Runaway Tram, On Monday evening one of the heavy truck teams of the Parker livery stables ran away and when stopped was a few hours' walk from Port Chester. It seem> that the truck had gone down to th» propeller dock to got perishable stock off the Glenville fcr some merchants. The horses were left standing a few stepr from the dock office on Adee street. Fo> some unknown reason the horses started and before they could he stopped they were on a fall jump to Main street. They passed down Main street without mishap, and were turning iuto the wel, known driveway of the stables, whan. r. man at the door fmrtog tb*y would tfiar things to pieces coming as they were, turned them away. They then kept on down towards Rye. In the out by Qain HAILROAD CONCESSION. inated he would have received the same votes Mr. Ward did," and consequently would have been elected. The argument U a lie on its f vce. He could not have polled " the same votes " Mr. Ward did. We care nothing for party uoc.inatioup. Generally they are the action of a clique and not of the masses of the people or che voters. We know that Mr. W ird was elected by an overwhelming major- tyof the intelligent voter/of th* Dis- rict. The heelers cf Mr. Fairchild did everything to defeat him, but in spite ol their efforts ho was chosen by over 6,000 plurality, and the fallen idol was third u the race for Congress. Since then Mr. Fairchild, like a child, >as been going abont the District in earch of evidence by which to make a :ontest in Congress. He has done some very silly things in his effort to build np t case and not the least of these flukes vere his attempts to have the Courts in erfere in his behalf and have the ballots :ast in the various towns recounted, that le might know how many votes his suc- cessful competitor received under the •egular party ticket. Justice Keogh de lied the silly request from the fact that -here was no case pending in our courts squiring the production of the evidence, int decided that the clerks of the various .owns be ordered not to destroy the bal- lots east at the recent election in the oonnty, until the Congressional contest shaU have been h jard. All the fnnt'y proceedings have been. I by a " quad," and the men on the wheel noticing that there was nobody in the wagon, turned round and followed the horses. They were going very fast, so it was with difficulty that the men, in the dark caught up with the runaway team But after a time they managed to get ahead of the team a sufficient distanct to get off of the wheel ana jump in the wagon aud pull up the animals. By thai time they had got very near Milton. when the young men put their wheel in the wagon and drove the horses back Strange as it may seem there was noth- ing damaged about the horses, harness or wagon.

(3U m GO go be- ts CD i 0 mar to the residents of this District To some they have been full of " inter est," to others of the most indifferent in- terest Those who were loooking for the spoils of office, the loaves and fishes that the Congressman is supposed to dispense, have become very sick at the stomach, r'or iu addition to the loss in Washing- ton, they have also been denied the plunder that Burns had planned to give them, and whioh at one time seemed al- most in their grasp. We are sorry to be forced to these allusions, because we know they are offensive to a certain class of men who have learned to look upon all gods as false who do not find their shrines at. the foot of Mounts Fairchild and Bnrns. But truth and history require that facts should be chronicled as they occur. It must have been humih itiug to the ex-Hon. Fairchild, after scouring the district from one end to another, and with his great legal acumen " scooping," as he thought a great grist of valuable evidence, to find it swept away as irrele- vant or not bearing at all on his at- tempted contest of a seat of a member of Congress elected by an undisputed pluarlity of over 5,000 votes The clacqeurs, of that very nice per- sonage from Pelham, we know, will deny the statement we make, that his search for evidence was as barren as his title to the office ho has been chasing since his defeat in November last. But the facts are these, Ol ye poor doped and disappointed spoilsmen: On Thursday, the Hon. William L. Ward and ex- Hon. Ben L Fairchild, were summoned to appear before the Clerk of the House of Representatives, on which date the testimony in the oon tested case was to be opened, and decide what testimony should be accepted and ordered printed for the use of the Com- mittee on Contests, to be appointed next December. j Mr. Fairobild's Nemesis followed him j before tho Clerk, for mnob to his chagrin the Clerk of the Honse threw out ail of Mr. Fairohild's rebuttal testimony, and a great deal of the direct testimony. We axe certain that Mr. Fairohild's disap- pointment was keen and that he felt that the bottom was knocked out of bis tramped np case, which will go before' the Committee of the Honse with very' little evidence back of it—even in a tech- nical sense. It looks therefore as though Mr. Fairchild would soon strike his tent and go out of the circus business. Abaat fav Bjrea. When reading, do letters and words run in get her and beeimie indistinct ?

At White Plains to day will be ar raigned the Assessors of the Towns of Monut Vernon, East Chester, Pelham, Mamaroneck aud Ky->. who were recent- ly indicted by a Grand Jury, charged with neglect of dnty in making-the assessment in their respective {owns. In othw words they are charged with fail- ing to assess cor tain personal property Tie indefiniteness of the law is snob that nearly every Assessor in the County can be indicted for the same cause as the Assessors from the towns named. It is not believed that any of the Assessors were intentionally direliot, hut that the omission if any there was was not done through criminal, bnt rather through the vagueness or insufflclenoy of law. We do not believe that any case will be made out against the accused, because the law contemplates there must be evi- dence of criminal intent to convict the accused of wrong doing. We do not be- lieve that it was the intent of Justioe Keogh .so impose a hardship on any one, bnt rather to warn the Assessors with a view of improving the servioe and the law as well. Now that the latter has been in- vestigated and the duties of the Assessors made plain we do not believe It will re", ', quire loig to find out the bad points of i the law, so that it may be amended and ( the work of the Assessor made easjer and plainer. % Who Will an *»>• P r t a e l The smart boys of the publio schools of this Congressional District have an op- portunity of securing the appointment to West Point Military Academy.

The Post Rooms will be open for the reception of flowers on Saturday aud Sunday morning as the Post will not form in parade until one o'clock p. m. A FOOL18H ACT. On Sunday afternoon, near the Rail- road Bridge on the Post Road was an ac- cident which might have been fatal "BT seems that some fellows whose gross ignorance must be colossal, on the after- noon named took the bridle from the head of the horse he had attached to a wagon.and then permitted the animal to graze by the road side. This in Itself was harmless, bnt the horse frightened or restless started to run away and before the individual that owned it could in any way restrain the animal it was off. On the road happened to be Mr. John Mon gon, of Greenwich and his friend Mr W. Booth. Despite their most earnest effort to avoid the runaway they were struck by the team and upset. Mr. Booth received a severe laceration of the head and had to have several stitches taken in his torn scalp. Mr. Mongon had his hip quite badly hurt. The horse and vehicle belonged to a New Rochelle party. The wagon in which was Mr. Booth and Mr. Mongon was badly damaged. The young men are however happy that they were not killed. A number of bicyclists who wore resting on the R. R. bridge at Rye, saw the whole accident. Another Narrow Escape. Mrs. Deborah Bates met with another sarions accident while on her way to South Norwalk on Saturday of last week. It will be remembered that Mrs. Bates was thrown from a wagon some years ago, and so seriously hurt that she has since, been compelled to carry her head in a steel brace, to strengthen her neok. It would seem that that mishap would have been sufficient in a life time. By the. last accident Mrs. Bates again sustained a severe shaking up and was badly out by the steel frame about her head and face. But she has recovered steadily and will no doubt be as well as she was be- fore the last accident in a short time. The accident was caused by a barking and snapping our by the road side. It J first attacked the horse attached to the ( wagon in wntoh was a cousin of Mrs. j Bates, then came flying at the head of the horse Mrs^Bates was driving, caus- ing it to run awa>.

Mayor Fiske, of Mount Vernon, will now hare a chance to exercise a little au- thority as Mayor of the new City below. At the election on Tuesday, the Demo- crats succeeded in capturing a sufficient number of Aldermen to tie the Board, so that with the vote of Mayor Fiske the Democrats will have a majority. The defeated hosts say "the stay at homes " did it. We say that the Albany methods did it. Senator Bnrns and his jobs, Fair- child and his contests, Piatt and his » hemes have done it. The people are not fools. OVER THE RIVER. The fire lads in Protection Engine, Hose & Hook & Ladder do not intend to be entirely distanced in social features by tho other companies of the town. They have put a pool table in their rooms, and if times improve, it is not improbable the boys will find a way to, add a bowling alley to their* quarters, a tower, and other necessary appendages. ... Harvey Smith, a well known resident here for a great many years, died of of gangreene.on Sunday, after an illness of some months, caused by an abscess of the knee joint. He was in his 81st year. In his earlier years Mr. Smith bad been quite a prominent man in Ehnira, N. Y.,fllling we believe, the important office of Sheriff in that County. Like most old men he had outlived his gener- ation and was little known to the reel- dents of the town to-day. The funeral services were held on Tuesday after- noon at 3 o'clock, and interment was in Union Cemetery, Greenwich. Pre* Pais, Send yonr aldress to II E.

On Monday evening one of the heavy truck teams of the Parker livery stables ran away and when stopped was a few hours' walk from Port Chester. It seem> that the truck had gone down to th» propeller dock to got perishable stock off the Glenville fcr some merchants. The horses were left standing a few stepr from the dock office on Adee street. Fo> some unknown reason the horses started and before they could he stopped they were on a fall jump to Main street. They passed down Main street without mishap, and were turning iuto the wel, known driveway of the stables, whan. r. man at the door fmrtog tb*y would tfiar things to pieces coming as they were, turned them away. They then kept on down towards Rye. In the out by Qain

inated he would have received the same votes Mr. Ward did," and consequently would have been elected. The argument U a lie on its f vce. He could not have polled " the same votes " Mr. Ward did. We care nothing for party uoc.inatioup. Generally they are the action of a clique and not of the masses of the people or che voters. We know that Mr. W ird was elected by an overwhelming major-tyof the intelligent voter/of th* Dis-rict. The heelers cf Mr. Fairchild did

everything to defeat him, but in spite ol their efforts ho was chosen by over 6,000 plurality, and the fallen idol was third u the race for Congress.

Since then Mr. Fairchild, like a child, >as been going abont the District in earch of evidence by which to make a :ontest in Congress. He has done some very silly things in his effort to build np t case and not the least of these flukes vere his attempts to have the Courts in erf ere in his behalf and have the ballots :ast in the various towns recounted, that le might know how many votes his suc­cessful competitor received under the •egular party ticket. Justice Keogh de lied the silly request from the fact that

-here was no case pending in our courts squiring the production of the evidence,

They were going very fast, so it was with difficulty that the men, in the dark caught up with the runaway team But after a time they managed to get ahead of the team a sufficient distanct to get off of the wheel ana jump in the wagon aud pull up the animals. By thai time they had got very near Milton. when the young men put their wheel in the wagon and drove the horses back Strange as it may seem there was noth­ing damaged about the horses, harness or wagon. But there were some narrow escapes as the horses passed down, Main street.

mar to the residents of this District To some they have been full of " inter est," to others of the most indifferent in­terest Those who were loooking for the spoils of office, the loaves and fishes that the Congressman is supposed to dispense, have become very sick at the stomach, r'or iu addition to the loss in Washing­ton, they have also been denied the plunder that Burns had planned to give them, and whioh at one time seemed al­most in their grasp.

We are sorry to be forced to these allusions, because we know they are offensive to a certain class of men who have learned to look upon all gods as false who do not find their shrines at. the foot of Mounts Fairchild and Bnrns. But truth and history require that facts should be chronicled as they occur.

It must have been humih itiug to the ex-Hon. Fairchild, after scouring the district from one end to another, and with his great legal acumen " scooping," as he thought a great grist of valuable evidence, to find it swept away as irrele­vant or not bearing at all on his at­tempted contest of a seat of a member of Congress elected by an undisputed pluarlity of over 5,000 votes

The clacqeurs, of that very nice per­sonage from Pelham, we know, will deny the statement we make, that his search for evidence was as barren as his title to the office ho has been chasing since his defeat in November last.

But the facts are these, Ol ye poor doped and disappointed spoilsmen: On Thursday, the Hon. William L. Ward and ex- Hon. Ben L Fairchild, were summoned to appear before the Clerk of the House of Representatives, on which date the testimony in the oon tested case was to be opened, and decide what testimony should be accepted and ordered printed for the use of the Com­mittee on Contests, to be appointed next December. j

Mr. Fairobild's Nemesis followed him j before tho Clerk, for mnob to his chagrin the Clerk of the Honse threw out ail of Mr. Fairohild's rebuttal testimony, and a great deal of the direct testimony. We axe certain that Mr. Fairohild's disap­pointment was keen and that he felt that the bottom was knocked out of bis tramped np case, which will go before' the Committee of the Honse with very' little evidence back of it—even in a tech­nical sense. It looks therefore as though Mr. Fairchild would soon strike his tent and go out of the circus business.

MEMORIAL DAY.

Assessor* A r r a i g n e d T o - D a y .

At White Plains to day will be ar raigned the Assessors of the Towns of Monut Vernon, East Chester, Pelham, Mamaroneck aud Ky->. who were recent­ly indicted by a Grand Jury, charged with neglect of dnty in making-the assessment in their respective {owns. In othw words they are charged with fail­ing to assess cor tain personal property T i e indefiniteness of the law is snob that nearly every Assessor in the County can be indicted for the same cause as the Assessors from the towns named. It is not believed that any of the Assessors were intentionally direliot, hut that the omission if any there was was not done through criminal, bnt rather through the vagueness or insufflclenoy of law. We do not believe that any case will be made out against the accused, because the law contemplates there must be evi­dence of criminal intent to convict the accused of wrong doing. We do not be­lieve that it was the intent of Justioe Keogh .so impose a hardship on any one, bnt rather to warn the Assessors with a view of improving the servioe and the law as well. Now that the latter has been in­vestigated and the duties of the Assessors made plain we do not believe It will re",', quire l o i g to find out the bad points of i the law, so that it may be amended and (

the work of the Assessor made easjer and plainer. %

A FOOL18H ACT.

On Sunday afternoon, near the Rail­road Bridge on the Post Road was an ac­cident which might have been fatal "BT seems that some fellows whose gross ignorance must be colossal, on the after­noon named took the bridle from the head of the horse he had attached to a wagon.and then permitted the animal to graze by the road side. This in Itself was harmless, bnt the horse frightened or restless started to run away and before the individual that owned it could in any way restrain the animal it was off. On the road happened to be Mr. John Mon gon, of Greenwich and his friend Mr W. Booth. Despite their most earnest effort to avoid the runaway they were struck by the team and upset. Mr. Booth received a severe laceration of the head and had to have several stitches taken in his torn scalp. Mr. Mongon had his hip quite badly hurt. The horse and vehicle belonged to a New Rochelle party. The wagon in which was Mr. Booth and Mr. Mongon was badly damaged. The young men are however happy that they were not killed. A number of bicyclists who wore resting on the R. R. bridge at Rye, saw the whole accident.

A n o t h e r N a r r o w E s c a p e .

Mrs. Deborah Bates met with another sarions accident while on her way to South Norwalk on Saturday of last week. It will be remembered that Mrs. Bates was thrown from a wagon some years ago, and so seriously hurt that she has since, been compelled to carry her head in a steel brace, to strengthen her neok. It would seem that that mishap would have been sufficient in a life time. By the. last accident Mrs. Bates again sustained a severe shaking up and was badly out by the steel frame about her head and face. But she has recovered steadily and will no doubt be as well as she was be­fore the last accident in a short time. The accident was caused by a barking and snapping our by the road side. It J first attacked the horse attached to the (

wagon in wntoh was a cousin of Mrs. j Bates, then came flying at the head of the horse Mrs^Bates was driving, caus­ing it to run awa>. Mrs. Bates is the daughter of the Venerable David Merritt, for many years the baggage master at this station of the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad.

Mayor Fiske, of Mount Vernon, will now hare a chance to exercise a little au­thority as Mayor of the new City below. At the election on Tuesday, the Demo­crats succeeded in capturing a sufficient number of Aldermen to tie the Board, so that with the vote of Mayor Fiske the Democrats will have a majority. The defeated hosts say "the stay at homes " did it. We say that the Albany methods did it. Senator Bnrns and his jobs, Fair-child and his contests, Piatt and his » hemes have done it. The people are not fools.

OVER THE RIVER.

The fire lads in Protection Engine, Hose & Hook & Ladder do not intend to be entirely distanced in social features by tho other companies of the town. They have put a pool table in their rooms, and if times improve, it is not improbable the boys will find a way to, add a bowling alley to their* quarters, a tower, and other necessary appendages. ...

Harvey Smith, a well known resident here for a great many years, died of of gangreene.on Sunday, after an illness of some months, caused by an abscess of the knee joint. He was in his 81st year. In his earlier years Mr. Smith bad been quite a prominent man in Ehnira, N. Y.,fllling we believe, the important office of Sheriff in that County. Like most old men he had outlived his gener­ation and was little known to the reel-dents of the town to-day. The funeral services were held on Tuesday after­noon at 3 o'clock, and interment was in Union Cemetery, Greenwich.
