MOTHER GEARY,
She Was Caught Pocket Picking in Santa
Barbara.

She Was Caught Pocket Picking in Santa
Barbara.
Detective Bosqui, of Chief Glass's
front-ofice force, returned yesterday
from the Santa Barbara flower fair,
where he had been looking out for
crooks. Mayor E. w. Gaty, of Santa
Barbara, had asked the big chief of Los
Angeles for clever man, and the detail
was made as stated. Mr.. Bosqui reports
that the crowd at the fair included very
few "fy" people, and only one or two
thefts we're reported. He was of assist
ance to the marshaPs force at the fair,
however, in the arrest of notorious
pick-pocket known as "Mother Gearv,"
who makes her headquarters here and
has been smooth enough to escape con-
viction, although she has been arrested
a number of times.
Another old friend of the detective
seen at the fair was John O'Callahan,
the red-headed book agent who sells
Dore Bibles at a ridiculously low price
on the installment plan. This clever
swindler has helped great deal toward
building roads for Los Angeles while he
was a member of the chain gang.
O'Callahan while he was at Santa Bar
bara got on one of his periodical sprees,
and was arrested. The justice did not
learn in time of his peculiar swindling
ways, and dismissed the prisoner with a
small fine.
The Los Angeles detective recognized
her at the Arlington hotel in Santa Bar
bara, watched her and saw her make
several vain attempts to "work'' in a
crowd surrounding street fakir. Inas-
much as the woman knows Detective
Bosqui, the latter pointed out the
woman to Officers G. Kelton and Dick
Dow of the marshal's force and gave
them few pointers as to the method to
be employed in shadowing her. At his
suggestion young boy was engaged to
stay in her immediate vicinity, and,
surely enough, at the reception on the
man.of-war Charleston. Mother Geary
was seen by the boy and one of the Off
GERS to pick the pocket of q woman in
the crowd. The pick-pocket got away
with the purse, took $40 from it, and
threw the receptacle away. The money,
as we'll as the purse, were afterward re-
covered, and the evidence against the
prisoner is complete. Mother Geary is
now in jail in default OF $1,000 bail.

WILL PROBABLY DIE.
LITTLE GEORGE UHRIG DRAGGED
BY A HORSE.
Park Yesterday-A Bad Fracture
Of the Skull Sustained.

A terrible accident occurred yester-
day afternoon at Westlake park which
will probably result in the death of an
unfortunate young boy. George Uhrig,
about 10 years of age, whose father has
small dairy on First street near Alva-
RADIO, was riding one of his fathers
horses on the west side of the park. He
was accompanied by another boy, also
mounted. Suddenly George lost his
balance, and while the horse was NOV
ing at rapid gait fell from the saddle.
His foot caught in the stirrup long
enough to cause his being dragged few
yards, and in the interval the hoof of
the horse struck the boys head ter
rible blow back of the right ear.
The senseless body of the child
remained in the roadway. Scores
of people ran to the scene of
the accident, and the body of the boy
was carried to the boat shed, whence a
| telephone message was at once sent to
the city hospital. The patrol wagon at
once responded to the call, Police
Surgeon Bryant accompanying it. A
superficial examination was made at
the park and the boy was then placed
on litter and taken to the police sta
ton.
The boy had bled terribly from his
right ear, and from this fact, as well as
the one that depression seemed to
exist where the hoof had struck the
boys skull, it was held that the little
patient had sustained fracture at the
base of the brain. A badly lacerated
wound was also found over the right eyes
Under the circumstances nothing could
be done beyond placing cold compress
upon the boys head and.allowing him to
rest. The poor little fellow was taken with
frequent fits of vomiting in the evening.
Drs. Lasher, Cannon, Jauch and Mac
Gowan looked at the case during the
evening.

The Week to Be Devoted Principally to
Appropriation Bills.
WASHINGTON, April 24.-In contrast
with the lively scenes of the past week,
the proceedings of both branches OF con-

doubtless be attacked by its opponents
upon the floor. Appropriation bills will

ings. The debate on the Chinese bill
will occupy all OF tomorrow, and the bill
will probably 60 to the house Tuesday,
