/ was breathless. but could still hear the
voice behind us carried on the wind. The
blood was ringing in my ears, and my
breath stopped in my throat. Suddenly
/ felt a heavy hand grasp my shoulder,
and a coarse voice said thief" It was
all that the man could say, for he,
too, was at the end of his strength. At
last he gained his breath, and as wewsre
nearing a village he made an effort to
call seine men who were drinking at a
tavern. He still held me by the collar,
but had taken the halter out of my hand.
Riouet no longer led the way He. was
hauled along, and had a tricky look in
his eye. The men answered the call, and
as the grasp which was choking me re-
Taxed, I recognized the man who had
bought Riquet.
Two officers prevented my escape. A
crowd collected, and I had nothing to
say in self-defense. Tho farmer told Of
my wild fight, which, of course, aggra-
waited the ofense. Your Honor, ! as
sure you, Riquet seemed to comprehend
it ALL They put me in prison, and. my
donkey in the pound, to await the trial.

No sooner said than donel For 100

withdraw the complaint.

o TIME AND CHANGE.

O Time and Change, they range and rang
From sunshine round to thunderi
They glance and go as the great winds blow
And the best of our dreams drive under:
For Time and Change estrange, estrange-
And, now they have looked and seen us
@ we that were dear we are all too near
With the thick of the world between us.
Q Death and Time. they chime and chime
Like bells at sunset falling.
They end the song, they right the wrong,
They set the old echoes calling:
For Death and Time bring on the prime
OF Gods own chosen weather,
And we lie in the peace of the Great Re
lease
AS once in the grass together.

the Chicago Graphie

Says the Chicago Graphle. tsThe
great bicycle relay between Chicago and
New York has called universal attention
to the terrible condition of American
highways. The wheelmen covered the
distance between the two cities within
twelve hour OF schedule time; but had
the task been intrusted to young men
less enthusiastic and plucky than were
the athletes who carried General Miles's
message to General. Howard, the ride
would have been a dismal failure. 10
many respects ours is the most progress
sive country in the world. In Others it
is ages behind the times. No European
Government would c~ountenance for q
single moment such a system of roads as
that which disgraces every State in the
Union. The relay ride has pointed out
the evil so forcibly that the American
p~eople-and particularly the farmers
may conclude to bring about q change
for the better. If so, the WheeImeD
who were engaged in this now historic
trip deserve the thanks OF the Nation

TALL KICKING
INDUCED IN BY PROPERTY OWNERS m THE
FIRST AND SECOND WARDS
The Second Days Session Of the Board Of Equali-
cation and AppsalS-Over One Hundred
Petitions Received.

The second days session Of the Board
of Equalization and Appeals was held
Yesterday. Over one hundred petitions
were received in all, including number
from the First ward, which had not
been sent in on Monday. The Board
worked hard, but at the rate the petit
tions are now coming in, the experience
of the past two days proves that 1t will
be impossible to consider all the COM
plants within the specified time.
The consideration Of petitions devel-
oped a remarkable state of affairs in re-
gard to the number of dwellings in the
city unfit for human habitation." IL
was suggested that real estate owners
were more candid with the Committee
than with possible tenants. The Board
did a wise thing in deciding not to hear
personal complaints Of the petitioners,
as this course facilitates matters
greatly.
The first thing done yesterday was
to receive the report of the sub
Committee appointed MONDAY 10 eA-
anime into the merits of the COM
plants received on the previous
day. Before the report was read
Mr.. Wilson stated that a number
of corrections had been made by
the Committee, which were not be-
fore it properly by petition, but when
the Committee considered other petit
tiions it found errors which it thought
proper to correct. The Committee re-
commended that the petitions OF Henry
Christman, L. c. Stifel, Theo. Roller,
NJ. Reilly's estate, Wheeling Iron and
Nail Company, be rejected, as the vaiu-
alton, in the judgment OF the Commit
tee, was correct.
VALUATIONS REDUCED.
The Committee further recommended
that the following assessments be re-
duced as set forth below:
