RUNAWAY.

Mr.. Mills McNeel's horse and tran
were left standing in rear of Read &
DuPre's store Friday afternoon, when
from some unknown cause the horse
started in fright and ran at full speed
on north side of the square, the trap
striking tree in front of Mrs. Schoen-
that's store and pitching the body a
somersault in front of Mr.. Crosby's
drug store. The horse then kept his
gait, churning the mud at every stride.

where the wheels struck corner post
of the fencing, which detached the
harness and left the vehicle in badly
wrecked condition. while the fiery Pc
gasus sped swiftly towards to court
house and passed down Washington
Avenue at rapid gait that would have
fired Mr. McNeel's heart with enthu-
siasm if he had been behind the steed
handling the reins.

DESTROYS CONFIDENCE

Very often we hear the remark that
certain men ARE honest and would pay
every cent they owe if they could. y
This is true of great many true
men, yet. except in cases of unavoida-
BILE misfortune, it is condition that no
man should allow to stand against him.
If man is honest he ought to find
some means of meeting his obligations,
unless, as above stated, he is the victim
OF i'll fortune. The great trouble with
the world is not dishonesty, but indif-
ference and indiscretion. The man
VIII" is behind in debt should be will
ling to wear an old coat rather than to
purchase a new one at the expense of
his credit. Better by far is it to cut ia
BILE fare little short and wear patched
trousers than to have creditors cursing
your indiscretion, even though they
admit your honesty.

PERILOUS.

A passenger on south bound train
last Saturday stepped off the train
while it was standing at the depot, and
didn't attempt to get on until it was
moving quite rapidly the consequence
was when he attempted to jump upon
the platform of the car he missed his
footing and was dragged some distance
and finally had to turn loose, the train
leaving him behind. The flesh in the
palms Of his hands was badly lacera-
ted and bleeding, and his pants were
nearly torn off. He had to buy new
pair of pants, have his hands dressed
train. There is too much risk getting
off and on moving trains.

We cannot doubt that the presence

giant entertainments have declined,

outlook and more varied reading, the
introduction of the picked young men
Of the poorer classes and of the best
minds from India, the United States,
and the British colonies is a fact the
beneicent Importance of which can
scarcely be overestimated. The uni
versity is broaaened, is rendered more
human, and it approximates far more
nearly to the great ideal of the medi-
aval university as it was understood at
Paris, Bologna and Oxford. That ideal
was not a mere national class institu-
ton, far less a Observation-Disclosures,
where capacity for getting up facts
was to be tested. It was a place
where, as Matthew Arnold said, the
best that had been thought and known
was to be studied, where q generous
enthusiasm for ideas and for the con-
duet of life was to be generated, where
not mere learned machines but high
seuled men were to be produced. 1t
is true that Oxford and Cambridge
have never encouraged the idea of
mere pedantic learning for its own
sake; perhaps they have erred too
much the other way. But they have
been narrow, they have been affected
by class bias and by ecclesiastical pre-
judice. Now they are humanized and
broadened by the inclusion of new
classes and the devotion to wider
ideals and the ladder of learning, from
elementary school to university, is
proving a powerful means of effecting
this desirable end.-London Specta-

AASAs
Not only are all OF the old-time
amusements Of the Tenderloin pre-
cinct wide open" now, but an old
swindle has been revived to the loss OF
several RESTAURANT keepers. It is
worked by a smartly dressed young
man whose method Is the same in each
restaurant. He enters the place about
midnight and orders an elaborate sup
per with something to drink. When
the time comes to pay his check he
pulls out a $40 bill and asks the waiter
How much?" He holds this bill be-
tween his third and fourth fingers and
a cigarette between his other two fin
gers. AS the waiter makes out the
check the young man carelessly holds
a lighted match to his cigarette and
incidentally to his ten-dollar bill. The
latter begins to burn, and when the
walters attention is attracted by the
young mans cry of dismay the bill has
been destroyed. That's the last one

that the bill destroyed was either for
