AN EXCITING
Two Wagons Collide on South
Presa Street and a Horse Badly
Injured.

INJURED
Yesterday afternoon a colored
man was driving Joske Brothers
delivery wagon down South Presa
street when the neck yoke broke
and this scared the horse who be-
came unmanageable and ran
towards the fair grounds. When
opposite Leigh street, the runaway
ran into Ochs & Aschbacher's team
while the driver was delivering
soda water at Glazer's saloon and
released the horses by breaking
the harness. The pole of Joske
Brothers wagon struck one of Ochs
& Aschbachers horses in the
breast and entered some distance
and the force of the collision was
|such that it threw the delivery
wagon on one of JOske's horses.
The other got away but was pur-
sued by Ed. Ringlestein and a
LIGHT reporter, and were captured
near the Rosy residence before
doing further.
DOShO uCIINCIy "dSoh was SOh-
siderably damaged in the collision
and the harness all broke up. Ochs
& Aschbacher's wagon and harness
also damaged. AT first it was sup
posed that the latter firms horse,
recently purchased for $75, was
mortally injured, a S the blood
spurted out of the wound in such
a way as to indicate the breakage
of a main artery. DR.. Adolph
Herff, who was passing by, came to
the scene and soon discovered that
the blood came from a rupture of
one of the minor veins, and by the
def pressure of his fingers soon
stopped the bleeding.
In conversation with DR.. Herff
he said: ga similar accident oc-
Cured to me yesterday and l was

Americas Natives Described.

This description of the natives as they
appeared to the English colonists in
Maryland was written in 1868:
They are very proper tall men of per-
son; swarthy by nature, but much more
by art; painting themselves with colours
in Oyle, like a darke red, which they doe
to keep the gnatts off. AS for their faces
they have other colours at times, as blew
from the nose upward and red down
ward; somewhat contrariwise, in great
v~arietie and in very gastly manner.
They have no boards till they come to
be very old, and therefore draw from
each side of their mouthes lines to their
cares to represent a beard. Their ap-
parell generally is deere skyns and some
furre, which they wear like loose man
tells; and yet under this, about their
middle, all women and men, at mans
estayte, were rounde aprons of skyns,
which keeps them decently covered, so
that, without any offense to chast eyes,
we may converse with them.
All the rest of their bodies are naked,
and at times some of the youngest sort
of both men and women have just moth
ing to cover them. The natural wit of
this nation is very quick and will con-
ceive a thing very readily. They excel
in smell and taste and have far sharper
sight than we If these people were
ono Christians Gas by some signs we
have reason to think nothing binders it
but want of language, it would be q
right virtuous and renowned nation.

How They Robbed the Marquis.

In the old range cattle boom days,
when money from foreign lands was
pouring into the west like water, there
were a good many sharp tricks prac-
ticed in delivering cattle. It is recalled
that the Marquis de Mores, who tried to
cut such a conspicuous figure IS a revo-
lu~tionizer of the American meat trade,
and who later became notorious as a
duelist, was badly sold. While in Da-
kota he bought 10000 head of cattle
from two Englishmen. They were first
class cattle and cost forty dollars a head.
When these two Britons delivered the
cows they worked n of the neatest
"skin" games that was ever heard of.
Medora, you know, sits in a valley, with
table lands on each side.
Well, the Englishmen ran 5000 head
of cattle in N the marquis and collected
for 10000. The way they did it was by
running the same 5000 twice around the
hill. De Mores never "tumbled" until
he had paid his $4OO, 900 and the merry
cockneys were bound for South Amer
lea. 1t was a clear steal of 5000, 900, but
the marquis didn't make much bones
about it. He had plenty of money and
didn't care.-Chicago Drovers' Journal.

Sullivan was an easy mark six months
ago when he made the prediction alluded
to above and surely the. boxers that /
have mentioned are not to be SO rated"
Corbett asserts, in justification of his
course in asking one years rest between
his battles, that Sullivan, although he
held the championship twelve years,
only fought four men-Ryan, Mitchell,
Kilrain and Corbett-an average Of one
battle every three years. Of his inten'
tons regarding the next contest for the
championship of the world, Corbett
says: "Geddard must win the cham
pionship of his own country before
will recognize him. l am the champion
of America and of the world, and
claim the right to say whom | shall meet.

"After his arrival in this country,

ure to do SO, Peter Jackson is my next
choice. And in case he does not come
to the scratch, l will meet any man in
the world, barring no color or nation
atty, the fight to take place next fall"

Large Electric Locomotives

The most powerful electric locomo-
tives yet used are two of the London
Underground railway. Each locomo-
tive, according to a description of Mr..
Alexander Siemens, carries two motors.
and the use OF all gearing is obviated by
winding the armatures of the motors on
the axles Of the locomotive wheels
Tests Of the four motors before they
were fitted to their places gave from
forty to fifty horsepower each for three
of them-the other being much more
powerful-and eficiencies of about 80 to
"a per cent.
Each locomotive fully equipped weighs
1873 tons, and its unloaded train weigh,
twenty-one tons, a full load being ninety
six passengers, The average power of
each locomotive requires a current Of
not more than fifty amperes, although
IN starting as much as 40 amperes must
be had.-Ohio State Journal.

coming undesirable moved three boxes
containing a corpse each to the plat
form of his car outside, one on top Of
the other.
AS the train was nearing Ottumwa,
the baggage man upon looking out was
Mortified to discover of the boxes
missing. Surmising that one of the boxes
had slid off in rounding a curve, owing
to the high rate of speed the train had
been running, he wired Superintendent
Dugan Immediately upon arrival of the
train at Ottumwa, apprising him of the
loss. Dugan wired the section foreman
at Ottumwa as follows:

Patrick Immediately started out with
the section gang, and found the box in

ders direct from the superintendent, the
roadmaster being his immediate supe-
rior. Consequently Patrick concluded
the time to win promotion had arrived,

Catarrh in the Head

Is undoubtedly a disease of the blood,
and as such only a reliable blood purifier
can effect a perfect cure. Hoods Sarsa-

has cured many very severe cases of ca
tarrh. 1t gives an appetite and builds up
the whole system.
Hoods Pills act especially upon the
liver rousing it from torpidity to its nat
ural duties, cure constipation and assist
digestion.
