Afternoon
A Number Of Persons Had
Narrow Escapes

A number of persons had narrow
escape from injury at about $3.50

standing in Blackberry alley near the
Keefer meat market when they be-

struck the Keefer delivery buggy,
badly damaging it, and finally brought

slipped and fell, thus bringing the
runaway to a sudden stop. The ice
wagon was badly broken, one wheel
being completely demolished. No
one was injured, although number
of women narrowly escaped being
struck when the horses turned into
Front street.

NOT MARRIED
SEEKS DIVORCE

Never married and yet suing for a
divorce was the unique position in
which Benjamin d. Smith, of Colum-
bus, and soldier of the Union, stood
when he filed petition for divorce
from Emma Smith in common pleas
court Wednesday. Smith AYERS that
he and the defendant had lived togeth-
er ,as man and wife since August,
1888, and that they had two children.
After having lived together for few
years, Smith says that Emma grew
abusive, ill-tempered and extravagant.
Last March, he says, she ordered him
out of the house, and threatened vio-
lence toward him even If she had to
serve term in the penitentiary for
1t. On that occasion Smith says he
had to lock himself up in his room to
escape bodily harm.
''The plaintiff has many times
pleaded with the defendant to join
him in lawful wedlock," recites the
petition, lin order to protect our chill
dren from shame and disgrace Incl
dent to our present relations, but all
such requests met with REFUSAL con-
tempt and shameful exhibitions of
temper" An absolute divorce is the
concluding prayer of the petition.

WORLDS SUPPLY OF GOLD.

It is possible that the worlds out put of gold. which had been increas- ing steadily year by year since 1899. reached its topmOst point in 1909. and will now decline gradually. says the Chicago Tribune. Last years gold production was $451. .30O.OO0. against s454. 100000 for the preceding year. It may well be that the two causes of increased production since 1893. when the total was only $S5,OOO.O0O. have spent their force. One was the open ing of new fields and the other and more important the discovery of i'm proved reduction processes. But for them the Rand would not have be- come the gold producer it is.

VIRTUES OF DOGS AND CATS.

l even doubt whether a cat ever does get genuinely lost In nine cases out of ten l believe 1t will be found that the animal has just left a good home entirely of its own accord because the new hassock was too hard, or the milkman had been changed, or for some other reason of a paltry, per sonal character For a mess of pot tage it has basely deserted the, family to which it belonged. and betrayed the trust and confidence reposed in it. The hypocrite will spend several days in surveying the interiors of eligible homes from the vantage point of the window sill. and when it has found one to it's taste, it will pro- ceed to work upon the compassion of the owners until it gets itself adopted.
 In the odd case out of the ten. the creature is probably doing a deliberate sham on the off chance of getting snapped up by somebody with a more comfortable fireside for it to warm its wicked whiskers at.
 have been led to this attack upon cats by the contrast that occurred to me of the calculated humbug of the lost" cat and the real pathos of the lost dog. Where does there exist the dishonest dog? Who can impugn a dogs fidelity or the large heartedness of his love Seeing by how much these virtues in the dog exceed the same virtues in ourselves. we should be very humble in his presence. Malice stands rebuked at a wag of his cor dial tail; the faith that shines in his eyes puts our distrust to shame. When this paragon among animals is lost he runs the streets a stricken bundle of tragic emotions. Grief stares from his eyes and distraction is expressed by every movement of his body How eloquent of sorrow is the little moan that frequently escapes him-there Is nothing in human language to equal Its appeaI-LOndon Leader.
