AN ACCIDENT
A. P. TayIor's Critical
Experience.
CoIlided With a Brake While Riding
a Wheel = Bruises and
Broken Bones.

An Advertiser reporter, Mr.. A. P.
Taylor, met with a dangerous accident
yesterday afternoon about o'clock
while riding on his bicycle down King
street on his way to the headquarters
of the Citizens Sanitary Committee.
Mr.. Taylor was riding on the mauka
side of King street, approaching Rich
ards street, when brake driven by
boy, containing also Chinaman, start
ed to cross King street, going up Rich
ards street. A collision then occurred.
Witnesses to the accident say that
they expected Taylor to pass
the brake in the rear and were surpris-
ed when the bicycle was close on TO
the vehicle to see him attempt to pass
in front when there was only matter
of a few feet between the horse and the
curbstone on the mauka side Of King
street 1t was plainly misunderstand-
ing of some kind for the bicycle and its
rider crashed into the horses breast
and the reporter was hurled into the
air falling heavily on his right side I'M
der the animals feet and losing con-
seriousness.
Mr. Taylor was removed temporarily
in a hack to the Board of Health rooms
in the Judiciary building and the patrol
wagon was telephoned for. DR.. Peter
son attended the unconscious man until
he was removed to the Queens Hos
pital. Mr.. Taylor sustained a broken
collar bone and several severe bruises
on the right side of his head. Late last
night he was resting easily and gave
the following explanation of the acct
dent:
Il was riding down King street; the
wind was blowing and it kept my soft
straw hat down over my eyes. Now and
then l would have to put my head down
to keep my hat on. On nearing Rich
ards street l noticed the brake coming
up Richards street, but thought it was
going to turn up or down King street
and had no idea of its going across. I
put my head down against the wind
and went ahead and did not notice the
brake in my way until it was too late
to pass it in the rear when I attempted
to make it in front. The last thing
remember was putting out my hand to
ward off the blow of the collision. The
| boy in the brake was not to blame 1t
was an accident pure and simple
| Captain Kane of the Police depart
ment witnessed the accident and said
that Mr.. Taylor evidently did not see
the brake until it was too late When
/ the bicyclist was hurled from his wheel
nearly everything in his pocekts was
scattered around. Coins were thrown
several yards from the spot 1t is sup
posed that whoever picked these things
up will return them, if they have not
done so already.
The boy who was driving the brake
was arrested, but pond for his ap-
pearance was furnished by the owner
of the vehicle, Mr.. Berliner. Though
Taylor's injuries are very painful they
| are not serious and he is in the best
of spirits and expects to be out again
in a few days.

THE oRPHEUM.
A New Program Tonight With an
After Piece.

After Piece.
A completely new program will hold
the boards this evening. The opening
piece will be Hector" perhaps the
funniest of all embarrassing farces
from the versatile pen of Maurice Hag-
emann, one of the best-known of Amer
1ca's comedians. The farce has many
amusing complications that keep the
audience in perpetual laugh from
start to finish, and should prove a
great attraction.
Miss Oakley, who has already estab-
l1shed herself as favorite, will appear
IN new songs, as will Col. Jean Rogers.
Antonio Pirri will diversity his pro-
gram with new tricks. Jackson
Hearde is expected back by Tuesday
night, and will doubtless renew his
popularity with Orpheum audiences.
Messrs. Rockwell and Dunn will pre-
sent new sketch, entitled "The End
OF 1t All" written by Mr.. Dunn. which
is said to contain a surprise in the
shape of dramatic situation and effect.

Kruger and the Lobbxi.t.

Many years ago when President Kru-
ger was in England he was approached
concerning some concession, railway or
otherwise, by a business man in Lon
don. The negotiations lasted for some
time. One evening the LOndoner, who
was staying at the same hotel, having
spent many hours with Mr.. Kruger and
his companion, went to bed much eX-
hausted and feeling he had not got
quite all he wanted. Next morning he
arose at 9 and went along the corridor
to Mr.. Kruger's bedroom. To his as
constituent it was empty and all the
luggage was gone.
"Oh, sir" said the chambermaid,
MIR. Kruger and his friend left at
this morning" Then, with giggle of
amused Renaissance, the girl added:
"They was a queer couple, sir. and no
mistake. When e passed your door.

Everybody had filed into the little bar

soul was in sight as the engineer
raised the yachts mainsail and pushed
the craft out upon the ice.
Rose darted out of the bushes, and
he lifted her inboard bodily and with
mighty push leaped in himself. The
Ice Wrath started slowly. There was
light but fair wind, and as soon as
they We're out from under the land the
huge sail would feel it.
Franklyn was scarcely seated at the
tiller when there was n wild shout
from the tavern. He glanced back.

heard him yelling for his return ana
threatening to shoot him if he did not
obey.
But the Ice Wrath was steadily
creeping out into the river, and the
sail bellied with the wind. There was
no second shot. but. glancing back.
FRANKLIN saw half n dozen of the men
leap upon horses and into Il Sledge
which stood before the tavern. and the
whole cavalcade clattered away down
the river road. They meant to over
take him ut the landing or head him
off before he reached there.
Are they coming?" cried Rose.
They'll never follow us upon the
ice,' said FRANKLIN cheerfully. There
was some danger from those on the
river road, however. The wind might
die out and leave them stranded, or
the horses might even beat the ice
yacht in the race. The road was con-
sidcrably shorter than the ice route.
1t cut off a big curve in the river ten
miles below.
But the Ice Wrath gathered speed.
With the wind directly astern the ice
began fairly to "Squeal'' beneath the
heavy runners. The powdered ice flew
about them in Il cloud and the huge
sail tugged as though trying to drag
the mast from its socket. FRANKLIN
was determined not to reef the sail I'M
less actually obliged to, and as he tack
ed the Ice Wrath flew about, balanced
upon her StarbOard runners. Rose
screamed and clung to his arm, but the
engineer. CHANGING back, saw the horses
pounding along the river road. and he
rejOiccd that they were gaining upon
their pursuers.
The race was young, however. When
the Ice Wrath went to the eastward
the wind was not so fair. and FRANKLIN
was obliged to tack twice before round
ing the point. Their pursuers had pass
ed them ere this and the engineer half
feared to find them upon the ice be-

He kept the lee Wrath near the east
shore He did not fancy stopping any
bullets from the bushes along the river
bank. They were now quite half way
to the pulp mill landing. He looked
at his watch and saw with delight
that, unless delayed, they would be in
time for the afternoon train.
Far below him a saw tho oppn WA

remembered that he would have to
steer to the west side to avoid the

the woods there. but saw nothing at

He allowed the Ice Wrath to run
gradually over toward that side. The
