playfully pointed it at the other

EXCITING RUNAWAY.
Phil Redd'S Horse Creates A
Panic on Ninth Street.

A horse hitched to Mr.. P. K.

morning and considerable excite
ment was created on Ninth street.
The horse started suddenly near the
|. c. depot, throwing Mr.. Redd out,
and headed towards the l.. N. depot
ran furiously up the crowded street.
A colOred man played the part of
messenger Of impending danger and
ran ahead Of the animal shouting a
warning. Mr.. j. Z. Buckner, VINO
was crossing Ninth street, mad the
closest call, escaping by an inch or
two. After de nolishing a bicycle
hastily abandoned, the runaway
collided with Roy Kenner's delivery
wagon in front of his store, knock
Ing it to pieces and frightening the
blind horse so that he ran into
Sable's dry goods store on the cor
ner, breaking a door and a show
case. Max Sable was slightly hurt
by broken glass. The horse contiL-
ued to run, dragging part of the
vehicle, until he was stopped at
Liberty street. The wonder is that

New Plan for the Lincoln Memorial.

Understanding that it is the plan of
the park commissioners to include in the
park system of Washington the prominent
forts surrounding the city. and to have
these eminences connected by a fort
drive I would offer as a suggestion for
the proposed Lincoln memorial that the
fort drive" be made Line DIN highway"
or Lincoln drive" and that a magnificent
road. encircling Washington at the high
est elevation. be constructed as a fitting
memorial OF the man we honor. All these
fortfications were built In Iincolns time,
many. If not all. he visited; at one, Fort
Stevens, he saw actual warfare in the
defense of Washington. AS Lincoln
unified the country, bringing north and
south together. SO harmony characterizes
this plan for the Identification Of the Dis
trict The plans so far offered, with the
exception Of the Gettysburg drive, would
center the memorial at one point; the
plan here presented is wider in scope and
more inclusive. We hear too much Of the
northwest" section, the eastsiders," etc.
and, just as Linceln brought together
north and south, SO the Lincoln high
way with it's encircling arms. would
dominate and harmonic the whole. FORM
Ing a permanent basis for unity and
beauty in future improvements for Wash
ington and the District of Columbia.
