BOAT THAT DOES NOT WANT SToPPING.-A num-
ber OF gentlemen were taken by surprise yesterday
morning by the prompt action OF the captain OF
the John A. Warner In starting his boat from the
az papers Su ar rev
ceved at Beverly station, some half mile from the
boat landing, at 20 miHutes past o'clock, giving the
carriers ten minutes to convey them across the
town. This would be quite sufficient IL the person
having them in charge was not continually stopped
get hold Of the papers in advance of others thus
delaying the boat, whose time OF departure is ~
O'Clock. Captain Cone who is business man. and
prompt in all his movements has frequently pro-
tested against this practice in his usual mild and
gentlemanly manner, but all to no effect; His pa
tience having become exhausted at last, he has de-
termned to try another eXpedient, and not suffer
large majority OF his passengers to be delayed in
getting to their places OF business by the few incon
siderate at Beverly 1t is pleasant to know that
one OF the gentlemen who were left standing upon
the landing as the Warner steamed OFF took the
matter in good part, and quietly sat down under the
shade OF the trees to enjoy the perusal OF their
papers, resolved not to be caught IN that trap again.
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. 10 o'clock last evening Po-
licemen Townsend and Cody, of the Third district,
found a man lying on the pavement In Lear street
in an insensble condition The officers at once pro-
cured stretcher and conveyed the man TO the
by young physician, who gave them to understand
that he had charge for the night that the case was
merely OF drunkenness, and that 1t could not be
admitted. The officers plead the circumstances,
and asserted, from their own knowledge, that the
sufferer was not intoxicated; but to no effect The
will OF this young Esculapius was law, and conse-
quently the officers were obliged to carry the man
10 the IllTu ulbLIlcb bIdtOH-HOuHe, where d. Auou
was called in and at once pronounced it a severe
OF sunstroke, recommending that the
victim should be taken to the hospital at once.
Again the officers proceeded to the hospital, where
they met DR.. Longstreth, to whom they related the
circumstances. The Doctor Immediately ordered
the man TO be conveyed TO ward where he now
lies The action of this young man in this case is
deserving OF immediate attention, ana it seems TO US
that the hospital authorities should at see that
competent persons are left In charge and not mere
parchment physicians, who cannos tell case OF
sunstroke from drunkenness, as In many instances
delay OF twenty minutes might prove fatal
DESCENT UPON DIsREPUTABLE HoUsE.-Last
hight Lieutenant Brurein, with squad OF Ofiicers,
made descent upon the house No. 81 Julianna
street, kept by Mrs. Partung, where high revel
was being held and arrested eighteen OF the in
mates ten OF whom were girls, whose ages range
from twelve to eighteen, and eight men, some OF
them OF respectable families. Amongst them was
an ex-member OF the Legislature and well-known
physician. The latter rendered TO the onicers his
gold watch and chain 10 be allowed TO go free, but
the brlbe was not accepted. The whole party were
taken before Alderman Toland, who held them In
bail to answer.
