AN EXCITING RUNAWAY.


Two young ladies, Miss Mabel
Boyd, daughter of DR.. w. d. Boyd,
and Miss AIlene Beaumont, were
the heroines in an exciting runaway
which took place on College street
Tuesday evening just about dark.
The young ladies had been driving
in West End and had stopped in
front of Hood IL Martins drug store
to be served with cold drinks. Here
they were joined by E. p. Anderson,
Jr., who sat on the edge of the bug
gy bed with bis back to the dash
board. While the young ladies were
enjoying their drinks and talking to
Mr.. Anderson the horse, without
apparent cause, started to run.
When the turn into College street
was made ct the store Of the Ross
Jewelry Conn any Mr.. AnderE o onlwas
thrown out, the wheels of the vehi-
Gle passing over him. With the
lines dangling around the dash board
the horse continued on a rapid run
down the street, passing the home
of DIR. Boyd without the slightest
check of speed The call OF the
young ladies for help attracted a
number of persons TO the street, but
they were utterly powerless to stop
the running horse. The horse left
College street and followed Oldham
avenue to an alley leading TO the
barn of DR.. Boyd. In attempting to
turn into the alley the buggy was
upset and the young ladies thrown
out. Besides "a few scratches the
young ladies escaped unharmed.
When the buggy turned over the
horse stopped and was caught and
held by the bride by Miss Boyd un-
I'll beIp arrived.
The injuries sustained by MIR. An
derson were slight and be was able
10 be at bis office the next morning.

IN HUMAN NATURE.

WITH APOLOGIES FROM KIPLING.
A man there was, and he sued in
vain
The ardent love of a girl to gain
She loved him not, nor would she
try,
SO the man curled up and tried
to die.
The girl came down from her haugh-
ty mood,
And gave the love for which he
sued;
But the man was cured, and passed
her by,
So the girl curled up and tried to
die.
IT'S the way Of a man-'twas ever
thus
He loves the least when she loves
the most;
iTis always the prize beyond him
He'd give his life and soul to get.

NEW YORK, May 29-Seven freight
and coal piers of the Delaware Lacka-
wanna & Western railroad in Jersey City
were destroyed by a fire that started about
O'Clock this afternoon in Pier l., on
which lot of barrels of oil were stored.
The flames spread rapidly. Pier Il was
500 feet long and was soon ablaze its en-
tire length. and the fiTemen who We're
trying to fight the fire from the shore
were able to accomplish but little.
The flames swept across TO Pier II and
beyond, being finally checked at Pier s..
Which is new coal trestle, steel framed
and iron clad. Here the firemen and fire
boats made a desperate stand and stayed
the advance of the fire until the burning
piers crumbled and fell into the water.
Although there was but little wind,
sparks fell all along the water front for
the better part of a mile, endangering
the Lackawanna depot and even the Ham
burg American and Bremen line piers,
where the fremen were kept busy playing
streams of water upon the buildings and
over the ships al their docks
The building Of the Hoboken Coke com
pany, five blocks from the main fire. was
set ablaze by burning brands, but the
firemen responded quickly and the build
ing was only slightly damaged
A number of canal boats and several
tugs We're burned. the loss Of small boats
being variously estimated from 80 to
200
The number of freight cars burned is
not known, but on this class of rolling
stock andSon coal cars the loss will be
heavy.
During the fire the Lackawanna moved
its passenger coaches from its yards out
TO the meadows and one train of dozen
box cars was hauled out of burning pier
and saved.
Piers II and y were full of general mer-
chandise; piers 7, 8, and 10 We're used
for coal and pier was a grain loading
pier.
The loss is estimated at 81. 600 600
1t was learned late tonight that the fire
did not start on pier u, as was at first
supposed, but on the barge Allen c.
Churchill. which lay alongside the pier
Only four persons received injuries that
required them to be taken to the hOspi-
tails and none of these was hurt seri-
ously.

PARKER WILL WIN
Ex-President Cleveland Says
Jurist viii Get Nomination.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, May 30.-The
North American this morning prints
special dispatch from Princeton, N j.
on national Democratic politics in which
eX-President Grover Cleveland is quoted
as follows:
L have believed for some months, and
[ believe now, that Judge Alton B. Par
ker, of New York, will be the nominee of
the national Democratic convention for
the presidential office. This expression of
my opinion is not new. In reiterating it
at this time when there seems to be
lull in the Parker movement, / do not
mean to yield my original Judgment,
which was that either Mr.. Olney or
Judge Gray might have proved the
strongest candidate for the Democracy to
name for the contest with Mr. Roosevelt
Circumstances and the state of pub
lie sentiment We're such, however, that
months ago it became apparent that
Judge Parker was the man upon whom
the conservative element of the party
could and should concentrate. Neither
the circumstances nor the state of public
sentiment have changed, and Judge Par
ker remains now, as he has been for some
months, the logical candidate of his
party.
Il named Judge ParEeis eat that time
because his candidacy had gained such
lead over that of any other man whose
nomination could be deemed accepta Bile
to conservative Democrats that he ap-
peaTed to me as thee most likely man
about whom that element of the Democ-
racy could concentrate in its efforts to
purge the party of that irrationalism with
which it has been afflicted in the last
two presidential campaigns
