MEAD is employed by Mathews & Poucher, hardware dealers in Exchange street, and was driving a delivery wagon in Main street west.

In front of No. 189 Main street west the wagon swayed far enough to come into collision with a trolley standard. The whiffletree was broken, and the horse was freed from the thrills. MEAD was thrown to the pavement, striking in such a manner that he became unconscious. He was picked up by pedestrians, a hurry call was sent to the General Hospital, and he was taken there.
The horse, once free, crossed the street and leaped into the front window of the store of Louis M. MYERS, at No. 190 Main street west. The display of shoes was tossed in every direction, and the railing back of it broken down. Furniture in the salesroom was upset and the horse jammed itself into a narrow aisle. Traffic Officer Charles LAWRENCE ran into the store and caught the horse by the bridle. He managed to calm the animal and led it out. The horse was cut about the legs and body, and had to be treated by a veterinary.
At the General Hospital it was found that MEAD had received a broken right clavicle and a cut over the left eye. He recovered consciousness when he was taken to the hospital in the ambulance.

EDUCATION A PREVENTIVE

Is Large Factor in Lowering Fire Loss, R. B. Woodward Writes
Roland B. WOODWARD, secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, tells a story of fire prevention in Rochester in the current issue of the American City. He says that in 1904 the fire loss in this city was $3,000.000, in 1910 it was $8000.000, and in 1914 $454,000. While the fire loss, he writes, is not remarkable in smallness for a city like Rochester the decrease in the last ten years is exceptional.
Mr. WOODWARD believes that education may prove the final factor in the solution of the fire loss problem, in that children may be educated to act as instinctively for fire prevention as for self- preservation. Mayor EDGERTON, Fire Chief LITTLE, former Commissioner OWEN, the Rochester Fire Department and the Board of Education are commended in Mr. WOODWARD'S article.

Percy ALLORD had work for a short time, but lost it. Although he had complied with the first requirement of the immigration people, and registered, he had neglected to pay them any further attention, which was to his disadvantage.

CONVICTS SHOULD BE PAID

Should Support Themselves and Families, Says Donald Lowrie.
Daniel LOWRIE, secretary to Warden Thomas Mort OSBORNE, of Sing Sing prison, in an address before the Woman's City Club yesterday at the Seneca Hotel advocated that all convicts be paid by the state for their labor, that they may support their families, and that murderers be forced to toil till they die and the families of the victims receive the returns from their labor.
The speaker said he believed that convict labor should build the forthcoming transcontinental highway and that criminals make shoes, clothing and implements for these laborers. He branded the present system as stupid because it made a man a burden upon society the moment he committed a crime. Prisoners should be paid for their labor at the same scale of wages they would earn at similar work in free life, he declared.

A DAY FOR YOUNG LOVE

To-morrow the same scene will be re-enacted. This is St. Valentine's Day, but it will be celebrated in the public schools to-morrow afternoon, and the little girl with the blonde curls and the coy smile will receive an arm load of wishy-washy doggerel that to her is Tennysonian verse. Anyway, she is a mercenary creature, and the price-mark on the upper corner means as much to her as the hieroglyphics on the case of ivory boudoir instruments sent to her elder sister with the price tag left on with planned carelessness, by her sister's Lothario.
Valentine merchants said yesterday that the public this season had practically forsaken comic creations, and that the etchings of bewigged persons of an olden day seemed to touch a popular chord. The garish inventions of childhood still are on the counters, however.
   For 2 cents you can get this:
   If all the world was violets blue
   And all the rain were sparkling dew,
   It would not be a gift too rare
   To offer you, my maiden fair.

REGARDED AS A CALAMITY

Women Dread the Coming of the First Gray Hairs
To thousands of women the appearance of the first gray hair means the coming of the winter of life — for it cannot be denied that when a woman's hair begins to turn she is regarded as "getting along in years" at least, if not old. Many women dislike to resort to the use of a dye and it is no longer necessary for them to do so as a most excellent hair tonic — The Excelsior — has been discovered which not only keeps the coming gray hairs in check but actually changes to their original shade the few that may already have appeared. The Excelsior is a most valuable addition to the toilet table accessories. The Monte Christo toilet preparations, creams, face powders, etc., are also becoming so well known that these manufacturing chemists of high reputation are compelled to arrange added facilities to meet the demand for their peerless compounds.

STEELE will draw to-morrow a panel of 150 veniremen, from whom it is expected the jury will be selected.
RAMSDEN's defense will be emotional insanity. It will be claimed that revelations made to RAMSDEN by his wife and wrongdoing by her covering a long period so preyed on his mind that when he met his wife and she refused to go with him his mental equilibrium was destroyed and the killing followed. It will be claimed that RAMSDEN'S wife took a trip through Massachusetts with a young lawyer.
RAMSDEN is said to be in poor health at the jail. He has heart trouble.

Believing That Her Husband No Longer Loves Her,
Former West Rush Girl Takes Mercury Tablets

Pittsburg, Feb. 14 - Laboring under an hallucination that her husband no longer loved her, Mrs. Samuel F. McELROY, 25 years old, of No. 420 South Dithridge street, a bride of five months, attempted to commit suicide on the steps of the Phipps Conservatory in Schenley Park shortly after noon to-day, by swallowing several bichloride of mercury tablets. A crowd of persons in the park saw the woman rise from a sitting posture and stagger against the building and notified the police who removed her to the Homeopathic Hospital, where it is said her condition is critical.
Mrs. McELROY came to Pittsburgh from West Rush, a suburb of Rochester, N. Y., in search of employment. She was employed in a hair dressing parlor in the Lyceum building and went to the rooming house of Samuel W. McELROY, in South Dithridge street to live. There she met and fell in love with Samuel F. McELROY and their marriage followed in a few months. Their happiness was short lived because their domestic life had been continually disrupted by religious differences. Many quarrels resulted and Mrs. McELROY imagined her husband did not love her, because, as she said, he did not show his love enough.
Mrs. McELROY went to her home in West Rush last Wednesday on a visit and returned home Saturday, acting strangely. This morning she arose early and started for church. Instead she went to Schenley Park, and after wandering through the park several hours summing up courage for her act, she went to the conservation; sat on the steps a few minutes, then suddenly swallowed the tablets.
At the McELROY home this evening it was said Mrs. McELROY had been despondent for some time over her domestic troubles and had often threatened to end her life. Before her marriage Mrs. McELROY was Miss Agnes O'HARA.

GIRL WIFE DIED OF GRIEF

Letter from Honolulu Relates - He Lived Here, Says Writer
A tale of pathos is told in a letter written from Honolulu to the Democrat and Chronicle by Joseph P. COOKE, who says he is a Rochester man, but has not been here in three years. According to the communication, COOKE recently received his honorable discharge from the United States army.
Arriving at Honolulu on the steamship Venture, from San Francisco, in expecta- (line unreadable) writes of finding his wife awaiting him at the dock, he was disappointed. He had assured her only two weeks before, when he sailed away to get his discharge, he relates that he would take the next boat back "to her and to the job that had been promised him."
Within a few minutes after he landed, COOKE writes, he was told "that his girl wife, brooding over the sneers of her neighbors that she was a deserted fool, and half crazed at the advise given her to make away with the baby before it could become a burden upon her, because it would never see its father, had died of a broken heart six days before- just after he had sailed from the Golden Gate on his return  - taking her unborn baby into the grave with her.
COOKE writes that he is broken-hearted at the loss of his wife, and grieved deeply because she died having lost her trust in him. He recounts that until recently he was a private stationed at Fort Ruger and that he "is spoken highly of by his comrades, who are indignant at the gossip." The letter id dated January 25th.

TO IMPROVE QUALITY OF GENEVA MILK

Experiment Station and Board of Health Co-operate
Geneva, Feb. 14 - Acting upon the suggestion advanced at a recent meeting of the Board of Health, it has been decided that through a joint action of the Board of Health and the Experiment Station a movement has been launched which it is hoped will eventually further improve the quality of the milk supply of the city and possibly may secure for the producers an increased price for their milk in proportion to its quality.
The means, which it is hoped will bring about this end, is a bacteriological study of the milk supply of the city that is being made by the Experiment Station with the approval of the Board of Health. Dr. Robert S. BREED, the dairy expert at the station, is in charge of the work and has conferred with Health Officer Dr. Charles D. McCARTHY.
The purpose of the study, as far as the Experiment Station is concerned, is to secure an opportunity to test out, in a practical way, the direct microscopic method of determining the amount of bacteria in milk. This new method was advocated last year by Dr. BREED as a substitute for the so-called "plate technique" which heretofore has been generally used.
The dairy companies are interested in the work as it will provide them with data, relating to the quality of the milk that they receive from the producers, while the producers are interested through the phase of the proposition that they may secure an increased compensation on the basis of quality.

Night Officer BRIGNALL and Dr. L. W. BELLOWS were summoned and took the body to the undertaking rooms of Genung and Son. The body was still warm when found, and death was attributed to heart disease.
