Runaway Accident.

Saturday last Mr.. George Booth
drove to town, accompanied by Miss
LEM. He was driving colt, and
when ready to start for home, stopped
in front of Nickelsen's store for Miss
Lenz. As she was about to step into
the cart, Mr.. Booth raised his umbrel-
la, which frightened the horse and he
started to run down the street. Just
below Wolfard q Bones store Mr..
Booth was thrown violently against
the fence, but he held on to the lines
and regaincd his seat in the cart. The
horse was turned up the street but kept
running and kicking, and at Rand's
corner the cart upset and Mr.. Booth
got caught in one of the wheels and
was dragged across the street before the
horse could be stopped. Mr.. Booth
was badly bruised about the face and
arms and legs and received a severe cut
on the forehead. He was taken TO the
Mt Hood hotel where his wounds
were dressed by DIR. Watt. His daugh-
ter, Mrs. J. l.. Atkinson, was tele.
phoned and came up from Portland on
the night train. accompanied by her
son Myron. When Mr.. Booth was
picked up it was thought by every one
present that he was killed, bit he soon
rallied, and as no bones were broken
he will be all right again iu two or
three weeks and ready for another run
away. The horse ran away in driving
TO town In the morning, but Miss Lenz,
who is pretty good herself at managing
u horse, held him in till he checked his
speed. Mrs. Atkinson returned to
Portland on the delayed Spokane ex-
press Sunday evening, taking her faith
er along, and he will remain in Port
land until he is fully recovered from
hie iniurioa

FAITH IN HUMAN NATURE.
A Now York Cafe That Reposes Implicit
Confidence In Its Customers.

A Now York Cafe That Reposes Implicit
Confidence In Its Customers.
1t is rather surprising to find right on
Park row q cafe that trusts its custom
ers perfectly. This place has probably
800 regular callers. 1t is open day and
night, and is run ON system of i'm
plicit faith in the honesty of man.
While not place strictly high class, it
offers what might be called very
comfortable" meal, with trimmings
before or after. Altogether. it is simply
plain place for an everyday man, with
occasionally little something extra
OH the bill of fare equaling anything in
the city.
This, of course, can be said of hun
dreds of similar places, but the system
Of payment is something novel. The
proprietor, % stout German, boasts no
cashier, as there is very little cash to
take i'll. On the cigar counter is day
book. Tho customer comes i'll, goes to
the ice chest i'll the corner if he wishes
and takes quiet nip out of black
bottle. Then he orders what he wants
OIL the bill of fare. 1t is served quickly
and neatly. Ho then counts up his own
indebtedness and puts it opposite his
name i'll the book, including the nip, -
OF cigar, if he prefers that. He then
walks sercncly out, knowing no proprie-
tor is glaring mt him and no cashier
yelling for him to come back and make
the cash register good.
This sort Of childlil1e simplicity in
running a business i'll the very heart of
city filled with bunkoers, green goods
men and gold bricks without number
is said to be winning venture. Gus
toners invariably settle weekly, Friday
and Saturday being pay days, and the
proprietor says he has as yet to lose u
bill through deliberate fraud. A little
experience with man like that is al
most enough to renew ones confidence
i'll human nature. New York Letter in
Pittsburg Dispatch.
