DOG IN PIPE
. SEVEN DAYS.
I Was Struck by a Train and Bad
ly Injured but Managed to
Seek Place of Safety.
tfAS sfirr ALIVE.
for a Whole Week the Animal Remained
Under Cover and People Thought it
was Dead? This Morning it was Gotten
out and wHI be Cared for Until it has
Recovered. - ?
One week ago today two dogs, one
4arge and one very small, were play
ing at the Smith street orossing of the
<Jentral railroad. The 9 a. m. express
from Lone Branch struck the larger
one, hurling him high on the bank on
the west side of the tracks. The dog
afterward crawled into the large iron
-drain pipe under Smith street and was
never seen to come out.
Today Albert Erickson, of Elm
street, told expressmen Dory Ander
son and Skidmore that the dog was
still in the pine and was alive. The
expressmen doubted the story but
when U. S. mail carrier Hans Laiseu
heard of it he got "Pete," the station
?helper, to crawl through the pipe
from the north end while he coaxed
the dog from the other.
The animal was finally gotten out
and it W found that his left front
paw was badly cut and his left eye
out, while his right hip is crushed.
The dog. not having food or water in
seven days, drank nearly a gallon
from the brook near the tracks.
Larsen's first thought was to put the
?dog in a neighboring yard and have a
policeman kill it, but the people re
fused and'Larsen took the dog to his
home and cared for it. The mail
carrier says he will do all in his power
to save the animal, which after es
caping death by the train, nearly
starved itself to death being too scared
to come out of the pipe.

BY TELECRAPH POLE.
Team Belonging to Martin Hansen
Became Frightened and Dashed '
up Washington Street
An exoiting runaway oocurred on
Washington street last night when a
team of horses, owned bv Martin
! Hansen, the contractor, dashed np
that thoroughfare nearly upsetting
I the wagon and bringing up in a tele
graph pole.
The driver of the wagon had been
I to one of the local shipyards to get a
; load of wood, and when near the
| corner of High street he left thejhorses
standing in the middle of the street
while he entered a store for a few
seconds.
In the meantime the horses took
fright and started off at a gallop. At
the corner of East avenue they made
a sudden turn, alirost upsetting the
I wagon. At East avenue and New
| Brunswick avenue tney ran full tilt
into a telegraph pole which brought
| them to a sudden stop.
The driver, with a number of
friends was close behind the horses
and they soon found that the only
slight damage had been done to the
wagon.

IKxpulxlon of Jews nt Kiel*.

hence the ever increasing emigration,
especially to the United States, which
the emigrant aid societies represent as

NOVA SCOTIAN6 WRECKED.
irlttah Stcniner Re*rne* Prrl?hlng
|V* Crew In Mlducean.
NORFOLK, Va., May 15.-The Brit
ish steamship St. Oswald, from Mobile
'or Norfolk, has arrived here with the
:rew of the shipwrecked British brig
mtlne Bertha <Jray, from Jacksonville
to Skitts island. For nearly a week
Captain Richards and the men aboard
the English sailing craft were tossed
about at the mercy of wind and wave.
The vessel's rigging was gone and the
hull waterlogged. Salt water pouring
In between the decks quickly spoiled
their food and rendered their supply of
fresh water useless.
Weary with many hours of pumping,
almost overcome with hunger and
heartsick at the dreary prospect of
ever coming through their bitter expe
rience alive, the Nova Scotian mariners
had about abandoned all hope of safe
ty when the St. Oswald responded to
their signals of distress.
The rescue of the shipwrecked sail
ors was a thrilling one. The waves
were running mountain high and the
wind was blowing a gale when the
crew were taken from the wreck.
