Four Horse Runaway.

Ward Potts and Earl Axes had an ex-
perience with a four horse runaway
Tuesday afternoon, which fortunately
terminated without serious results, but
they do not care to repeat the exper-
fence. They were going with a big
wagon with three sets of side boards
and four horses down towards Davis
City to get load Of corn and when
near the farm Of James Miller, four
miles southwest of Leon, one of the rear
horses kicked over the tongue and this
frightened the other horses and they
whirled round and became tangled up,
overturning the wagon and throwing
Ward and Earl out. Earl was knocked
senseless, and for time it was feared
he was badly hurt but as soon as he re-
covered his wind he was all right and
able to attend the circus the next day.
The lead team was Charley Axes fine
bay driving team, and when the horses
started to run the double tree came
loose and caught on wire fence and
stopped and held them before they had
gone but short distance The other
team ran clear to Little River, but were
stopped there without being injured.
In these dull days in local affairs a
country editor cannot help wishing
that he had field to work in like Chi

newspaper maker faces hard PROPOSE
ton. He is expected to fill his columns
week after week with bits of crisp news
items whether the people of the COM
munity make any effort to stir up such
things or not. In Chicago it is differ
emit. Something is doing all the time.
A reporter would be required to expend
little effort in filing his news columns
there whore reports say they have
birth every eight minutes, death
every fifteen minutes, a murder every
seventy hours, suicide every eighteen
hours, serious accident every four
minutes, fatal accident every five
hours, a case of assault and battery
every twenty-si1 minutes, a burglary

wFERRYBOATS USELESS.
The Fourth One Has Arrived and Is
Tied Up at Dock.

The fourth municipal ferryboat, the
Bronx, arrived here yesterday from
Baltimore and tied up at her pier,
where she will remain, a useless piece
of machinery, until the slips at South
Ferry and st. George, Staten Island,
are completed.
Persons living on Staten Island are
indignant over the delay in compile
ting the slips. All sorts of promises
have been made regarding the early
date on which the boats would be put
in service, and still those in charge
of the work of building the piers are
Drocrastinating.
The Sinking Fund Commission n
nounced that the new boats would be
running by June | this year. From
time to time, as there were new de-
lays, the date was set ahead, and from
the present condition of the slips it is
a safe guess to set the date of opening
for December 81.

TAMMANY CROSSES BAY
Wants to Win in Richmond This

Staten Island has been taken more

The first object of this alliance is
the election of q democratic president
of Richmond borough. in place Of
George Cromwell. the only republican
among the borough presidents. Since
the Staten Island ferry has been taken
over by the city as a municipal ehter-
prise, Tammany wants control of the
patronage at both ends of the line.

Tammany has agreed not to change SO
that the Mailer regime may be per-
