A NARROW ESCAPE.

THREE LADIES PLUNGED INTO THE PEOATONIOA RIVER, NEAR WINSLOW, BY A RUNAWAY TEAM. Three ladies, Mrs. Knotts, Miss Sarah Taylor and Mrs. Lola Lloyd, had a narrow escape from serious injury, if not death, says the Warren Sentinel. They were all riding in a buggy, and when about half-way between Honey Creek and Buchanan's mills, a few miles from Winslow, met with the accident mentioned, which is best told in the following description kindly furnished by a friend: While driving along one of the horses became frightened at a cow by the side of the road, and jumped sideways, so as to bend the tongue, and also cause it to drop from the neck- yoke, The end of the tongue then jammed into the ground, while the horses were kicking furiously all the while.

Suddenly the horses made a short turn and ran toward the river (the Pecatonica) while Misses Taylor and Lola were pulling on the lines with all tnelr might to turn them toward a fence. They dashed down the steep bank, which was nil of ten feet to the water, and landed in the water, which was fully eight feet deep at that place. The carriage was upturned, and the ladies thrown into the water at a considerable distance from the shore, but fortunately as the carriage fell Miss Lloyd lumped, and landed near enough to the bank to wade ashore and hurry for assistance. As soon as the buggy struck the water the horses struggled loose from it, and plunged into the stream, away from the ladies, leaving the buggy in deep water about twenty feet from the shore, and lying on its side. Miss Taylor clung to the top of the buggy and did not go to the bottom, but still her head went under water.

When she came to the surface she climbed up onto the buggy wheel, and in this way supported herself. But Mrs. Knotts was not so fortunate, and being in very deep water undoubtedly would have drowned had it not been for Miss Taylor. As she came to the surface the second time, in some mauuer she caught on to the brace of the buggy, and kept her head above water she was gasping for breath, having a shawl wrapped around her head. Seeing her as she came to the surface, Miss Taylor took hold of her hair, and in this manner supported her until the arrival of assistance.

Miss Phoebe Buchanan and a Mr. Lathrop came to the rescue, having been summoned by Miss Lloyd. Miss Buchanan tore two boards from a fence, and with these Mr. Lathrop waded as far as possible, and reaching them to the two ladies soon rescued them from their perilous position. The ladies then walked to the residence of Mr.

Buchanan, fully a quarter of a mile, while some of the male neighbors who had been aroused secured the horses, landing them about a hundred yards from the place where they jumped in. The horses were unhurt, except a few slight scratches. The ladies suffered no material injury, Mrs. Knotts having sprained finger as the most serious caa- uality of the exciting accident. The buggy tongue, the whiffletrees, a spring and the neckyoke were broken, but they were repaired in short order at Winslow and the team driven back home by Mr Lloyd.

The ladies desire to express their heartfelt thanks to their rescuers and particularly to the courage anc bravery of Miss Buchanan do they wish to bear honorable tribute, while to the heroism of Miss Tayloi does Mrs. Knotts feel that she owes the preservation her life. A terrible feature of rheumatism and neuralgia is their tendency toward the heart. In this stage, patients are gen erally given up; but Athlophoros seems to be master of these diseases even after they have assumed that dangerous form. Mr.

Alexander Pelcher, New Haven, after writing about his own wonderful cure by Athlophoroa says: "I recommend it to a man the doctors gave up to die with rheuma tism of the heart, and it cured him."

THE PLANS FOE THE NEW BUILDING AnmvETins MEETING OF DIIIEOTORS.

Capt, Barnes, president of the Board of Education, received from Wheelock Clay, the architects, two sets'of plans for the new school building, together with the specifications. The whole business was submitted to the Board this morning, at a meeting at Clerk Barnum's office, and the gentlemen expressed themselves as well pleased with the designs. A full description of the new building was published in these columns a few weeks ago, which gave a general idea of the character of the building. The alleged sketch of the building, which bangs in Krohn's store, was made by some parties for Wheelock Clay. It by no means represents the building as it will be, and already a great deal of dissatisfaction has been expressed.

It ought to be "fired" and a correct likeness made. The clerk was instructed to advertise for bids for the various branches of the work, TEMPERANCE TALK. THE 0. T. U.

SESSION AT A LABGE SEVERAL GOOD REPOR.TS FROM THE DELEGATES. The session of the W. C. T. XL, now being held at Bockford, is reported as being a very interesting one, and the attendance of delegates is quite large.

Thursday morning the officers met in executive sesssion. Mrs. Rising, of Lena, was put on the business committee, and Miss Laura Kfnyon was appointed a page. Mrs Minnie Budlong made an address of welcome. IN RESPONSE.

Miss Sadie Myers, of Freeport was ac- orded the pleasant duty of delivering the response to the address of welcome, which she did handsomely as follows MY DEAR That branch of moral reform which by universal consent is called "Temperance enfolding in its wide embrace many from all classes of society, receiving more or less alternation from pub'ic speakers, from the minister of the gospel of peace at the sacred desk, the senator in legislative h'alls, the politician on the rostrum, the sober thinking man and woman, the home builders and home keepers, the fathers and mothers of the uprising generations, the instructors of the young in the public schools this tidal wave ing over the land has at length reached us, the young women of the country and while we have not experienced the beneficial, but saddening effects or wisdom which can only be gained little by little as the years glide by to recorn mend we can and do bring enthusiasm, hope and zeal as our outfit arid aak for a chance to help somewhere, somehow in this great struggle between the powers of darkness end light. We thank you, dear sisters, for your kind words of welcome, and although we are strangers, face to face, we are not strangers in this grand and glorious cause, while we come, as we suppose, with our hearts full of the spirit of work, and as we take our departure we carry with us higher aims and tions, in regard to this 0 rnd work. Again allow me to thank you for the encouraging words and hospitalities we are about to Considering the few days we are together here, is time, we know, not spent iu vain, but shall ever look upon it as a green spot in memory's casket, where shall be twined the leaves and roses of affection. In its general report, the Gazette says Reports of Unions were next in order. Mrs Snyder, of Lena, report 'd their union flourishing though the burden falls mainly on a few.

They paid ther full apportionment, and could have made more money if their mite boxes had been bigger and handsomer. They have all day prayer meetings on ele. tion, and have prohibition. Miss Alice Sanboru reported the Freeport union to be doing mostly homework in the line of distributing literature, securing lecturers, etc. The Murphy Union and the Y.

W. C. T. U. recently organized do much to raise the temperance sentiment in the town.

TUESDAY EVENING there was a session at the First Baptist Church, at which there was a large attendance. Miss Goodrich said there had been nine new Unions formed, not as many HS they had hoped for, but a flattering number.but they had developed to a considerable extent in other directions, and the outlook for the coming year was most promising. God had led them in the work, and all honor belonged to Him. Mrs. Snyder, of Lena, announced that that branch had already made a good advance, and was increasing in membership, and exerting a powerful temperance influence.

The effect may already be seen in that Lena was a no- license town, as the direct result of their temperance work. The teetotal sentiment is growing in that town. There has been much to contend with, and there is still a great deal work to accomplish, Mrs. Snyder had heard some ladies say they were discouraged, but she would bid them be of good faith. The Lena Union had been working against odds, but meetings were always held.

If there were but two present, a meeting was held. The speaker remembered one meeting when one only attended. She reported it a most pleasant meeting and thus the good work was carried out. Reports from other Unions followed; all being of an encouraging character, THE DELEGATES, Among the delegates and visitors are Mrs Weight, Miss Alice dard, Miss Laura Mies badie Myers, Mffts 'HattfgTiijfgart, Miss Agnes Milner, Laura Mrs. T.

Mr. Savage has been here nearly three years, and he regrets very much that he is compelled to go away. The health of his children is not very good, and he considers a change of climate the best. He at one time officiated there. The gentleman has made an excellent pastor for the Baptist church, and his people beie are very much attached to him.

He is a man of very gqod ability. A better pastor cannot be found, and it is with regret that the congregation parts with him. In his new field of labor he has the best wishes of all. E. CONFERENCE.
