No Purchase Recorded

There was dealer who tried to sell
q horse to the late Senator Daniel Of
Virginia He exhibited the merits Of
the horse, and said, This horse is a
reproduction Of the horse that General
Washington rode at the battle Of
Trenton. 1t has the pedigree that will
show he descended from that horse
and looks like him in every particu-
lar"
"Yes, so much So" said Senator
Daniel, that | am inclined to believe
It Is the same horse"

WOMAN ATTACKS 1 NEGRO BURGLAR Mrs. Mccormick Sees Negro
 in Husbands Room and s. Tries to Hold Him

The admirable presence of mind of Mrs. G. B. Mccormick, wife of the president of the Pratt Consolidated Coal and Iron company, yesterday morning possibly pre- vented the loss of many valukbles from the home at 917 South Seventeenth street.
 Mrs. Mccormick was awakened about 3 o'clock yesterday morning by the cool air blowing through a window by her bed. She got up to lower the window when she saw a negro man in the room of her husband, just adjoining. The negro was rihing Mir. McCormiclxs trouser pockets. The negro saw her and made for the window. She met him at the window and grappled with him, but his strength was too great and he made his escape, leaving behind him suit case. He se- cured 50 cents in going through MT. Me Coimick's trousers.
 The suit case and it's contents were turned over to Call s5fficer Moser Friday morning, when he went to investigate. Later it developed that the negro had entered the home of l.. N. Pill, where he had filled the suit case with clothes.
 The grip was turned over to MT. Pill later in the day. The negro has not yet been arrested.

BOYLES STREET CAR
 JUMPS THE TRACK
Believed Attempt Was Made to Wreck Car by Rail Being
 LOOsened

An attempt to wreck a Boyles street car was foiled yesterday by the efforts of Motorman Hockey, who was running the car.
 The vehicle was crowded with passen- gers and was coming down steep in cline at High Cliff station when sud- denly it left the track. A rail had evi- dently been purposely loosened The car then slkidded for some distance before it was stopped. It is regarded as nothing short of miracle that the car did not turn over and fall down the embankment on either side of the track. The saliva tion of the passengers is ascribed to the prompt action of the motorman.
 No further developments have been made in the case.
