II was Jay Gould who said that
when he was in Democratic district
he was Democrat, when in a Repub-
lican district he was Republican and
when in a doubtful district he was
doubtful. Jays rule is good enough

gent district he insurges; when he is
a standpat district he standspat, and
when he is in doubtful district he is
doubtful. But Gould declared that he
was first, last and all the time for the

which he isn't-that he is first, last

years old, had a narrow. escape from
serious injury or sudden death at the
railroad crossing on West street on
Saturday. He drives a light express
wagon with single horse and in
crossing the tracks the horse stopped
before the wagon had cleared the
track. Mr.. Fox noted a freight car
backing down on him and had barely
time TO jump out of his wagon when
it was struck and one hind wheel
smashed. He was not injured but
thinks the call a much closer one than
he cares to have repeated.

settled out of court. BY the VIII of Mrs.
Overpeck. the bulk Of her property was
given to George Wolf, young man
who had been brought up by Mrs. Ov-

ject. An Injunction suit has been
brought against the company, to en-
join the company from maintaining the
yards at their present location and the
