REQUIRED GREAT EFFORT BUT WAS SUCCESSFUL hild, a Son of John Tichner, Was Unmindful of Its Danger While Playing in Direct Path of Monster.

Roy Piper, the young Pennsylvania towerman. at the North Eighth street crossing is a hero. Had it not been for his quick wittedness and as quick action Thursday afternoon, the little form of Lawrence Edward Tichner, two-year-old son of John Tichner of Washington avenue would have been a shapeless blood stained mass, laying beside the Pennsylvania tracks. Young Piper was standing in the tower, manipulating the gates running across Eighth street and Washington avenue. It was about four-thirty j o'clock. A fast freight was heard ap-1 proaching from the west. Young Piper was petrified for a second by the sight which greeted his eyes. About seventy-five yards away from the tower, playing with one of the switch lights, Was little Edward Tichner. Ills little chubby hands were patting the night signals, just placed, in gleeful ecstacy. He wass carcely a foot from the track on which the giant mass of steel was bearing its cargo eastward at terrific speed. Giving his lever a sharp push to lower the gates, young Piper sprang from his position in the tower for a mad race to save the child. He sprang down tho ladder leading to the top of the tower, his heart beating at a great rate, while his face was pale bearing its determined look. Rung after rung was left behind as he worked his way down the narrow ladder. A door was jet to encounter to impede his progress. This stuck a second but by superhuman strength it was forced open and Piper began his race with the iron monster bearing down upon the laughing little boy, playing with the light. The boy was in the direct path of. the engine and entirely un mindful of his immediate danger. Piper was fifty yards from the child, the engine about two hundred. Every muscle in Piper's fcody was taught under the agonizing strain. A few more yards. The engine was rapidly gaining upon him. Would he ever reach the little boy. A few more steps and it would be all over. Again the thought would he reach the child. Yes! No! In a second more the race between the young man and, the engine would be over. It was over and the young man won, snatching the child from under the cylinder of the monster, traveling at' the rate of thirty miles an hour. Several people who had witnessed the daring rescue burst out in loud huzzahs for the gallant actions of the young man. George Young, city sanitary inspector, who witnessed the rescue, took the child to its home, where he cautioned the parents against allowing the child outside the yard. Young Piper was very modest about his actions and stated that he had seen one man killecr at the crossing, the memory of which was firmly stamped on his mind, and when he saw the child directly in front of the train he was ruled by an unalterable desire to do something and do it quick. lie said he had done nothing more than any other person would do tinder the circumstances.

"What shall we get for a Sunday5 dinner?" This is the question that will be revolved, and then revolve some more in the minds of many.

Richmond housewives. Saturday. Thfll scarcity of seasonable vegetables ami fruits makes it a very severe task to arrange a dainty meal from such pro. ducts. Potatoes, which furnish a larg per cent of the food in Richmond. ar scarce, and old potatoes especially so. The new tubers are hard to find on the local market In good quantities. These new potatoes are not of superior quality either, although retailing at 4J cents per peck. The crop of cultivated blackberries lj now reaching the "fraitle" end and lit the course of tho next three days the will be very scarce. Th wild berries, however, are now ripening, and will prolong the blackberry market a week or more. New sugar corn Is selling for cents per dozen and is of a delicious variety. Tho sale of young and hin clous roasting ears is especially goot and "many of these will undoubtedly find themselves on the Sunday table. Watermelons Good. The water melon crop was nver bt ter, the melons being shipped to Rlchi mond being of unusual sweetness. In diana grown watermelons will appta in Richmond in about ten days. IndN ana grown nutmegs or muskmclom will make their appearance in about three days. These will come from the southern part of the state. Home grown tomatoes are now be ing sold. This crop Is about thrM weeks later than Is ordinarily the rase. The lateness of the crop this year, af fords food for much speculation in th weather line and the retailers and commission men of this city havs been "up in the air" during the larger part of the summer, simply bevausa it has been a very difficult task fof them to plan and make arrangements for the Incomlnff vegetables and otbe provision stuffs. Live Stock Strong. The live stock market is strong a the present time. Hogs are not belntf shipped in any large numbers, and a the result, prices are gradually rising. The same circumstances, which wer attributed as the cause for the prevail ing high prices of hogs last year, it 14 said, will again this year Influence tha quotations. Last year hog prices began to rise about this season of thi year and the quotations kept on until hogs hal .far passed the seven cent fig. ure. Cholera, too, made the animal scarce. Cholera this year Is killing off large numbers of the animals la this county and over the state. Notwithstanding the cooler days o( tho past week, local meat dealer state that the sale of fresh meats has not increased to any extent over th warmer weather sales, the demand remaining very slow. - Grain Market Quiet. The grain and wagon markets ara affording but little excitement to thl Richmond market situation. Wheat is holding Its own at eighty-five cents, corn, fifty-five, and oats, forty-flvo cents per bushel. It is said that not withstanding there will be large quantities of grain sold in Richmond, it will not materially affect the grain quota tlons. The Inferior quality of wheat i given as the reason the quotations on. that cereal will remain In the direction of the deep blue sky. The wagon market Is very qnfet. The farmers are in the midst of their harvest and but little will be hauled to Richmond until the larger part o the harvest Is completed. Early threshing is now well under way. Local wagon market men expect a good influx of feed materials in about tea days. Chamberlain's Colic. Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, Better ThJn Three Doctors. "Three years ago we had three doctors with our little boy and everything that they could do seemed In vain. At last when all hope seemed to be gone we began using Chamberlain's Colic.
