THEIR GMRIME UPSET, Tlio Two r.tullc Woro Precipitated to tlio Ground and HeiipntU tlio Vchlr-lo Fortu nately tlio Horso Did Not Uiin Away Slight Injuries Sustained. HERE was an accident at Ellengowau yester- day by which tlio wlfo of Mino Inspector Wni. Stein, of town, and ono of his daughters, Miss Agnes Stoin, had an extraordinary escape Miss Stein teaches school at Ellcngowan and her mother sonio times drives over thcro about tho dismissal hour to bring her homo. Yesterday tho mother and daughtor woro ssatod in tho buggy and Mrs. Stoin held tho reins. In starting from tho school houso a very short turn was mado and tlio buggy upset, tho occupants falling beneath it. Fortunately tho horso was a quiet ono and did not start to run away, but tho upsotting of tho carriago and tho screams of tho frightened women mado tho animal nervous. In prancing about it stepped upou tho pros trato victims several times boforo assistance arrived. Soveral mon and women hurriod to tho placo and while some held tho horso others oxtricatod Mrs. Stein and hor daughter from their porilous situation and they wcro canied to tho rosldenco of Mrs. Corrigan, noar tho school building. It wa3 found that thoy suffered principally from shock aud had only suffered a few slight bruises, so far as outward appearances wont, although Mrs. Stein com plained of a pain in hor sldo. Messrs. O. E. Tltman and Gordon Clanser happoned to pass tho Corrigan houso shortly after tho accident and thoy took Mrs. and Miss Stein to their homo on West Oik street, where medical attendance was summoned. It is said that noithor lady suffered seriously from tho experience and both will bo all right again in a day or two. Their frionds think they had a miraculous esoape. HERE IS AN INSTANCE. Doesn't This Democratic llea Work llotli Ways ? Last evening ono of tho niost prominent candidates on the Democratic ticket made a thorough canvass of the town in company with an ex-saloonkeeper. The candidate is a recognized total abstlnenoe man and during his rounds last night he made temperance a special plea. This question lie1 repeatedly put to people whose support he asked, "Vou do not wish to support a saloonkeeper for office, do you ?" and it was directed against his Republican opponent. Now it is a poor rulo which does not work both ways. If voting for a saloonkeopor is against any law of morality or law of tho land then tho people who think so and aro advocating it must also attack tho Democratic ticket. But singularly enough tho Demo emtio candidate who was making this plea last night mado no reforenco to tho saloon keepers who aro candidates on the Demo cratic ticket for two very important offices, neither did ho seem to seo the inconsistency of being piloted about by a gontleman who kept a sporting saloon in town for several years and is still a very intimate friond of most of the prominent men in that business. Eruption of the Skin Cured. Ed, Vcuuoy, Brockvlllo, Ontario, Canada, says : "I havo used Brandreth's Pills for tno past fifteen years, and think them the best oathartio and anti-bilious remedy known. For some five years I suffered with an eruptibn of tho Bkin that gavo mo great pain and annoyance. I tried different blood remedies, but, although gaining strength the itching was unrelieved, I finally concluded to take a thorough course of Brandreth's Pills. I took six each night for four nights, then five, four, three, two, lessening each time by one, and then for one month took ono overy night, with the happy result that now my skin is perfectly clear and has been so over since."

V Somo of tho Herald boys enjoyed a good Joke at tho oxponso of ono of its oldest readers yesterday. Ho had nover seen a tolphono operated and had novcr held tho roccivor to his oar; in fact ho knew nothing at all about it and gladly accepted an invita tion to walk down to tho oUlco and "soo tho old thing work." On tho way down ho stopped at Schoifly's and had a glass of boor, and munched an applo during tho remaiudor of tho journoy. While the visitor was looking over tho presses ono of tho boys rushed in exclaiming, "Is Mr. hero?" "Yos, I am here," answered tho old reader, and ho was told that a gentloman was calling him to the 'phono. The visitor protested that ho know "nothing about the darn old'thiug aud anybody having business with him would have to write, telegraph or call in person." Upon assistance being volunteered onr leader consented to go to the instsument, put tho receiver to his ear and shouted, "Hello!" into the transmitter. Ho had no sooner followed instructions than he was staggered by a vigorous, "Hello yourself I" "Golly, there is something" "Listen, listen, ask what is wanted," said one of tho bystanders. Again the reador stepped forward and after shouting, "Who inj aro you and what do you want?" Like a flash there came bask, "I know you, what beer is that you've been drink ing? It seems liko Scheifly's. Even apples wouldn't disfigure its trademark." Our friend threw down the receiver, his eyes were as big as saucers and ho seemed anxious for somebody to piuch him to see if he was really alive. He agreed that the "telephone" was a great invention and walked slowly out of the office homeward bound to tell his wife of his experience. When horoads this it will bo the first inti mation to him that the man at the other ond of the line was posted. V The fight for the local postofiloo has become hot, aud so complicated that it may yet be necessary to tako up a compromise candidate But "Mike" Mollct is still confidont, slnco he has Congressman Koilly at his back; "Charley'' Qulnn has a different opinion and is sure that with Harrity, Heusol and the National delegates in his favor Mellet isn't in it! and "Milt's" frionds say they havo a hopo which is almost fathomless. The latter havo not boon idle and if half the reports in circulation aro true Mastor is a winner. It is said that Postmaster General Bissel aud oven President Cleveland have received personal calls in behalf of the tombstono man ; and that even Mrs. Cleve land has been requested to Interest herself in the case. It is said the best argument made by Master's friends to the President, and which seemod to be the most favorably received, was that the Irish Democrats were gobbling all the offices in the county and the German Democrats were being left in tho cold. As a warm adherent of Master states it, ".Don't be surprised if you read after election day of tho appointment of "Milt" Master as suocessor to Postmaster Boyer." Isaacher Bobbins, who haB just returned after spending the past summer in Chicago, has expressed himself pretty freely ovor tho present condition of the country. Ho says the people of tho West are thoroughly disgust ed with the present Administration and claim it is responsible for the present hard times. They say that at tho next presidential elec tion, if not before, the Democratic party will not have a leg to stand on. Mr. Bobbins is very enthusiastic over the World's Fair aud Chicago and says both are greater than the greatest. He is engaged iu the cab and transfer bushiest there and hat over eighty horses in the service, but still holds bis re sidence in PotUville. Mr. Bobbins will spend the winter In Qhloegp and return Bast In tfce firing. The Mteaignu breams mutt agree with him ffer he is looking better tkan be has fer several years. Qbe.

Byrno complained that he lost a drill in tho mino and did not find it until sovernl days after when ho saw it In tho blacksmith shop of the colliery. Tho next morning ho went to the shop early and saw Hogau tako it away. Ho followed and alter thoy had walked somo distanco into tho mino Hogau saw ho was boing followed and surrendered tho tool. Byrno then had Hogan and tho miners for whom ho was working, Wills and McCarthy, arrested on a chargo of larceny. At tho hearing Wills and McCarthy proved thoy did not know tho drill was stolen and they had not claimed ownershin of it. as It is customary for their laborers to furnish their own tools. This being shown tho two mon were honorably discharged, but Hogan was put under $300 bail for trial. Use Wells' La.undbv Blue, tho bei Bluing for laundry uso. Each packago makes iwo quarts. 15cta.

"We have everything in this country we had last year oxcopt prosperity, and wo traded that for a Democratic Administration and a chango; and now how do you liko it?" "Wo don't liko it at all," was tho answer that caruo from a thousand voices when Gov. McKinley asked this question tho other night before tho crowd that, unable to get into tho opora house, iu Denuison, Ohio, gathered before tho hotel and clamored for a speech from the groat champion of protection. 'Tills yoar politics is business and business is politics, Every man in Ohio is going to vote for what he believes will be best for him and for his family. And if you don't like free trade, now is the time to hit it and hit it hard." The cheers which greeted these words of Gov. McKinley would seem to fully Indicate tho feelings and determination of Ohio Re publicans in this campaign. Never has tho Buckeye state witnessed larger or more in terested outpourings of tho poople.

It is quite ovldcnt that the Injunction suits roceutly instituted to restrain tho construction of a reservoir for tho public water works on tho Glrarcl Estate and in proximity to tho Kehlcy Run colliery workings are the most formldablo obstructions yet thrown in tho way of the undertaking, and it is also evident that nil parties coucerncd realize that thoy havo on hand what promises to bo lengthy and bitter legal coutrovcrslos. When tho suits woro first spoken of tho wator works peoplo treated tho reports slightly and said that tho borough would soon bridge the threatened difficulties by filing a bond to indemnify tho complaining parties against damagos; but it now seems that the proposed indemnity plan will not work as smoothly as was expected. Tho Thomas Coal Company takes tho ground that it is not so much the damage to its mino workings and tho loss by suspension of opera tions by reason of floods which Jfc fears, but loss of human life, and it is claimed that all the security tho borough can furnish would not jastify tho placing of scores of miners in the jaws of death when there is no necessity for it. It is claimed that tlio borough can secure just as good a slto with little additional cost at anothor place. Of course this is tho coal company's claim and it proposes to establish it by many affidavits of citizens who work iu tho mines aud those acquainted with thom. Tho borough officials, on tho other hand, claim that tho suits havo been instituted, moroly as a moans to obstruct tho project in tho interest of tho old water company pooplo and thoy say thoy, too, will havo an nbund- anco of affidavits on hand when the day for argument nrrivos.
