rifle speed behind two maddened,
driverless horses, Mrs. Jesse F. Nc
Donald. wife of Governor Mcdonald,
and Mrs. S. NJ. Perry. were seriously
injured in n runaway accident at West
Fourteenth and Logan avenues, while
on their way to the Fairbanks recep-
tion at Wolhurst at 8 O'Clock yester-
day afternoon.
Both of the occupants of the open
carriage were pinned underneath the
overturned vehicle and Mrs. Mcdonald
was thrown with great force against
the curbing. For three hours after the
accident she was in an unconscious
condition, suffering from severe con
cussons of the brain. Mrs. Perry es
capped with painful bruises, many
scratches and severe nervous shock.
The horses became frightened at a
speeding automobile at Twelfth and
Logan avenues. In his endeavors 10
control the maddened animals, the
driver was thrown from his box to
the sidewalk. where the struggling
horses had swerved.
Clinging to the seat in terror, Mrs.
Mcdonald ana Mrs. Perry expected
every instant to be thrown out of the
carriage. AT East Fourteenth avenue
heavy wagon blocked the crossing,
the running horses swerved TO the
sidewalk to avoid the impending col
lision. The light carriage struck vio'
lently against some trees near the
curbing, overturned and pinned the
frightened occupants beneath.
Mrs. Mcdonald struck on her head.

slant attendance on Mrs. Mcdonald

nounceI that the crisis was past and
that she was in fair way for recovery.

A KENTUCKY WOMAN
How She Gained Fifteen Pounds In
Weight and Became Well by Taking
Or, WllljamR' Pink Pills

Women at forty, or thereabopts, have
their future i'll their own hands. There
will be change for the better or worse,
for the better il the system is purified by
such n tonic as DIR. Williams Pink Pills.
Mrs. d. G. Wedding. of Hartford. KY,
writes rs follows concerning the diff
culties which afflicted her:
81 was seriously i'll and was confined
to my bed for six or eight months in nll,
during two years. had chills, fever,
rheumatism. My stomach seemed al
ways too full, my kidneys did not act
freely, my liver was inactive, my heart
beat was very weak and had dizziness
or swimming i'll my head and nervous
troubles.
"Iwas under the treatment of several
different physicians but they all failed
to do me any. good. After suffering for
two years l learned from an Arkansas
friend about the merits Of Dr. Williams
Pink Pills and 1 decided that 1 would
try them. The very first box l took
made me feel better and when 1 had
taken four boxes more1 wasentirely well,
weighed fifteen pounds more than when
began, resumed my household duties,
and have since continued i'll the best of
health. / have recommended DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills to many people on nc
count of what they did for me, and feel
that cannot prnise them too strongly"
DIR. Williams Pink Pills restored Mrs.
Wedding to health because they actually
make new blood and when the blood is
in full vigor every function of the body
is restored, because the blood carries to
every organ, every muscle, every nerve,
the necessary ynourishment. Any woman
who is interested in the cure of Mrs. We'd
ding will want our book, "Plain Talks to
Women" which is free on request.

Laundry work at home would b,

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory If the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, 1t is usually neces-
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality of the goods. This trouble
can be entirely overcome by using De-
fiance Starch. as 1t can be applied
much more thinly because of its great
er strength than other makes.

P,uuerism in British Isles.

Indoor pauperism is said in the Brit
ish official record, to have grown rap
idly in England and Wales since 1900.
During the last eleven years the cost
of indoor relief has increased sc per
cent, while the increase in the num-
Der of paupers has been only 36 per
cent. The annual cost of maintenance
per head increased from about S65 in
1895 to about 800 in 1895. There had
also been a large increase in the av-
erage cost of maintenance Of work

THE ANTELOPE.

His Two Willie Patches That Act ~
u Signal Code.
Visitors to the circus and menagerit
have noticed the two white patches OF
antelopes. Those spots are a sigma
which can be read by the animals
which have noses to smell. Even AMI
mails whose sense Of smell has been
lost can read the message which the
antelope gives to warn his friends OF
danger.
The hairs on these patches are long
white and ordinarily point downward
Among the roots Of the hair is gland
which secretes n strong musk. Under
meath the skin at this point is a broad
sheet of muscles which have the power
to raise these hairs 80 that they stand
out ut all angles like the petals Of
huge white chrysanthemum. When an
antelope sees danger this muscle acts
and the patch flashes out like snow. In
the middle Of each is dark brown
spot, the musk gland, which frees o
great quantity of the musk which can
be detected down the wind for long
distance by another antelope. Even
man can distinguish this danger sigma
for some yards.
The antelope has five different sets
of glands, each giving forth different
kind of musk for use in its daily life as
a means Of getting or giving intelli
gence. The two in the middle Of each
rump patch has been explained, but
the purposes Of the others have not YET
been fully accounted for.

As Il Is Done In New York.

The papers now contain columns re-
garding the contest for speaker in the
New York assembly, and it is said that
il will be a fight to the death. The
names which are principally concerned
in the fight are those of Ex-Governor
Odell and Governor Higgins, with more
or less speculation as to RoOsevelt's part
in it. The names of the two candidates
for the speakership also figure in the
news, of course, but only incidentally,
while if the members of the assembly
have anything to do with it the fact is
not made apparent in the dispatches.
The scrimmage emphasizes the fac,
that politics in general in New York
state, in all parties, is on the basis OF the
"boss." The people assemble in eau.
cuses and conventions and at elections
and cast their ballots, but every political
move, whatever it may be, is planned
and managed by its promoters, not with
regard to the people, but with reference
to the bosses. That is pretty broad
statement, but it can be easily verified
not alone by reading the newspapers,
but by a very little personal observation
OF politics in that state.
We hear more or less talk about
''rings" and "bosses" and political
''trusts" in Maine, but we don't begin
to comprehend the first principles OF
New York politics. Here in Maine the
people figure quite largely in the game,
and it is to be hoped that they will hold
on to the power which they possess, and
never surrender any part Of it.
