Elephants Running Amuok.

CHICAGO, May 9, 1ss9.-Last night two
of Grenier's elephants escaped from the
quarters at the corner of Ann and Ran
dolph streets, and for three hours made
life a burden to the citizens residing be-
tween Ann street apd Garfield Park.
Their keepers used every means in their
power to check the excited beasts in their
flight for liberty, but were unsuccessful
until they reached Garfield Park, The
elephants stamped horses, frightened
women and children, and made pedes-
TRANS in general hustle to get out of their
way. Buggies were turned over, cabs
brushed aside, trees shaken to their roots
and window panes ratified as the elephants
madly rushed through the streets to Gar
field Park, where they were captured
shortly after one O'Clock this morning by
their keepers, who had been assisted by
the West Side police. There was no great
damage done save to shrubbery and flow
ers in Union and Garfield Parks. These
were badly trampled down.

THE NEWS OF HOBOKEN.
Nc Schools for the ChiIdren-A Bowling
Tournament.

"
No Schools for the ChiIdren-A Bowling
Tournament.
The report of President Hess, OF the
Board of Education, informs the Coun-
Gil clearly and distinctly that some
/ steps have to be taken Immediately to
provide accommodation for the 1000
children who cannot get into school at
| all, or have to be content with half a
days tuition. Hoboken is a peculiarly
prolific city, and children can't be pre-
vented from growing up to school age
lust because the Board has had to
suspend its usefulness owing to black OF
school DON
1t has been proposed that the School
Trustees hire q house, or perhaps two,
and employ teachers for the children
there until some permanent home is
provided for them. To build a school
house and get it fit for occupation
nearly six months must elapse, and
during that time the horde of I'M
taught children will be considerably
increased. Meanwhile children and
parents suffer an injustice. The latter
pay heavy taxes for the education of
their children, but they get no benefit.
For the children the present condition
of affairs is anything but salutary.
They are not of sufficient age to work.
Time hangs heavily on their hands
and they must do something. Unless
some steps are taken Immediately the
uneducated class of young loafers will
be a serious source of danger.

Delinquents Escaped the Spectator.
Town Treasurer Nolan sold over
$50, 900 worth of West Hoboken prop
erty for unpaid taxes yesterday after
noon. The sale, as the readers of THE
JERSEY Cry News may remember,
was postponed a month ago owing to
the absence of bidders.
Spectator Ogden, whose success in
Union Hill had led him to cast
covetous eyes on West Hoboken pro-
perty, had intended to buy up all that
was offered, and delinquent tax
payers were stirred up about it.
Tuesday afternoon he was speaking
to Councilman Finnegan and an
nounced his intention of being pres
ent.
When the time came, however, he
failed to appear, and Treasurer Nolan
went through the same old farce of
buying up the property on behalf of
the town.

SHOT DOWN ON THE STREET.
W. T.. Hawkins Attempts to Kill +. H.
OgIe in Salem.

SALEM (Or), May 1st.--This city was startled
this evening at SO clock by the report of four
pistol shots fired IN quick succession, and were
Mortified to find that +. II. Ogle, young mar
RED man, well and popularity known in this
county and Linn, had been shot very danger
ously. Ogle was in company with j. FL. Nc
Nary, Deputy County Recorder, and was walk
ing on the street-car track on Commercial street,
near State. when he was met by w. L. Hawkins,
who remarked, 81 hear you have been talking
about me again." and Immediately pulled his
revolver and commenced firing, shooting four
times. Oge ran across the street to the side
walk, where he met Hugh Thompson, and stag
gered toward him with the exclamation. Pm
shot,
Thompson and VIM. J. Clarke assisted him to
Gibson 4 Singleton's drug store. He was very
weak and could scarcely speak, showing that
something was wrong in the lungs and throat.
Drs. W. H. Byrd and J. n. Smith were imme-
diately summoned, and they found but one
wound. The bullet had struck the clavice III
front of the left shoulder, breaking the bone
and going inside. 1t is impossible yet to tell
the extent of the injury, but it may prove fatal.
The patient is splitting blood, and coughs as
though his left lung was clogged with blood.
Policeman Lake ran immediately to the scene
of the shooting, but in the thick smoke could
not discover who did it. He saw Hawkins on
the sidewalk and caught him. and asked him If
he did the shooting. Hawkins answered: - No,
the fellow who did the shooting just ran down
She street"
The policeman then let him go. In a short
time however he was captured by Lake and
Sheriff Croisan ana lodged IN the County jail.
The cause OF the shooting IS SAID TO be private
quarrel between them. Hawkins worked for
0gie for some time, quitting last December, and
Ogle has been claiming that he was dishonest
and had stolen from him. Ogle, who lives on q
large farm near Lebanon, came here this morn
ing with his wife, who is a niece OF Dr.. Horace
W. Cox, and it appears told some of Hawkins
friends that the latter had stolen from him.
This is supposed to have led to the shooting.
Hawkins was born in Portland and is 80 years
old, unmarried and was formerly in the drug
business in this city.
McNary, who was with Ogle and is close
friend, says that Ogle was not expecting the
occurrence and had no weapon. Hawkins was
seen in jail by Salesman reporter just now and
he declines TO make any statement except that
he shot in self defense; that Ogle tried TO pull a
gun. No firearm has been found on Ogle and
Hawkins pistol shows four shots fired the
number heard by those close by.
