AN EXCITING RUNAWAY.
A Aorse Charges into the WOlfskill
waiting Rooms.

A large black horse which wears the
harness of servitude for the City Sprink-
ling Company distinguished himself very
notably yesterday. While engaged in
his daily labors on Second street during
the early part of the afternoon he scared,
and, breaking loose from the cart, gal
loped away to the south. He turned
down Fifth street toward the Wolf
skill depot, where his first dis
aster occurred, for he ran into
a carriage that was standing in front of
the station. This frightened him worse
than ever, and, as he was being sur
rounded on all sides, be sought q me-
dunn of escape through the waiting
room. His entry there created good
deal of excitement, which was height
ened when he stuck his head into the
ticket window and bit at Col. Jack
Reeves, who hit him on the nose with a
ticket-punch. The equine then ran into
the Arcade, where, in the attempt to stop
him Officer Rule was knocked down and
walked over, the starbearer luckily es-
Gaping without much damage. The end
was near, however, for the steed got into
the ladies' rooms, where, as there was
no outlet, he was captured. Strange to
say, throughout the length OF his wild
career no one was hurt and no property
DESTROYED.

THE POLICE COMMISSION.
They Transact Routine Business
and Adopt Some Rules.

The Mayor was five minutes late yes
terday at the meeting of the Police Com
missioners, and Captain Knox was ao-
sent on duty with the Grand Jury.
Afterthe reading of the minutes, the
Chief reported on the matter OF compen-
sation for Mrs. Watson, OF the Girls
Home, recommending that she be
granted salary for her services.
Mr.. Lindley thought that as the Coun-
Gil had already refused to pay Tor follce
Matron, there was no use IN applying 10
the Council The petition OF M. l.. Wlcks
on the matter was referred back TO him,
with the suggestion that he apply directly
to the Council.
The petition of Chares II. Lippe for
saloon license at 131 S. Main street, was
granted.
Petitions for changes of licenses from
A. Esperance to Role & Hereof, from
Louis Ackerman to Simpson q Kurze,
from Stewart & Dean to E. H. Boyd,
were granted. Theodore d. Romans COM
planned that his name was incorrectly
registered on the police list. 1t was Or
dered set right. A number of applica-
tions for positions were received and
filed. Officer Wiley asked that his name
be changed to Pond on the roster, and
the request was granted.
Commissioner Lindley offered writ
ten opinion of the City Attorney on the
matter of the application Of Section 203
OF the Charter to the matter of police ap-
pointments. This section prescribes
that all employees of the city shall be
registered voters. The City Attorney
maintains that this rule will apply to the
police force. The decision was ordered
filed.
Commissioner Lindley then offered
code of rules for the use of the police
force, which, he said, was taken for the
most part by the police authorities of
Cleveland. They included chapter of
advice to young policemen, and rules on
resuscitating people who appear to be
dead, and other convenient information.
Mr.. Lindley moved that the rules be
adopted and committee appointed to
put them in proper form and have them
printed. The motion was carried, and
the entire Board, including the Mayor,
WAS appointed the committee. The
Board then adjourned.
The rule which will cause the removal
of number of the members OF the pres
ent force is numbered So in the new
code, and reads as follows:
"No person is eligible to belong to the police
force who was not duly registered prior to the
recent city election on February 81, 1899. and
whose name does not appear on the poll books
as having voted at said election; and no man
shall be eligible as member OF the force whose
name does not appear on the poll list of the city
as having voted al the last city election prior to
the filing of application"

A CURIOUS ACCIDENT.
1t Causes the Death of Miss Pock al
Catalina.


Catalina.
The Coroner's inquest on the body of
Laura E. Pock, the young lady who was
killed last Monday morning at Santa
Catalina Island, brings out the fact that
the accident was of rather curious
order. The young lady was in tent be-
longing to M. L. PARCELS, clerk of this
city and brother of G. S. PARCELS. Mr..
PARCELS was working at some fishing
tackle which he was assisting her to get
in order. Suddenly there was the crack of
a rifle near at hand, and she threw up
arms and fell back, crying ooh! l am
shot,"
Purcells assisted her to her mothers
tent, which was short distance away,
the blood gushing from her mouth. Be-
fore they reached the tent the young
woman was dead.
In the tent next to that occupied by
Purcells there was a shooting gallery,
and Conrad Sandmiller had been clean
ing Winchester rifle. He had slipped
out the chamber and supposed that the
gun was empty. 1t appears, however,
that some one had pushed the pump for
ward, throwing a cartridge into the bar
rel, and had then put the gun
down without discharging it. Thus
it happened that after the
cartridge was taken out, one had still re.
NAMED in the gun. In handling the
weapon while he was charging it, Zand-
miller struck the hammer against the
edge of the counter and the charge was
fired. 1t went through the walls of the
two tents and entered the body OF Miss
Pock.
The jury of inquest brought in a YER
dict that Miss Laura E. Pock, II years Of
age and q native OF California, came to
her death from gunshot wound inflicted
accidentally with gun in the hands OF
Conrad Sandmiller, and while said Sand
miller was cleaning the gun.

SECOND STREET.
An Attempted Obstruction Promptly
Removed.

AeNthONCos
Quite an excitement was created on
Second street, at the corner of Main, yes
day morning, by the unusual sight of
brick building in the course of erection
in the street. By half-past eight O'Clock
large crowd had collected at that place,
and at 10 O'Clock word reached the
City Attorney and Street Superintendent
Morford that the street was being OBJ
structed. City Attorney Mcfarland d.
rected that the men engaged in construct
ing the building be arrested on charge
of obstructing the streets, and this was
done, and Colonel Morford promptly
caused his men to tear down the walls
which had already reached height of
two and half feet, and cart the bricks
and mortar to the corporation yard. AT
IL O'Clock not a vestige of the
building remained and traffic went on
as usual on the street. 1t appears that
the building which was in course of con-
struction was commenced by the order
of Mr.. II. w. Mills, who claims that he
owns sixteen feet of land from the south
line of Mr.. Newell's building which is
on the corner OF Second and Main
streets. He had started building about
12x12, starting from a point about two
feet inside the curb, and extending to
within two feet of the car tracks
on Second street where he alleges the
line of his property ends. The land was
originally owned David Anderson, now
deceased, and covered 50-foot frontage,
by a depth of $50 feet. Anderson's
house occupied part OF where Second
street now runs, for over twenty years.
The property next passed into the hands
of Baker & Bower, and the Baker Iron
Works was conducted here for a while.
The works also occupied part of the
street. w. H. Mills and M. L. Wicks
bought the property from Baker &
Bower in February, 1886. III. I. New
ell, shortly afterwards purchased from
Wicks and Mills thirty four Of
the fifty feet, and erected the
brick building which now stands at the
northwest corner of Second and Main
streets. Mr.. Newell claims that he had
an agreement with Mr.. Mills to the effect
that he was to have a perpetual right OF
way over the sixteen feet now in the
street, and that he built the sidewalk,
and had the proposed building been
permitted he would have been dam
aged. Mr.. Mills states that he has
never decided the property to the city for
street purposes, and that if it is to be
used for street the city should pay for
it. 1t was to bring the matter to an
issue that the building was started yes
terday. and the matter will be carried
into the courts. The City Attorney
claims that the land, having been used
for street purposes and improvements
made with that understanding, Mr..
Mills cannot force the city TO
pay for the land. The attempts to
have this part of the street paved have
been failures in the past on account of
the unsettled dispute as to whether or
not it belongs to the city as street.

ThesFire Commission.

that Fireman Collins owed him a bill.
and the matter WAS referred to the Chief
for settlement. w. S. Douglass, repre-
senting a patent fire extinguisher, ap-
peared"and explained the working of his
machine.

into and propose new fire lines asked for
further time, which was granted.
The Board then adjourned.
