A train from Boston loaded with
passengers for Chicago and western
points had a hair-raising experience
with n runaway freight and for a
few moments it was expected that
the entire train would be hurled into
eternity. A freight train of As cars
had pulled out of the tunnel six miles
from Harpersville, y. y, and started
down heavy siN-1nile grade when
the brakes failed to hold and the
train attained fearful velocity.
The engineer stuck to his post, real
izing the danger to the passenger
train ahead. He blew the whistle con-
tinuously, hoping to give warning be-
fore it was too late. The passenger
was standing at the Harpersville de-
pot and, hearing the whistling, sur.
missed the cause instantly. 1t pulled
out of the yard, but none too soon
for the freight could be seen ap,
proachipg at lightning speed.
The trains raced to Nineveh. the

grade was struck, which Stacked TIL,

to stop 60 feet from the last pas

II feel. as young
now, at thirty, as I
did at eighteen years
of age"

That is part eof the statement of one
woman, mother of six children, who
found new life by the use of DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription. 1t is not the or
binary cares of the family, nor the natu-
raj obligations of motherhood, which
make women prematurely old. But it is
the womanly diseases, draining away the
vitality, and undermining the strength,
which take the roundness and supple
ness from the form, the bloom from the
cheek and the brightness from the eye.
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription cures
those womanly diseases which rob women
of youth and beauty. 1t establishes reg
ularity, dries enfeebling drains, heals
Inflammation and liberation, and cures
female weakness. It makes weak women
strong and sick women we'll. 1t brings
back TO the mother the ightheartedness
of her bridal day. This is the testimony
of thousands Of women who have re-
newed their youth by the use Of aFa-
yorite Prescription"

natives were getting out of the hack
when Mr.. Emmeluth pounced down
upon one of them and laid him low.
The other native fled and the one
knocked down scrambled to his feet

THEY LEARNED WHO
BLACK MARIA WAS
Two Natives Disturbed the
Slumbers of Judge
Wilcox.

At 2 o'clock yesterday morning the
police station clerk received a telephone
message from Judge Wilcox TO send the
patrol wagon out to his place in Ka-
lihi district and capture two men who
were trying to break into one of his
houses. The Deputy Sheriff and two
officers jumped into the wagon and the
horses were driven at wild speed to
assist the Judge in his attempt to frus-
trate the criminals. They secured the
roads around the Judges residence and
finally located his honor standing near
the poi factory, attired in a fancy suit
of pajamas and Chinese slippers.
He told the officers that there were
two natives at one of his tenants
houses trying to force their way in,
and asking for Annie" When the
Judge asked the men their reason for
disturbing his honor's slumbers, they
again asked for Annie" Captain Ka-
nae just then doomed up in the dark
ness. and the Judge pointed to his
burly form and suavely remarked,
There's Annie, and Black Maria is out
there in the road IL you want her." The
men turned about and Captain Kanae's
long arms encircled one man, and the
Deputy Sheriff did likewise with his
companion. The BLACK Maria" was
backed up to the scene and then the
natives learned her identity. Yester-
day they were fined the usual amount
for drunkenness.
