candidates will be there and MI.
Viehmann, candidate for senator, will
speak on the issues. lie is an ener-
getic speaker and is bound to make an
impression. He Will tell the people
what he has done for New Brunswick
and what he will do for Middlesex
county if given chance. MIR. Velh-
manns personal appearance will win
votes. He has dignified bearing and
will do credit to the people in the
Legislative halls. Down in Cranbury
and the southern end of the county
Mr.. Viehmann made a great impress
sion. He has made votes everywhere
he has gone. He shows by his action
and speech that he means business and
is born leader. He would give
Middlesex an influence in State affairs
such as she has seldom had and the
people who have heard the candidate
are convinced of it.
There are many who claim they will
do much when elected, but they too
often fall short of their aims. Mr..
Viehmann s record as mayor proves
that he is capable of doing things
even against much opposition. New
Brunswick never had such a progress
sive administration. Mr.. Viehmann,
when asking for the peoples support,
said he would give them progressive
campaign and he did. He made
enemies, but that is because he accom-
plished something.

NJ Cannon. Mr.. Cannon is vote
winner of the first order. Just as
soon as his genial face shows itself on
a platform the audience bursts into
applause. Middlesex has not better
candidate on any ticket than Mr..
Cannon. He is fearless and independ-
ent. He has reputation as legis-
lator which extends beyond the
county. This is shown from the fact
that the first paper to mention him as
a probable senatorial candidate was
the Newark Evening News. Mr.
Cannon is decidedly popular and his
outspoken declarations against that
which he did not approve has won
him many supporters.
Other speakers to be heard tonight
are ]. J. FLYNN, the candidate for
coroner, L. M. P. Pearse and William

their chance, it was wise to make the
best of it, for the candidates on the

ton Last Night.
ABLE TO Be ABOUT.

DR.. E. E. Haines, of South Amboy,
Republican candidate for coroner, was
injured last night about 9 O'Clock.
He was driving along the new road to
the bridge on the south side and shis
horse walked into an excavation,
throwing the wagon over and the
doctor out. He landed heavily on his
side and shoulder. At first it was
feared a rib was broken and consider
able alarm was felt Examination
disclosed no serious injury, however,
and he was able to reach home with
out any assistance. This morning he
was out attending to his practice, but
is suffering from scratches and bruises.
He was also badly shaken up.
The accident happened near the
Pennsylvania bridge and is due to the
preparations being made for the new
bridge approach. No lights were out,
it is said, and complete darkness OBJ
scured the hole from view. The horse
escaped injury and fortunately did
not attempt to bolt or the doctor
might have been seriously injured.
The carriage was smashed. DR..
Haines had narrow escape. His
friends were for the time being much
alarmed. He is all here still though,
they say, and will be in proper trim
to take up his duties as next coroner,
when election decides in his favor.

An Exciting Runaway-Sunday's
Fire to he Investigated.

Fire to He Investigated.
Valdosta, Ca, Dec. "a horse be-
longing to N. NJ. Ganas, who lives be-
tween Midtown and Naylor, figured in
the most exciting runaway yesterday
that has been seen in this section in
long time. Mr.. Ganas was Just
starting home. when his horse became
frightened and started to run. The
animal struck thickly wooded grove
and made a circuit of a half a mile
through that, and then struck the rail-
road track, running several hundred
yards down that. When the animal
reached the railroad trestle it contin-
ued its fight across that for more
than an hundred feet, the trestle being
thirty feet above the ground. Neither
horse nor buggy was injured until the
last leap from the trestle was reach
ed. Then it was that the animal made
mis-step and broke two legs, falling
from the trestle, and breaking its neck,
the buggy falling on top of him, and
being demolished.
The fire Sunday morning, in which
the homes of I. T. Brown, w. j.
Durant and Joseph Stump were burn
GU may O6SOutC lil6 SupJGCl VI d Il5lu
investigation by the City Council.
The fire is known to have been of in
cendiary origin, but what the council
wants to know is why it was not ex-
tinguished. The fireman claim that
they had no pressure from the water
works. while the waterworkS people
say that the nozzles in use were so
large that the streams could not be
thrown very far. The Stump residence,
which was the last to burn, was not
regarded in the least danger until 1t
broke out in a blaze. Mr.. Stump did
not have time to save any of his house
hold furniture, and, in fact, his family
had to hurry to make their own escape.
The controversy over the water pres
sure has become so sharp that the
City Council has been urged to look
into the matter. and fix the blame
where it belongs.
The remains of Mrs. William Touch
stone were buried yesterday at Cor
NTH Cemetery. near Lake Park. Her
death occurred Sunday from apoplexy
with which she was stricken Saturday
night. She was the mother of ]. H.
Tombstone and Thomas Reed, of this
city. She was a good woman, and her
death is greatly regretted by all who
knew her.

He was the driver of one of the street
