SAD SPECTACLE.
An Armies Man Who Gets Drunk, and
Makes His Boy Drink.

Makes His Boy Drink.
+. NJ. Eaiow was the name he gave
when brought into the Police Station at
late hour Oh Friday night by officers Wag-
ner and Arlington. The man was tall and
gaunt, without arms, and-very drunk. A
little boy, poorly clad, and about or 8
years of age, followed at Enlow's heels,
and went into the cell with him.
When the man was searched at the
station a freshly.ilied bottle of whisky
was found in the inside pocket of his coat.
Enlow said the boy was his son, and that
he accompanies him for the purpose of
passing food to his mouth, dressing and
undressing him, etc he (the father having
lost both arms in sorghum mill.
How Enlow made his living the officers
could not learn. He had been tramping
about town all day in a drunken condition,
his little son trotting at his heels like
faithful dog, and shiyering with the cold.
Evidently the man cannot drink unless
some one holds the liquid to his mouth,
and it is sad to think that the child is
forced to keep to his fathers lips the
whisky bottle that renders that unfortu.
nate father even more helpless.
a police officer told SUNDAY-UNIoN re-
porter yesterday that parties declare they
saw the child drunk on Thursday last and
little better able to navigate" than the
father.
Enlow said he was on his way from the
South to Grass Valley, and he was allowed
to go yesterday. When arrested he and
his boy were asleep in the railroad station,
and the train on which they were to have
taken passage had gone some time before

Convict Brown Makes Another Attempt
to Escape From Prison.

Convict Brown Makes Another Attempt
to Escape From Prison.
The Folsom Telegraph of yesterday states
that convict Brown, who escaped from
prison about three years ago, and who was
recsptured some few months ago, made an
attempt to escape last week, but was de-
tected. Brown, who is blacksmith, with
the assistance of some ofthe other convics,
removed the earth from the bottom of his
forge, and had made recess large enough
to secrete himself. He was soon missed.
and search resulted in the development
of the facts as stated.
When Brown was recaptured he was
occupying a position of responsibility, and
had the handling of large sums of money.
He is fluent talker, and on account of his
ability to ingratiate himself in the good
graces of people, heis considered a dam
gerous criminal. His recspture was rough
on him, as he was enjoying life, and had
everything that an ordinary man could de-
sire TO be happy and contented.

pcrtant business to be attended to is the
election of Chairman, to succeed Mr..

During the past month or so there has

talking going on with reference to who
would be the man selected. The new
members-Messrs. Jenkins and Miller
conceded that an old and experienced hold
over should be honored with the position.
but as there were three hold. overs and all
were candidates, matters became compli-
Gated. Finally MIR. Black withdrew from
the contest, leaving Messrs. Greer and
Bates 10 light it out" as it were.
Mr. Bates made no pretenses toward hid
ing the fact that he was candidate, and
openly declared that he was going to have
it, just to knock out Greer" MIR. Greer
was conservative, but always expressed
himself as confident that he would be the
choice of the Board.
Within the past week or SO, however, it
has been reported by persons claiming 10
know what they are talking about, that it
has been definitely decided that Mr. Greer
will take the chair. Mr. Bates having, it is
said, found that he was one vote short, and
gracefully withdrew from the contest.
