"One thing to be deplored Is the renewed

Display of Nerve.

One of Inc most exciting and dangerous
runaways that has been seen on Pennsyl-
vania avenue for some time occurred THIS
morning just as the rear vehicle of the
circus parade reached 11th street. The
steam calliope started UP just at this poin-,
and il is said this frightened a horse which
Mr.. Harry NJ. Lemon had standing at that
corner. Before Mr.. Lemon could stop his
horse it had gained full Roadway and was
going, fortunately up the avenue, at a
terrific rate. If he had gone the other way
in all probability some one on the street,
as well as the driver of the vehicle, would
have been killed. AS it was, Mr.. Lemon
had such narrow escape from serious in
jury, if not death, as he should hope he
may never have again.
The horse was not running away i'll The
ordinary sense of the word. but the SOUND
of the callioIe, according TO bystanders
seemed to have craZed him. With every
step he seemed to gain speed, shaking his
head from side 70 side while many OF tht
spectators who saw it are of opinion that
his heels We're higher than his head a
greater part of the time. The thorough
fare was crowded with pedestrians, and all
sorts of vehicles, to say nothing of the
cars, yet Mr.. Lemon did not jump. but
stayed in the buggy. and by marvellous
skill, pluck ard as fne an exhibition OF
nerve as one would wish to see. steereo

the frenzied animal to a stop in front OF

The buggy must have hit something al

CURED so quickly that no one saw what had
exactly happened; and all the way up the
avenue could be seen the flying spokes
as they were dropped by the way.

thing needed to repair the buggy are a

THE SEA LARK IS MISSING.
English ship. With 40 Boys Aboard
May lie Lost.

PORTSMOUTH, England. June Coon
siderable anxiety is felt here at the nom
arrival at this port. to take part in the
great naval review, of the British training
brig Sea Lark. She was due here last
Thursday, but has not been seen since she
left Davenport 1t is believed the brig ex-
perienced the full force of the recent gales.
and. being under full sail and being man
aged by ore hundred and thirty boys, some
mishap is feared. Two special service YES
sells which were dispatched to search for
the missing brig between Portsmouth and
Davenport have returned without finding
any trace of the Sea Lark.
TAe admiralty officials say it is not I'M
usual for such vessels to be delayed by
head winds. and they claim to feel no
anxiety for her safety. 1t is apparent that
much apprehension is experienced in Off
cial circles.

Mr.. Hoar brought forward copies of the

wool on the free list; he had carried out In
protection re bbery; he had himself de-
nounced protection as a robbery.

Mr.. Stewart stated that during the con-

made a speech at Toledo denouncfng Mr..
Cleveland for discriminating between the
two metals.
Mr.. Stewart caused a laugh as he closed

MIR. Teller's Vigorous Speech.
Mr.. Teller made a vigorous speech. In
which he asserted that he wanted the
tariff bill passed. He charged the repub-
licans with having no desire to push the
tariff bill. If they wanted to they might
have passed it thirty days ago.
Continuing, MIR. Teller said he did not
believe the republicans themselves believed
the tariff bill would bring about prosperity
and If it did not they would have to hunt
for some other excuse for the failure as
they had been hunting excuses In the past
Mr.. Teller asserted that If Mr.. Hoar or
any other man was going to bring the last
campaign into the debate the bill would be
delayed Indefinitely, as the silver men would
not allow such assertions to go unchal-
lenged.
