.RUNAWAY HORSE'S CAPER
Attached to Grocery Wagon It Causes
Quito n flurry on Main Stieet.
Wagon Fit for Repair Shop.
A riiimwity horse, owned liy Merehunr
P. R McDonough, of PIko stieet. ami
attached to oiio of IiIh grocery wagons,
disturbed the (pilot of Main street yes
terday afternoon, iirul caused unite a
loininotlou while the exciting Incident
lusted.
The horse took fright on upper Muln
Mreet, anil tore down the avenue at a
vllil pace, drugging the wagon from
one side of the stieet to the other,
chasing to retreats of safety pedestrl
mis who feared that the aulinal In his
vlld Might might turn on the sidewalk
nnd run them down.
Midway In the block between Sixth
ami Seventh avenues, tho light wagon
that was being can led along like a
toy express cart, bumped up against a
coal wagon with a bump Hint shook
every fastening In Its light framework.
The stout coal wagon sent Its weaker
brother In the air, but It came down
squarely, only to gel a second bump
an Instant later against a telegraph
pole in fiont of Mesen's saloon. The
force of this collision overturned the
wagon and somewhat i becked the
speed of the sorrel runnwu), which
continued, however, with the bax of
the wagon sliding along the pavement.
Hie wheels In the ah.
At Seventh avenue, two men. Patrick
Planner)- and .lohn Wilson ventured
close to the struggling hore. which
was In a feaiful mix-up In the loosen
Ing barings. They succeeded in slop
ping the ruuawa, but it was a greater
task to fiee the kicking colt from the
harness, which was tangled about the
bind legs In eveiy coneelvablo twist.
After a heap of pulling and tugging
mid ecliel ordeis and counter-orders
Horn the heroes of the happening, the
panting horse was freed. Then It was
that the real helo of the occasion,
Trunk Mellonald. was given a chanre
to win the plaudits of the Interested
onlookers. The colt was In the humor
of giving another wild exhibition and
started to make matteis lively in its
attempt to make for the Pike, when
it gets Its dally oats and hay. Hut
McDonald stuck like sticky fly-paper,
until you eould hear the spectators ex
claim, "That's grit for you." and Mr.
Colt gave up the struggle and put off
bis supper hour for another while.
The wagon seat was broken and
sentteicd along the i midway, nnd
there aie pails that will need the
wagon repaliers' attention.
The horse took fright by being struck
with a board that fell from the wagon
while It was being unloaded.

"On the Wnbosh," Monday Evening.
The llostou Herald describes "On tin
Wabash," the opening bill of the King
Dramatic company. Monday evening,
by the following well-chosen words:
"It Is a play that holds the audlcmo
alternately between tears and laugh
ter, with Its linens- heart story, thrill
ing Incidents, and blight comedy
scenes, that run through like a strcuk
of sunshine."
"On the Yulunh" will be found one
of the many strong bills which will be
presented at the draml opera house
next week, at popular prices. II Is
generally considered one of the best
constructed plays of its kind, and the
story Is located in the interior of Indi
ana, which makes U all the more In
teresting. ThlH gives both the artist
and the author every opportunity to
gain effect and construct a picturesque
and telling drama. Kvery detail has
been taken advantage of, and It Is the
claim of the King Dramatic company
that their presentation Is equal In
every way to the original production.
The drama calls for nine dlffernt stago
settings, each of which are shown coin
plete. Kind Words for Rev. Dr. Wlmlen.
The following references compliment,

MEN BEFORE
THE PUBLIC EYE
One of Catboudale's citizens, whoso
duties keep him constantly before the
public eye, Is John Klllecn, foreman of
the street denning brigade, or what Is
popularly known as street commis
sioner, though this title Is actually
vested in tho city engineer.
Street Commissioner Klllecn Is a
splendid type of tho sturdy men who
settled In Carbondalo and made it the
home of sons of whom the city Is
proud. Ho Is a descendant of tho earli
est settlers, In fact, he came here when
Carbondalo was no more than what Its
name typifies, Ho has the same rare
characteristics of the pioneer, "the
bold peasantry," who certainly ranked
as their country's pride.
Mr. Kllleen's career has been most
honorable and noteworthy. From early
manhood, he has been Identified with
the city's growth, Its polltlcnl life and
all that had to do with Its advance
ment. In the early days, he was a
noted campaigner, and there were few
political battles in which his influence
and activity were not an important
factor. And he was not unrewarded
for his labors, for be can point to a
line of olllccs to which he was elected
by the choice of his pally. Among
these was a several years' term as
constable, a humble beginning, several
terms iu councils, city marshal for live
years and his present olllce. which ho
has tilled with utmost satisfaction for
ovei a decade of years. For tills ofllce
of street commissioner. Mr. Klllecn has
been chosen for several terms, for 110
eason other than his fitness for the
position. He Is one of the men who
does not regard such a position as a
slnecue, for he Is not afraid to work
himself: he works and works with a
will; and It Is not unusual to sec him
wield a broom or handle a shovel, when
he believes that piiltlug his shoulder
o the wheel will make things move
along more smoothly and rapidly. To
Illustrate that It is titness that retains
him In ofllce, It might be pointed out
that when City lOnglneer Ktipp became
city engineer he was not acquainted
with Mr. Klllecn; he didn't know who
ho was. but he did know that he was
an ctllclcnt man. the right one iu the
right place, and his le-appoliitmeul
was decided on before the city engineer
met the man.
Mr. Klllecn Is decidedly frank and to
the point, on ev.'ry occasion when he
believes he Is In the right, and he will
"hew to the line and let the chips fall
where they may," when he makes up
his mind thai his course Is the right
one. This frankness and thinness and
honesty of purpose are among the
qualities that are most admired iu Mr.
Klllecn by the hosts of friends iu tills
city and valley.
Carbondnle, from away back, has had
abundant reason to be nroud of her
ionp., for they can be relied upon to do
iTeillt to her wherever they may be.
Therefore, whenever one of them Is
more than ordinarily successful, the
town is sure to rejoice Iu his good for
tune. One of these examples Is Will
lam Collins, son of John M. Collins, of
Fallbrook street, and brother of Frank
Collins, teacher In the Cniiiondiilo Hlirb
school, who has achieved a line repu
tation in lolhtng trade circles here
abouts. Mr. Collins has been located
Iu Scranton for oxer a doy.en years, hut
the Knowledge of his success is not
conllned to that city. It spread among
the trade beyond that city, and It came
about that a few weeks ago he was
given an offer by Vogel Hrothers, of
.M'W loi'K city, one or the celehrated
retail clothing linns of the metropolis,
which he has accepted and where he Is
now located. It can he ni-eillcted ilmt
this recognition of Mr. Collins ability
ami titness is hut the beginning of a
steady rise to higher places In his line,
lie well possesses the qualities and all
that is needed are the opportunities to
exercise them.
Mr. Collins befr.'in Ills ent'eee In ttilu
city, lii a humble way, as "stock boy"
In the store of Crager, where the Park
clothing house now stands. This was
when lie wore knickerbockers. He
steadily advanced In the knowledge of
the trade, to which he seemed esne.
dally adapted, and in a few years he
was ine iieiiq salesman In the store.
With tho dosing of this store, he went
to Hilcovlth's and continued with this
concern, even after It left the city and
moved to New York state. Mr. Col
lins' services were eagerly sought by
l.auer & Marks, of Scranton, with
whom he remained, enjoying their
closest coulldeiice and regarded by
them not only as a successful sales
man but one whose thorough knowl
edge of the trade was quite a factor in
the suci essl'ul conduct of their busi
ness. Then the offer came from Vocel
Urns, which offered oppoi tilllitles that
were too valuable to be set aside. It
Is needless to add that niiuieioiis
wishes for continued success will ac
company Mr. Collins to the big city.
Another one of Carbondale's promis
ing young men. who has left his native
clly. though only temporarily, to tit
himself for the bailie of life, Is C. P.
O'c air, who left this week lor Phila
delphia, to enter the I'dlverslty of
I'eniisylvunla to strive for the degice
of doctor of denial surgery.
Mr. O'Connor has been a decided
favoille. both among bin employers and
associates at work and the society In
which he moved. For ten years lie was
stenographer In Hie ofllce of the Hen
dricks Maniifactuiing company, also
llllllig the olllce of secretary In Hon. K.
K. Heiidiicks. piesideut of the com
pany, and I.. Albert P.asselt. secretary
of the corporation. Ample testimony
of his efllclency and capability has
been given by his employers, who felt
they sustained a loss In bis departiue.
Mr. O'Connor has a social side that
has a magnetic Influence In attracting
friends and retaining their friendship.
His sunny temperament warms the
gathering where he inlghl lie. while
his ready wit Is an acceptable and en
joyable condiment to any conversation.
The merry side of life always appeals
to him. ami several years ago, when
local theatric lis weie popular among
the young people, he was the life of
the various entertainments that were
held. "Nix" O'Connor, as he was fa
miliarly known, ami tho application of
this namo Is pardonable, was a wel
come visitor wherever there was an as
semblage of young people.

station, discovered a horse upon the
track. The horse was standing and
making frantic efforts lo free one of
its hind feet, which was caught In n
switch frog. The anlinal gave a Jump,
and In doing so the hoof was torn off.
The horse then hobbled along up the
track as far as the Mount .Tesstip foal
coinpnny's barn, whero company em
ployes took tho horse In charge. The
animal had nearly bled to death. No
one has called to claim the animal.
Tho horse Is white In color and small

to be shot.

Mayor B.J.Irvin,

Hon. I! J. Irvln, Mayor of Washing
ton, tin., in a lecenl letter to the Per
unn Medicine Co., of Columbus, O.,
says:
"I have frequently used Peruna In
my family and have found it nn ex
cellent remedy for colds and ns a
tonic. I often recommend it to my
friends." B. J. Iivin.
The politician of all men must
needs bo In good health and splendid
spirits. There Is nothing so exhaus
tive to body nnd mind ns to conduct a
political campaign wiih the upliit and
vim, courage nnd Intellect that charac
terize political campaign In the fnlted
States.
Sometimes these campaigns require
tho speakers and managers to sleep
In n different bed every night, eat at
different hotels every day, travel by
day and speak at night for many
months at n time.
No one can endure this strain with
out some remedy to iprotect tlicm from
the vicissitudes of the climate. Some
thing to Insure good digestion and
sound sleep, something to give nerve
nnd brain the invlgoratlon neeewsary to
meet such nn extraordinary strain.
Peruna Is the remedy to meet cadi
one of these conditions. Perhaps it
would bo going too far to say that it Is
the only remedy that will do this, but
nt least It Is the best known remedy
and the best tried remedy nnd the
remedy recommended by the most peo
ple as exactly adapted to the exposure
and exhaustion Incident lo campaign
work.
Not only does the politician find It
exactly the remedy that ults his needs,
but the farmer, the housewife, the
clergyman, the clerk, the society wom
an and the day laborer all alike And
Peruna to be not only curative but
preventative.
In this climate where everybody Is
liable to catarrh nnd everybody has It
lu some form or other, Peruna has be
come a fixture and llkf the telephone
and the eiectiic light could hardly be
spared from civilization.
