About I'm. o'clock yesterday the pedestrians
on Third street were Mortified by one of the
most thrilling runaways of the season. The
vehicle, a two-seated rockaway, was filled with
four or five children and the driver, and the
horses became frightened in lower town,
making Third street by the most circuitous
route imaginable. In tearing along Cedar in
the direction of Third street, they were observ-
ed by pedestrian on the latter thoroughfare,
who sought to arrest their flight by daring
plunge at the horses heads The effort was
unsuccessful, however, and the gentleman was
thrown to the ground by the team, fortunately
sustaining no injury. The horses turned west
ON Third street fairly under the control of the
driver, whose skillful guidance avoided several
imminent collisions, while the spectacle was
thrilling in the extreme. The team was

the escape from an appalling disaster being al
most miraculous.
Last night noted bagnio on Fifth street,
near the city pound, was the scene of rousing
ruction. Barney Smith, the ruffian who not
long ago engaged Officer McMahon's strength,
and got term of thirty days in Jail for it. was
the genius of last nights dissertation. Full of
whisky, he entered the palace, and soon began
to abuse and even beat the poor women who
are compelled to pander to such brutes. His
violence became 30 great that the inmates OF
the house took to the street, and in loud voice
called for the police. Officer Baer heard their
cries of distress, and came to their assistance,
quickly reinforced by Capt. Clark. These two
took Barney Smith in charge, not, however
until he had exerted all his muscle to prevent
it. The brute gave both officers considerable
exercise, but finally they got him to the lock-
up. Smith is terror Of the most desperate
type, and particularly so when in liquor, which
condition he is in just whenever he can be. He
is one of those kind of men that any commu-
nifty is best off without, and some public spir-
tied person would and could confer favor,
etc. And it is coming for Barney Smith, too,
unless the desperate mends his ways, and puts
his surplus muscle to some legitimate use
