BRUNO FLEES FROM A MOB.
The Comedian Almost Brings About 4
Tragedy.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 1O.-A man with a
pale and haggard face raj for his life along
Bush street this evening. A bowling mob
OF Infatuated people. headed by one who had
murder in his eye, flew after him, brandisll-
ing sticks and pistols and crying, kill the
viIlian!' Hang him. "String him to the
nearest lamp-post!!" "Shoot him!"
The white faced fugitive was Gus Bruno,
the comedian, who plays the dude in
Mestayer's 1--WE, Us & Co. combination.
With flying feet he tried to escape from the
Infatuated father, who headed the p%ursuers,
Swiftly he ran until he reached a high wal
that surrounds a private residence on Bush
street. He scaled the fence with an agility
born of fright, and %crouching in the shrub.
berry of the garden where he found himself,
he listened to the shouts of menace from
his pursuers.
The police came up, and forced back the
furious crowd from around the wall and
arrested Bruno. Even with the police
around him men shook their fists In his
lace and shouted kill him." To save him
the police put Bruno in a hack. Two en-
tered it, another guarded the box and they
drove him to the City Prison.
The man who led the chase was A. kron
berg, a highly respectable, well-to-do mar
who has a beautiful little girl named Eta,
whose form is ripper than the twelve years
that have passed over her curly head would
warrant. Kronberg saw Bruno loafins
around his house yesterday. He has beer
already suspicious of Bruno's intentions
toward his daughter and a pretty little
playmate of her age, and when he saw
Bruno to-day, he charged him with trying
to wreck his innocent child's life.
Bruno struck him in the face with a light
cane. A crowd gathered. The report o
the reason of the dispute spread. Mel
were already int1amed by the reports OF thu
Pail Mall Gazette's exposure of Londor
| ~wickedness, and when they heard kron
berg renew his charge against Bruno they
| lost ~self-control and wanted to lynch him
| Powerless before their rage, Bruno took tt
! his heels and found safety only when thu
| police guarded him.
| In the police court Kronberg swore tina
Bruno had thrice tried to ~inveigle Eta ane
her playmate into his rooms. The prose
cution could prove no criminal intent
Bruno was fined S25 Tor striking Kronberl
! with his cane. He paid it and hurried on
| of town, protesting that his only purpos'
in ~coaxiug the little girls to him was to CIV
| them tickets to the theater.
There is no doubt that Bruno would hav'
been lynched if the police had not pro
tected him. The excitement in town !
frightful and every father seems to thlnl
that Bruno would have met his deserts hat
he been swung to a lamp post.

LYNCHED AT DAWN.
Maryland Vistlantes swing a Negro From
q Tree.

BALTIMORE, July Boulevard Cooper,
the young negro who maltreated Miss Katie
Gray on April End last and was condemned
to death, was hanged at an early hour this
morning by lynchers at Towson jail.
The whole affair was a parody on justice
and could nave occurred in few places except
Maryland. A masked nan the night pre-
vious gave Sheriff Knight an intimatiOn Of
| what was to come by knocking on his door
and telling him to keep his family away
from the Jail the rest OF the night.
Although one of the best equipped and ef-
ficent police forces in the country was in
Baltimore. only a few miles distant, and
the town itself boasts OF several companies
OF State troops, and there are railway and
telegraph connections with this city, no ef-
fort to protect the prisoner was made, and
| at dawn this morning crowd OF fifty mask
ed men appeared before the Jail.
They battered in the doors, o the
trembling wretch to q tree near by and
hanged him without any ado. Cooper re-
manned suspended until 10 o'clock this
morning before being cut down. The lynch
ers are generally known, but no attempt to
| apprehend them will be made.
The immediate cause of lynching was the
fear that the gallows might be cheated OF
it's due, as it had been announced that the
colored beneficial societies OF Baltimore
were getting up a fund by subscription to
carry Cooper's case to the Supreme Court OF
the United States on a writ OF error.
