STOPS A RUNAWAY.
James j. Jeffries Uses His Strength to
Good Purpose in Central Park,
New York.

New York, Jan. 3O.-Champion
heavyweight James J. Jeffries has dis
tinguished himself by stopping a run
away team in Central park, and saved
from probably serious injury the man
and his wife who were being carried
rapidly toward a narrow bridge span
ming a gorge through the drive. A bit
had broken between the jaws Of a spir-
tied horse attached, with its mate, to
the sleigh.
The animals had run some distance,
and were approaching the bridge at a.
rapidly increasing speed, when Jeffries,
approaching in a cab, heard the wom-
ans screams. Looking ahead, he saw
the runaWays, n sprang to the
ground. He seized the neal horse by
the head and was dragged along some
distance, but managed with his free
hand to grip the horses nostrils, chok-
ing it quickly into submission.
The woman in the sleigh was slightly
hurt, but Jeffries was uninjured.

DECISION EXPECTED SOON
Supreme Court Is Very Busy With the
Northern Securities Case.

Supreme Court Is Very Busy With the
Northern Securities Case.
Washington, Jan. S0.-Two facts
stand out in the supreme court in
which considerable speculation is in-l
dulged in as to When the Northern Sc
curities case will be handed down.
These two facts are: First, that no de-,
cisions were announced; second, that
the court would take a recess for three
Weeks from next Monday, February !.
From the first of these facts the in
ference is drawn that the members of
the court are SO busily engaged in con-,
sidering the Northern Securities case.
that they had not time to devote to any
of the other cases which ave BEEN
heard and are now awaiting decision
by the court. From the second fact.
taking into consideration the first, it,
was reasoned that the court would not
delay for three weeks a decision in a,
case which it was important to the
business interests of the country Shoul>
be determined speedily.
May Be Decided During Recess.
While these deductions are purely
speculative, still there are man famil-
lar with the practice Of the court who
| consider that they rise above mere con-
lecture. On the Otner mana, tnere are
many who believe that the court, dur
ing the recess of three weeks, will have
more time TO give to the consideration
of the Northern Securities case than
they have had or would have with the
court holding daily sittings, n that
during the recess they will arrive by
conference at the decision to be rem
dered and direct, as is usual, one Of
their members to prepare the decision
in accordance with the opinion Of the
majority of the court.
There seems little doubt the court will
divide, and that majority and minority
decisions will be rendered.
Justice Brown to Participate.
Justice Brown, who has been absent
from the bench for a month or more.
and who did not hea the arguments in
this case, will nevertheless take part in
the decision under an agreement made
in open court, by which counsel on both
sides acquiesced in his participation in
the case. This he can very readily do
by taking the briefs On both sides and
arriving at his own conclusion there
from. He will have missed only the
oral arguments, which, as a matter OF
fact, are only Celebrations of points
made in the printed filed briefs.

In Maiden, Mass, the public library

the will of the late Mrs. Mary Con-

expended in the purchase of works of
art.
The Milwaukee, Wis, public library
received a Christmas gift of fine
stained glass window, costing 500, for
the children's room. The window
represents the kindly story teller,
Hans Christian Andersen, with the
children. The money for this gift
was raised by public subscription.
In the Overwhelming destruction Of
important buildings last Sunday in
Baltimore it is a satisfaction to note
that the Enoch Pratt free library of
that city has apparently escaped un-
harmed Had it been destroyed its
loss would have been felt severely.
Every public library that is we'll sus-
tanned grows not only by the pur-
chases made for it, but by the pre-
sentation of books. manuscripts and
other works of great rarity. which in
time become of priceless value and
whose loss cannot be remedied.
1t is over score of years since the
Enoch Pratt free library was founded
1t now has seven branches and three
delivery stations, and through these
and the main library is doing a great
educational work. This library has
but a nominal income from taxation,

1t is gratifying to man who

him thoroughly.
This is just what Electro
