AN EXCITING EXPERIENCE.
George NJ. Halistcad Has Most I'm.
usuai Kind of n Carriage Ride.

George NJ. Hallstead gave a great
display of nerve and horsemanship last
night. Mr.. Hallstead was out driving
on Clay avenue behind his fast-stepping
horse, which was attached to a rub
ber-tred buggy. At Mulberry street,
where the street is torn up to admit Of
the laying of the asphalt pave, the
horse became frightened and turned
down that street, jumping the barri-
cade that was erected to prevent horses
and wagons from getting on the foun-
dation for the pave.
The street between Clay and Monroe
avenue is covered only by the concrete
base and over this the frightened steed
sprinted at a lively rate, the down
grade being quite steep. Barricades at
Quincy and Monroe avenue were vault
ed as the one at Clay avenue was and
the horse continued down the street
until jefferson avenue was reached,
where Mr.. Hallstead got the animal
under control.
That he was able to retain his seat
in the carriage while the horse was
going over the barricades and that he
afterwards got it under control is little
less than marvellous. He was unin-
jured and drove home, after allowing
the horse to rest for a few moments
and in part recover from it's exciting

GOLD IN WAYNE COUNTY.
Farmers Stop Farming and Search for
the yellow Metal.

Gold fever has broken out in a quite
pronounced form in Wayne county at
Clemo, a little station on the Erie and
Wyoming Valley railroad, a few miles
from Lake Ariel. The cause Of the ex-
citement is the reported discovery Of
traces of the yellow metal on the farm
of p. J.. Rutledge, two miles from
ClemO.
What first led to Rutledge's belief
that gold was on his farm, is not
known but he was sanguine enough to
secure the services of c. S. Rabcock,
OF Randham, a diamond drill and gold
mining expert, who is said to have put
down the first shaft at Cripple Creek
and was lately located at Carson City,
New. From piece of rock on the ,Rut-
ledge farm, Babcock separated n COM
paratively large quantity of gold
dust. He obtained the residue by sub
mitting the rock to a corrosive acid
test. He made quite an extensive ex-
animation of the farm and ventured
the opinion that it contained evidences
of gold and iron.
The fever has spread to nearby local
tties and in South Canaan farmers
have put down two shafts and are dig
Eing in the hopes of striking a Penn
sylvania Klondike.

Hon. Martin Jordan's left leg was the
most prominent thing in evidence
about the court house yesterday. 1t
was offered as plaintiffs Exhibit A.
In the case of Jordan against the city
of Scranton which was called for trial
before Judge Gunster in court room No.
2.
Jordan is suing the city for damages
resulting from a broken leg which he
alleges he sustained by falling on an
icy sidewalk on Mates street in Feb
ruary, 1895. Doctors Leet, Smith and
Stevens were called by the plaintiff to
show the nature of the injury and tes-
tify that 1t was of a permanent nature.
They examined the leg and then one
after the other testified that it was
Just as strong as it ever was and that
Jordan is not now suffering and never
will suffer any serious effects of the
fracture. This was not at all pleasant
to Mr.. Watson, attorney for the plain
tiff, and he proceeded to have his client
exhibit the leg to the jury. Jordan
disbooted, unhosed and rolled up his
trousers to the knee and then passed
the leg in question around for inspec-
ton.
OBJECTION MADE.
Before Mr.. Jordan got fairly well
started on his exhibition tour of the
jury box a happy idea struck City So
licitor Mckinley and his assistant Mr..
Davis and with O. demand to know il
the exhibit had been marked as per
court rules, stopped the show.
Mr.. Mahon declared it to be Exhibit
A, pro plaintiff, but before Steno-
grapher Coston could so mark it an
| other objection was raised by the city's
| attorneys which made the tatoolng un-
necessary. The objection was that Jor-
| dams leg was being exhibited to dis
credit the testimony of the doctors and
as a party cannot discredit his own
witnesses the exhibit was irregular.
Judge Gunster ruled that this was good
law and Jordan consequently had to
withdraw his leg.
MIR. Mahon was not at all pleased
with the outcome of his expert testi-
mony and said to DR.. Leet after he
came from the stand II congratulate
you on the excellence of your job
1t was DR.. Leet and the other two ex.
pert witnesses who had set the leg al
the Moses Taylor hospital.
At adjourning time Mr.. Mckinley was
arguing for a non-suit, claiming thai
the city was not shown to have beer
negligent and that Jordan by reason
of his condition on the day in question
was guilty of contributary negligence
