Delaware and Hudson company as a
driver boy In their mines and before
commencing his usual duties for the day
took his mule to the shop to have Its
shoes set. When returning from the
shop, his mule became fractious and
ran away. During the night of the
mule, the hoy was dashed up against n.
watering tank by the vicious animal and
then thrown from lis back, his foot
catching in the harness. He was
dragged several yards before b.eaking
away and when picked up was found to
be badly Injured about the face and
otherwise bruised. Dr. Davis was called
und he brought In Doctors Shields and
Manly, who examined into the injuries
of the boy and found that beyond being
painfully bruised and wrenched, noth
ing serious would follow. The Injured
boy is the son of Mrs. John Nicholson,
of Cemetery street, and was her only
support. The family have boon very
unfortunate. A year ugo an older
brother was hurt so severely in the
mines that death resulted The father
wus also killed in the mines.
Kh'iier Fowler, of Fourth street, was
stung on the back of the head hv u
large bee about noon yeserdny. The

quite sick and upon examination It was
found he liuii been stung on a nerve.
The pain from the sting is still very

ground under the house. It is also
rumored that there was a terrible time
ut the said house on the evening of the
third of July, since which time u man
has been missing. The Tribune repre
sentative is Informed that Ihe story
grew out of the fact that certain par
ties got the little fellow to toll this
story for u stick of candy, and he keeps

A MIUNHiHT TALK.
Burglars Were Mot Over-Scmpulou
but They Knew lieu to Quit.
From th Jury.
The hourmidnight. Pluce kitchen
in millionaire's house. The weather
cloudy, probably ruin.
"Tick! Tick! Tick!" This noise came
from the dollar alarm clock which the
hired girl, as usual, hud not taken to
her room for fear of getting alarmed.
"Saw! Saw! Suw!" This noise could
never be laid to a dollur clock; only
robbers would break the silence thusly
.with saws.
"Drop! Drop! Drop!" This noise Is
the lock dropping to the floor. The door
softly opened and two desperate vil
lains peer through the darkness, and
after striking a match and lighting the
gas. one of them softly hisses:
"The Job is did! Now for the gold!"
The other Is evidently of the same
mind, for he takes from beneath his
coat u lurge hug and a murderous-looking
stick, and beckoning to his pal,
they steal softly up Ihe back stairs
to break the millionaire his head or
his pocket book.
As It tukes some time to creep up the
millionaire's back stairs, we will leave
the villains creeping and see what Is
happening In the rich man's spacious
sleeping apartments, nnd w hy , lie
