BICYCLIsT KILLS 4 HORSE.
His wheel Seized by the owner of the
Nag.

Bicycle accidents are becoming very fire.
quent Two or three are reported every
day. and they vary all the way from a few
bruises TO a broken leg. So far no bicy-
clist has been killed. One of them killed
a horse on the Thunderbolt road night
before last however.
Mr.. s. A. Torlsy. who is employed at
the Palmer Hardware Company, was one
Of the victims OF the accident. The other
victim was the horse Mr.. Torlay was
wheeling along the road between the toll
gate and the Cathedral cemetery, when
he ran into a horse attached TO a small
wagon driven by a negro woman. The
shock was a severe one. Mr.. To-Day was
badly shaken up and somewhat bruised.
The horse was knocked down and, II
is said that its neck was broken. Anyway,
the horse died shortly after. While Mr..
TOriay was attending to his bruises the
negro woman, who had driven the wagon,
seized his bicycle and carried IL on. Sne
that she intended 10 hold il for damages.
Mr.. To-Day had to get out a possessory
warrant yesterday in order to secure the
wheel. Since IL appears that a horse can
be killed by a bicycle, perhaps the road
hogs will be more careful hereafter and
will show less disposition TO run down the
bicyclists.

Andrew ID. White. eX-AIinlster to Rus

criminal history of this country. and In
a recent address In boston on "rhe
Problem of High Crime In the United

must be regarded rs startling ut least.
II he did not give the figures to back mp
his utterances. and II 1t were not con-
ceded that his figures are reasonably
accurate. 1t would he hardly possible to
credit some of the things he said. 1t Is
difficult to believe. for instance, that
under no other civilized government,
whether monarchy or republic, Is the
right to life SO tramplcd upon by priv
LEGGED class of criminals as under this
government" The records with which
he supports this statement show 10000
murders were committed In the United
States last year, an increase of 700 over
the number for 1894 aud OF G,2IO over
the number In 1890. Out of this vast
number of murders there were only 132
legal executions. a disparity between
crime and penalty which he points out
may well alarm thinking men and
cause them to make inquiry as to the
