He was for merly in the regular army, and was on the staff of General Hawkins in Cuba and China. He returned from China by way of Gibraltar, making the tour of the world. While at Tampa he was drilling his company one day and was asked some questions by a bystander in citizen's clothes. Kenan aswered rather, abruptly, not relishing being interviewed while drilling. Later, an orderly told him he was wanted at General Klein's quarters, and upon arriving there he recognized the general as the man who had asked bim the questions on the parade ground. He began rather rapid mental calculations to think whether he had said anything to de serve reprimand. Bat General Klein passed it all off as a joke." LOCAL DOTS.

At the Risk of Probsbly Fatal Isjsry Jos tlce Borsessaia Stepped a Rosswsy sod Saved Others from Harm. A runaway occurred yesterday morning on Princess street which would have likely had a serious end ing but for the quick and brave action of Justice G. W. Bornemann. At the risk of serious, and perhaps fatal in jury to himself, he stopped a runaway horse attached to a surrey, injwbich were Mrs. P. L. Bridgers and a negro driver. About 11 o'clock yesterday morning, near the intersection of Front and Princess streets, a portion of the horse's harness was broken, and at the same time the animal became fright ened and ran frantically up Princess street. The driver of the surrey was powerless, as he had no way to con trol the animal. Mrs. P. L. Bridgers was on the rear seat of the vehicle at the time, but of course, had no way of escaping without the risk of being killed. She acted with perfect judg ment and calmly kept her seat. By the time the horse reached Sec ond street he was going at a mad pace, while the surrey was swaying and in constant danger of turning over or coming in violent contact with some object. At the time Justice Bornemann and two friends were walking down the street At a glance he took in the situation and acted promptly and he roically. As the horse ran up just opposite Plummer's confectionery es tablishment Justice Bornemann jump ed In his path and made a grab for the bridal near the bit Fortunately he caught it or the horse would have trampled upon him. The animal, feel ing the hold Ion the bridle, commenc ed to rear and plunge, lifting Justice Bornemann entirely clear of the ground. The justice bravely stuck to his hold and, after being tossed around in the air for several seconds, brought the animal to his haunches and into submission. In the meantime. Judge E. K. Bryan and A. J. Marshall, Esq., had hurried to the scene and assisted Mrs. Bridgers, who was still cool, to alight from the vehicle. Justice Bornemann received several painful bruises as the result of his brave act. It was a wonder he was not seriously injured, as the horse, in his frantic efforts to loosen himself from the justice's grip, tore himself completely out of the shafts and almost away from the vehicle.
