ANOTHER CASE.
Car No. IS Delayed by a Believer
of the Platform.

Car No. IS Delayed by a Believer
of the Platform.
The San Antonio Street Railway
company seems determined to en-
force the rule prohibiting passen-
gers from riding on the platforms
OF its cars.
Yesterday afternoon at 1:45
o'clock Avenue G line car No. IS
was boarded by Frank Brown on
West Houston street, just west Of
the bridge. He had cigar in his
mouth and remained on the rear
platform. The conductor laid down
the rules to him, but Brown pre-
ferred to ride on the platform.
The car was stopped. The con-
duCtor offered to refund Browns
money, but he refused to accept it.
On the car was lady, who said
she had a sick daughter at home.
She asked the conductor if he
would refund her money. The
conductor replied that he
couldn't do it, and Brown gave
her a nickel. She got off the car
and walked. A man with valise
was in the car, and wanted to catch
the 2:20 train for the east. He
asked Brown If he would pay hack
fare to the depot for him. Brown
went down into his pocket and
offered the man a dollar, but he re-
fused to accept it, saying he was
only joking. Brown agreed to pay
hack fare for any one who was be-
ing delayed on his account. But
he was determined to smoke that
cigar or break leg.
He finished his smoke, however,
in time to avoid blockade of street
car traffic, as by the time the next
car was due his cigar had been
smoked up and he went in and sat
down, and the car just pulled out
as the next car came up.
This is the second time car No.
IS figured in such a case, and in
both instances the same motorman
was on duty.

FOUR BOLD BURGLARS.
A THIEF TAKES A SROT AT II. s
PEABODY.
Fred Bauer and c onrad Scheerer Sustain
Losses From the Burglars-Thcre
Were No Arrests.

The boldest burglary that has been
committed in this city since the Pearl
street robbery six months ago, was per-
petrated early yesterday morning at the
residence OF II. S. Peabody, 5l5 Sand
street.
Mr.. Peabody was awakened By a
burglar going out OF an adjoining room
into his bedroom. The thief was just
about to gather up thu gentleman @
clothes when the latter awakened with
q sudden start, and made loud outcry.
That did not seem to disturb the
burglar in the least, for he proceeded to
pick up Mr.. Peabody's vest, coat and
trowsere. Then the frightened man,
realizing mora fully that he was in tho
power Of thief, yelled for assistnn ce
and commanded him to leave the house.
The burglar. clothes in hand, then
started down stairs. Mr.. Peabody sprang
from his couch and started in pursuit.
He got but half way down this stairway
when the burglar heard him, and before
he knew what was up, the thief drew
his revolver and fred at his pursuer.
The shot missed its 10 ark, but had the
effect OF compelling Mr. Peabody to
hastily retreat to his room, where, in
the cleaning, he thought the matter
over. The more he thought, the NOR 8
angry he became. The occurrence go
worked on his mind that he concluded
TO dress. go down stairs and survey the
field. he did go, and, to his surprise,
found his clothes in the front yard. He
found further that the pockets had been
turned wrongside out and $l20 ex-
tracted.
RAMON vALENZUELA ROBBED.
A more expensive burglary, yet not so
bold, was committed late last evening at
the residence of Ramon Vaenzuela,
1006 East Seventh street. As ia the oaee
in most of the daylight burglaries, the
family members were absent. The bur.
CLARA entered by breaking in the door.
They raneacked the house from cellar to
garrett, taking away articles the descrip-
ton OF which would fill small book.
AS in the case OF the Peabody robbery,
there is no clue to the perpetrators, but
1t is suspected that it was committed
by tramps.
AT FRED BAKERS.
Another burglary was committed, this
time at the residence of Fred Baker, 93S
West Seventh street. While the msm-
hers OF the family were absent the burg.
lars entered at side door by punching
out pane of glass and reaching the
lock OF the door. Then they entered
and did the work. The bureau, chiffo-
nier and clothes press were ransscked
and the contents scattered about, while
the thieves even looked under the pill
lows OF the beds for plumber. A gold
pen and several other small articles were
taken. About SIS would cover the loss
in jswelrv and silverwsre, and that,
with s45 suit of clothes, made q tidy
haul for the thieves.
THE SOUTHWEST INFESTED.
The southwest part of town seems to
be favorable place for the burglarious

those who entered Bakers reeidence.
