THE SWOLLEN OHIO RIVER.
The Limit OF the Rise Reached and Now
Slowly Faiiing-west Virginia
Rivers still Rising.

CINCINNATI, March 30.-The Ohio
river reached the limit of its rise at 8
a. m. when il stood at ola feet. Since
then il has been falling slowly, and will
continue TO do so until Thursday, when
the decline will be rapid. 1t is now
falling from Pittsburgh to Cincinnati.
The West Virginia rivers are rising,
but not enough TO show any material
effect in the Ohio
The railroads are much restricted as
70 freight traffic by reason of connect
ing tracks and yard tracks being food
ed, but the passenger traffic is proceed
ing with almost the usual regularity.
The baltimore & Ohio Southwestern
track has been restored at Chillicothe.
and trains are running east as usual.
Submerged track between here and
Aurora, Ind, compels both the Big

A WOMAN SSIEADY NERVE
Ex-Secretary Whitney's Daughter,
? Mrs. Almeric Hugh Paget, In
an Exciting Runaway.
SHE NEVER LOST HER SUPERB NERVE.
Severely Injured. Mrs. Paget Assisted
the Coachman In Finally Checking the
FrensIed Horses, Aiighting Perfectly
Cool and self-Possessed.

NEW YORK. March 30.-The cool head
and prompt, steady nerve of Mrs Al
meric Hugh Paget, daughter of exSec-
Rotary of the Navy William c. Whit
ney, were called into action Monday
evening. They doubtless saved her
life. She was the only occupant OF an
open carriage in thrilling runaway,
in which q footman was seriously in
jurea.
Mrs. Paget was being driven in an
open Victoria drawn by two spirited
horses, which were going at lively
pace up Fifth avenue, when they start
ed to run. The coachmen, Osrick Cock
bourne, pulled on the reins, but before
he grasped the situation the horses
were thoroughly frightened. Crazed
with terror, they snatched the reins
from the coachman's hands and tore
up the avenue, while horror-stricken
crowds gaped along the walks expect
ing disaster at every corner. At East
Sixty-second street truck was stand
ing. 1t was narrowly avoided as the
horses turned past. Cock bourne had
recovered the reins, but the animals
were beyond his control. The Victoria
ceeled across the curb, throwing John
Mckenzie, the footman, to the pave
ment, where he lay for some minutes
unconscious.
Mrs. Paget, who was grasping tho
sides of the carriage to keep her seat,
evidently realized that her life depend
ed largely upon her present efforts to
hrfn ~ h.. HnrSac 20, he
and leaning forward, grasped the
coachman's seat. Then she quietly
told Cock bourne to let her help at the
reins. Cock bourne, bending forward,
let the slack OF the reins drag, and Mrs.
Paget, grasping it. threw her full
strength backward to hold the horses.
At Fourth avenue collision between
the Victoria and a cable car was
narrowly averted, and similar escape
at Third avenue was really miraculous.
Just beyond Third avenue the Victoria
struck truck and turned almost over.
Mrs. Paget half fell, blu. pluckily held
her grip on the reins. At Second
avenue the united strength of Mrs.
Paget and the coachman checked the
horses, and by the help of a policeman
they were stopped.
Mrs, Paget, pale but cool and self
possessed, alighted from the Victoria

WOMEN AND THE WHEEL.
From the Gazette, Delaware. Ohio.

From the Gazette, Delaware. Ohio.
The healthfulness OF bicycle riding for
women is still disputed question between
eminent physicians and health reformers.
Used in moderation it surely creates for

benefit OF which all physicians concede.

Nv at that rnte for two weeks He
~ was satisfied then, from her high
pulse and steadily wasting condition that
she was suffering from anaemia or a bloodless
condition of the body. She became ex-
tremely weak, and could not stand the least
noise or excitement. In this condition OF
affairs they were recommended by an old
friend to get some of that famous blood
medicine DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People. They did so. and almost from the
first dose Bertha began to improve. She
continued to take the pills and was by means
OF those pills made entirely well, and more
