TO ITS SENSES.
POyntell Johnston, II years old, son
of Tilghman Johnston, of No. l1O5 JET
ferson street, performed an heroic act
ON Delaware avenue last evening, and
probably saved the life of a young
woman whose name cannot be ascer-
tanned
A carriage drove up in front Of a
house at Delaware avenue and Madison
street The driver, young man, alight-
ed. took turn of the lines about the
standard Of the carriage top, and walk
ed Off leaving the horse unhltched and
the young woman waiting for his re-
turn. When he was about fifteen feet
from the carriage the horse took fright
at something and made bolt out the
avenue. Several men attempted TO stop
the animal, but it was goigng at dead
run, and they all fell back. One man
raised his umbrella in front Of the
horse. but il merely sweTved to the
other track and speeded on faster than
ever, the frightened girl crOuching back
in the carriage, which was closed in at
the sides.
Young Johnston was walking on the
avenue with a friend. Seeing the rum
away and the sorry plight Of the girl
he started to run as the team neared
him, and in some miraculous manner,
worked his way between the wheels and
into the carriage. Once there he seized
the lines, and so handled them as TO
| bring the horse to a standstill.
A crowd cOngregated, and everyone
was NEST favOrably impressed by the
modesty Of his demeanor as he sur
rendered the team, and continued his
walk not waiting to receive either
thanks or praise for his daring exploit.

DANGERS OF DELAY.

1t is questionable if President Nc
Kinley's delay in transmitting his
message to congress is a safe policy.
1t is of course desirable that all Amerl-
can citizens in Havana be given an op-
pcrtunity to come home before an open
ruptul shall be prescipitaed. But the
delay in bringing them home is mex
cusable. For two weeks the president
Maine board of inquire, and has known
that whatever action might be taken
by-this government the matter was
liable to result in war, therefore it was
his duty. to long ere this. supply Con-
sul-General Lee ana other Americans
in Cuba an opportunity to get away.
His message to congress was
promised last Monday, but it has been
delayed a week in order to make prepa-
ra:ions that should have been per-
fected long ago. In this week Spain
has not been inactive. She has been
able to get feet of torpedo boats and
torpedo destroyers within reach of
Cuba, so in the event of war, she will
be much more formidable opsonent
.han she would otherwise have been.
Had the president taken the precaution
to get all Americans away from Cuba
as soon as the report of the board of
inquiry was received, he could have
been prepared to strike decisive blow
while Spain was unp-epared for action.
But by his delay he has given Spain
an opportunity to mobelize her forces,
and should war result, which has been
apparently inevitable for some time
past, it will be more disastrous for
America than it would have been had
more activity been displayed. The
delay that has been forced upon con-
gress by the president cannot but re-
suit disastrously to the United States,
and will cost it many lives and mill
lions of dollars when war shall occur.
