DANGER OF A BORROWED Umbrella
Mr.. Aurand Carried One and Had
an Electric Shock.

Rea1 Estate Dealer James Aurand, OF
No. 1851 Grove street, received an electric
shock in a peculiar and unexpected man
ner last evening". During h shower he
nassed in front of a well known Newark
clothing dealers windows n was
attracted by some object in one OF the
windows.
He held above his head an umbrelia
ea,1ipped with a steel rod. The tip OF
the rod somehow got in under the bottom
opening of one of the arc electric ligEts
in front of the store. 1t acted as a light
ming rod.
Instantly Mr.. Aurand received a terrihc
electric shock in his right hand. arm and
right side of his body. He dropped to his
knees and almost howled with pain.
Pedestrians ooked on with amazement.
Tinted spurts of blush fame played up
and down the umbrella rod until ne fell
ON his knees and with difficulty dropped
the umbrella from his grasp.
The umbrella belonged to Herman II.
Haas. Mr.. Aurand had been caught in
the shower and Mr.. Haas proffered his
umbrella.

THINKS HE |SA SPLINTER.
W. 7. Smith Says He Was
Chased Through Brook
| lyn Streets sA ''9a

William Thomas Smith, of No. 2oS PAIL
sade avenue. was arrested last nlslit in
Brooklyn. He was taken to the Adams
street station. There he said he ~was
twenty-five and had a wife and three
children.
When arraigned before Magistrate
Bremen on a technical charge of vag-
rancy he told this story
Your Honor. l came to New YORK
yesterday to look for work and met a
friend named Brainard. We went to a
theatre together, and after the play my
friend left me. I was walking through
Union Square at two o'clock this morn
ing when I saw a number of men sit
ting on benches in their shirt sleeves.
They foolishly fancied that | had com
planned to the police about their appear
ance. What did | care about their APP
pearance? Why should / complain, for
that was neither here nor there? Eigh-
teen of them, some white, some colored,
moved upon me in a solid phalanx. They
ran. 7 ran. Down Broadway | dashed
with the bowling fiends hot on my trail.
In and out through many streets | ran,
finally got to the Barclay street FER
ry. 1t is singular, Your n that
while I got there first they were there
ahead of me. 7 wheeled about. l ran
ND town. I dashed hither and thither,
through different streets and
md, finally, after L had got my third
wind. 1 put on such a terrible burst OF
speed that I distanced them all, ana
they gave up their wild goose chase.
with infinite care and secrecy | wend-
ed my way to the Brooklyn Bridge.
There three men seemed to rise up out
of the ground by my side. A tea wagon
dashed into the south roadway. I jump
ed aboard, told the driver to whip up his
horses. and off we We're as fast as any
John Gilpin that ever drew the breath of
life. I fancied that | was clear OF my
pursuers at this end of the Bridge, but
there, as 1 leaped from the wagon, the
same old pack of human ~bloodhounas
surrounded me. 1 sprinted up Fuitoh
street. turned into the streets leading to
Columbia Heights, doubled on my tracks,
got back to the Annex ferry, where Po-
liceman Thomas McDonough saved me
from the crowd by taking me to the sta
ton house.
ssNow. then, Your Honor, will you
kindly let a policeman accompany me 10
Jersey, where I shall be safe among my
friends? Here, sir, I am afraid OF the
crowds that will follow me-"
Magistrate Bremen sent to Jersey City
for friends of Smith to protect him on
his way home. Smith was well dressed,
and evidently had temporary haliuclha-
tions, caused by the extreme heat. II
is believed that he did traverse at great
speed many of the streets and avenues
in Manhattan and Brooklyn, as reports
from along the route he followed de-
scribe a man of his appearance running
and yelling like a mailman.

The latest native of Elmira to return
from the sunny South is a valuable
pointer that came on foot all the way
from South Carolina to his home in this
city because he was homesick. The dog
was the property of John H.. Sullivan, a
law student. A family named Bum, iIv-
ing near the Sullivans' on Kenyon street,
who had been friends of the Sullivan
family, signiied their intention of moving
70 South Carolina to live. A large dog.
which was owned by the Sullivans, spent
much of his time between the two houses,
sometimes staying for days at a time
with one of the families and then leaving
for the other house suddenly. When the
Rl1nns moved to South Carolina they
asked the Sullivan family to give up their
interest in the dog. SO that they could
take him with them. This was agreed
70. and the last that was seen of the dog
in Elmira was when the train pulled out
Of the station with the dog securely tied
in the baggage car. Three months later
the Sullivan family heard a strange noise
at the door. They opened 1t and We're
astonished to see the dog which they had
given to the Bunn family several months
ago and which they supposed was miles
way. The joy of the animal to find
himself among his friends again, knew
no hounds. He was so weak from hunger
and exhaustion from the long journey
that II was at first thought he would not
live. The animals feet were SO blistered
and swollen tina after he had been home
an hour or two he could not walk. What
route the animal took or how long he mad
beer on the way is not oWns-Elrn

Deafness Cannot be Cured.

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure Deafness. and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an iniamed condition of the
mucuous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube gets infiamed you have a
rumbling sound of imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed deafness is the
result. and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored TO its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine case out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but
an nHamed condition of the mucueus

THE SPEED OF SHIPS
How 1t Has Been Gradually lncrsas-
ed During IN Past Few Years.

Sneed of a. ship is a vital factor in ma
rine engineering for the greatest improve
ments in design and manufacture lave
resulted from the demands for higher
speeds.
Twenty-Five years ago the highest sea
speeds for merchant steamers were less
than sixteen knots, and for war vessels
were even less, except in such notable
cases as the cruiser Wampanoag, of the
United States Navy. In the merchant SER
vice the increase of speed has been grad
ual since the advent of the Arizona with
seventeen knots. every few years at least
bringing out one or more faster gray
hounds" until we ave the Kaiser VIII
helm de Crosse with a record of 564
knots for a days steaming and an aver
age for thai day of 22.SS knots.
After the wonderful record of the Wam-
panoag, in 1868, when she averaged over
seventeen knots for six hours, the speeds
of war vessels fell off for a time, and
did not again become noteworthy until
the performance of the Esmeralda, built
by the Armstrong; in 1883. That vessel
made over eighteen knots, and inaugur-
ated the present era of high speeds, Civ
ing us the triple-screw flyers, Columbia
and Minneapolis, of the United States
Navy, each of which held the record for
a time at 22.S and 23.7 knots until an
other Armstrong vessel, the Buenos
Ayres, of the Argentine Navy, captured
it with a speed of 23.2 knots.
The record for torpedo boats is still
more remarkable. Beginning more than
twenty years ago, with lengths of less
4Laa nm faat op1 c,1aodS Of nipQfapO knots
torpedo boats have grown into u YES
sells as the Forban, of thirty-one knots,
and the phenomenal phenomenal because
of the small size of vessel-only 44.5 tons)
Turbina. of thirty-one knots; and with
them have come the destroyers with
speeds of thirty-two knots, and, If we
can believe the reports, one of Schiehau's
boats, which is said to have recently
made ~thirty-five knots.
The same increase of speed is clearly
evident for battleships and arnored cruis-
ers, where we nave now reached the point
of twenty-three knots for the Jeanne
dare n the new Powerfuls and twenty
one knots for the projected italian battle
ships.
If we can argue fairly from these rec
ords, it must be very evident that the
tendency is toward still higher speeds,
and such is undoubtedly the case.
It would be futile to attempt a predic-
tion as to the limit of Speed. Thirty
years ago the speeds which are now COM
mon would have been deemed incredible,
and. while it does no seem possible that
there could be such an increase in the
future, no one can fix the limit. The in
crease in speed has been made possible
by the improved economy of the ma
chinery and the reduction of weight per
unit Of power, the former being an inn
portant element in the latter.
