A SERIOUS MISHAP
ON THE SOUTH SIDE.
Will Griffith, u CoIored Man, Was
Run Over
By a Wagon-He Had Both His Limbs
and His Head Badly Injured-Some
of His Teeth Knocked Out-Hopes
for His

Will Griffith, a colored man. employ
ed by the A. d. Howe Company. met
with a serious accident on the South
Side yesterday afternoon about two
o'clock. He was riding his bicycle
down Chapline street, and on reaching
Twenty-fourth street in some maner
got between two wagons just as they
were passing each other in close range.
His wheel was struck by the wagon on
his right and he was thrown violently
to the ground. One of the horses step
ped upon his head and the wheels of
the wagon passed over his body. He
had his chez cut, several of his teeth
knocked out and both his limbs badly
injured. He was picked up uncon-
scious and carried into Twins phar-
macy. DR.. Futon was at once sum
moned and the unfortunate man was
given the necessary medical aid. Later
he revived and was removed to his
home on South Main street. The at
tending physician last evening stated
that the patient showed no symptoms
of internal injuries and was resting
as comfortably as could be expected.
While his injuries are of a serious and
painful nature, it is thought that with
care he will recover. 1t is considered
by those who witnessed the accident
that Mr.. Griffith had a. very narrow
escaDe from death.

Col. Plumer apparently has retired to

further off than ever from relief. This

the base hospital has been brought
back to Caberones, though the CORE

the object of the Boer demonstration

cover the removal of the siege guns

We have no doubt that Governor Roose-
Welt has been sincere in his repeated de-
clarations that he does not want the vice
presidency. There are plenty Of reasons
why he should not want it. 1t is not the
kind of an Office which strenuous per-
son like the Rough Rider would naturally
take to. 1t is altogether too quiet and
easy. To do nothing but preside over
the Senate would prove exceedingly irk-
some TO one of Roosevelt's temperament.
Then Roosevelt is supposed to cherish
aspirations for the presidency, and the
vice presidency only leads TO 1t in case Of
death or incapacity of the President. The
governorship of New York is altogether
better fitted for man like him,
and better calculated TO promote his am.
bition to go up higher. Yet unless he
puts his foot down harder than he has
yet done he is liable to have the Vice
presidency thrust upon him.

1t is now almost week since anything
authentic has come from Picking. For
all we know the legations may have been
burned, though this is not probable. They
are at the mercy of the natives, howey er,
and are likely TO be for some time to come,
for Admiral Seymour's relief expedition
has turned back to Tlentsin. What effect
the conflict between the Chinese forts and
the international fleet is likely to have
upon the troubles in the interior one
person can guess as well as another. II
is to be feared that 1t may stir up the
insurgents, where they are masters-of the
situation, as in Picking, TO take revenge
ON foreigners, especially as the Empress
Dowager is in sympathy with them, and
news from the interior viii be awaited
