UPSET ON
WAY TO A FIRE

AS fire engine No. Is with Driver
Harry Riordan, a new man, at the
reins, dashed across Fillmore street at
California at l o'clock yesterday morn
ing responding to an alarm at Suffer
street and Presidio avenue, a bit
snap on one of the wheel horses broke
and the three powerful steeds got from
Riordans control. dragging the heavy
engine after them up California street.
With the breaking of the snap, one
of the horses fell across the car tracks.
but plunged to its feet in an instant.
The frightened horse pulled its COM
panions to one side, and with the driver
powerless to check them they clattered
on to the sidewalk. Then followed a
engine was battered against lamp
posts and overturned. only to land on
it's wheels again.
Driver Riordan only Joined the de-
partment on Monday but with great
pluck he held to the lines, though he
was thrown on the sidewalk and
dragged for distance on his side.
Engineer James Buckley, who had
taken his place on the back end of the
engine, was painfully bruised, but he
clung with his engine to prevent a
possible explosion. AT Scott street,
Riordan managed to guide his horses
into the street again, just as Driver
James Beckey, of the hose wagon
ahead. noticing that something was
wrong, brought his own team to a stop.
BY an unwritten rule of the fire de-
partment, the lighter hose wagon pre-
cedes the engine in running to a fire.
When the hose wagon stopped, the
runaway engine horses instantly re-
gained their senses, and their training
coming into play, drew UP of their own
accord.
After hasty inspection, Riordan
and Buckley saw that their battered
engine was still in working order and
without stopping to attend to their
own injuries finished their run to the
fire. The blaze was insignificant.
Driver Riordan and Engineer Buck
ley were complimented by the chief last
night for their pluck in staying with
the engine and horses.

HILARIOUS PAINTER
RINGS IN FALSE ALARM

William Lawson. a painter, thrust his
fist through the glass front of a fire
alarm box at Third and Mission streets

ity, and with the blood streaming down
his wrist from a severed vein, pulled
a fire alarm and brought apparatus
from the entire downtown district
plunging up in a gallop.
Police Corporal H. p. Braig finally
found Lawson almost fainting from
loss of blood. He readily admitted the
charge of turning in a false alarm.

Fine Prescription to Relieve Rheu-
matism and Kidney Trouble.


The following prescription for the
cure Of rheumatism and kidney and
bladder troubles has no doubt been
filled millions of times, viz: Fluid
Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce;
Compound Kargon, one ounce; Com
pound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces. These simple, harmless in
gradients can be obtained at any
good prescription pharmacy at little
cost and are mixed by shaking well
in bottle.
The dose for adults is a teaspoon
ful after each meal and at bedtime,
drinking full tumblerful OF water
after each dose. 1t is stated that this
prescription is a positive remedy for
kidney trouble and lame back, weak
bladder and urinary difficulties, espe-
cfally of the elderly people. and one
of the best things to be used in rheu-
matte afHictions, relieving the aches
and pains and reducing swelings.
A well-known authority states that
this mixture acts directly upon the.
eliminative tissues of the kidneys;
,cleanses these spongelike organs and
gives them power to slit and strain
the poisonous waste matter and uric,
acid from the blood which Is the.
cause of rheumatism. y
II your9bRcll or sides ache and YOU
suspect kidney trouble 1t would he
wise to try this for a few days.

Suggestion to Christmas Shoppers.

Suggestion to Christmas Shoppers.
rev appeals are more worthy Of
attention at this season of the year
than that for early Christmas shop
ping, says the Martins burg Journal,
and by adopting the suggestion the
people will confer benefit upon
merchants and their employees, and
at the same time serve their own in
.terests.
or course, everyone understands
the embarrassment and difficulties
connected with shopping during the
rush of the Christmas season. In
the excitement of the last few weeks
everyone suffers to greater or less
extent Storekeepers are unable to
fill their orders, clerks cannot prop
erly attend to customers and shop
pers lose both money and temper In
the crush that prevails. 1t is right
that all do their shopping as early as
possible If each would do his or
her share to make the holiday sea-
son as little burdens0me as possible,
there would be a tremendous saving
In vital energy and an equal increase
In the satisfaction with which Christ
mas shopping is done

anyone NOT native to Manhattan.
The Sew York Herald assures as
that at least 2 900 persons gathered
N front OF the opera house In that
town to- witch those who had the
prise alight from their .carriag and
enter the stenple Of music ard de-
colette gowns. The faithful clronl-
cIet of this most momentous event
(fh New Yorf5 goes ON to say:
In tiers six deep the crowd stood
opposite the big opera house and
pushed and jostled TO get a closer and
clearer glimpse OF wealth and beauty.
Most. of those In the throng were
women, and when the tiers grew SO
thick that the street was practically
bIockaded they took possession Of
the stoobs of the dwelling houses and
gazed and commented to their hearts
content. Then as the automobiles
rolled up and elegantly costumed
women alighted from them choruses
of "Ohs!" and ''Ahs!'' were hltrd
from the spectators. Once or twice
an especially elaborate gown appear
ed and even the men-who formed
part of the tiers had to give express
sion to their admiration.
1t is pleasing thus to learn that
Oshkosh and Kankakee have no
monopoly of that disposition that
causes a man to sit on a nail keg
and whittIe while waiting for the
balloon to go up. Provided with a
steak, a loaf of bread or a quart OF
molasses most any Of those Broad
way males might have been set down
In any western" community and fit
right in with the scenery. The
western man, you know, usually
has a family or some dependents to
provide for, and at eventfde he is
generally found hurrying home with
the necessary provender- Hence, to
make the scene wholly realistic, from
a western standpoint, it would be
necessary to place some responsible
tty on the New York yap's shoulders.
1t Is the Manhattan dweller's boast
that he is so D1ase that even a
Salome dance or a new book from
Eleanor Glynn would not check his
tendency to yawn YEARLY. 1t is q
cfnch that they couldn't rufle his
self-complacency. 1t is likewise a
reasonably safe bet that any we'll
dressed lightning rod agent or gold
brick merchant could ramble along
Broadway. and do very satisfactory
business.
