EXCITING RUNAWAY.
Driver Narrowly Escaped Being struck by
Runaway Horses.

While Jesse Laudermau was drivinga team
down Locust Mountain towards the junction
Of the Ringtown aud BrAndonville roads this
morning the horses ran away. Lauderman
was thrown into the muddy highway, but
escaped injury. The horses took the front
truck of the wagon with them and dashed
down Main street at a terrific pace, barely
escaping collision with several teams ON the
way. As the horses turned west into
Centre street the speed at which they were
going caused them to make a long turn and
it looked as if the horses and truck would
swing into the Ferguson House area They
got into the middle of the street again. A
teamster at Pear alley pulled his horses aside
just in time to escape the runawys. Near
Jardin street was NJ. =. Fowler's team in
charge of Patrick Burke with load of
lumber. Burke took in the situation at a
glance when he saw the team approach He
first turned his horses slightly from
the middle of the street, but
finding he could not get the team
to the curb in time he jumped
from the truck and hurried to the sidewalk
The runaway team sped on in straight line
for the truck Burke had abandoned but when
close to it one of the horses jumped aside.
The other made sudden springas If to jump
over the hind wheel and dropped in such Il
manner that its front legs landed between
the front and rear wheel on the right hand
side Of the truck and the rear part of its
body became wedged between the lumber ON
the truck and the rear wheel That ended
the runaway and all the spectators agreed
that the two hind legs of the captive horse
were broken. To the surprise of everybody
the horse kicked himself free and by half
somersault threw itself from the truck when
two or three men were planning to remove
the wheel that held the animal. Neither
Of the horses was injured

Out on the water in the moonlight A
more beautiful or romantic situation for a
young man to tell the story of his love and
ask the young woman of his choice to share
his life cannot be imagined.
Tie Courtship of a young couple may be
ever so romantic and their married life be
very unhappy There are common sense
considerations outside of love that have
world to do with the making of married
happiness. One of the most important of
these considerations is the good health of
both parties to the sacred tie. The Young
man who is i'll the incipient stages of con
sumption commits a crime if he marries
before he is restored to health. He CON
demns his wife to the life of a nurse and
his children to early death, or lives of sick
ness and suffering. DR.. Pierces Golden
Medical Discovery cures oS per cent of all
cases of consumption if taken in its earlier
stages. This is its record established dur
ing the past thirty years. 1t is the great
blood maker, flesh builder nerve tonic and
general restorative.
The young woman who suffers from weak
ness and disease of the delicate and i'm
portant organs that make wifehood and
motherhood possible has no right to answer
Yes" to young mans proposal until she
is thoroughly restored to health in a wom-
auly way. DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
tion prepares a woman for wifehood and
motherhood. 1t makes her strong, healthy
and vigorous where a woman most needs
health, strength and vigor, Thousands of
women have testified to its merits

The Duty of Democrats.

The SENTINEL, the Oldest and
only genuine Democratic paper at
the Nations Capital, has always
had the interest and welfare OF
the party and people at heart, and
therefore hates to see the Democ-
racy misled and forced into mi
quitouS and dangerous channels by
such undemccratic principles as
the New York T0uyuak and other
papers Of that ilk advocate. The
duty of every Democrat is to op-
pose this ImDerialistic Annexation
Policy as regards the Philippines,
and instead of subjugating a peo-
pie by force who are fighting for
their independence, liberty and
freedom, we should recognize,
foster and assist then in establish
ing a stable republican form of
government.
Keep your hands off the Nicara-
PVan Canal.
Fight the passage of such bill
to the bitterest end.
Stand by the counsels OF your
fathers and the old traditional pol
icy OF Washington, Jefferson, Nor
ris and Jay.
Remember that under the Con-
stitution of the United States, no
power is given to the Federal
Government to acquire territory
to be held and governed perma-
nently as colonies.
Uphold the Constitution.
Force an investigation rs re-.
CARDS the financial and cruel mis-
management Of the war.
Cut down your War Expendi-
lures.
Repeal the War Taxes.
This is a duty which you owe
to your party and to your country.

In the new melodrama, Tempest
Tossed" which comes to the Academy

story dealing with the rugged, storm
beaten fishermen and their sea life and
domestic circles. The action begins
with the abduction Of the herO's sister
by the city bred william; a murder is next
laid al the fisherman door; the explo-
sion Of lighthouse To aid the Villains
schemes, and in the last act we see
heroic rescues from the kissing breakers,
and happiness comes to the deserving.

Senator Vest Leads on.

The FIRST gun OF formal opposi-
ton to the Presidents policy OF
acquiring the Philippines was fred
in the Senate this week. Senator
Vest was responsible for the attack
and put himself on record as the
first Democratic Senator to oppose
expansion when he introduced a
resolution in opposition.
y dpator Vest said that he took
y initiative IN inaugurating the
light upon the Philippines because
he believes that the policy oil the
President is one that menaces the
safety of the Republic. He has
given notice that he would in the
near future make oPosSh on his
resolution.
After a careful canvass we h1d
that the bulk OF the Democratic
side OF the Senate is in thorough
sympathy with the position as
sumed by our sterling old friend
Mr.. Vest. 1t is a great opportun-
itY for the Democrats to make
party capital out Of the policy to
which the Republican party is
committed. They will debate the
proposed treaty. at great length,
and it is said if they fight the next
campaign upon this issue and win,
they will be perfectly justified in
Withholding the appropriations for
the Philippines in the next Con
uGress. Senator German is opposed
the policy outlined in the treaty
Ind Senators Faulkner and Dan
Ytels are emphatically committed in
opposition. Senator Mills is also
antagonistic, while the position Of
Senator Jones. Of Arkansas, is
equally determined. Senator CAT
ferry, OF Louisiana, will fight the
treaty to the last ditch.
The SENTINEL would advise the
Democratic Senators to hold a
raucus to consi der their plan Of
Iction as soon as possible,
