A BRAVE BOATMAN.
Chief Engineer Van Horn Saves a Father
aud Son From Drowning.

Chief Engineer Van Horn Saves a Father
and Son From Drowning.
Had it not been for the bravery and self
possession of w. NJ. Van Horn, chief en-
gineer on the steamer John A. Woods, two
lives would have been lost yesterday after
noon at the mouth of Saw Mill run and the
Ohio river. The run has been greatly
swollen lately, and when it strikes the river
a very dangerous eddy is formed. 1t was
at this point that a father and son, whose
names could not be learned, were nearly
drowned. They were out on the river
on a small raft gathering drift
wood. After getting a heavy load they put
into shore, intending to land at the mouth
of the run. Mr.. Van Horn saw them and
warned them not to do so, but they did not
appear to understand and continued their
course.
When the raft got near shore it struck
the eddy, and was shot violently into a
barge which lies moored against the John
A. Woods. The bow OF the raft was swamped
under the barge, and the parties on it were
thrown under the barge, and wedged between
the bow of the raft and the bottom of the
barge. Mr.. Van Horn, who was standing
on the John A. Woods, secured graphing
hook and sprang out on the frail end of the
ra {, which was standings almost upright,
and lowering himself in the water, caught
the ,ather and son with the hook and pulled
them ont. A minute after the raft broke
and drited down the river. The rescued
persons were nearly drowned, but after
working with them they were brought to,
and lett for Pine Greek, where they said
their home was. They refused to give their
names.

NELLING TIE STOCK.
I'd Jnckman Waiting for That Theatrical
Lease to be Made.

I'd Jackman Waiting for That Theatrical
Lease to be Made.
During the whole of yesterday the execu-
tors sale of the livery stable appurtenances
of the Jackman stable was in progress, the
scenes being very animated. A large crowd
of bidders and number of the great unem-
ployed public watched the antics OF the
horsefesh and listened to the urgings of the
auctiOneer. Low prices seemed to be the
order of the day.
Mr.. Edward Jackman stated that the
stable would accept of boarding trade until
a satisfactory lease could be arranged for
theatrical purposes. Several firms and indi-
viduals are candidates for the assumption Of
impressario mantles, but no final action is
probable for few days.
George w. Ledder, a well-known theatri-
cal manager of New York, who had been in
the city for several days, left last evening
for his home. While in the city it was
rumored that he was dickering for the Jack
man property, on Penn avenue. 1t was
stated that he was acting for Randall &
Morton. The former is a we'll known man.
ager in New York, and the latter is at the
head of the Columbia Theater in Chicago
Manager Gulick, of the Bijou, said last
night that he did not believe Mr.. Ledder
had been after the property.
The limit of time of the option held by
Kohl & Middleton, of Chicago, expired
yesterday without any word being received
from the well-known showmen. There are
more rumors flying about the property than
there are as to the authorship of 'Sam''
Dawson's dog story. Every day or so a new
manager bobs up for an option. Mr.. Jack
man still sticks to his original proposition
viz: rental for ten years at $4,000 per
year. At the expiration of the ten years
lease the property is to revert to the owner.

STOPPED THE WORK.
Valley to Tear Up smIihfirId street-The
Ordinance Must be Obeyed.

Chief BIgeIow Wouldn't Allow the Pleasant
Valley to Tear Up smIrharId Street.-The
Ordinance Must be Obeyed. :
The Pleasant Valley road, with that
pleasantness which has helped to confer its
title upon the corporation, commenced early
on Wednesday morning to lay a switch at
the corner of SmithfeId street and Fifth
avenue. The men worked merrilv. and
cobblestones, blocks and derricks few
around in lively style until shortly after
A. M, when Chief Bigelow, of the Depart
ment of Public Works, arrived upon the
scene.
Taking in the situation and long breath
at the same time, he could just lean against
one of the iron posts of the company, and
look with horror upon the scene regardless of
the fact that q sudden charging of the post bv
the falling Of an electric light wire might
cause vacancy in the head of department,
and settle forever the Forbes avenue paving
question.
Calling upon the contractor Mr.. Bigelow
gave directions that the street should be
placed at once in the position it stood before
the upheaVal took place. He received the
pleadings of the workmen and the contract
ors with cold indifference, which made
icicles hang from the overhead wires which
are doomed to be buried, both the quick and
the dead.
The appeal of Mr.. Graham, one of the d.
rectors of the road, early in the afternoon,
met with no response, and the workmen
were started to put things in shape again
about noon and were still busily engaged in
paving and ramming when the witching
hour Of midnight doomed forth from its
booming place over the office of the De-
partment of Public Works.
Mr.. Graham last night when asked how
the contretemps occurred said it was
through a mistake; that he supposed permis-
sion to open the street had been obtained,
but discovered the error when a little late.
He knew, of course, of the ordinance for
bidding the opening of the streets at this
time, but was utterly unconscious of any
wish to violate it, having been under the
impression that permission had been OBJ
tanned.
The old tracks will be used for some time
yet, but it is probable that the petition for
improving the facilities for travel, if made
before tearing up the pavement of the prin-
pal thoroughfare, will be granted. There is
no animosity to the company on the part of
Chief Bigelow, who simply insists upon the
ordinances governing the mutilation of the
streets in forbidden seasons being observed
Chief Bigelow went East last night on
important business connected with the de-

ing.
Ameeting of colored voters at the Eleventh
ward school house was billed for last night,
but it did not materialize to any very great
extent. Messrs. Keys, Watson and few
others discussed the state of the country in
general until about o'clock when the
stalWart form of Broadax Smith was deserted.
He remarked upon the dilatoriness of the
peoplein general, but finally led the way to an
experience meeting and one of general dis
cussion. Broadax stated that he was In
New York State the night Fort Sumter was
fired on, and saw rainbow in q clear, star
lit sky. Mr.. Richard KEYS topped this
story by relating that at the time of Lincoln's
Inauguration he, KEYS, was in Romney,
Va, and saw black rainbow. The erelators
then glared at each other for some seconds,
and let the subject drop.
Broadax then cracked his jokes for time
at the ringmaster, and finally carefully
turned the conversation into a political
channel, and someone demanded to know
by what authority Ajax Jones spoke for
colored voters after assisting to put A. II.
h0WanQ INTO the soup. BroauaX suggested
that in the absence Of the President OF the
club, Samuel Harrison, the discussion was
Improbable, but while he admitted that
white Republicans might sometimes drive
a colored voter to support Democrat, YETI
on the whole, such lapses from virtue
were to be viewed with suspicio6.
He gave it as q rule, with scarce
enough exceptions to prove it, that
when colored man must go into the Demo
cratic party, he is either drunk, a knaye or
a fool Such an indulgence might possibly
be granted with safety occasionally under
careful diagnosis.
After this desultory talk had been kept
up for about an hour, the audience grew
tired and some showed symptoms 5of going
home, when true to his record Broadax
again distinguished himself by deciding
that a motion to adjourn was not in order
until the rent of the hall had been paid and
the janitor propitiated. He said he didn't
want to hear any oratory from the man who
sang "Jesus Paid 1t ALL" and refused to
listen to anything except the clinkiHg of
nickels, and the rest of the session was spent
in discussion of ways and means to liqui-
date.
A gentleman present stated that the meet
ing had been called to discuss the political
situation, especially as 1t related to the
ward, but no specific approach
was made toward this object further than to
distribute tickets bearing the name of
Daniel Downing for constable.
