Teamster Wilson's Experience With a
Terminal Locomotive.
An accident occurred at the Kuhrts-
street bridge, q little after O'Clock on
Thursday evening. by which one man
was nearly killed and wagon demol-
ished, by the Pasadena train on the
Terminal,
The injured man, named Wilson, was
q former resident of the East Side,
being the driver OF one of the Downey-
avenue sprinkling carts about a year
ago. 1t seems that he was driving 8
lumber wagon, and, in company with
another team and wagon, was returning
to the city. The fret team crossed the
track in safety, but the tender struck the
second wagon, throwing the horses and
driver into ditch about ten feet deep
alongside the track on the river side.
The wagon was reduced to kindling
wood, and the driver was thrown at
least fifty feet, alighting against one of
the piles that holds the levee. Neither
of the horses was killed. The train was
stopped and backed to the scene of the
accident, and q search made for the
driver. After five minutes search, he
was found bp boy named Albert Hahn
in an insensible condition, fully fifty
feet from where the accident occurred.
He was considerably injured about the

RuBIE,s ADVENTURE.

How q Los Angeles Girl Went to
Barstow.
Miss Rubie Dorsey is a 16-year-old
girl, belonging to good family OF
this city. She is very handsome
girl, and fuli of vivacity and desire for
adventure. The San Bernardino Courier
tells the following story about her:
She was dressed in boys toggery,
and everybody thought she WAS such a
nice looking boy. She was pretty, too ;
but are not all runaway girls with a
romantic yearning for boys clothes
and hoy's ways, his exultant freedom
and his chance for getting on in the
world, pretty, when they are sketched
on copy" paper and framed between
column rules? That may be so, but
this one was positively handsome. She
was 16 years old, blue eyes, plump and
vivacious, and under her iaunty hat she
concealed what was left of her blonde
treases after they had been cut off to
conceal any evidence Of her femininity.
She was on the streets all day on Thurs
day, and no one who passed her by sus.
pected that here was girl masquerad-
|sing in male attire.
Then, whens che left here, and ar
rived in Barstow on yesterday, che ex-
cited no suspicion among the boys till
che attempted to steal ride on the
overland to Chicago, and was caught.
Here was nice, unsophisticated Miss
making her first break, and a very i'm
prudent one, into wild and wicked
world, as box Car or brake beam tour
ist, had she not been arrested by Con-
stable Brakeman of Barstow.
When arrested she showeds no de-
fant spirit over the defeat of her errant
purposes. She broke down and cried,
said her name was Rubie Dorsey, that
her people lived in Los Angeles, from
whence she had fed, and that if she
were returned home she would only be
too glad to wear polka dot skirts and
suspenders on the outside of her vest.
The constable was good-hearted off,
Ger. He interested several in her well
fare. They joined in the good work OF
supplying her temporary wants and
sent Miss Rubie home to Los Angeles,
she passing through town today, peni-
tent and fhappy over the change in her
mad programme.

ANOTHER GREAT GAME WON.
Almost a Shutout for the San
Jese Club.
The Angels Take Streak OF Very
Effective Batting.
The Last Game on the Home Grounds
for Three weeks-Notes of the Ma
zion Game California
League Standing.

In taking the last game OF the home
series from San Jose, the Angels in
dulged in a streak of their old-time
batting. Just when it would do the
naost good they would find the trade
mark, and then lean on it with both
shoulders. The game was a brilliant
one in many respects, and the large
crowd in attendance thoroughly enjoyed
it from start to finish.
The pitchers were Roach and Ecoka-
baugh, and both had to attend very
strictly to business. Roach hada little
the best OF it, as far as results went,
allowing only scattered hits, except in
the eighth inning, when three hits and
an error let themsccr their one lonesome
tally. The Angela batting streak was
so pronounced, when necessary, that
Mr.. Lookabaugh was on the anxious
seat until the game was over.
Had the game been errorless it woul ID
have been won by the team in the first
inning. After 4he first batter had been
retired Rasty Wright was allowed to
walk to first. Tredway found the center
of the bat and ball at the same time,
and did not stop running until he had
reached third, driving Rasty ahead of
him, and Glenalvin followed with neat
single which registered the Philistines
tally.
Again in the. fourth inning the locals
made two unearned runs. Glenalvin
walked fto first base. and should have
been forced out at second if Ebright had
not erred. As it was, both he and Lytle
scored on Newman's three-base hit be-
tween left and center.
The Angels also made one in their
half of the sixth. Lytle drove a single
to center, and took second on McVey7 g
allowing it to clip between his legs.
Newman sacrificed him to left, and an
attempt to catch him mapping off the
base resulted in little wildness that
let him cross the plate.
twas blank from this until the last
half of the eighth. With one hand out,
Ebright and Clark found Mr.. Roach q
delivery for single each. Dooley struck
out, but Denny sent single out to
Rasty, who booted the ball, and allowed
Ebright to score from second. But for
this error the San Joses would have
been shut out.s
