray horse belonging to the company,
attached to new top buggy, in front of
the cotton exchange.
The railing of the hitching stand gave
way and frightened the horse, which broke
away and dashed up the street, leaving
wheels and other fragments of the buggy
on the street corner. The horse made a
final dash around by the postoflice and into
Bay street lane on the right, where he
struck dray and left a completely demol>
ished buggy.
The horse struck one of his right forefeeb
against wheel Of the dray or the curbing,
seriously injuring himself and leaving
traces of blood with the buggy. The buggy
is total loss and the horse may be also.

That Mistake in the Count.

Editor Morning Ne,Us: IAN Error in the
Count" is easily explained. The managers
Of one Of the boxes announced 100 votes
each for the following candidates, viz.
Messrs. Carr, Dillon, Roman, Olmstead,
MCGOWAN, Dixon, and Tebeau, and the
Same was recorded on the tally Sheets
After said announcement, the conclusion
was arrived at that the managers would
announce the total vote of their
respective boxes for each candidate and
the tally sheet keepers to govern
themselves accordingly. l, as tally sheet
keeper, asked the question. ''if the one
hu dred votes, which had been called and
already entered on the tally sheets, should
not be Cancelled" and the answer was "no. "
That mo" was a mistake, and was the cause
of the error.
Briefly, in conclusion, allow me to state
that the managers of the election we're good
and true men, and the error in question was
not Of character to reflect, in the slightest
degree, upon their integrity. E. A. SILVA.

Robbins Case Consumes Three Hours,
and No Decision Reached.
The grand jury Of the superior court
wrestled tor three hours yesterday with the
case of John B. Robbins, who has been in
Jail since last August charged with blowing
up Billiards. boarding house on Congress
street.
At o'clock last night, after examining a
large number Of witnesses, the jury ad-
1ourned until this morning at 10 O'Clock,
when several more wit .esSes will be ex-
amined, and the case will probably be settled
enc way or another. This is the
second time the grand jury has
considered Robbins case Few people
are surprised at the jury hanging fire on
the question, as the evidence against Rob-
bins is all circumstantial, and not very
strong, either.

Two Boys Rescued in the Desert just

Two boys, Alberto Ramirez and Patrieio
Gonzales, rode from Yuma south toward
Sonora. recently. and lost themselves amidst
the shifting desert sands. A search party,
led by Alberto's brother, Carlos, started to
find them on Sunday. The sequel to this is
thus told in the Yuma Times:
Carlos Ramirez found the tracks of the
lost boys on Sunday morning, and soon DIS
covered that they were in terrible plight,
as their trail showed that they did not know
which way they were going, and indicated
that the boys were craZed On Monday
afternoon Carlos fund his brother wander

his body, which was terribly blstered by
the burning sun; his tongue was black and
swollen, sticking out several inches. While
his liuS were cracked and bleeding. Carlos
called to Alberto, but received no response,
and his glitterng eyes seemed more like
those of wild animal than those of hui
man being.
Jumping from his horse, Carlos threw
one arm around his brothers neck and IN
the shortest imaginable time had forced his
flask of liquor between his bleeding lips
and by this energetic measure succeeded in
making the unfortunate man swallow a lit
tie of the stimulant. Carlos then bathed
his brothers head with water from his can
teen, bound wet cloth around his mouth,
| and after throwing his coat around Alberto,
telling him to remain quietly at the place
where he was found, Carlos jumped on his
horse and soon joined his companions who
| made all possible haste to Alberto.
In a little while Alberto by signs indi-
Gated that his companion Patricio was near
by. Search was made and he was found
lying alongside of his dead horse, which
had persisted for the want of water. Pa
tricio seemed to be even in worse condi-
ton than Ramirez.

water. They finally reached Yuma, from
which they were only twenty miles away,

incision was made from point opposite the
right ear bordering along the bone to the mid
die line of the chin. Then the arteries were
tied, vessels secured and flap was dssected
from the bone, exposing the growth. The
bone was then yided near the chin and
carefully dssected from the muscular at
tachments clear up to its joint near the
temple. This was effected with consider
able difficulty owing to the patients en-
feebled condition and the brittleness of the
bone at that period of life. After the re-
moval of the bone there was considerable
hemorrhage, which was speedily checked by
hot water congresses. The edges of the
wound were then brought together by means
of silk ligatures, and the usual dressings
were applied. BE rallied promptly from
