An Exciting Runaway.

There was some excitement on
Main street Friday afternoon
when a team came up the street
on the run with a man down on
the tongue between the horses,
hanging on for all there was in it.
As the runaways came up in front
OF the Hooper Drug CO. and man
ran ont from the street and grab
bed one of the horses by the bits.
turning the team into the rigs
hitched along the west side of the
court house yard, where they
struck buggy belonging to Mrs.
Maybach, tearing the top off and
smashing up the box considerably.
The shock of the collision with
the buggy threw Rudolph Steuri
over the heads of the team and
landed him in the court house
yard, unhurt save for a few slight
bruises and the shock. He was
up ira minute or two, apparently
as we'll as ever. 1t looked for a
few minutes as though he would
be seriously injured, at least,
and it was with a feeling of relief
that the people on the street saw
him get out of it so easily.

ing numerous creditors in this
city to wish for their good
money. The doctor had recently
purchased a team of horses from

mortgage on the same. When
he, got ready to leave he took this
team and buggy with him. He
cleaned the most of the stuff out
of the rooms he has been occupy

anyone could realize a dollar on.
About the heaviest loser that
we have heard of is W. T. Ken

in the hole to the extent of about
one hundred dollars for board for
the doctor and his wife.
He announced that he was 90

Young Tierney has something of a reputa-
ton in the neighborhood for his ability as q
buck and wing dancer. Young Hamilton is
equally well known as a youth with Wild
West ideas and n bulldozing manner.
Tierney was standing at the corner OF
Fifty-fourth street and Fifth avenue last
night with a group of other little chaps
when Hamilton approached. Hamilton
ordered Tierney to do a lance and when
the latter said he would do nothing Of the
sort Hamilton drew a % calibre revolver.
He again commanded Tierney to dance.
and when he again refused Hamilton fired
several shots at the boys feet. None Of
the bullets struck the Tierney boy, and
Hamilton called out;
Now, will you dance?'
Tierney refused once more and then Ham
ilton shot him in the thigh. Policemen
Mcnamara and Harrison arrived at this
time and nabbed Hamilton. While one cop
took him to the Fourth avenue station and

on his return from his trip around the world
he will be greeted, if his friends have their
way, as one coming TO conquer. The prepa-
rations for his reception have already
begun. although he will not land here until
the first week in August. One OF the plans
for the welcoming of MIR. Bryan home is
the holding of a big meeting in Madison
Square Garden and it is proposed that
Democrats from all parts Of the country
shall join in the reception. William Hoge,
who has taken the lead in making the ar
rangements for the reception, announced
last night that this committee had been
formed to take charge OF the demonstra-
ton: A. H.. Eastman, William Moir, Sena-

It has already been arranged to have
special trains to carry delegates from
Missouri, where the Democrats OF that State
in their county conventions have been pass
ing resolutions indorsing Mr.. Bryan as the
Democratic candidate for the Presidency in
1908, and it is intended to invite other States
to send delegates to assist in working up a
great hurrah.
The men who are making the pla Ms an
nounced Yesterday that Mr.. Bryan had re:
nounced all his old radical opinions and
was a bulwark Of conservatism. 1t was
stated that in a letter which Mr.. Bryan sent
to one of his friends in this city, mailed from
Constantinople, he dwelt upon the Hearst
movement and in doing so remarked:
1T is time to call a halt on socialism, in
the United states. The movement is going
too far"
Importance was given yesterday to
plans Of the Bryan welcomers because OF
was in favor of the reorganization Of Mr..
Bryan and that Richard Croker would re-
turn to this country to attend az bis last
convention the one in 1908.
