GLENBURN.

Last evening, about o'clock, Mas
ter Leighton Miles hooked up his
grandfather's (Andrew LeightOn's)
young Hamblatonian mare, Dolly, to
drive 10 church at Waverly, mile
and Il half distant. Leaving her at
the door without tying, he ran into
the house ana hastily donning his
overcoat and arctics, returned two or
three minutes later to find her gone.
A quick investigation proved that the
mare had not gone back To the barn.
Next followed n hurried visit to neigh
boring premises, on all sides, equally
fruitless. A council of war decided
that the next objective point should
be the church at Waverly. In half an
hour, young Miles drove up at lively
pace. having found Dolly standing
patiently in the cold blast, not tied, in
the driveway between the parsonage
and the church. The lines We're over

graceS and the sweet-voiced singer.
whose songs have delighted thousands.
WAS given Il characteristic reception by
the Carbondale people last night when
the Grand WAS filled with II crowded
audience. 1t was an expression or
warm-h hearted admiration that surely
must have pleased Olrott. though he
may be accustomed to singing before
big audiences.
The play, Garrett OMash," in which
Olcolt is in the title role, is of the same
type in which this Irish minstrel is to
be found each Year. He is Il romantic
lover. Il role in which he is ut home.
ANA makes everybody else about him
feel the same way. The piece is of the
liShtest comedy, with plenty OF funny
situations, though il may not sparkle
with wit. The fun is pure. light
hearted and wholesome. there is an
abundance of it, ana. coupled With Oh
cOtt'S singing, il offers Il truly delight

satisfied and pleased to have laughed

AT The HOSPITAL.
Several Patients Received and One
charged-Brakeman Humphrey
Improving.

Patrick Healcy, of the West Side,
who was obliged on Saturday to submit
TO the loss of one eye in an operation
at Emergency hospital. in order to pre-
serve the other, is improving. The i'll
dications are most favorable. and the
danger to the other eye that was ap-
pretended when the afflicted eye was Ut
its worst stage is now removed.
Edward Burke of Pike street, the
young man who slipped on an icy side
walk a few days ago, has been removed
to the hospital and is getting along
we'll.
1t will be good news to the friends of
young William Priestley, of Birkett
street, to learn that his leg will not
have to be amputated. He was q driver
boy at the Wilson Greek mine and had
his foot badly squeezed while riding on
u "bob-taiI' engine, near the mine.
Subsequently he was removed to the
hospital, where the leg was placed in n
paster cast. This eXpedient availed.
and while Priestly will spend some
time as Il hospital patient he will have
the use OF his limb.
Jacob Humphrey of Cadosia, the On
tariO and Western brakeman, who had
such narrow escape from death in the
wreck in the yard here, several weeks
ago continues to improve and the staff
at the hospital is correspondngly
lated, as his condition was almost
hopeless when he was admitted for
treatment. He was in an almost dying
condition and had to suffer the ampu-
alton of one leg, just below the knee.
fie was greatly run down, and despite
the heroic work of the staff, unfavor-
bile indications increased each day.
until it was feared that either the leg
would have to be amputated ut the hip
or he would die from septic poisoning.
About Il week ago an unexpected,
though hoped for, change for the better
was manifested. Since then Humphrey
has shown signs each day OF increasing
vitality and now the prospects are
bright for his recovery
