The AoOIdentI Reported From About the
City Yesterday.


City Yesterday.
Yesterday morning a street car ran
against the wagon of Kimberly & Davis,
the feed dealers, at Thirty-ninth street.
But little damage resulted.
Anthony McAndrews, boy aged Il,
of No. SO Twenty-eighth street, jumped
from one OF the tall freight cars In the
Terminal yards yesterday afternoon
near Twenty ninth street, and his ankle
was very badly sprained. 1t was very
difficult to get him home, and more SER
ious Injury may result.
Edward Geisner, young man OF the
Island, was riding his bicycle down the
approach to the ferry on this aide Of
the river. The ground was slippery,
and it caused him to fall from the wheel.
His left wrist was broken, and DR.. II.
Weschler, of South Chapline street,
gave the medical attention.
Frank Wolf, the awning man OF
South Eoff street, was working at a
house on South Eoff street yesterday
afternoon, when he missed his footing
and fell. He fell two stories, and
alightsd on the broad Of his back. He
was badly bruised, and is able TO get
about with considerable difficulty.
About 1880 o'clock last evening there
was a bicycle collision ct Twenty-frst
and Main streets. A young man was
riding down TWenty-frst at = rapid
rate Of speed and another was coming
down Main at rapid gait. They did
not see each other, and they collided.
One of the wheels was demolished and
one OF the riders was painfully bruised.
The young men were strangers In that
party Of the city, and their names could
not be learned.
Of the LaBele landing yesterday at
4 o'clock p. N. four young men OF the
South Side made very narrow escape
from being drowned. The names Of
the young men are Henry Carl, Daniel
OConnor, William Craig and Albert Zu-
lauf. They started from the landing
In a skiff, and got safely TO the other
side. When they were coming back
the boat got into the waves OF pass
ing tow boat, and the skiff containing
the young men was capsized. Three Of
the young men could not swim, but
Mr. O'Connor is an excellent swimmer,
and he proved the hero OF the hour.
He got into the skiff, which was upside
down, and got the others OF the party
hold of 1t. The accident was seen from
the shore, and another skiff put out,
and got the young men who had made
the narrow escape. One OF the young
men was very i'll as the result, and had
TO take his bed last night.

"Do you remember me?" inquired the
man. as he quietly slipped up 10 the city
editors desk.
II can't say that do" replied the
city editor, looking him over carefully.
"You remember was in here some
time ago giving policies OF insurance on
punches of keys?"
"oh, yes; remember now; took
one"
"Of course; all wise men do. At the
same time, il you recall it, l told yon
had great scheme for insuring UNI
brellas on the same plan"
81 believe l do recall it. How did II
come out?"
The man threw up his hands hope
lessly, says the Detroit Free Press.
"Well," he said, "before that week
was out had my umbrella insurance
company at work, with agents all over
town. The success was immediate and
phenomenal. Everybody wanted 10 In
sure his umbrella. The premium was
fifty cents year. The amount TO be
paid to persons returning lost Gu oreliss
was S3--about the average price OF an
umbrella man doesn't like 10 lose, you
know. Agents turned in policies by the
pocketful the first week. | hadn't any
idea there were as many half dollars ln
circulation as received 81 my office.
Second week they kept coming, aud l
began to think OF plans for great
building on Woodward avenue for the
accommodation Of the business to be
known as the Umbrella Insurance
Bull ding. Third week 1t was still
going. Fourth week it ralned.
Fifth week umbrellas began com
ing in. l didu't know there were
SO many umbrellas in the world.
Sixth week IL was worse, and / began
TO investigate. Watched the people
who brought them in and got the 80.
Mostly people above susptcion-to lock
at. Discovered they had been stealing
them; always picked out one with our
tag on it, Didn't know there we're so
many people who thought it no sin TO
steal an umbrella; never thought OF
that when l got up the company.
Wasn't an umbrella In the lot worth So;
didn't know so many people wore cheap
UNI brellas; something rotten in DEN
mark. Justcome up here from my office;
string OF people there reaching half way
round the block, waiting TO get In.
There isn't money enough left in the
fund to buy ferry ticket with. I've
come here to see IL you won't lend mo
that amount. Pm not going back; but
[ notice Ia the paper that Mr.. Dingbat,
the we'll known president Of the Um-
brella Insurance Company, having been
suddenly called to China, left this
morning by way of Windsor and Que

leaving the city editor in a condition OF
partial paralysis.
