A NERVY BURGLAR.
He Pulled a Gun on Officer Nous
so and Escaped.


Officer Paul Mousse had an exciting
chase after burglar yesterday after
noon, and feels cllagrined to think he
did not capture him after all. AbOut2
o'clock he discovered a suspiciouS-look-
ing character endeavoring to dispose OF
lot of SIlyerware at the secondhand
store at 500 Washington avenue south.
He questioned the fellow as to where
he got the ware, and, receiving no salts
factory answer. proceeded to search him.
He found a silver flute in one pocket
and several boxes of silver knives and
forks in another.
81 guess I'll arrest yOu," said Mousse
to the man.
II guess you won't, was the reply, the
fellow at the same time pulling e.
volver from his hip pocket and showing
under the officers nose.
Before Mousse could preuent him, the
fellow made a break through the door
and started off across Sixth avenue
north, through the railroad yards. at
break-neck speed. Mousse whipped out
his revolver and started after him. He
fired several shots at him. but the fel-
low did not stop. When he got to the
embankment above the union depot
lldChS uC anu HeSO opuoiSiJ
on his feet, though the distance to the
ground is nearly twenty-five feet.
Mousse followed suit and fired a couple
of more shots without effect. OFFICER
Kennedy joined in the chase at this
point. and tried his craftsmanship with
a shot. Al Sixth avenue north the fel
low ran across the river on the ice ana
disappeared somewhere on Main street.
1t turns out that the man is the burg
lar who has been creating reign OF
terror on Park avenue, and who Sun
day night burglarized the residence of
w. p. Engels, at3204 the same avenue,
while the family was attending church.
He got away with lot of silverware
and valuable jewelry, including several
diamonds. The detectives were looking
for him yesterday and cursed them
selues when they learned Of his darling
escape. The police authorities of st.
Paul were notified to keep lookout for
him. and it is expected that he will be
caught before long. In his wild run he
dropped two boxes of Silverware. which
were afterwards brought to police head
quarters.

about 5 per ceht. With its report the
committee made little explanation to
the board, applying to the reasons why
the committee thought it better to build
closets in Farview park than to con-
struct an artificial lake, and why some
requests for fountains, etc., had been
disregarded. The committee said:
Your committee finds considerable
difficulty in fully satisfying all sections
of the city since the park area requiring
improvement is very large compared
to the amount of money at Our disposal:
Your committee is OF the opinion that
it would he unwise at this time TO eX-
pend any money for establishment Of
mere OrnamentatlOn, but that all OF u
should be expended i'm such substantial
improvement as will make present I'M,
improved property accessible, and add
to the convenience of visitors to our
more popular resorts.
| Commissioner Ryan wanted 10000 lot
fountain in Washburn park, and Sc
cured only $3.50 for closets. The secre-
tary was Instructed to have plans for
| the closets drawn and bids advertised
for.
The board will ask the city council TO
vest in it the control, as TO traffic. or the

wood cemetery, between it and Lake
Calhoun. The board wants to make the
road a part of the boulevard. The resi-
dents on Hennepin boulevard asked me
beard to spend the money remainIng:
! from the sum received from the street
railway company in building sidewalks
along the boulevard. The people think
! this should be done. but the members OF
| the board think that a sidewalk is
permanent improvement and should he
paid for by those benefited through
| special assessments. The forestry com
mittee was instructed toprepare state,
ment as to the number of trees needed
this year and their probable cost. the
attorney was instructed to secure from
the secretary list of all the property
owned by the board, and to obtain from
| the county auditor statement OF all
delinquent taxes standing against the
boards property. The attorney was
also instructed to secure a settlement
for all the PowderhOrn park lands as
soon as possible.

RYAN is EXCLUSIVE.

With Either of Four Others.

He Will Not Serve on committees
With Either of Four Others.
The meeting of the park board yester-
day was fairly quiet, though not op-
pressively calm. A couple of kicks from
members of the committee on Stinson
boulevard served to enliven the pro-
ceedings. The first was in letter form,
and came from Commissioner Ridgway.
He asked that his resignation from the
Stinson boulevard committee be accept
ed. His request was refused. Then a
communication from Commissioner
Ryan was read. He, too, wanted to re-
sign from that committee, and asked
further that hereafter the president
favor him by leaving him off any COM
mittee of which either Brown, Bradish.
Folwell or Ridgway is a member.
Ryan's request was laid Gil the table.
This leaves the StinSon boulevard COM
mittee with but one member, Bradish.
The improvement committee submit
ted two reports. The first recommended
the following special appropriations
tween Lake of the Isles and Lake Cal
houn, $1,000; for Minnehaha boulevard,
200; for Lyndale park and Dupont
avenue parkway, $4,000. This report
was adopted. Then came the report of
the committee disposing of the $4,000
for the improvement of parks in gem
era. The figures, as reported by the
committee, have already been printed
in the GLOBE. The sum that had been
set aside for the Stinson boulevard was
so small that Ryan objected, claiming
that Hangar and one or two others
throw out everything that is meant for
the East side. Ryan's objection was so
vigorous that the board decided to SET
aside $4,000 for Stinson boulevard
Also $1,000 was added to the appropria
ton of Glenwood park. This So, COO will
be taken from all the other appropria
tions, pro rata, which means that thu

MAHONEY'S WATERLOO.
The Trying Case the Judge Had
to Contend With.

Judge Mahoney tried case yester-
day afternoon, and when he had fin
iShed there was wild look in his eye
and his brow was bathed in perspira-
ton. Mrs. Lizzie Pollard charged Mrs.
Dora Buck with assault and bate ry.
Each came into the court room followed
by troop of children, who were to act
as witnesses. There were all kinds of
children-bow-egge children, cross
eyed children, and children who were
neither bow-legged nor cr0SS-eyed.
Mrs. Pollard gathered her witness about
each stood and glared at each other,
like a pair of Kilkenny cats. Judge
Mahoney looked aghaSt at the crowd of
children, and asked, in ascetic tones,
what the trouble was.
"Well, your honor" said Mrs. Pallard,
talking at rate OF speed that would
have made Nancy Hanks green with
envy, "you see, it was this way. That
woman over there pointing at Mrs.
Buck is Just a horrid, mean creature,
and her children keep licking my chill
dren all the time. and she just lets 'em
do it, too, she does, and | have told her
to stop. but she won t,and the other day
she kicked me and bit me. and | made
up my minu to have stop put to such
disgraccful proceedings. so had her ar
rested for Sailing and battering me,
which | hope you will reprimaud her
for, for she is really too bad, and so are
her children, as l can easily prove il
You will only etme ask these poor little
children here how things are carried on
if -"
There is no telling how long she
ho, hr.
Buck interrupted her with:
''It's no such thing, judge. and you
must not believe her. She kicked and
scratched me first, and it's her children
who lick mine. You see, we are neigh
hors on Sixth avenue north, and if L do
say it myself, it's perfect outrage the
Wav she and her children carry on;
that's what it is"
During this terrible bombardment the
children amused themselves by making
faces at each other, and one little girl
displayed her contempt for the ones on
the other side by placing her thumb to
her nose and wrigging her fingers Wig
orously. In short, Judge Mahoney had
one of the most trying cases he had
ever met with. Finally he lost patience
and told both the plaintiff and defend
ant to stop their squabbling The
case, he said, was dismissed, and
both women should 90 home
and take their children and
witnesses with them. The whole affair
was nothing but disgraceful neigh
bors' quarrel, and if they did not cease
their wrangling at once and for all he
would send the patrol wagon and bring
the whole outfit to the station and after
wards send them to the workhouse.W
When Mrs. Pollard and her brood left
the court room she looked scornfully at
Mrs. Buck and remarked:
Think you're smart, don't your"
"Think you're smart yourself. don't
you?" retorted Mrs. Buck, with a
whitening glance, and gathering her
children and witnesses about her. she
flung them out of the door and walked
proudly down the stairs.

AnusementS.

The appearance of Maggie Mitchell, in
Minneapolis Is always the signal tor the be
ginning OF good business at the box Office OF
the theater where she plays. Her audience
last night at the Grand was a good-siZed one
and thoroughly in sympathy with the star.
Her new play, 1.-The Little Maverick, would
never be mistaken for q masterpiece of
dramatic construction, but it must be admit
ted that il is superior to many of the plays in
which Miss Mitchell has appeared 1t is in
teresting all the way through, but one is
never in doubt as TO the conclusion
of the plot or even of the sue
cession of the scenes. Miss Mitchell
herself is exceedingly natural in action.
She is pleasing always. An excellent mem
Der of her company is X. F. McClannin, who
plays the part of a Texas ranchman. Jennie
Carroll does good work as Lady Kenwood,
though she has to struggle with poorly con-
structed lines. Sheridan Upper makes
Hiram Corson such a pronounced villain in
appearance and manner that no one would,
in life. ever trust him even to carry out
Matchmaking scheme. Harry A. Smith is
Miss Mitchells new leading man. He is
slightly amateurish, but at that, is such an
improvement upon the style of leading man
the public has been accustomed to receiving
from her that the change merits warm COM
mendation.
The bright and catchy music and funny
Epecialties of the Two Old Cronies' drew
large audience to the Bijou last evening.
This is without doubt one of the most enter
tanning farce comedies that has been al the
Bijou this season.

Beware Old Sermons.

At the meeting of the Baptist minis
tiers yesterday, Rev. Wayland Hoyt fired
several "bewares'' at the assembled
clergymen. The one upon which he
laid most stress was the "beware of the
Old sermon" He thought that more
ministers had been wrecked OH the rock
= of old sermons than Oh any other. Once
in while occasion demands the repeti-
'tion OF an old sermon, but those oc-
casions are rare. When an old sermon
is used, he advised il should be rewrit-
ten and rethOught.

A REGULAR KNOCKOUT.
An Electric Street Car and Saw
dust Wagon Collide,

About half-past o'clock yesterday
afternoon, an electric car on Washing
ton avenue north, was crossing the
bridge at Fourth avenue, and directly in
front of it was huge sawdust wagon
drawn by pair of numbering horses.
The driver was a little slow in turning
them out and the ear struck the wagon
in the rear with a loud crash. The
wagon was completely demolished and
the driver thrown over OH his horses
backs. Several men who were passing
at the time prevented the horses from
running away, otherwise the driver
would probably have been killed.
d. The electric car Jared badly too. The
front platform was knocked in and a
portion Of the roof was broken. The
motorneer had narrow escape anC
only saved himself by jumping back te
| the door. The passengers on board

No Union Hospital Wanted.

Rev. w. r. Reynolds read the Pres

day. The paper was called out by the
agitation of the question of the building
of a hospital by the Christian Endeayor
societies. Mr.. Reynolds spoke against
a union hospital such as that would be.
He wanted the Presbyterians 10 unite
and build Presbyterian hospital. Such
an institution would be more harnoni-
ously managed. It had been urged that
the Presbyterians were too orthodox to
be practical. Here was an opportunity
to demonstrate to the contrary.
