BACKED in FRONT OF ENGINE.
And the Buggy Was Smashed, But
the Driver Escaped-TwO Runaways.

There were two runaways this morn
ing near the market house. Just as the
Durham and Northern train was going
out horse driven by S. d. Ellison, who
had just crossed the railroad track in
front of the engine, become frightened
and backed the buggy on the track. The
vehicle was smashed and the horse ran
away, but the driver escaped unhurt.
A few minutes later J. E. Elliott, who
was driving mule to a wagon loaded
with wood, dropped his reins and
the mule made off at a rapid
rate. Elliott was thrown out and
badly bruised on the head and arm.
The mule made the circuit of the court
house square and came back to the point
from which he started with only the
front wheels Of the wagon hitched to
him.
Church street was crowded, but all at
tempts to stop him were futile. Mr.. 7,
NJ. Gorman, who was driving road cart
along the only open way in the street,
managed to head the mule off and es
capped being run into, but the wheels up
set in the lodging around of the runa-
way, and one wheel landed right on Mr..
Germans horses back. That the horse
did not run away is a wonder,
The mule kept going until it broke
loose from every part of the wagon.

4 QUE TON?

Is there place for OCCOneeChee Farm Some
doubt the good judgment Of the proprietor in at
tempting TO establish such an investment in North
Carolina, losing sight of the fact that thousands of
dollars annually are sent Out of the State for I'm
proved Stock In numbers of instances much loss
befalS the purchaser before the stock becomes &C.
CImated Only last fall the large price Bull at the
Raleigh State Fair was purchased and sent to OC-
ConeeChee Farm where he died in len days. This
risk the OCConeeChee Farm assumes, because our
stock is all thoroughly aCCIimated TO the Southern
climate before being offered for sale
Another point s'-the great amount to be saved
in freight in purchasing stock near home. Often
the freight charges on stock purchased from the
North or the West amounts to almost as much
as the cost of the stock, to say nothing of the
risk and the torture coming to stock from long
shipments Purchasing of OCConeeChee Farm
saves all this
Then the question. is there a place for
0CCOneeChee Farm?' answers itself.
Besides these considerations there remains
the further fact that no breeder North, South,
East or West, offers the best more reasonably
than we do, nor sells under a more pronounce
ed guarantee that we offer only the best
Lastly: We are home folks and YOU know
us and can command our attention at any time,
in case anything is not as guaranteed.

in spite of tho fact that at first he was received with open arms. He Is at present living on ranch in California, being tutor to n lad whose mother is anxious for his spiritual welfare.
 The first rebuff he experienced here was when he became convivial at the banquet of the police captains in New York. Then came stories from London that Capel had made dcplorablc fiasco as financial manager and was not il favor with churchmen there. When he was in Philadelphia, the monsignor made a. scene in the cathedral there by threatening to leave the pulpit in the cathedral, if people persisted a interrupting his sermon by moving about and coughing. Then he made enemies of the Catholic hierarchy by alleged haughtiness and general self indulgence. So the brilliant fellow drifted to the west and found his Lethe in California. It is to be noted that his side of the stories was never heard. Some say he is too'proud to notice the accusations against him. He made an enemy of the New York police for one thing by thoroughly exposing their connection with the bunco swindlers of the metropolis This sudden inter- est in Capel mystihes churchmen over here

A small boy on Third street had had some difficulty with the neighbor's children during the afternoon, and that night he was not feeling in very Chris tian spirit. After he had gone to bed his mother came in to tuck him away snugly.

 "Yes'm."
 And did you pray for the heathenP" The boy was slow to answer.
 "Yes'm, I did," he said at last, ''all of them, except them next door."-Detroit Free Press.

 calculated to give troops greater eff cicncy in street maneuvcrs, and par ticularly in dealing with labor mobs
 It is the freely expressed opinion of the army corps in New York that our soldiers work in the future will have very little connection with Indian war fare, and more and more with sedition and civil upheavals, in view of present social conditions. This view of the case is indorsed by the incidents daily transpiring in Brooklyn, where motor men are no longer victims of organized attacks, but are assaulted by strikers in solitary places in the shelter of the night. No police system yet invented seems capable of stopping these prao- tices entirely. The army men in adopting the new tactics, have aimed blow directly at many practices com mon during strike, afid thus the unions are active in opposition to them. Many of the unions are organizing through the country for fght in con- gress against any further extension of the military power. The outcome will be watched with interest by army men who have many measures of inn portance to them ready for introduc- tion into the next congress and who dread opposition fGm that quarter.

GEAR. hopes Jillb nc had permanently given up his books for less severe delights. The Russian itinerary of this man of millions is strictly academic undertaking. Mr. Vanderbilt proposes to make study of Russian institutions and dialects, and through the influence of Mr. Creighton Webb, his liinsnan, who gave him let ters to Minister Breckinridgc and Con sul General Crawford, he will obtain an audience with the czar, or more correct ly. with tho emperor, since the Roman offs have discarded the word ''czar." Mir Vanderbilt will spend several months in q traverse on horseback from the capital to the Crimca, return ing to Moscow by the middle of May. Audiences with the sovereign arc very hard to obtain in the Muscovite realm nowadays, particularly since the court is in mourning. Moreover, Mir. Wander bilt will be obliged to leave his shoes outside the door when he enters the royal presence, but any pedal frigidity he may experience will be rapidly dis sipated by the pair of slippers which an attendant puts upon his feet.
 It should not be inferred that people who see the emperor in Russia must necessarily take their shoes off. That act is essential only on occasions Of such special favor as is this one to the rich New Yorker.
 MT. Vanderbilt will rough it on this trip of his. Only his cousin. King" Nissan, will accompany him, and one valet will serve both. A good deal of this journey will be made in the com pany of Tolstoi, who has for year past been corresponding with young Vanderbilt, the latter having deep re- spect for the educational theories of the former. The great literary light of Russia regularly travels on horseback through the country, and the party will go over some hundreds of miles to- gether 1t will be Q most interesting trip and the New Yorker will undoubt- edly return laden with trophies of all sorts to enrich an already superb col lection. This collection, by the way, will be left, it is understood, to various scientific institutions upon the death, of the owner.

 trained from appearing at any house in which Ora, on is welcomed. The people of assumed position can ask this gentleman and defy the whole Four Hundred, but persons like the Goulds dare not, in the present embry- onic state of their social existence, run the risk of offending the house of Astor. The enemies of the house of Astor, and there are many of them, and in high feather socially at that. have been very effusive to Mir. Drayton. Mir and Mrs. Frederick Gebhard are the only persons able to steer clear of entangle- ments, apparently, for they arc on friendly terms with all the combat ants, and, more remarkable still, are much liked by William Waldorf Astor, who on the removal of bric-a-brac and other objects de vertu from his New port villa, sent the young couple most beautiful Sevres vase. To be sure, MT. Gebhard may feel the necessity of act ing automatically just now to every one. He is rapidly making name for himself as financier, and increases his fortune daily. One of his new plans is the construction of elevated railways on new principle. They can be run up much more chcaply than has hereto fore been deemed possible, and being built in tiers one above another, are adaptable for rapid and slow transit. .Rnssell Sage is nowinteresting himself in tho idea. That Gebhard is rapidly ac- quiring an immense fortune is conceded on the street.

ing to her preoccupation with prepara- tions for the Gould wedding. So the whole matter has gone over until after Easter.
 The fact is that these affairs are not looked upon as very good form any more. Yet very strange reason exists for this, namely, the fact that they are popular in England among the aris- tocracy. The extreme form of the an- glomaniac craze has experienced a re- vulsion and the pendulum now swings the other way. Whatever is the rage in England is tabooed in New York, be- cause tho Four Hundred are too proud to copy anyone any more. This inter- csting circumstance has been general ly overlooked, but, in truth, New York society would nowadays scorn to be so provincial as to do anything but origin ate and lead. Anglomania may be all very well for St. Petersburg and Vien- na, but Gotham outgrew it long ago. We have the Vanderbilts to thank for that.
