A NEIdHBORHOOD NUISANCE
A. Family Who Keep Their Ncighbors In
Hot Water

A Family Who Keep Their Ncighbors In
Hot Water
Residents in the vicinity of Eighteenth
and Bush streets have been greatly an
noyed by the actions OF family named
Byrnes who occupy small dilapidated
house at the point named. The family
consists of man and his wife and nine
children. They are very poor and are
almost wholly dependent on charity.
The husband is cement worker, that
is when he works, but this is seldom,
and some days ago the woman secured
divorce from him. On account OF her
poverty District Attorney Donnell secured
a decree without cost to her and the mat
ter was duly reported at the time. Byrnes,
however, still remains at the house and
apparently participates in the supplies
which have been given the family by
the Associated Charities and other organ
izations. The house is destitute of even
the most ordinary sanitary arrangements
the attention of the health authorities
was called to the matter by the neigh
bors as matter OF self-protection. So
far the family have not paid the slightest
attention to the instructions to clean
up and the woman insulted the sanitary
inspector on his last visit. In the mean
time, the woman is making life burden
for those living near her. She apparently
thinks that they are responsible for the
action of the authorities, and in conse
quence encourages her children to insult
any and all OF them who dare put in an
appearance in their front porches and
lawns. Yesterday it was necessary to
send an officer out to the house to keep
the peace. The owners of the house occu-
pied by the Byrnes have promised to
move the structure this week, and in the
meantime the other residents will keep
indoors unless an officer can be detailed
to protect them from the insults of the
numerous progeny of the family.

SOME SUNDAY RUNAWAYS
Almost a Serious Accident on Boyle
Heights
Three Runaways Caused by the Antics
Of a Drunken Hexican-Severai
Persons Injured

A series OF runaways occurred on Boyle
Heights yesterday afternoon which came
very near resulting seriously. AS far as
can be ascertained they were caused by
the antics of drunken Mexican, who
made his escape after causing all the dam
age he could. Three buggies, two of
which were occupied by man, woman
and child each, and the other by man
and woman, were proceeding up Boyle
avenue. and when near Mrs. Hollenbeck' s
place mounted Mexican came up behind
the rigs at breakneck pace, swearing and
yelling at the top of his voice. The noise
frightened the horses attached to the bug
gies, and they started to run. In going
down the hill, the harness of one of the
animals broke, letting the vehicle run
down on the horse, which began to kick
throwing out the occupants, the woman
and child being knocked senseless The
frightened animal continued in its mad
efforts to get loose from the buggy, finally
kicking through one of the wheels and
being thrown to the ground, when it was
secured. In the mean time the horse at
tached to one of the other buggies. which
was occupied by butcher named Ever
hardy, in the employ of Simon Maier,
was also running down the hill. Mr.. Ever
hardy managed to keep the animal par
TALLY under control, but in turning to
keep out of the way of the other runaway
the buggy was cramped and Mrs. Ever
hardy and the child were thrown out. the
little one sustaining several severe
bruises besides having portions of the
skin scraped off the face and nose. The
third buggy escaped without. injury. The
names of the otner parties could not be
learned, as they got their rig together in
some sort of shape and proceeded on their
way.
Mr.. Everhardy was very indignant over
the actions of the Mexican, which he
characterized as wanton outrage, and
intimated that if any of them had been
armed there would probably have been
more serious trouble.

eOMBAROME Mt OF TENC.cHOW-FOO
Landing of American, German, British, and
French MariDes-korean Notes.

WASHINGTON, January 23.-The Navy
Department has received the following
dispatch from Commander Folger. Of the
Yorktown, at Che-FOo:
"Teng- how Foo, China, was bonn
barded by ten japanese vessels January
18th and 18th. ON the 2lst. in answer To
an appeal from missionaries, and as
travel by land was considered impract-
cable. the Yorktown transported to Che
Foo seventeen women, children, and sick
OF missionary families. On the 2Dth
and 2lst the Japanese, covered by
twenty-three Of their men-ot-war, landed
a large force at the Shan-Tung pro-
montory to attack the Chinese fortliica-
tions at We-Hai-Wei. on the 22d
small force was landed at Che-Foo from
this vessel TO protect neutral citizens and
property. This landing was in common
with that from German, British, and
French vessels"
With reference TO this dispatch, IT was
said at the japanese legation. in this city,
that the forces We're probably landed TO
protect the citizens of these countries
who reside there from an uprising OF
Chinese, and not in the expectancy that
their interests would be JeopardlZed
through an attack on the place by the
japanese. The foreign residents OF Che-
Foo would have no fear from the Japa-
nese forces, and further than that, 1t Is
not likely that the japanese viii make an
attack on the port. Che-Foo Is treaty
port but, according to the authority
mentioned is the least important OF these
nor not executing Chin-kiang. The Japa'
rese might desire it for a base OF supplies,
but even this is unlikely, as there are
other harbors along the coast better
ADAPTED for the purpose, the Che-foo
anchorage being an open roadstead anu
especially unprotected.
As to the probabilities that the Japa-
nesc might desire Che-FOo for the pur-
nose of landing troops there preparatory

that the japanese had already sum
