ORSES in town seem to have been struck by a runaway fever. Two teams caused consider able excitement Satur day afternoon and ono driven by Nathan Beddall yesterday al most caused one or more oeaths to bo recorded. The team owned by the Coakley Bros, had hardly been captured and returned to tho owners when Christ. Schmidt's team created a stir near the corner of Oontro and Alain streets. In trying to stop the latter team a young man named Charles Reese (was thrown down and received a wound on tho. scalp that required three stitches. In Mr. Beddall's the results wore quite sorious and it was a miracle that a death was not caused. Mr. Beddall and his wife and young child went out for a drire, While driving down the mountain on the return the horse ran away. The animal behaved so badly that Mr. Beddall com' pletely lost control of it and those. who wit' nossed the affair feired that the occupants of the buggy would bo thrown Into ono of the mine breaches, or deep ditches at tho side of the road, The bounding over the rocky road released the seat of the buggy and at Line street it slid off, throwing Mr. Beddall,, his wife and child to the road. Several people hastened to the relief of the unfortunates. JVIr. and Mrs. Beddall were but slightly stunned by the fall and were able to walk, with assistance, into Superintendent Thoma3 Baird's house, where they woro made comfortable until the arrival of Mr. Beddall's brothers. Mrs, Beddall held the child in her arms through out tho exciting period. The horse continued down Main street until half way between Line and Coal streets, when it turned toward the pavO' ment. The buggy struck some flag-stones and tho horso was released. The animal made a terrifia bound and as it arrived in front of the entrance to the Commercial Hotel one of its legs struck atelegraph pole with such force as to inflict a bad cut on the member and throw the animal down. It was taken to a near-by stable. Mr. and lire. Beddall woro able to walk to their residence on North Jardin street after a little rest, Inquiring friends were informed that they had sustained a few cuts on thoir heads and (heir, limbs were slightly bruised, but none of tho injuries were serious. Tho same report was made of tho child's condition. That tho party escaped so well is considered a miracle. Finest photos, COo. per dozen, at Keagey 's. riro In tho First. The fire companies were eummonod to the residence of Councilman Coakley, on EaBt Lloyd street, early Saturday evening. A fire had started in a fear storage-room on the third story of the. building and secured good headway before the alarm was sounded. A bucket brigade did excellent work, however( and tho companies were not obliged to use tho hoso. The damage to the bouse and contents was slight. It is believed that a spark from a kitchen chimney set fire to a mattress that was in tho room. Finest photos, COe. per dozen, at Kcagey's. Fell With n Torch.

LITTLE HOPE FOR FULL TIME Throe and Four Days Likely to be tho Rule Superintendent Shrefiler's Headquarters Will Remain at Ashland, LMWOODi Suffolk, Mahanoy City and Turkey Run collieries, which had been idle for some time, re sumed operations with tho rest of tho col lieries under the Bead ing system to-day. This announcement was received as a forerumer of other good news yesterday, but to-day thero were no indications for a realization of tho hope. There is nothing that promises more than four days this week at any of the collieries. A gentleman prominent in mining circles was asked by a Herald reporter to-day if he thought tho working time at the col lieries would be extended soon. He said he did not; that he feared the working time will be very irregular for the balance of tho year. The coal trade is in a "con sumptive" state and, while the prices may go up, the production will not warrant full time. He said six days may be the working timo occasionally, but three and four days a week will in all probability be the rule. M. T. Shrefllor, the newly appointed division superintendent of the P. & R. C & I. Co., will not have his headquarters or residence in town. It is said that he will remain in Ashland, as that point is more central for his district. An impression prevails that Mr. ShrefHor simply succeeds John L. "Williams, but this is not so. Mr. Shrefflar also assumes charge of tho Sbamokin district surren dered by ex-Superintendent Booth several months ago, so that ho will have tho respon sibility of all tho P. & R. collieries from Trevorton to Mahanoy City. Mr. Will iams' district extended from Mahanoy City to Girardvillo. LOST GREEK. A Lively Mining Patch Since tho Advent of the Klectrlc. Garden making is about over.

"A Suro and Simple Cure for the Blues" was the subject of Sunday morning's dis course at the Methodist Episcopal church. Tho remedy proposed is prescribed in Phil, iv, 0-7 : "Be careful for m thing but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God, and the peace of God which passeth all understanding shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." The moaning of this exhortation is not that we should bo absolutely careless, but that we aro not to be so anxious as to worry and fret about things we cannot help. No man would sink under the troubles of to-day were he sure that to morrow would not bring more. It is the everlasting worry about trials which we fear may come that is killing men and women. Multitudes are living, not in the present, but in the futuro or in the past. They pine over departed joys or frighten, over anticipated sorrows. They contemn. the flowers that bloom at their feet because they are not so fragrant as those they gathered in by-gone days or else they trample them under their feet in quest o more beautiful ones thoy expect to find just beyond. Others again look on and admire but fear to pluck them lest some rude blast wither them. We livo in a world of uncertainty and sorrow. "Man is born unto trouble as the sparks fly up ward." We are creaturos of a moment, here to-day and gone to-morrow. Sick ness and pain, poverty and bereavement are stalking abroad, and who knows how soon one or another may enter his home? We cannot help thinking about these things. It is natural that we should worry about them. And when God hedges our way in and we see no way of escape wo are very likoly to giveaway to despondency. We ask "What shall we do ?" Wo feel as though we must do something if it is only to make bolieve we aro solving tho problem. Human grief must find an outlot. Pent up feelings must express themselves at length even though it be only in a sullen fit ot the blues. Paul says pray. "Men ought always to pray and not to faint." Nothing that is capable of causing a heart acho is too insignificant to pray about, "In everything pray." Not only pray bu supplicate Like the Saviour pray "yet more earnestly." "Ask, seek, knock. Mix thanksgiving with your prayer." If you look around you will find something to be thankful for. Paul was in prison and liable to execution at any moment when he wrote these words and we have hardly come to that yet. If God clothes the grass of the field and caros for the birds of the air will He not much more clOvhe and care for you, "O ye of little faith?" "If Ho spared not His own Son but delivered Him up for us all will He not also with Him freely give us all things ?" Your heavenly Father knoweth that ye havo need of all theso things, And if you "seek first tho kingdom of God all theso things shall bo added unto you." Not that God has promised to give us all we ask for. Jesus prayed to have "this cup pass away" and Paul besought the Lord thrice that "the thorn in tho flesh might depart from him" and both theso requests wero denied and the servant is not above his Lord. What then ? Why should I pray ? To save you from tho blues. "The peaco of God which passeth all understanding shall keep your mind and heart." You shall be reconciled to your lot and mado satisfied in spite of it. Like Moses you shall be enabled to "en dure as seeing Him who is invisible." Although God may not answer tho prayer in tho form in which it is offered He will answer and supply tho need that promp's it. tVhon Traveling Whether on pleasure bent, or business, tako on overy trip a bottle- of Syrup ot Figs, as it acts most pleasantly and effec tively on tho kidneys, liver and bowels, preventing fevers, headaches and other forms of sickness.
