A BAD ACCIDENT.
A Young Couple Sustain Serious
Injuries in q Runaway Wreck.

1t is not always that a pleasant evening
drive winds up in a sad catastrophe, but
such was the course of the ride INDUCED
in last night by Mr.. John Fraley and Miss
Minnie Hadnet. Early in the evening the
couple started out for drive, going over
the various streets of the city. South
Cherry street was entered upon and a
drive down the street to its southern
extremity was proposed. just as the
couple reached a place some distance
below Bucher street, Fraley says piece
of harness tore, frightening the horse
until he speeded along the street at a
breakneck run. When Charles street was
reached an effort was made to stop the
animal. 1t was OF no avail and he turned
the street corner rushing and swinging
like cyclone. The buggy was swung
around in the air and both occupants
thrown out, heavily striking the ground.
Miss Hadnet was forced against the
Stalder Bros. frame building and three
one inch boards were broken through
where she struck. Mr.. Fraley alighted
beside her she being thrown sideways.
The buggy followed and the cloth top
struck heavy glass window above where
the people lay. The falling pieces Of
glass struck the young lady in the face
and horribly mangled 1t. She also had
two teeth knocked out, but sustained no
broken bones. Mr.. Fraley's right leg was
fractured just above the knee. A man
named Purney picked up Miss Hadnet
and placed her in cab which had been
called, and she was taken to her rooms in
the Saxton Block. Schilling Sons
ambulance conveyed Mr.. Fraley to his
home at No. 159 West Ninth street. Drs.
Post and Marchand attended the wounded
parties.
One wheel was broken off the buggy
and the horse thrown to the ground when
the corner was turned.
Miss Hadnet is employed with DeVille
& Heffelman and is well known here.
Mr.. Fraley is also a popular young man
and has many sympathizing friends.

HIS GAME BLOCKED.

A. Kit Finds Burglar Crawling
Through the Transom and Scares Him
OF.
A. Kilt, the West Eighth street tailor
received quite fright from burglar last
night. Mr.. Kilt was In the back room Of
his shop when he espied a human form
creeping through the open transom of the
room. He gave yell and made q break
for some weapon with which to belabor
the midnight caller. The man who had
about pulled himself through the hole
heard the racket and regained the outside
In hurry. Mr.. Kilt rushed around to
several of the offices In the neighborhood
to secure aid in capturing the fellow. By
that time the burglar was seen by some of
the engine house boys leasurely walking
out from between the buildings and he
entered saloon nearby. where il was
aiterward learned he purchased glass of
beer while he was being looked for outside
When he had swallowed the fluid he
quickly disappeared. An excellent
description of the man has been given to
the police and 1t is thought he can easily
be caught.

Fowls in Small Runs.

Mr.. Legetmeir, the well known Eng
lish authority, says concerning the keep
ing of fowls in small runs by suburban
residents: "These attempts are usually
successful in the first instance, the fowls
when bought being young, healthy and
vigorous, but if kept on the same ground
for any length of time it becomes taint-
ed, and the laying falls off very con-
siderably. By adopting a more rational
system, even in an area of somewhat
limited size, few fowls can be kept for
egg production with success. This is to
be accomplished by securing a success
sion of new pullets; by careful feeding,
with the elimination of all fat house
scraps; the abundance of green food, with
a constant renewal of fresh earth and of
means to be adopted whereby the fowls
should not pick their food from the
tainted ground. The rearing of chickens
in confined runs is undesirable, and the
employment of chanticleer to disturb
the neighbors during the early morning
is mere useless addition and not at
tended with an increased production of
eggs"

A PLACE FOR EVERYTHING AND EVERY
THING IN ITS PLACE.
there, oftentimes all sizes in the same
box, just because there was no other place
for them. The bother and loss of time
were great, as had to open sometimes
nearly a dozen boxes to find the thing l
wanted. Thus necessity became the
mother Of invention, and tho result was
a lease" in which there is place for
everything, as shown in the cut
The drawers are made of small, light
boxes (Which can be had at the grocery
stores) sawed to the right size, and then
mailing a side, bottom or end to them as
required. The lower ones are shallow
for nails, ETC., two or three inches deep;
those intended for more bulky articles,
as bolts, ETC., deeper. For knobs, take
common sewing thread spools and saw
them in two. The half of one spool,
with wood screw through the hole Of
it and into the drawer, makes the knob.
For convenience, drawers for screws,
rivets, small nails, tacks, ETC., are parti-
toned into two, three or four parts, and
can also be taken out and carried to
where wanted. A sample of the article
or articles (size and kind) in each drawer
is fastened on the outside of it by q
double pointed carpet tack, and when
anything is wanted, from a quarter inch
tack to a half inch bolt it is a pleasure
and satisfaction to be able to put your
hand on it in moment.

PRINCE WINS.
SLEEPY GEORGE NOT IN IT WITH THE
BlCYcLER.

The Five Miles Covered in Seventeen
Minutes and Forty-six 5econds-A
Large Crowd PreSent--Another Race
Talked or,
The race between John Hosler's PAGER,
Sleepy George, and John S. Prince, the
professional bicyclist, for five miles, took
place as per schedule OF the Fair Grounds
Tuesday evening. The contest between
horse and man was witnessed by large
crowd. The grandstand was well filled
and two or three hundred stood along the
fence at the home stretch. In addition to
these the fence surrounding the Fair
Grounds was literally covered with human
forms. A large number OF local wheel
men were present and before the race
began they relieved the monotony OF the
scene by a bit of vigorous scorching
around the track. The course had been
put in excellent condition and everything
was favorable for the event. About 7:3O
o'clock Prince came on the track in racing
costume. He looked like veritable
Hercules and many we're the expressions
dropped by spectators in commendation
of bis remarkable physique. The judges
for the race were Ben Van Norman of the
Cleveland Press, Il. X, Kinney of the
Repository and II. S. Hathaway OF the
Ews-DEMoCRAT.
The outcome of the affair was in keep
ing with the predictions OF every wheel
man in town. No one who knows any
thing about records expected the PAGER to
come anywhere near winning, and as q
matter of fact there is 10 horse In the world
that can pace or trot and defeat any well
trained bicyclist in five mile race. From
the start II was evident that Prince had
everything his own way. The race was
taken leisurely by both parties, the bicyc.
list keeping abreast of and at times ahead
of the horse until the last mile and half,
when he spurted ahead, and maintained
lead of about hundred yards to the
finish. The time was very slow for the
bicycle, the distance being covered In II
minutes aud 46 seconds, or just five min
utes more than the record of A. A.
Zimmerman, the five mile champion.
The first mile was ridden in 3:45, second
3 :32, third 3:32, fourth 3 .46 and the fifth
in 3:11. The last quarter was run off in
about "a 1-5 seconds by Prince.
Prince says that Hosler still claims
that horse flesh is more speedy than bicy-
clers, and it is possible that another race
will be run, when Hossler will be allowed
two horses, each to go half the distance.

Treatment of Chicks.

After Matching leave the chicks in
the nest for twenty-four hours. Take
the hen away, feed her well and give
water to drink. On coming out of nest
feed chicks on bread soaked i'll milk and
squeezed dry, or give dry bread crumbs.
After few days give chicks all they
can eat, as often as they will, of bread
and milk or bread crumbs. After sec
ond day give milk or water in shallow
pans for drink. Be careful bread is not
fed too sloppy or looseness will follow.
If chicks appear sick or dropping look
for lice. Dust with insect powder care
fully.
After two weeks feed wheat sparingly
at first, afterward all they can eat,
particularly at night; vary with crushed
corn. Be careful the chicks are not
stinted of food or they will become
stunted. Remember that chick stunted
in the first five weeks of its life will
never make plump fowl.
If the hen and chicks are placed in
small coops, the latter should be cleaned
every day or second day. AS the early
chicks grow large they should be re-
moved from the younger ones or the
latter will be crowded and make no
progress.-A. G.. Gilbert, Ottawa Station.

THE DOCTOR AND TOBACCO.

The Late Sir MoreII Mackenzie's Opinions
and Suggestions About Smoking.
Sir Morell Mackenzie is credited with
having expressed himself as follows in re-
gard TO the effects of smoking; He strong
ly objected to the cigarette las being the
worst form Of indulgence, from the fact that
the very mildness Of its action tempts peo-
pie to smoke nearly all day long and by
inhaling the fumes into their lungs satu-
rate their blood with the poison. 1t should
be borne in mind that there are two bad
qualities contained in the fumes of tobacco.
One is poisonous nicotine, the other the
high temperature of the burning tobacco.
Most people, however, can smoke in mod
Grafton without injury; to many tobacco
acts as n useful nerve sedative; but, on the
other hand, an excessive indulgence in the
habit is always injurious"
To any one who finds total abstinence
from tobacco too heroic stretch of virtue,
Sir Morell said: Let him smoke only after
a substantial meal. Let him smoke mild
Havana or n long stemmed pipe charged
with some cool smoking tobacco. If the
charms of the cigarette are irresistible, let
it be smoked through mouthpiece, which
is kept clean with ultra-Mohammedan
strictness. Let him refrain from smoking
pipe, cigar or cigarette to the bitter and, 1t
may be added, rank and oily end"

The Contemporary Review as the story Of

has given at length in a small volume.
This young girl, a Hungarian by birth,
was Of hysterical constitution, and proved
extraordinarily susceptible to hypnotic
suggestion. She fell into the hands of per
sons whose i'll judged zeal and curiosity
carried them to lengths which seem almost
incredible and her life was ruined by cruel
and senseless experiments. She was byp-
notified several times a day for some
months, apparently by any one who chose
to practice upon her, and was made the
victim Of very painful and distressing sug-
gestions. For instance, pair of scissors
was on one occasion laid upon her bare
arm, and she was told that they were red
hot and would burn her. All the effects
Of severe burn were brought about by
this suggestion; an inhamed and blistered
spot, taking the shape Of the scissors, ap-
peared on her arm and took months to
heal. The unhappy girl at last became in

FRICK
TESTlFles BEFORE THE CONGRESSIONAL
INVESTIGATING COMMITTEE.

He Is Forced TO Produce Letter Which
Shows That He Negotiated for the
Pinkerton's Before the Men at Home
stead Quit Work.
PrTTsBURG, Pa, July 10 Especial
The Congressional committee consisting
of W. G. Oates, of Alabama, who is chair
man; W. ID. Bynum, of Indiana; C.. J.,
Boatner, OF Louisiana; Judge E. b. Taylor,
OF Ohio, and Case Broderick of Kansas,
arrived here yesterday for the purpose OF
investigating the cause OF the trouble at
Carnegie's Homestead mills. A visit was
made to the mills, and the ground where
last weeks battle between the Pinkertons
and the lockedout workmen occurred was
examined.
The taking of testimony commenced in
the evening, when II. G. Frick, the chair
man of the Carnegie company, was placed
on the stand. He gave detailed history
OF the case from highly colored Carnegie
standpoint. He failed to explain matters
in manner satisfactory to the committee
and Chairman Oates cornered him when
he asked by what authority he Frck)
hISu dh dTiheu DOuy VI GlnkerIOn men TO
invade the State of Pennsylvania.
Frick tried to explain the matter by
asserting that heretofore the sheriff has
been unable to handle such cases
and he (Brick) didn't want to
take any chances. At this point
in the testimony he was com.
PEELED to read in evidence the letter
he wrote to Bob Pinkerton, of New York,
on June 25, in which he made arrange
mente for an armed body OF Pinkertons
(at salary of IS per day to mobilize at
Ashtabula and from that point proceed to
Pittsburg and from there to Homestead
and secret themselves in the works.
This letter was the most important
feature Of the examination, as 1t showed
that Frick negotiated for the services of
the Pinkertons before the men at Home
stead quit work.
Frick was also questioned In regard to
the prices paid the men at Homestead.
He attempted to explain the "sliding
SCALE" Of wages, but his explanation was
very vague and indefinite. At late hour
the committee adjourned until this morn
ing, when Frick will again testify.

A LIVELY RACKET.
A Drunken Man Pummeled In Saxton
Street Saloon.

Street Saloon.
Saloonkeeper Snyder of Saxton street
had hard tussle with German man
named Schneider last night who was bent
on carving him with a pocket knife.
Schneider went into the saloon about half
past six o'clock in the evening. He was
somewhat Under the influence of liquor
and he became boisterous in his language.
Snyder told him to be quiet and leave the
place. The man then drew knife from
his pocket and opening long blade he
made lunge at the proprietor. Samuel
Antener the bar tender was witnesses to
these proceedings on the part OF Schroeder
and just as that man struck forward with
the knife, he sprang forward and with the
we'll dealt stroke of Corbett he felled
the man to the floor and knocked the
knife out of his hand. Snyder pounced
upon the prostrate fellow and exercised
his puRilistic powers on him. A truce was
soon forthcoming from the battered up
man for he begged the men who held him
down 10 desist in their blows and let him
up. When he arose upon his feet he ap-
peared to have been struck by a cyclone.
He was allowed to leave ths place without
further molestation. Mr. Snyder still re-
tains the pocket knife and will probably
keep IL as memento OF his adventure
with would be assassin.
