AN EXCITING RUNAWAY.
Munn & Avery's Team Dashes Up
Belmont Street.
A team of horses hitched to rt hpavy
wagon was left standing In front ot
Munn & Avery's creamery on Churnh
Btrcet yesterday afternoon. The team
berame scared In some unknown man
ner nntl made a sudden lurch forward,
breaking the king bolt.
They made a dash tip Church street
with the two front wheels nttnehed
and narrowly missed several pedpstrl
ans who happened across the strpet at
tho time. The tenm continued Its
course up Belmont until It came to the
corner of Cherry avenue where one of
the animals tried to turn down. Tho
other did not turn nnd as a conse
quence both fell to the pavement. A
small boy grabbed tho check of one
of the horses and held them till help
arrived. The animals were slightly
scratched but escaped any other In
Jury. The wagon was not damaged to
any extent. Tho speed which the team
attained was tremendous, and It Is In
deed fortunate that no one was hurt.
THE HORSE FELL.
The American House Bus Almost
Han Over Its Horse.
Michael Stone, the driver for the
American House was driving to meet
the five o'clock train yesterday after
noon when a curious and somewhat
laughable accident occurred. The an
imal was lubberlng along at its own
gait down Sixth avenue just turning
Into River street when it stumbled nnd
fell to the ground. The Impetus which
the bus had gained on coming down
Sixth avenue hfll drove It almost over
tho fallen horse. The unlm.il remained
on the earth for a few minutes after
which with some help it regained Its
feet and Jogged over to the station.
It did not receive any Injury what
ever. LETTER PROM THE SOUTH.
Frank Newrombo, who Is a volunteer
in the Sixty-ninth regiment, New York
volunteers, wroto home nn Interesting
letter In which he sent some very In
teresting souvenirs. He has been sta
tioned at l-'ernandla, Florida, for some
time past but was lately removed to
Huntsville, Alabama, where he is now
in camp. When his company left
Florida he was fortunate enough to be
on one of the rear sections of the train
and so escaped the wreck which re
sulted in several deaths. The wreck
happened among tho cotton Melds and
Mr. Newcombs took advantage of the
delay necessarily occasioned and he
succeeded in securing several bales of
cotton from the immediate vicinity of
the wreck. He sent them homo to his
friends ast relics. Ho describes tho
accident In a graphic manner and inci
dentally says he likes the country he
is In at present. His letter throughout
Is a most Interesting one nnd Is the
topic of much conversation.

A SIGNAL BELL.
The Erie company have placed a new
signal bell at the Simpson crossing. The
bell will begin to ring as soon as the
train gets a certain distance from the
crossing. This should have been placed

dangerous crossing, with no safeguard
whatever.
LOCAL AND PERSONAL.
Chief of Police McAndrew and party,
who have been camping at Long Pond,
near AVlnwood, for the past ten days,
When wo read of an elephant hunter who
has been trampled to death in the wilds of
India, we wonder at tbe. ioolbardiness of a
man who will traal rouad tlie world and
endure ill raanaer of hardships, in order to
court death in a far away jungle, A man
does not bare to niaice a jjurney to India
in order to court death in a manner equally
foiiheirjy.
Thousands f hard working men are daily
roumar death iu a much more certain
form, without erer leaving their native vil.
lace cr cities. Thar are the men who neg.
U-ct their health. They are the men who
court death from cunsumption, or some
opier deadly disease due to improper or
i'ltumciant nourishment The man who
(uflfera trom blliona or nervous disorders,
who has a weak stomach and an impaired
dlgeatloa, who haa lost the power to eat,
teat or aleep, and who fails to take prompt
ateps to remedy these conditions, is court
ing death in tbe gulso of some fatal malady.
Dr. Fierce' Golden Medical Discovery
cures 98 per cent, of all cases of bronchial,
throat and laryngiai affections that lead up
to consumption. It soothes the cough,
facilitates expectoration and restores tbe
lost appetite. It corrects all disorders of
the digestion, makes the assimilation of
the life-giving element of the food perfect.
It tavigoratei the liver and purifies and en.

"I bad a bad cough and got ao low with it that
