A Erislltful I,unn,yay.

a frightful runaway occurred last
night about eleven o'clock along River
avenue. Johnnie Lurch had hired a
livery team from SINNERS livery and
had been driving up on College hill
and was on his way down the hill
when opposite the Elkhorn round
house he heard what he thought was
the twang of the rubbers- of sling
shot, when the team began jumping
and kicking and in an instant they
were off at fearful rate. Johnnie
could not hold them, but thought they
would stop when they came to the
livery stable. They shot past it like
an arrow and throwing the lines over
the dashboard he climbed out over the
back seat and dropped to the ground,
injuling his arm severely. The team
went safely by the rocks all along
Ri1er avenue and were finally turned,
up near the court house, upsetting the
buggy but not breaking anything.
Another lesson on the dangerous sling
shot.

Worlds Fair.

Fifty years hence the local old timers
will still tell about what they saw in
Chicago in 1S93." And what they say
will be worth listening to. lime and
old age and intirmity will make no diff
ference; their memories will not hold
more pleasant recollections than those
connected with the great fair. The
glorious magnilfcence of the Exposition
buildings-the crowds of strange, for
eign-looking peOple-the delights of a
trip to Chicago by the Burlington
route. All these and thousand other
equally pleasant topics will be referred
to over and over and over again.

FROM WEDNESDAYS DAILY

A. W. Mcgowan moved yesterday
into his brothers residence on Seventh
street, formerly owned by Chet.
Martin.
A delightful ram Yesterday cooled
things off so that it is now a pleasure
to live. Vegetation is requickened
and every body is feeling good.
A heavy timber fire is raging north
east of town and from the quantity of
smoke coming this way we should
judge considerable damage is beng
done.
1t is reported that G. H. Bronte has
sold the west half of lot in block l
Of Minnekahta addition, being the lot
between Rylen's building and DIR.
Cheney's to MIR. Nevis for fair

Supt. Morey Of the St. Joseph and
Grand Island r. r. is bathing. at the
Catholicon and tells us that he is get
ting much better. He has been afflicted
for twelve years and says he cannot

tainly getting much benefit.
The water from the flume was turned
into the creek this morning for an
hour aud men have been set to work to
loosen up the moss and trash that have
accumulated. This will be done every
morning until it is cleared up. The
power cannot be spared longer than an
hour each day.
An elegant 2O-passenger bus or
summer wagon appeared on our streets
for the first time this morning bearing
the word Catholicon on its sides. 1t is
. decided improvement over the old
rattle trap that has done duty for so
long for that spring and we would
wager it will bring them a dozen
extra baths day. It is cool, easy
riding wagon and we should like to
see many more like it on our streets.
w. U. Germond, cave dweller, re-
ceived this morning about so proofs of
photographs taken by H. F. Lancaster
the Omaha artist, in the famous
Johnstone trip to find the pin in Wind
cave. The views are elegant-mucll
better than we imagined could be
taken by flash light and in number
of them the party is caught in very
perilous positions. We predict large
sale for them.

you that Chinese do not work any cheaper

WALLACE BRUCE IS BACK.
The Former Consul at Edinburgh VIII
Re.urne His American Work.

After four years of consular work IN
Edinburg Hon. Wallace Bruce has re-
turned TO America.
II only anticipated two years abroad
when i went away" said Mr.. Bruce TO
Mail and Express man, but much TO my
satisfaction. It stretched out to four,
during which time l travelled extern
sively on the continent with the ultimate
conclusion that Edinburgh to my mind is
the most beautiful city in Scotland.
Being In the land Of my ancestors
naturally found much to interest me,
and this combined with the marked kind
ness OF my treatment there made 1t
very congenial home for me.
in no place IN the world, however,
does one feel the tide OF life as in New
York, and nowhere is there street like
Broadway. which combines the beauty or
Paris with the hustle of London.
THE city OF Edinburgh is one of the
be st governed in Europe. Much attention
is given to identifying 1t and keeping 1t
scrupulously clean. This probably arises
from the fact that the town council IL
chosen from among the most prominent
and representative men IN trade ana
business.
They have looked with great interest
on the discussion OF our silver question:
here, and keep remarkably well posted.
OF course, the depression here has TO
some extent affected them. and they
think that the silver question Is the main
one at issue, and that its repeal Is a
panacea for every i'll. Capitalists In Eng
land have the most profound confidence
in the stability OF American enterprises,
and are buying largely Of American Sc
curities and holding on for the inevita-
bic rise.
I'm Europe they are eagerly awaiting
the promises Of free trade made by the
dominant party. In Scotland, where
tweetis are the principle article Of manu-
facture,. they admit that protection has
largely helped production in this country,
and that as a result we are making
tweeds here closely approaching in quail
ty to their own. They cannot help ad-
hitting the harm that would come TO us
by free-trade policy but they claim that
the United States is rich enough 20 stand
It,"
When the subject OF politics was
preached Mr.. Bruce said, with smile !:
II think we had better adjourn the dis
cussion OF that until 1896. The people
will then have had three years OF medita-
ton that will probably do them good"
Mr.. Bruce will for the present confine
himself almost entirely to literary work.
He has begun two or three works on
Scottish subjects, which ne hopes 10 finish
during the y<lr He will also coSnue
his lecturing
