DENNIS McCAKTHY's DEATH.
Further Particulars of the Recent Sa
Accident on the MarysyiiIe Road

Further Particulars of the Recent Sad
Accident on the MarysviIle Road.
j. z. Williams, who owns large ranch
on the Marysville road, near the Twelve
mile House, was in the city yesterday, and
furnished some further particulars of the
death of Dennis Mccarthy on Friday last.
His account of the sad accident is as fol-
lows: Mccarthy came out from the East
to visit his sister, Mrs. Fitzsimmons, at the
Twelve-mile House. She and | persuaded
him to stay during the summer and see
how he liked the climate, and he concluded
to stay until fall He came To my place TO
help me for a few weeks On Fridav last
he came to the city for a load of barley, and
the first seen of him on his way back was
at Coburn's place, about three miles from
my place. Some men at work there saw
him get off the wagon and drive the team
through the gate. He apparently could
not close the gate, but leaned over against
it and beckoned to the men. They did not
go TO him for an hour.
Seeing that the team was still standing
there in the road, one of the three men
said he would go and see Whist was the
matter. When he got there he found Nc
earthly lying under the wagon. He wss
conscious, and told the man that he fell of
the wagon and that both wheels had passed
over his chest. His eyes were so swollen
by this time that he could not see to drive
the team any further. The man got him
on the wagon and started for my place,
which was about three miles away. When
he got on my place he got mired down in
new road which | had been making and
had to walk to the house, about three
quarters of mile, to get assistance. Twas
not at home at the time. but the cook and
another man went and helped and they
finally got to the house with Mccarthy.
When | got home l saw that he was badly
hurt. and went for his sister He told me
that he was asleep and fell eff the wagon
and that both wheels ran over him.
THE bones in his chest were all broken,
and you could hear them rattle when he
was moved. The road is very rough, and
as he bad to go slowly he must have
dropped asleep while sitting on the front of
the wagon. on the sacks. and going INTO
chuck-hole be was probably thrown off in
front of the wheels. He was conscious up
TO the time of his death, which occurred at
midnight

Coast where l always feel ct home This

we left the East, to reach this city, with its

A LIVELY RATTLE.
Attorney Estabrook and Officer Ash
Have Tilt in the Police Court.

Attorney Estabrook and officer Ash
Have a Tiit in the Police Court.
For some time past bad blood has ex-
listed between Policeman Robert Ash and
Frank Estabrook. who practices before the
Police Court. The latter appeared in that
Court yesterday in case in which Ash was
the complaining witness. Estabrook wanted
a continuance and Ash demurred against
being compelled to dance attendance in
Court daily to satisfy the wbims of a
" snide lawyer" or shyster,' or some
thing to that effect.
Estabrook left the Court, but soon re-
turned and, in arguing motion for bail
for his client, launched forth into violent
abuse of the officer, to whom he applied
various opprobrious epithets. He was or
dered under arrest by the Court, but subse-
quently released.
Estabrook is the party who, couple of
years ago, was before Justice Post, charged
by E. w. Christy of Folsom with assault.
He was & newcomer, right from New
Mexico, and in giving his testimony made
frequent reference to his gun" which
was then a strange term for pistol " in
these parts, and in reply to the Court, ex-
planned that pistols were called guns where
he came from. The incident gave him the
soubri9uet of q the cowboy attorney"

"English as She is Wrote. /,

In certain school in this State the fol-
lowing sentences were handed in last sea-
son by pupils working in "Swinton's Word
Analysis" The writer states that in every
instance the words were explained and, as
she supposed, fully understood before the
class took their seats the preceding day ;
also, that the pupils are not duller than
ordinary, but that two, who are responsible
for the worst blunders, excel in mathe-
mates:
Bivalve-Folding door. The two fami-
lies we're separated only by bivalve.
Carnivorous-The iaguar is the strongest
animal of the cd7ndtion tribet
Cadence-Falling of the voice. Mr..
Jones had cadence, so he could not sing.
Some pupils can cadence more than others.
Binary-Two by two. The band walked
binary.
Aptitude-Fitpess. That young mans
clothes were very aptitude.
Visionary-Place where visions are kept.
Washington and his patriarchs were
unanimity.

ADJUSTMENTS.

The Grismer-Davies troupe opened to a
good house at the Metropolitan Theater last
evening in Clay Greenes melodrama
" Forgiven" The company is nicely
balanced and capable one. and does the
work cut out for it WELL Of Mr.. Gr;smer
and Phoebe Davies the theater. going public
is well informed as to their capacity and
method. They were warmly received, and
were faithful and effective in the parts as
sumed. Bat the roles do not afford them
the opportunities for such strong dramatic
work as several other plays in which they
have appeared here. Mr.. Hatch as Peabody.
a Western gambler. was decidedly the most
original character in the cast, and his rem
dering of the part was a skillful creation
The play, which is one of not improbable
situations, deals with the rude civilization
of the border. and the life and trials of a
class ostracized by society. 1t is sensa-
tional and romantic enough to please the
lover of that order of drama. 1t makes no
special appeal to the intelligence. but an
almost irritating one to the sense of justice.
The staging of the play was excellent. The
same piece tonight.

BARE FISTS.
Two Fierce and Gioveless Fights on Last
Sunday Morning.

sunday Morning.
At an early hour on Sunday morning,
when pious people were beginning to think
of preparing for church, q couple of youths,
named respectively Brady and Walk, who
pride themselves on their fstic abilities
probably because they have little else to
pride themselves upcn), met in vacant lot
on Tenth and E streets for bare knuckle
fight to finish. They went at it with
total disregard of all rules of the ring, or
decency, and hammered one another. it is
said, for two long hours. Finally Brady
hit Walk blow on the neck that put him
to sleep, much to the surprise of the lat
ter's friends, who are talking of again pit
ting him against the victor.
A rough-and-tumble fight took place at
Tenth and K streets on Saturday night
about $50 o'clock, the participants in which
battered and gouged one another until the
people Whereabouts became weary Of the
disturbance and separated them.
About ? o'clock on Sunday morning
George Cannon and Jack Leonard met on
the river front, between X and L streets, to
settle dispute as to their relative merits
as sloggers. They went at it and fought
viciously for twenty-five minutes, when
Leonard was sent to the co bibles and failed
to respond to another challeng to put up
his props.

STRANGE CASE,
Officer Frazee suspended-He Denies the
Charge Against Him.

!,

had somehow allowed himself TO
indulge too freely in the flowing
bowl, and promptly ordered his suspension
pending an investigation. This will not
be had for some days, owing to the Mayors
absence from the city. In the meantime
Nelson Eidred will occupy Frazee's beat
Chief Lee has accordingly posted notice
at the police station, calling the attention
of the officers to Section 2 of the Police
Regulations in regard TO policemen being
intoxicated while on duty
1t is but just to officer Frazee. who has
had the reputation for years Of being one
of the very best and steadiest men on the
police force, to say that he claims to have
been foully dealt with. He is convinced
that he was drugged and that his saddle
was tempered with, and there are circum-
stances which give color to his statements.
He has been suspended without a hearing
so far, and the public should not form an
opinion until he has had chance TO be
heard in his defense.
