GROCER’S HORSE RUNS AWAY.
Animal Owned by Hyman Schachat
Again Makes Excitement in
Norwalk.
The spirited horse belonging to
Groceryman Hyman Schuchat again
’ caused some excitement in Norwalk
yesterday afternoon.
Driver Charles Ruby took the horse
to his home in Lewis street. and tied
It while he had his dinner. The ani-
' mal evidently became frightened and
broke the rope with which it was fun»
tencd, and started madly down the
place known as Tar Hill. which is at
the end of Lewis street.
Mr. Ruby and others heard the noise
.. and were quickly on the scene, but the
‘ horse had brought up against a post
3 and a. fence, and the wagon Wils nearly
demolished. . ’
The horse broke loose from the harn-
' one by the force. of ”the collision, but
. was captured before it Went any
‘ further. ‘
The wagon was removed to Ruby's
: blacksmith shop in Cross street.
. where repairs are being made.

Woman Said to Develope New
Tastes After All Operation
NEWARK, N. J., August 20.—'I‘hc
question if a person‘s mental traits
may be completely revolutionised by
artificial means scouts to be answered
affirmatively in the case of Mrs. Alt-
na Bradley. now In St. .lamcs' Hospi-
tal here. After a quantity of her hair
band's blood was infused into her
veins. a month ago, she underwent ii
complete inertial change, and besides
losing or abandoning her former men-
tal attributes, she has acquired all of
the mental peculiarities of her hus-
band.
The matter, which will be the sub-
ject for discussion] at the next meet-
ing of the Essex County Medical So-
ciety, opens all manner of possibilities.
The doctors of St. James' already be-
llevc that they detect a slight Change
in the voice of Mrs. Bradley. She for-
merly spoke with little strength, but
now her utterances are forceful, and
in a lower key.
The case is one. of the strangest.
which has come to the medical au-
thorities of the east for many years.
Mrs. Bradley. the weak, anaemic witc
of thc prosperous, healthy and strong
business man of Newark. living at No.
13 (lrovc street, was found several
weeks ago to be suffering from It
tumor. It was determined that she
would die unless relieved of the. ill-
mor, lull when she reached St. Jntuos'
Hospital. the surgeons refused to oper-
ate on her, saying that. the tumor had
made such progress that. practically
all of her strength had been sapped by
it. The only chance she had was i"
get a fresh supply of blood.
Her husband, strong and healthy.
volunteered and while he lay beside
wife on the operating table on
July 17 a pint of his blood passed from
his wrist through a little silver tube
and into his wife's wrist.
Until then Mr. Bradley had been
a morosc. dcspondcnt woman, who
saw little cheer in this world. She
was of a quiet disposition, and did
not care for the gayt-tit-s of life. She
seldom laughed. She did not: cure
for amusements. And she was partial
to dark purple, and had a dread of
slate or dark brown Its colors. Shr-
abhorrod bright colors. and especially
strong was her antipathy in green.
Her husband was of a gay disposition.
He liked amusements, and Vol'y strong
was his taste. for green as a color.
The doctors paid very little alteri-
tion to Mrs. Bradley for three weeks
following the transfusion of blood.
Their. a week ago, when they found
her strong enough to undergo the dif-
ficult operation for the removal of the
tumor, they were surprised to “(iii'
the great. change ihht had come over
her mind. She was happy—minaret
gay—and she laughed as she: assured
the dOctors that she. as ready for
the knife. And. strangely enough.
after the operation she rallied quick-
ly, and when her, husband asked her
what she could do she asked him to
bring her some green plants, some
ferns~plants with plenty of green
foliage. She had hated green the-
fore.
And since then she has been plan-
uing to have two green dresses made
when she leaves the hospital, and site
has spoken about the places of amuse-
ment to which she desires to go, and
seems to have acquired her husband's
happy. almost. joyous disposition. She
cannot stand the sight of sombre purv
pie now. Her mind seems to have
undergone a complete revolution since
her husband's blood was transfused
into her veins. and she seems to have
lost her own former mental character-
istics, and to have assumed those of
her husband.

H THE mu
Memories Regarding Lynch-
ing of a Negro
SPRINGFIELD, “1.. August 20--'I‘he
local III.IOT‘IIII'S began today the task
of overthrowing the handicap on their
efforts to fix responsibility of the re
cent riot, caused by the failure of the
coroner's inquest to hold any one ro-
spousible for the death of Scott i'iur-
ton. the negro lynched in “Black
Belt," last Saturday night. The Open
verdict of tho coroner's jury was a
blow to the hopes of the. state's attor-
ney and other officials, who saw In
it a confirmation of the suspicion that
witnesses to the rioting would fail to
recognize the loadcrs of the mob when
called upon to testify in public pro-
ceedings. (if the four witnesses upon
whom Coroner Woodruff bud depended
for the success of his first riot inquest,
only one appeared on the stand. 'I‘hut
witness displayed an unusually poor
memory, and tile.- abscncc of the other
three tirade the coroner's task futile.
This condition existed despite the. up
penis of the cmuniorclal organizations
and Governor Dcuccu that law-loving
citizens volunteer their testimony ro-
gardiug the riot and Its leaders. There
was a generous response to these up-
peals, so far as the secret grand jury
proceedings are wuccrned. but few
persons seem willing to risk the eu-
mlty of the lawless element of the
community by appearing in the open
as ilel'cndors'of the strict letter of the
law.
The grand jury went ahead with its
investigations today. but there was
considerably less enthusiasm regard-
ing its work titan was displayed two
days ago. The departure of all excluit
two regiments of the Sltllt‘ militia
caused a renewal of threats that there
Would be “something doing after the
soldiers leave," and this feeling was
reflected in the anxiety which was
manifested In all circles of the city.
in fact, a renewal f the rioting is
expected momentarly. and the ne-
groos, especially, feel that once, the
mob is started again no power of the
state can prevent the most. serious
disorders.
Only the Seventh Regiment of in-
fantry and eight troops of the state
cavalry wr-rc on active duty today.
The Second, Fifth and Third Regimen-
lal organizations broke camp, this
morning, mduclng the military force
to about 1.0th area. Not more than a
third of these wurc on active duty and
the dccrcasr- in military display was
noticeable.
This morning was almost devoid of
alarms. Some firing was heard in the
outlying eastern sections of the city,
but iii-I'vous militiamen wr-rc rcspotr

Work was resumed today at the

er. The orders of the officials of the
Miners' Union were responsible for
this, and the other miners affected by
similar conditions are expected to re-

Negro refugees continue rto leave

boring villages have in many instan-
ces refused the negroes a haven, and
most of the colored people who depart-

what time it was. Dr. Shercr replied.
“About 3 o'clock." and throwing open
his coat said. “It's all off; my watch
