LON SDALE.

An exciting runaway occurred In this
village yesterday afternoon about $3.50
o'clock. A pair of spirited horses belong
ing to the Pawtucket Street Railway Com
pany were being transferred from one end
ofa car to the other, "changing ends"
the railroad men call II, In front OF Board
mans pharmacy, in the old village, when
they became frightened and making q
dash forward they succeeded In getting
away from the driver, who was q new
man on the road and was not up to all the
tricks of lively horses.
They ran wildly along the street and
down Lonsdale avenue, the whiffietrees
striking their heels at every step and
maddening them.
One of the horses cleared himself In
some manner from the harness and was
captured near the "Narrows." The other
continued his mad run down the avenue,
turning into Dexter street and bringing
up against telegraph pole In front of
McGunnagle's drug store with sufficient
force to throw him. lie was Immediately
secured and was found to be quite severely
cut about the legs.
Both horses were valuable animals, but
their run Of yesterday will not increase
their value.
About o'clock yesterday afternoon a
number Of little girls were playing about
the yard In the rear of the Lonsdale hall
building when they discovered a bees
nest. They were not content with the
discovery, but sought 10 make further In
vestigation into the bees business by
thrusting sticks into the hive. The prod
ding awakened the bees TO activity with
the result that six little girls were so
badly stung as to require medical atten-
tion last night. This morning the little
sufferers were more comfortable, but
their opinion Of honey makers has under
gone a wonderful change since yester.
day.

SAME OLD STORY.
Track walker Killed on the Tin Bridge
Last Evening.


Last Evening.
Michael Graham of Warren lost his life
In the same manner and In the same place
as many others have, few moments after
o'clock last night. He was walking
across the "tin" bridge and when partly
over the Taunton train came along. He
stepped to the other track to avoid IL and
was struck by the Boston train, due here
at 5;1S.
He was thrown against the side Of the
bridge and terribly mangled.
The train was In charge of Conductor
w III. Henderson and Engineer Walter
Spencer. The engineer said he whistled
and rang the bell, but Graham did not
hear 1t.
The train was stopped and the unfortu-
nate man taken aboard.
When the depot was reached Officer
Mowry telephoned for the ambulance and
Graham was taken to the station.
DR.. True and Rev. Father McKenna of
st. Mary's Church were sent for.
The physician did all he could to revive
the dying man, but he only regained con-
ciousness for a moment. Father Nc
Kenna administered the last rites of
the church. Graham fingered until 1880.
A few moments afterward the remains
were identified by Lawrence Keegan of
Central Falls.
Graham was a weaver and was evidently
looking for work. He was sbout 30 years
Of age, a member of the Grand Army and
has wife and son at Warren. His skull
was crushed and both legs broken.
Medical Examiner Kelliher viewed the
remains and gave them In charge of I'm
dertaker Manning who prepared them for
burial.

A TELEGRAPH CIPHER.

How the Bible Gould be Used for That
Purpose.
A correspondent at Pomona, who is
telegraph operator, sends the follow
ing:
For the benefit of the readers of the
HERALD who frequently use the tele
graph, herewith give just few illus-
trations showing how the scriptures
may be utilized as book of cipher, and
dispense moral precepts and knowledge
at the same time.
For example: An eastern tenderfoot
who is about to start for California,
could notify mis- friends in the following
way: I'll John, l xii. Leave next
week"
The translation is: Having many
things to write unto you, l would not
write with paper and ink, but l trust to
come unto you and speak face to face, so
that our joy may be full. Leave next
week.
His California friends, who would be
delighted to know of his coming, could
answer him thus:
Deuteronomy, S:7. Congratulations.
Translation: Congratulations, for the
Lord thy God bringeth thee into good
land, land of brooks of water, Of ioun-
tains and depthe that spring out of val
leys and hills land of wheat and bar
ley, and vines, and fig trees, and poms-
granates; q land OF oil, olive and honey /;
q land wherein thou shalt eat bread
without scarceness; thou shalt not lack
anything in it; land whose stones are
iron, and ont of whose hills thou may
est dig brass. When thou hast eaten and
art full, then thou shalt bless the Lord
thy God for ths good land which he hath
given thee.
Or if the wandering boy" should
become i'll or get acquainted with con-
fdence men, he could touch tender
chord in the parental heart with mes
sage of this kind: Psalm 1902; Tele-
graph financial assistance.
Translation is: Hide not thy face
from me in the day when l am in trou-
BILE; incline thine ear unto me; in the
day when | call answer me speedily.
Telegraph financial assistance" II his
pathetic message had the desired effect,
his papa could use this cipher "Gene-
sis 81 49, Ecclesiastes 12:l; get money
at Western Union"
Translation is: Now, therefore, my
son. obey my voice according to that
WHICH L COu0bh0 thcC iObl OllOCk hOV
thy Creator in the days of thy youth,
while the evil days come not, nor the
years draw nigh when though shalt say,
II have no pleasure in them" Get
money at Western Union.
The young lady whose lover has left
to seek greener fields and who is doubt
full OF his love and affection could shove
matters by telegraphing him thus:
''Second Corinthians, second chapter,
fourth verse; answer quick"
Translation: "For out of much afflic-
ton and anguish of heart, | wrote you
with my tears; not that you should be
grieved, but that you might know the
love, which | have more abundantly
| unto you answer quick"
II he was still loyal and true and true
to her, and meant business, he could
explain himself satisfactorily, by tele-
graphing her: Fourteenth chapter OF
