RUNAWAY ON MEADOW STREET
A Team and Hack Miraculously Escap-
 cd Damage

A Team and Hack Miraculously Escap-
 ed Damage.
 About o'clock yesterday afternoon team attached to brand new hack was standing in front of livery stable on George street, when the team became frightened and started on a wild run down George street. The horses turned down Meadow street, and drivers of teams on the street seeing them coming turned out of their way. At the lower end of the street the car tracks are torn up and new rails are being laid, but the runaway steered clear of the holes in the street and dashed on towards the depot. At the depot corner a trolley car was standing, and the motorman seeing the runaway team coming back ed his car out of their way. Just in front of the depot one of the horses slip ped and fell back on his launches, and this stopped the team. The driver ap- peared on the scene soon after the team stopped and on making an examination discovered that not a thing was broken about the hack or harness, and that neither of the horses was so much as scratched. There was not even scratch on the paint of the new hack The es- cape of the outfit from damage was con- sidered remarkable by those who saw the runaway.

 ka-Cotton Doing Better.
 Washington, July 24.--Following is the weather bureaus weekly summary of crop conditions:
 Rain is very generally needed in the Atlantic coast districts north of Flori- da, the drought being quite severe in the Carolinas.

 Rains have interfered with thrashing and with the completion of the winter wheat harvest where unfinished over the more northerly sections of the cen- tral valleys; but the conditions have been highly favorable for harvesting in the Middle Atlantic states and on the North Pacific coast. In the central val leys and lake region harvesting and thrashlng have not only been delayed, but rains have caused injury to grain in shock In portions of these districts.
 Spring wheat harvest is in general progress in South Dakota and portions of Minnesota, and has begun in North Dakota. In South Dakota and Minne- sota the crop has made advancement, although excessive rains and local hail. storms have caused some damage in southeastern South Dokato In North Dakota the high temperatures have proved injurious, and in Oregon and Washington the crop has suffered from hot winds.
 Oat harvest is nearing completion in the central valleys, where the crop has suffered to some extent from the heavy rains.
 Having has been interrupted and the crop damaged to some extent by rains in the central valleys In New York and New England having Is practically finished. the yield in New York being better than expected

 be very careful. Had she not recog- nized me first I should have passed on saying nothing. Those higher in social position than We are must recognize us first or we remain quiet.
 Don't be mean with the cook One good turn deserves another. If you are well served in the kitchen and your guests reward you at the table remember those back of the swinging doors who promptly fill your order, and fill it well. l always had the reputa- tion In the kitchen of being a swell man, because I declared liberal divl- dends in the kitchen. I of course, al- ways got the best meats. vegetables and fruits for my guests. You will learn all of that when you are older. A waiter must never think of keeping all he gets if he expects to make success of it. The more he tips the kitchen the better his chances are of success. I once had guest who nave me q sealed envelope to give to the cook, or the man who filled my orders in the kitch- en. That envelope had two-dollar bill in it. That mans orders were filled up to the handle. They called him an an- gel He was kind to me, too and when my orders went in they went in labelled for the angel If you get any such men take good care of them. But I will write you more next month.

DEATH OF CHARLES HoYT.
at Charlestown, N. H.-vic-
tim of Paresis.

charlestown, N. H., Nov. 21.-Charles
II. Hoyt, the well-known playwright,
died at his residence here at 7:15
O'Clock Tuesday night of paresis, from
which he had been suffering for several
months past. Ever since his return to
Charlestown, after his release from
private asylum at Hartford, by order
OF the court early in August, it has
been known by his attendants and
nearest friends that his condition was
serious, and that there was little OF
no chance for his recovery, but Mr..
10Y apparently had seemed hopRruT
OF ultimate recovery. Previous to two
weeks ago there appeared to be slight
improvement in his condition, although
he had periods of depression. About
two weeks ago his appetite failed, and
he had bad turn, from which he only
partially recovered. Since that time
he has been unable to take any except
liquid nourishment, but continued to
be up and around his room until Mon
day. He steadily lost strength, and
Tuesday morning he suffered relapse
and became unconscious, in which con-
dition he remained until death came.
