IRA WOODWORTH'S BRAVE ACT.
He Stops Runaway Horse and Saves
a Chi!d's Life.
An Exciting Scene Yesterday That
Filled Peoples Hearts With Hor-
ros, and Then With Joy.

A runaway occurred about noon yester-
day that narrowly missed being attended
with fatality.
VIM. Watson, who was driving light
wagon belonging to Curtis Bros. had his
four-y ear-old son with him, and stopped
at Nineteenth and l streets and left the
horse for moment, the little boy re-
manning in the wagon.
Something frightened the animal, and
he at once started running at frightful
speed down street to Tenth, and thence
to X, and down the latter street.
Probably hundred people endeavored
to stop the frightened animal during his
long run, and the little boy clung as best
he could to the sides of the buggy, as it
swung about, humping over the road in
cloud of dust behind the frantic horse.
How the child managed to remain in the
wagon was puzzle to all observers, and
the many narrow escapes from collision
with other vehicles and curbs were
equally marvellous.
When the maddened animal reached X
street 1t seemed impossible that he could
pc stopped, and 1t was momentarily ex-
pected he would dash into some OF the
numerous vehicles there with terrific
speed, and the Mortified spectators were
certain the child would be killed.
Just before the horse reached the Gen.
trail House, between Eighth and Ninth
streets, courageous young man named
Ira Woodwork Sprang to the rescue and
endeavored TO head OFT the horse. Fail
ing in this, with remarkable activity he
succeeded in clamberng into the wagon
from behind. seized the child and the
reinS and brought the frenZied horse to
his launches just as it was about to dash
between two carriages, where a wreck
would have been inevitable.
The little boy was still clinGing des-
perately to the wagon, but, although
greatly frightened, he was unhuTt He
could only gasp out his name. and that
the horse ruined away from way off,"
Mr.. Watson soon arrived, and TO find
his boy safe after his perilous ride quite
unnamed him. He clasped the child in
his arms with delight and blamed him
self for trusting the horse moment.
Turning to the young man who went
so bravely and effectually to the rescue,
he gave him his purse and said for him
to call where he was employed and draw
his salary.
Young Woodwork thanked him, but
would accept nothing saying he had
merely done as Watson might have done
under the same circumstances.
Ira Woodwork was for some time en-
ployed with the Buffalo Brewing Com
pany. He is young man of about q
years. and deserves credit and praise for
his brave rescue Of the child and prevent
ing the serious or fatal injury of others.

THE TURNER CASE.
Mays Friend Would Like to Set
With Her Victim.

Mays Friend Would Like to Settle
With Her Victim.
The case of May Turner, who is accused
by one Mcconnell of having robbed him
of $50 and a watch while he was calling
upon her, will probably come up in the
Police Court to-day.
On Sunday the woman had succeeded
in impressing the police authorities with
the belief that she was being made the
victim of plot, and that she was inno-
cent of the charge. Yesterday, however,
Mcconnell displayed at the police office
the following note, which he said had
been showed under his door:
Mcdonnell = If you don't appear
against Nellie Smith, 1 will get Your
watch and you can see her about the
money" (Signedl P, Salt Works
Lodging-house.
Now the police have changed their
minds again, and the Chief would like
very much to get hold of the author of
the above note. If caught he can be
prosecuted tor attempting to bride wit
ness.
Last evening officers Rider and Gibson
arrested Mrs. Paramore, the keeper OF
the lodging house, on suspicion of being
concerned in the case.

Concerning the rumor that gained cur

through misunderstanding of a remark
made before the Board of Supervisors
to the effect that the Southern Pacific
Company contemplated the removal OF
its workshops from here to that city.
President Huntington telegraphed yes
terday TO this, city:
I'VE have never had, and have not
now. any idea of removing the shops, or
any part of them, from Sacramento.
Furthermore, / am quite sure that Mr..
Haley never said any such thing as he
was reported to have said, viz: That we
were going to remove the shops from
your city.
I'VE do expect to build some shops in
San Francisco to do the work of the

A BOON TO MOTHERS.
The Children's Day Home is Now Read
for the Tots,

The Children's Day Home is Now Ready
for the Tots.
The Children's Day Home is now open
at the rooms of the Women's Christian
Temperance Union, ON Third street, be-
tween X and l., and ready to receive little
children whose parents are obliged to
work out and have no other means of
having their little ones cared for.
The Matron will be at the home all day
to receive and care for the children. 1t is
desired that all mothers who stand in
need of this assistance should be ac-
qualnted with the fact. AS soon as the
fruit season comes on and the cannerieS
offer employment to several hundred
people, it is expected that many will be
benefited through this Children's Home
The chief diffIculty to be met is how to
arrange for having the children taken to
and from the home. The good ladies
who have started it have not the means
with which to employ some one to call
for the children with q wagon and return
them in the evening, so mothers will
have to do the best they can until some
philanthropiSt comes to their rescue, or
the ladies Of the home can get enough
small monthly subscriptions to pay
teamSter.
Here is good opportunity for some of
tue cnarlldDie ORGANIZATIONS IN the city TO
do something. Or. why cannot club of
society young ladies be formed who will
attend to collecting enough money each
month to pay man for taking these
children of poor mothers to and from the
home? 1t is pity that any poor woman
should be deprived of the privilege of
earning livelihood because of her in
ability to take her children to and from
the home.
Another way in which kind-hearted
people can help this truly noble charity
is by sending to the Children's Home
everything they can spare in the way OF
toys, for the amusement OF the little ones
during the long days they must be care d
for and amused.

be Obeyed.
Fred Mason, who completes with Trus-
tee Green in the embarrassing bust
ness, was sued recently by one of his en-
ployes, j. Lycadore, for wages alleged to
be due, and the case came up for hearing
before Justice of the Peace Henry yester-
day.
Mason says he has had considerable
trouble with his help, principally through
their quitting him when he needed them
most. so he established rule bv which
he withheld ten days pay from each en-
ploye at the end of each month. and
when one of them quit work without
giving him ten days notice, he kept this
extra money due them.
! Lycadore threw up his situation with
out giving the required notice, and Mason
held out the ten days guarantee. Then
Lycadore refused to take any of his
money, and sued for the entire amount
due him. His testimony yesterday was
to the effect that when Mason employed
! him he did not say anything about the
ten days business The plaintiff
averred that he knew nothing of it until
| he applied for his wages. But upon
cross examination Lycadore admitted
that he had worked for Mason once be-
fore. and that the holding-out practice
was in vogue then.

LAST OF THE VIOLATORS
Saloon-Keeper Kohne's Case Dismissed
in the Superior Court.

Saloon-keeper kohne'S Case Dismissed
in the Superior Court.
In Superior Judge Catlin's Court yes
terday afternoon, Attorney w. A. Ander-
son moved for the dismissal of the case
of the People VS.. Henry Kohpe. This,
said the attorney, was the last of the
midnight closing ordinance" cases,
Kohne being one of the saloon-keepers
who violated that ordinance when it was
in force. He was convicted in the lower
court, but appealed to the Superior Court,
but nothing further had been done in the
matter. Since the conviction, however,
the City Trustees had passed another
ordinance, decreeing that saloon-keepers
could keep open after midnight provided
they paid an additional license. The
Trustees then ordered that all of the pros
ecutions be dismissed, and they were.
Mr.. Anderson said that while Kohne's
case, as it now stood, was brought by
himself (being an appeal), it was in the
same category. His motion TO dismiss
was granted.
