DIR. MITCHELL ANALYZES HERO
ISM


ISM
I found that / had in ten months l.
1853 records. l began to deal with these
by striking out all cases where moth
ers ran risks to save a child. Here we
have to do with instincts and eXtrava-
giant motives which must always have
existed. Many cases were repeated
over and over, with such changes as at
times were bewidering. The quality of
some of the reports made me reject
them, for plainly it was out of the
question to attempt verification.
Having thus, and perhaps even too
critically, sifted my reports, I felt sure
that, while might have rejected many
true cases, there was reasonable securi-
ty of the reality of what remained.
My exclusions left me with record
of seven hundred and seventeen exam
pies of men, women or children who
took grave risks to save persons in
peril.
Of these two hundred and fifty-eight
were attempts to save the drowning.
One hundred and ninety-four were
efforts to rescue from fire. Among
these quite one-third were by single
firemen acting alone; the rest were by
men. women or children, and involved
various kinds of danger from fire, such
as carrying out children or adults from
houses on fire, taking great risks to
alarm persons asleep in such places
running elevators amid terrible fire
risks, etc.
Sixty-one were acts of self-devoted
courage on the part of railway engi-
neers, brakenaen, switch tenders or 9TH
ers employed on railways. Among
these were many amazing examples of
high conduct amid appalling risks, with
lamentable list of fatal efforts to
drag from railway track persons in
grave danger. I am assured on good
authority that large number of cases
of heroic behavior by railway employees
are never reported, and that this list is
much too small. More remarkable is
the number of persons who, not being
in this employ, made like efforts to
save the lives of children, women or
drunken men from the swift approach
of trains. Forty-eight such instances
were reported.
MY miscellaneous list numbers one
hundred and fifty-six. 1t is largely
made up of efforts to stop runaway
horses, Of which about one-third were
by policemen. 1t also includes a curl
Gus variety of rescues. everal were
from noxious gases in wells; twelve
from bulls: others were contests with
mad or ferocious dogs; there were sew
en- attempts to save from awful death
by live electric wire" and, finally,
two cases were of persons who sucked
snake bites-probably harmless eff
fort but popularity regarded as endan-
gering the OPERATOR. Weir Mitchell in

Because He Would Not Give Him His
Gun Without His Paying.
Luke Wheelock was arrested yester-
day afternoon by Detective Colwell and
put under a $500 bond as surety of the
peace.
He is seventy-four years old and he
had armed himself with pistols and a
shotgun and was threatening to take
Judge BOWS life when arrested. About
year ago the judge, to help Vince
lock out of some legal trouble, advanc-
ed him some money and received a
gun as security. This money has not
been paid and Wheelock demanded
that the gun be returned to him. This
the judge refused, which so angered
the old man that he threatened the
judges life.

LIVELY RUNAWAY.
Team of Bronchos Makes Pedestrians
Anxious on Main Street.

From Tuesdays Daily.i
Shortly after o'clock this morning
the team of wiry little bronchos which
is used on the delivery wagon for the
local delivery of the Excelsior Springs
Mineral Water Co. had one of its reg
ular runaways on East Main street.
The team was standing quietly in front
of the Ballingall hotel when the idea
struck them and they wheeled and
started east Running amuck of a
wagon rather discouraged them, how
ever. and they turned toward nearby
saloon, probably to get "bracer."
Upon reaching the curb stone they
again turned. evidently finding that
they were headed into the wrong place.
as there are several in that block, and
the 1unaways, now thoroughly fright
ened, raced down Main street to the
Eaton block, where a hole in the street
and high curb stone proved their
undoing. One horse fell hard, and
lookers-on. who, it is needless to say,
were viewing the occurrence from safe
places thought the little horse had
been injured. but after he had been ex-
tricated from the tangle of straps and
the wagon had been righted, the wiry
little animal regained his feet and is
apparently as well as ever. No one
was injured although not few had
narrow escapes. The wagon was dam
aged considerably.
