A LUCKY DEFENDANT.
May Gibson's Case Comes to a
Surprising Termination.
A JUSTICE SUED FOR DAMAGES.
James McDermott Demands Sio. 900 for
False Imprisonment-A Hotel
Asked to Pay for Lost Goods.

To the surprise of nearly every person
IN court and 10 that of May Gibson espe-
cialiy4 when her case was called for trial in
Judge Humes' court yesterday. the mis-
sing witness. Scott, was at hand ready to
testify as TO how he was robbed by May
Gibson at her place in Whitechapel two
months ago. She seemed very Respondent
on seeing Scott and tried TO have the case
continued. but Judge Humes refused her
application.
There was no occasion for continuance,
however, for she was acquitted. There were
some peculiar features in the case and the
woman's acquittal might almost be attri-
buted TO some mysterious power. Herman
Scott, the man May Gibson was charged
with robbing, swore positively that she
had stolen Sli5 from his pockets. Scott
was supposed TO have been paid by her TO
leave the country, but he had been put
out of the reach of the woman's influence
and concealed by Sheriff Woolery where
he could not be tempered with.
b. +. Anderson, who was with Scott on
the night of the robbery, testified in the
case and his evidence seemed TO favor the
defendant.
Officer :. G. Corbett, who was on the
Whiteehapel beat, was asked to testify, but
said the woman was innocent and his
testimony would do the state more harm
than good.
The woman was acquitted, and then
came contest for the 500 cash bail she
bad on deposit with the clerk of the court.
Her attorney wanted his fee, and took
charge of the 500 until the fee was paid.

STIR CAUSED BY A STEER.
After Running Amuck in a Crowd He
Is Shot.

A wild steer on the water front yester-
day afternoon caused temporary bedlam
among pedestrians and commission mer-
chants. He was one Of number of
bovines which broke out of corral at the
Northern Pacific stock yards, and losing
himself from the rest he became Infatuated
and wanted TO gore everybody and every
thing He chased crowds right and left,
prodding at lady with his horns at the
corner of Front and Madison street
Leaving the lady terribly frightened. but
not seriously injured, he tore down Madi-
son street 10 West again, where he caught
an unsuspecting man on his horns and
threw him TO the ground. Luckily the
man was not hurt and the street was soon
cleared of pedestrians, who had dashed
trembling into stores, up side staIrways
and down under convenient wharves. The
steer had everything his own way then
and was amusing himself by smash
ing Up crates of eggs in front of
wholesale houses, when Officer Ramage
hoped along and sent four bullets into
his heaving body. The bullets did not
land in the right place, however, and the
steer only stormed around worse than
ever and became more Infatuated. Henry
Van Houten finally put stop TO his steer
ships playful gambols by sending ball
crashing into his brain.

prices were charged for admission.
Il am glad TO say 10 strangers when
they come here said another. that we
have a reputable theater in the city where

SacQue.

SdCqu6.
Judge Osborn's court was busy yester-
day with the case of C. II. Knox and wife
against o. \. Morse & Son, proprietors of
the Arlington hotel, for S407 for goods lost
while Knox and his wife were guests at
the hotel. 1t is an old case that has been
in court for many months, and dates back
to April, 1889, when Mr. and Mrs. Knox
took room at the Arlington. They were
there for over two months, and on return
ing TO their room at II o'clock one night
found that the place had been ransacked
and seaiskin sacque and a lot of jewelry
had been stolen during their absence.
Knox demanded S407 payment for the
things stolen, but the MorSes refused and
claimed that they were not liable for the
goods stolen; that they are not innkeep-
ers, but only clearinghouse proprietors.
The testimony in the case is all in, and
the case will go TO the jury this morning.

GAVE 1T HIS HERITAGE.

John Threnhauser, of tho Southside, Gives
DIR. Arnholdt an Inheritance He Re-
ceived From Germany, for the Hospital
subscriptions Being Received.
"The little rub the Southside Hospital got
a short time ago has done it some good. -
said DIR. Arnhold last evening. SIT has
stirred the people up considerably, and l
think we shall soon be on our feet The
committee from the hospital is at Harris
burg at present, with petitions and argu-
ments, and expects to be able to get an ap-
preparation. 1 was out last week making a
few calls on various liquor dealers, asking
for contributions to help US along in our
work, and accidentally met John Threu-
hauser, of the Twetth ward. Upon telling
him what was doing he said: Don't go to
nv place, doctor, but will do this for you.
NV father died some time ago i'll Germany
and left me something. 1 have been noti-
fed several times to send for it, but would
not bother about it. They have sent
it to me through Alderman Hartman,
and I am on my way up there to
to get it. 1 don't know how much there is,
but YOU can have it all for the hospital, and
welcome. l think it Is a good cause and
should be helped along
1.-THE next day Mr.. Threnhauser walked
into my Office and laid down S25. There,
DOCTOR said he, there it is; don't be disap-
pointed with the amount, but told you be-
fore it would not be much Not AT ALL

alive and 1 gave him receipt for his in

BRAZIL'S REVOLUTION.

An Interesting Lecture Before the County
Teachers Institute by Delos Fall-Some
of the Peculiarities of the New Repub-
lie as Seen by a Visitor.
There was a large audience present last
night at the session of the County Teach
ers' Institute, in the Butler Street NJ. Z.
Church. The programme comprised among
other things, music and lecture, "Coup
d'etat in Brazil" by Delos Fall, Of Mich
igan. After prayer by Rev. DR.. Pierce.
my Country Til of Thee" was sung by "a
chorus consisting of 80 boys and girls.
Superintendent Luckey made a few remarks
upon the duty of teachers, and the disad-
vantages under which they labor, owing to
the lack of interest shown in the work by
many parents.
Mr.. Fall in the course OF his lecture said
that the present era was with several e1cep-
tions the most remarkable in the history of
the world. Many wonderful things had
been done, but to his mind one of the great
est achievements was the transformation OF
Brazil in single day from monarchy to a
Republic without the shedding of drop of
blood. Although, said he, the change was
made in day the first indications of such a
result were to be seen as early as 1898, when

Mr.. Fall then gave a lengthy description
of trip along the Amazon river, minutely
describing the animal and vegetable life of
the northern portion OF the republic, and
the amusing experiences he met with. He
says the American dollar is there sold at a
premium of 20 per cent. The common coin
is called the raj, and it requires 20 of them
to make one penny. The natives are lazy

chasing after culprit they desire to place
under arrest. Milk is delivered at the
doors of the houses in very peculiar man.
ner, the cows being driven from house to
house. A remarkable feature about the
Amazon river, said Mr.. Fall, is that for six
hours in a day person can go many miles
inland with the tide and out again with ebb
tide, the waters being affected by the tides
for 750 miles inland.

PLAYED HAVOC OUTSIDE.

Some County Storm Scenes Noted From a
Car Window.
The storm in the knobs between this city
and Frankfort Springs was young cyclone.
Striking one it would carom and hit another
and between the two the unsightly worm
fences got great shaking up and the fiber
in them intended for next year wasps' nests
flew in the air like thistledown. Some
farmers suffered for their greed IN denuding
these heights of the timbers which formerly
tangled" or broke the force OF their blast.
Now it glances off the smooth surface and
gathers force in its onward career. Persons
in the middle of fields were lodging from
pieces of broken rails and pair OF large
oxen near Forest Grove found their stand
ing more secure by turning one end to tile
storm than by standing broad-side.
At Forest Grove a sheet iron stack at an
engine house blew down, and the sheet OF
fame from the natural gas fire being blown
against the roof of boiler house belongi ng
to the Fort Pitt Natural Gas Company set
it on fire, and in few minutes the structure
was consumed. Many derricks were badly
warped, but so far as heard from they with
stood the pressure.
Mt. Washington is good wind breaker
or this city would have suffered severely.
Had the gale been up the river the conse-
quence would have been disastrous.
