An Exciting Runaway.

Pedestrians on 18th street. opposite the treas
ury, were considerably startled this afternoon
at about 80 o'clock by the spectacle of horse
running away and dragging behind him an
overturned carriage and a man who had been
thrown out. He was holding on to the reins,
and had it not been for the prompt work of
a small colored boy. who ran out into the street
and stopped the animal. there would have been
great damage done. When the man was picked
up he seemed to be UNCONSCIOUS, but it was
soon found that he was very badly intoxicated
and had not sustained any injuries.
He had let his horse get beyond his control,
and as be swept around the corner from Penn
sylvanis avenue one Of his wheels caught in
one Of buggy standing by the curb and both
were tilted over.
A special policeman, belonging to the bank
at the corner OF New York avenue and 18th
street. ran down and then hurried off to call
q patrol wagon, for it was feared that
the man WAS badly injured. While he was
gone, however, the man reused him
self and was helped into his carriage. A col
ored boy got in with him and they started of
toward Georgetown at a rapid pace. They had
just reached the upper corner OF the treasury
when the patrol wagon with three policemen in
1t whisked around the lower corner.

cipient This is not original either. II it had
never been found out before. however, the
student Of human nature could find it album
dainty demonstrated in this city.
For a number Of years past there have been
efforts on the part OF the students IN the public
schools to do what they could in the way of
contributions to relieve the poor and needy.
Some have helped the poor in their midst while
others have taken more or less active past in
assisting in the work Of the Children's Christ
some of the other school divisions the
schools have turned over the bulk of their
contributions to the police for distribution
among the poor of that section. This worked
well, for the police in their rounds have a
splendid chance to know of cases of real desti-
tuition where relief is necessary. The Asso-
ciated Charities ard the G. A.. R. have also done
splendid work in the way of making Christmas
day of happiness for those who might other

This year when the fact became evident that
there were to be no Christmas clubs The
EVENING STAR made the suggestion that the
plan which had worked so we'll in some Of the
sections Of the city should be extended to all
and the children should hold a sort of general
pound party, each one bringing something that
would help some needy person. There are in
the public schools of Washington about 81. 900
children. Start an army like that to work
doing kindly acts and what man can estimate
the good that must result?
Not only does a supply Of provisions and
clothing make most welcome addition to the
scant possessions Of an impoverished family,
but il it is a child that ministers to their
needs lesson is learned that never

need and who find it hard task to keep
their children at their desks. In such cases
the other pupils learned how charity begins at
home. As a rule the donations were articles Of
real worth. and while most of tho clothes had

these there were numerous packages of cloth

HOW THE COLLECTION GREW.
In many OF the schools, especially Of the
older grades, there were contributions of
money that footed up q very tidy sum. This
was the case in sections Of the city where the
pupils were from families in good cir
cumstances. Still the essential thing was
to give something. There was scarcely child
that was not able to give its mite. In one of
the buildings in . section where there
are many poor people the teachers told
the children that they could all bring o

FoUR LITTLE GIRLS.
OF course on such an occasion a. this there
were any number Of interesting and often
pathetic incidents. In one of the uptown
school rooms there are four little girls who
were born in foreign lands, and who are so
Christmas in their little stockings. Two of
and one from Bulgaria The latter is one Of a
family of four that live all in one
room. The only wage Garner in the
family receives so cents . day at mending
shoes. Their room is given rent free
by some kind-hearted people. Under ordi-
nary circumstances how much Of Christmas
do you suppose that little girl would have had?
But she is having a lovely time this year as
result of the kindly spirit that seems to have
taken such strong hold on the little ones. It
seemed that not one of these foreigners had
ever owned o doll.
..Ho," said one Of tho more fortunate ones,
GIVE got seventeen"
That's nothing" remarked another, II
guess I've got eighteen"
1t SO happened that the young lady teacher
learned of this circumstance and asked her
little girls il they did not think is would be
lovely for those that had more toys than
they needed to share with the others
who had none. They all thought 30 and
