The theory most firmly cred

CINE RAN
AWAY ON S. /:
Perth AmbOy Commuters Left
Behind While on Way TO
New York This Morning.

a Travellers over the railroad line
from Tottenville to st. George We're
treated this morning to a new tunni-
osity of Staten Island rapid transit.
J~erseyites who had made tho voyage
from Perth Amboy and the far end is
landers themselves were buried IN
this morning papers or paper backed
novels, according to sex when there
was a ''snip'' and a ''snap'' and a
''crack," and the bell rope went
gyrating through the cars as if it had
been shot lariat style from the hand
of a cowpuncher.
The astonished passengers looked in
every direction but the right n for
an explanation. and it was a minute
at least before they turned their eyes
ahead and saw the engine frisking
away, free and Independent. Then
there was a laugh, not a ripping
laugh, but a solid affair, reaching
from the first car to the last, and
with a "tired feeling'' note in it.
"Anything is likely to happen on
Staten Island, " followed in a general
chorus
Then the conductor and the brake
boys jumped from the train and yelled
after the fleeing engine.
Then windows YER raised and heads
went out, and there was a general
halooing, which brought the village
shoemaker strolling out Of his shop
with his hands under his leather
apron. Three barefooted little girls
joined him, then two dogs came along,
and a wild-eyed horse hung his head
over a neighboting fence to have a
look at the disconnected commuters.
Meanwhile the fireman on the en-
CINE No. l awoke and tipped off the
engineer, who exclaimed, ''By gosh,
Bill, | thought there was something
strange, for she was .runnin' like a
two-year-old.
In a moment No l was reversed
and she put back after the lost train,
Got a string" said a commuter to
his neighbor.
How would a piece of thread
|do?" asked another.
"Give 'em your shoe strings" said
another to a youth with a new pair
of tan low cuts"
Here's a hair ribbon" whispered
a demure girl from Perth Amboy.
The conductor and the engineer
and the fireman blushed as this fire
went one, but the limit was reached
when the shoemaker suggested a
waX-end.
All this happened at Dongan Hills
station, in front of the Richmond
County Fair Grounds, but it was only
1870 o'clock, and the commuters were
unable to see more than the flags
fluttering from the grand stand.
The tooth or coupling iron gave.
way when the engine started to pull
the train out of the station, and 1t
was well on it's way to Grassmere
before the driver realized that he
had left the cars behind.
After twenty minutes tinkering
the train proceeded, but the passen-
gers were forty minutes behind time
when the city was reached.

SOx.

Saturday, Oct. l4th, Manager Clark
will open the theatrical season with the
Ethel Tucker Stock Co., presenting
two plays Carmen" for the afternoon
and Across the Desert" at night.
The FL Paso Times says:
The Ethel Tucker Stock company en-
tertaIned another large audience at
Myar opera house last evening. The
company is assuredly one Of the best
that ever came this way in repertoire.
Miss Tucker and Brandon are very
clever and in the production of last eve
ming the former had occasion to demon
strate her ability as an emotional ac-
tress. The illustrated and other songs
between the acts were very enjoyable
and on the whole the audience was
highly entertained, since the supporting
company came up to all requirements
and the two principals were far above
the ordinary in their work. Miss Tucker
is a clever actress in any part which
she takes and is capable of some very
strong dramatic work.

vice to urge people at this season of
the year to lay in a supply of Chamber

sure to be needed before the winter is
over, and much more prompt and salts
factory results are obtained when taken
as soon as a cold is contracted and be
fore it has become settled in the sys.
tenn, which can only be done by keeping
the remedy at hand. This remedy is so
widely known and so altogether good
that no one should hesitate about buy
ng It in preferenc to any other. 1t is
for sale by all druggists.
