il must be au expeditions jubilee, tor the
cloud OF republican victory was looming up
slowly but steadily. Therefore at an early
hour in the evening the sherman band was
chartered and a procession OF some 200 fell
in behind nearly every other man with a
funnel shaped instrument made Of protected
American tin. They advanced up Church
street, hcrelGed 10y the strains of tine band
and the roar of a hundred horns, backed up
by the siren melody OF foot bath tubs

ing is growing somewhat cramped for

ton will contain a large number OF ethno-
logical articles, including stone axes from
New Guinea and New Zealand ancient
stone and bronze implements from Europe,
two fine models Of ruined cliff dwellings,
and series Of busts and life masks illus
trating tho physiognomy OF the different
races of men. There are also q number of
skulls and teeth of extinct vertebrates from
the Western States, and a collection Of Eu-
rOPean fossils. Quite n number Of rare

Prof. Perkins also collected himself quito
an extensive series Of fossils in the Oneida

represented this year. The republicans

good shape, and the result is what it is.
1t should show the republicans of Burlington
that succeas cannot he taken for granted, or
achieved without effort. In the growth of
our city, IS in many other large towns,
the democratic vote has grown faster than
the republican. The margin between the
two parties has been a small one. at best.

A FRlGHTFUL RUNAWAY.

Mrs. Douglas and son of shelburne are
Thrown from Their Wagon, but Not Sc
riously inju-ed.
There was a frightful runaway on Church
street Saturday at Il o'clock and yet no
one seriously hurt, a fact, which under
the circumstances seems almost miraculous
Moran's delivery team was driving down
the street and ran against the delivery cart
OF L. \. q \. \. Drew, the force Of which
broke the thill straps Of the latter team and
frightened the horse which dartel up the
street, increasing its speed at every jump.
There were several teams on the street but
their drivers managed to pilot the steeds to
one side in time TO avert a collision until
the runaway animal had gone block and
half. 1t was in front OF brakes shoe store
that the climax came. A team handled by
| Mrs. Charles Douglas of Sheburne was just
crossing from the right to the left side of the
street, unaware of the approaching danger
When i'll n diagonal position across the
street, the cart behind the runaway horse
caught on the hind wheel of their wagon
| hurting Mrs. Douglas and her little son,
who WAS with her into the air. The wagon
was turned completely around while the
hOrse was folled to the ground. Mr.. Drew's
horse was also thrown down by the force OF
the collision. People passing quickly gave
their assistance and held the horses until
they could be freed from the vehicles. Mrs.
Douglas was helped into brakes shoe store.
She received q severe fall striking her
shoulders, wrenchng her back badly and
receiving other bruises. The bog was more
fortunate, receiving only fow scratches.
TO the aStonishment of all the eyewitnesses
OF the affair neither the wagons or harnesses
were broken by the collision.
