Circus Trick Stops Runaway,

Policeman Thomas J. O'Grady, on
the back Of Hollister, one of the finest
horses in the police department, rode
to the side of a terrified horse running
at breakneck speed through crowded
Fourth avenue the other day and
sprang from his mount to the neck
of the runaway. Dragged by the an
imal. he held on until it stopped The
policemans uniform was torn and
ruined, and he suffered a severe
wrench of the back, which compelled
him to lay off for the day.
O'Grady's act practically duplicated
one of year ago, when he sprang
from the back of HOLSTER to the neck
Of a runaway and by squeezing the
horses nostrils, guided It into an area
way. There the horse fell upon him
and O'Grady was severely hurt. For
that act he received a medal for BRAY
cry at the last police parade.-New

home an unknown man without WaTn-

the real horror of the situation lay In
the fact that there was just enough

You know how mortified you feel
when there are just so many pieces
of whatever the platter contains, and
you have to dole them all out and
there is absolutely nothing left? Well.
my invention does away with that.

around it or at the side of it. and
there you are! Nobody notices it es-
pecially. 1t has the general effect Of
the genuine, and it lends the neces-
sary dignity and amplitude to the
course.
Don't ask me what would happen
If any one insisted upon second help

thoughtful helpmeet had brought upon

quaintances unbelievable quantities Of
soap, starch, and perfumery that they
didn't need and didn't want. He ate
from dishes that had been procured
by the assiduous collection of reams
of vari-colored trading-stamps. The
abortive urn in which was served the
morning ration of coffee represented
weeks of nauseating effort to dispose
of the ten pounds of chiccory and
charred peanuts with which it had
been presented. mastering these for

tell me how it works"
II just knew you'd be perfectly hor-

tiful gilt boudoir clock-something
I've wanted for ages and age. You
see, there is little pasteboard letter
in every box, and when you get
enough to spell the cereal peoples
name they give you the clock as a
present. It's grand: Mrs. James has
one, and it didn't cost her a penny. 1
wish you could see it,
Didn't cost her a penny, Ell? No,
I can't see it," rejoined the Man. with
sinister double entendre. How much
do you pay for this stuff? Fifteen
cents a box? And we've been using
three packages a. week for say twenty
weeks-that's nine dollars. Seems to
me you must have bought enough let
tiers to get two or three clocks. The
fellows who got up this scheme must
have name long enough to reach all
the way around the box and lap over

his watch and shedding his giddy
house-coat hurriedly, preparatory to

fodder in silence morning after morn

quantity in his bowl on the plea Of al

teresting case Of desertion has
come to the attention of the
police Of the city. The deserted
is a baby girl two or three weeks
old and the victim Of the evident
plot at desertion is an old negro
woman named Lille Jackson.
According to the woman's state
ment q tall, well-dressed, hand
some man with a black mustache,
appeared atlthe door Of her home
on Brick street yesterday one
week ago bearing in his arms an
infant. 1t was just dusk and
the man, having every appear
ance Of q high gentleman, told
the old negro that he and his
wife had been suddenly called
away for . few days and giving
other plausible excuses requested
that the woman keep the child
until their return. The woman
was easily duped. She believed
the man sincere, and agreed TO
take good care Of the little one.
The man gave the woman s. in
money. . quantity Of clothing
for the babe and and also some
prepared baby food. He left and
since that time has never been
heard from.

Burned with a House.

Weldon, N. c. March %. Fire
Saturday night completely des.
troyed the handsome country
dwelling, known as the White.
head place, near Weldon, and
owned by Mr.. W. B. Drewry.
The occupants Of the house, Mr..
and Mrs. Will Carroll, and Their
four-weeks-old baby, barely es.
capped with their lives and .
colored boy, who slept in the
barn was burned to death.
When Mr.. Carroll awoke the
bed was on fire and his wife's
hair was burning. They had moi
q moment to loose. Clasping the
sleeping infant to her breast,
Mrs. Carroll fed from the room
in her night robes, followed By
her husband. The night was
cold and for several hours they
were exposed to the night winds
before help could arrive.
Mrs. Carroll has been prostrat.
ed since the fire. They lost
everything they possessed OF
earth, not even having time Il
put on their shoes.
How the fire originated is q
mystery, as the house was ready
to tumble In on the head of Mr.,
and Mrs. Carroll when they q
woke.
