farmer, was probably fatally in
jured in a runaway accident at

day afternoon.
The boys father left his horses
standing near Third and Franklin
streets while he went to serve some
customers. In the wagon was
Swithin Shortlidge, DR., and his
brother, Raymond Shortlidge, aged
years. Theshorses took fright at
something and bolted.
The father rushed to the wagon
and tried to stop the horses but was
thrown down and his leg slightly
injured. The horses ran to Third
and Franklin streets and in making
the turn did SO too quickly and the
wagon was upset. Swithin, Jr.,
was thrown on his head and a large
cash cut in the scalp. He was taken
into Morgan's drug store at the cor
ner and Drs. W. E.. Smith and D. l.
McColley gave him immediate at
tention. They found that the lads
injuries were serious and Officer
Ralston summoned the Phoenix am
bulance which took the lad to the
Delaware Hospital.
50 The boy was little better this
morning. Raymond Shortlidge,
the other boy, was thrown out, but
escaped with a few slight bruises.
The horses broke loose from the
wagon and ran down Franklin
street into a tree and both were
badly injured. They were later
taken in DE- j. r. Mahaffy's ambu-
lance for treatment.
The horses are both skinned up
badly, one horse having one Of its
teeth broken. Mr.. Shortlidge who
stands in t he King street market
above Third street, in conversation
with representative of the REPuB-
LIcAN this morning, stated that his
son Swithin was slightly better and

covery would be rapid. The wagon
was completely demolished. Mr..
is thankful that the ac-
Cident was no worse.

There is feeling among operators
that the strike will be broken and
there is general admission among
wholesale dealersothat the high tide
of figures has been reached.
1t was predicted at the beginning

local supply would be exhausted and
a coal famine, at least as far as the
household sizes of anthracite are
concerned, would come.
There Is no coal famine. From

her insane and recommending that she
be sent to the state asylum. Cora Toll
bert is a woman about IS years old, who
has for the last six months been an in
mate Of the poor farm. The trial yes
terday brought out some very interest
ing developments in this strange, pitt
able case. The principal witnesses were
the young womans father, Superintend-
ent Dillon of the poor farm, Poor Com
missioner Daniels and the girl herself
the most important witness against her
self.
After two of these witnesses had testi-
fed TO her queer actions and statements
that she owned the hospitals, poor farm
and hotels in this city, Miss TOibert was
put on the stand. She denied every state
ment that had been made under OATH
Then Poor Commissioner Daniels testi-
fed. and as he told of his conversation
with her, he caught a cute little smile
on the girls face and there was a twin
kle in her eve. She believed in him.
When she was put on the stand again,
she confirmed everything Mr.. Daniels had
said She then convicted herself. She
reiterated the statements about owning
so much property and then went of on
a new line. She declared that she was
the Messiah and that she. as such was to
judge OF the wicked and unrighteous, for
the day Of judgment had arrived.
This young woman's mind was de-
ranged. it was decided. from brooding
over the loss of property that her rather
suffered in the boom. She seemed 10

cized from this fact
