AN EXCITING RUNAWAY.
The Fortunate Escape of Three People
Behind the Horse.


Behind the Horse.
Between and o'clock Friday night
a very lively runaway caused consider
able alarm and excitement on the
North side and on Market street below
Main. Fred Rudatz was driving Cap
tain Kleunder's horse when it took
fright at piece of paper which blew
up suddenly at the roadside. There
were two young ladies in the carriage
with Fred when the little horse began
to run, but in the vicinity of the bridge
the carriage struck post, taking Oft
one wheel, and throwing out the driver
and one of the girls. The horse tore
on over the bridge and up Main street.
Several attempts were made to stop
him, but all we're unsuccessful. When
he turned east on Market street the
young lady was still clinging to the
seat of the carriage which was riding
on three wheels. At the corner Of
Market and Exchange the horse turned
again, and in the next block ran into a
telephone pole, which put an effectual
stop to his headlong course. Aside
from the damage done to the carriage
no great injury resulted, though it was
reported that one of the girls had
bruised her hip somewhat. To many
the affair looked as if it might have
serious results and frequently attempts
were made to stop the horse before
any one should be hurt. One or two
parties who were anxious to prevent a
catastrophe, chung to the rear of the
carriage III the hope of thereby holding
the frightened animal.

James Crockett sturdy old Scotchman,
living in Detroit, Mich, at IS Montcalm
Street, was asked about his wonderful cure.
9 First" he said, Il must tell you some
thing of my life before my almost fatal sick
ness. I was born in Scotland in 1929, and
came to this country in 1848 am marine
engineer by trade. In 1872 / was in the
employ of the Detroit and Cleveland Navi-
cation Co., and for fifteen years | was chief
engineer on one of their big passenger
steamers. My first boat was the r. N. Rice,
which was burned at the docks. Then |
was transferred to the Rubie, which was
chartered to make the run between Detroit
and Cleveland.
I brought out the new steamer the City
of the Straits and for years acted as her
chief engineer. 1t is great responsibility,
the position of chief engineer on those big
passenger palaces. Thousands of lives are
held in the keeping of the engineer. The
anxiety causes a great nervous strain, and
the strictest attention is necessary. Not for
a moment must he lose his watchfulness.
For fifteen years carefully watched
accident, and only noticed that | was getting
nervous. Suddenly without warning | was
taken sick, and in less than a week | was
Frustrated. I had the best of physicians.
| grew gradually worse, and at the council
of doctors, they said had nervous prcstrg-
ton, and had destroyed my whole nervous
SYSTEM and would never be able to be up
again. They said had worn myself out by
the long nervous strain caused by watching
and worrying about the machinery. For
three long years / was unable to move from
my bed without assistance. The doctor said
| had locomotor ataxia, and would never be
able to walk again.
"The pains and suffering I experienced
during those years are almost understandable.

LIKE a EIpIAl.=..;
How a Locomotor Aiaxia Sufferer
Was Cured.
From the Evening Ne,os, Detroit, lfich.

Ny wife used to put eight or ten hot water
bags around Lac to stop the pain. Those
that came to see me bid ne goodbye when
they left me, and | was given up. The doc
tors said nothing more could be done for me.
"We tried every known remedy, and my
wife kept reading the articles about DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People to me.
Finally she said they only cost so cents,
and she wanted to know if would try them.
To please her I consented, and the first box
gave me relief 1 continued to use them

to-day. Can you tell me q man to-day in
this big city that can do better than that ? "

THE BEST EVER MADE.
The Statement Made by the First National
Bank Fine One.

In this issue of the paper we print
the best statement ever made by the
First National bank, or according to
its size, the best ever published by any
bank in the state. The institution
was started IN 1854, making it one of
the oldest banks in the state, and as
anyone can see by reference to the
statement, one of the strongest. Peo-
pie who have watched the growth Of
the institution from month to month
and year to year, naturally feel a warm
degree of pride in its strength. The
deposits there have now reached a
figure beyond any ever before made.
There are over 100000 on deposit.
That figure more than any argument
shows what a confidence people have
in it, and how we'll that confidence is
founded.

DEMAND MORE TIME.
The Railroads Have Not Put the Air
Brakes on Freight Trains

Brakes on Freight Trains.
The most important question to
come before the interstate commerce
commission this fall will be that OF the
eXtention of time in which the rail-
roads of the country engaged in inter-
state commerce must equip their trains
with train brake systems and auto
matte car couplers. The act compel
ing railroads to equip their trains was
passed in the closing hours of the Har-
rison administration after protracted
and bitter contest.
The act was approved March Il, '93,
and gave the railroads about five years,
or until Jan. l, 1898, to comply with
the law. The same act provided that
the railroads should equip their cars
with hand rails and draw bars before
July /, 1895. The whole purpose of
this legislation was to insure greater
safety for passengers and to give
greater security to brakemen and other
railroad employees in coupling and I'M
coupling cars. During the five years
previous to the passage of the act, the
statistics showed that each year one
employe in every 433 had been killed
and one in every thirty -one injured.
The commission is now beginning to
receive petitions asking for an extern
sion of the time in which the other Sec
tons of the act, providing for automa-
tic couplers and train breakers shall go
into effect, and before Jan. l they
must decide this important question.
The railroads ask from one to ten
years longer than the law applies.
The last reports of the railroads made
to the commission upon their equip
ment april l, 1886 show that the
passenger trains were almost entirely
equipped as required by law, but that
only about one-third of the freight
trains and cars had been provided
with the proper safety appliances.
The figures on that date showed that
of the 1896 passenger cars owned by
the railroads of the country, 1884
were equipped with automatic couplers
and 80, 1865 with train brake appliances.
OF the 1877, $40 freight cars 458,4l0
were equipped with automatic couplers
and 360,303 with train brakes. Of 3d.
285 locomotives, freight and passenger,
20, 1876 were equipped with the driving
wheel brakes provided for by the act.
The last annual report of the COM
mission shows that l,8l1 railroad en-
ployes were killed during the year, and
1866 were injured, a decrease Of
twelve in the number Of killed, 1924 in
the number of the injured, as compared
with the previous year. The decrease
of both killed and injured is largely
attributed to the improvement and
more general use of safety appliances.
Members of the commission feel that
in extending they ieopardize human
life, but they also realize that some of
the railroads have not been financially
able to comply with the law. 1t is
probable that an extension will ulti
mately be granted. Should the COM
mission decide not to grant an extern
sion, the railroads whose cars are not
equipped Jan. l, 1898, will be liable to
fine of 800 for each and every offense
against the act.
