Al MOST MIRACULOUS ESCAPE
Travelling Men Attempting to Catch
a Stage Have Thrilling Exper-
fence with Runaway Team.

= According to a story related by j. T..
Moore, travelling representative OF the
California Packing Co., and who halls
from San Francisco he had thrilling ex-
perience, with runaway team, near
Pony, the other day, which he will not
forget for some time. The story was told
to a party of friends in the lobby OF the
Finlen hotel last night and is certainly
worthy of repetition.
Mr. Moore, it appears. and three other
travelling men We're anxious to eaten the
Virginia City stage and made the trip
from Fergus to Pony in a wagon driven
by Fred Noble Of Fergus The journey
was made without incident until short
distance from Pony. when the horses
became unmanageable and ran away.
The travelling companions Of Mr.. Moore
jumped for their lives, when total de-
struct'on of the wagon and Geath or ser
ions injury seemed imminent and later
when there appeared to be certainty
that the wagon and horses would pitch
down the steep hill side, Noble jumped.
after calling to Mr.. Moore to follow him.
Noble got hard fall and broke his right
leg Mr. Moore remained in the wagon.
After tearing along the road for about
three hundred yards, during which time
the wagon was first on two side wheels
and then on the others, the horses Stun
bled and FELL rolling down the steep hill
side AS they fell the wagon rolled over
throwing Mr.. Moore in heap. He was
stunned but escaped without lnJuhy OF
any consequence. The horses and wagon
continued to the bottom of the hill, where
the wagon tongue buried itself In the
soft earth. The horses We're bruised ana
scra tched, but not seriously injured.
Mr. Moore thinks he had an almost
miraculous escape and says had he not
been thrown from the wagon when 1t be-
gan rolling down the hill, he would have
met certain death. His companions die
not see him fall from the wagon. ant
supposed when it pitched down the hill
side he had been carried with it and kill

they were able to get team to drive t.

II is the Sabbath of Sabbaths. Jewish
atonement differs from the atonement Of
any other faith. It is not an atonement
OF blood, nor Of vicarious sacrifice; 1t is
individual, and its efficacy rests upon the
honesty of the Individual. The sages Of
the Talmud ask, Can a word or a
thought annul an evil deed? They an
swer, No; some good deed must make
amends for the evil done. Words are
not final; action is imperitive.'
?, About the Day Of Atonement.
1.-THE day Of atonement Is a fast day.
'Ye shall affliot your souls is interpreted
to mean fasting. The fast is in itself
by no means an atonement for the
wrongs of the year. A better life after
the day has been consecrated is the all
important consideration. The worshiper
fasts because he is supposed to be so
overwhelmed with remorse for his lapse
from right conduct that he forgets about
eating and drinking.
1.-THE sincere worshiper, by whole
hearted and single minded participation
in the solemn Yom Kippur must neces-
sarily be benefited. The honest Jew
leaves the tempe at the conclusion of the
Yom Kippud with the firm resolve "a
lead the noblest life of which he Is capa-
bile.
The day Of atonement Is a consecra-
ton not alone for the Jew. but breathes
the fervent hope that the day will dawn
when all humanity will be in harmonious
brotherhood"
The services will be held in the South
NJ. r. church at the corner of Idaho and
Galena street. The first service will be
held at 1880 Friday evening and Satur-
/ day morning at 800 another service will
be held. Music by a full choir and a
lecture by Rabbi Munnheimer will be
k&eatures OF both services. In this city

Gold shipments OF two three millions

CINCINNATI, o., Sept. s. Joseph B.

Kinleys whole life has been without fault.
His official career has been exceptionally
distinguished by consideration for the peo-
pie and nothing gave him so much happi-
