FIGHTING MApMAN IN STORM.
Physician Grapples with Maniac and
Frensied Horse In Tempest.

Frenxied Horse In Tempest.
SCRANTON, Pa, Aug. 17.-Through q
violent rainstorm, driving along lone
mountain road with raving maniac
for his companion, was the experience
Of DIR. William Lynch. He was called
by telephone to attend man in the
Consumptive hospital, and, not think.
ing the case serious, went alone in his
buggy. He found the subject dement,
ed, but seemingly harmless.
DR.. Lynch placed the man in his
buggy and started for home About
midway a heavy storm Of lightning.
thunder and rain broke. Instantly his
patient became violently terror strick-
en- by the wildness of the storm and
was about TO jump from the buggy
when the doctor grappled with him.
DIR. Lynch is a powerful man, but he
had the time Of his life controlling his
frenzied companion and preventing his
horse from running away. Meanwhile
rain fell as from cloudburst and
lightning played about them. More
than once the doctor was nearly over
powered and in danger of the maniac
carrying out repeated threats to fling
him over the steep embankment along
which the road ran.
Another element of danger was pre-
sented when the horse was frightened
by the shouting of the insane man and
the fury of the storm and tried TO run
away.

SHE OWNED FATAL MACHINE.
Automobile had been Given to Miss Willing
Tyler Brother.

Miss Evelyn p willing who was
killed in the automobile accident was
the owner of the fatal 90 horse power
Mercenes machine. Up to a short time
ago Mark S Willing her brother was
the owner. His sister admired the ma
chine and he gave 1t TO her. Within
Two weeks Miss Willing and her bro
ther were in Chicago making O div
ision ofthe personal effects left by their
parents. Each was to use the share
allotted for house keeping purposes,
for Mr. Willing is to be married Nov.
IL.
Mark Willing gave his sister the
first choice, and it is known to friends
that Miss Willing passed by in her
selection those things which from years
of association she knew the brother
priced. 1t did not take him long to
discover, the trend of her selections,
aud he insisted that the choice should
be alternate. After that it became a.
C ,se of brother and sister choosing
with an eye single to that which each
believed would most closely meet the
wishes of the other.

Several persons were given hearing by
the judiciary committee OF the house. but
there was considerable interest developed
In the consideration OF bill for en- act In
amendment OF chapter a. OF the General
Laws. entitled "of Assessing and Collect
ing Poll-taxes." and the acts In amend
ment thereof or In addition thereto. The
bill provides that the demand. provided

eral Laws entitled "Of Assessing and
Collecting Poll-taxes." and any acts in
amendment thereof or in addition thereto.

possession OF some person living there"
There we're comments by Mr.. Fitz-
s5rad. Mr.. woodma Judge Harris
ami others, and Albert A. Baker. assist
ant city solicitor OF Providence, was
heard in favor OF the measure. Incl
centaily Mr.. Baker admitted that tho
practice OF both parties had been 20 hond
up the personal property lists in Provi-
cepce with reg'ssry voters when thero
was fight on. Why, In my own ward
QUO year the Democrats spent several
hundred dollars 10 pay poll taxes OF men
whose names we're put on, without say
ing what the Republicans spent.
The people themselves lick when they
ind their names on. as they do not want
10 pay the 50 or 81. as IL may be-"
They do not do things that way now.
remarked Mr.. Baker, as the assessors
have found that II Is a bad plan TO mix
politics with assessing taxes.
This bill was favored by the city treas
urer who had found much difficulty IN
collecting poll taxes GOV. he said
Mr.. Fitzgerald mentioned the fact that
in addition 10 putting names on the list
that did not belong there they would
refuse 10 put on names II the applicants
were OF the opposite political faith and
they suspected IL.
Both Judge Harris and Mr.. Baker de-
MED that anything OF that sort was the
practice now.

NAMED on the table.

OF their salaries He said the amendment
was aimed especially a the offices OF tho
dstric attorney for the southern dis

report OF the attorney general in support
OF a statement that in four years fees
amount 10 $4,000 had been paid TO the
district attorney for the district in ad-
dtion 10 his salary.
Mr. Platt Comm suggested that the
duties attaching 10 the office Of district
attorney for the southern district Of

airy OF $4,000 a year was not adequate.

suggested a fixed salary OF $40 600 a year
Mr. Depew said that the New York
district attorney had been overwhelmed
by the duties Of his office.
