THREATENED TO SUICIDE
Al Sturdy, the Blacksmith, Said He Proposed
to XIII Himself

Al Sturdy, the Blacksmith, Said lie Proposed
to Kill Himself
AL Sturdy, the blacksmith, has caused
his family considerable anxiety within
the past few days by threatening to COM
NIT suicide.
On Friday night the neighbors on Bowie
Heights were aroused by the screams of
the women at his house, and on investi-
eating learned that Sturdy had said he
was going to kill himself. and 1t is under
stood had tried to take his life. He was
restrained though, before he did any
harm. Saturday he said to friend in a
blacksmith shop on East First street,
where he was visiting, that there was o
further use in living and he proposed to
kill himself. The friend told him not to
talk SO foolshly, and search was made
of Sturdy to see If he had any arms about
him, but none wers found. Sturdy told
them that he had a pistol at home and
ne proposed to use 1t.
Nothing was reported yesterday from
him. so it is likely that the mania has
been abandoned. Sturdy has been drink
ing heavily for some days past, though,
and is likely to act rashly when under
this influence of liquor. He has been in
the asylum at Stockton. it is said. as a
result of his heavy drinking and was dis
charged as cureu. His present desire to
end his days seems to be the result of
temporary insanity from drink. He also
has had family troubles.

THE PASSING OF THE HORSE

The time really seems to be drawing
near when that noble animal the horse"
will bs chiefly useful as subject for the
youthful school essayist. Already he is
in the rear of the procession with the
trolley and the bicycle, aud tie read wwagg-
on is likely soon to get ahead of him. The
Steinway Piano company. as an ad-
junct of their business, will soon have q
force OF three hundred men turning out
road carriages propelled Eby petroleum
motors. Other manufacturers will prob
ably soon be in the field. Even now the
value OF the horse depends, in some To-
oalities, on his possible meat output, and
this takes him back to his primitive use
by our ancestors some thousands of years
ago.
On this subject the Now YORK World re-

The recent competitive race from Paris
to Bordeaux and return made the electri-

advertising columns OF the World have
informed the public of the introduction
OF the electrical delivery wagon in the
service OF business. Our news columns
have told of the establishment of plant

be propelled by gas explosions generated
by petroleum. The horssless wagon is

to become of the horse?'

Life is much easier under the principle

ultimate aspiration of humanity. The
Nirvana of the next world may satisfy the
Buddhist of the far Orient, but physical
exertion and mastery is need Of the
American of today. And no other form
of pleasure or trial OF skill so we'll meets
this need as the fiery spirit OF the horse.
No one who has ever answered the email

the horse. 1t may do for the delivery of

KNOCKED DOWN WITHOUT CAUSE
Ed Palanaugh Of San Fernando Now Has .
Lopsided Pace

Ed Paianaugh Of San Fernando Now Has Q
Lopsided Pace
William Garden was arrested Saturday
afternoon by officer Matuskiswiz on
North Main street and charged with hav-
ing disturbed the peace. Garden depos-
tied $40 for his appearance in court today.
The case appears to be one OF mistaken
identity. Garden was taken on complaint
of Ed Palanaugh of San Fernando, who
claimed that the prisoner had assaulted
HIM without provocation.
Palanaugh says that he was on Com
mercial street with Deputy Constable J.
Bowles when the latter arrested one John
Gridley for disturbing the peace. Bowles
requested him to assist in bringing the
prisoner to the police station, which he
did. As 1t was near train time Palanaugh
started for the Com mercal street depot
once more, but was cautioned by the
officer to look out as somebody was Hkley
70 do him mp
At the depot a man, and Palanaugh
thinks it was Garden, stepped up and
dealt him terrible blow on the mouth,
knocking him down and drawing blood.
The assailant then took to his heels and
disappeared in the direction OF Main
street. Palanaugh stopped long enough
to give him good start, deposited his
valise in a store. gathered his wits and
then he, too, ran up Commercial street
after the man with the strength OF San
dow and the fist of Corbett.
As Palanaugh passed by bootblack
stand on Main street who should he see
but Garden. having a patent leather fin.
ish impaired to the mask oil. his Mercurial
extremlties. Palanaugh at once identi-
fed him as the man who had struck Bill
lie Patterson away back in the '70s, and
later Mr.. Palanaugh1of San Fernando, and
acquainted Officer Matuskiewiz with the
most important discovery. The latter
lost no time in ringing for the patrol
wagon.
Palanaush now thinks that trip to
the metropolis 10 fraught with dangers,
and he will wander no moro. at least not
until his face gets straight as it was be-
fore the man with fist made of BRASS
hit him.
At the station Garden denied most pos
itively that be had hit the San Fernando
gentleman, and said the latter had made
a mistake,

AMERICAN SPORTS AND THE ENGLISH
PRESS

There is considerable of what the Eng
Iish themselves term rot in the utter
ances of part of the British press lately
about what are claim ed to be objectlona-
BILE sporting traits of Americans. There
ia absolutely no foundation for these in
solent insular animsdversions, for sport
in this country is kept on an equally. If
not higher, plane than in England. That
Bible of English society, Burke's Peer
age, contains the names of several noble
gentlemen who we're ruled off of race
tracks for various swindles, and in the
line Of professional sporting persons this
country has been afflicted with any mum.
Der of English fakirs, including that most
contemplate iockeying pugilist, Charley
Mitchell. Then, again, We have yet to
have social sportive scandal approach
ing in disgraceful features the episode at
Tranby-Croft.
The Herald does not mean to take
pharisaical point OF view in this matter,
nor does it claim that American sporting
contests are free from all Objectionable
features, but it does hold that there is
no more cheating or overreaching in this
country than IN England, and that we
are even fairer and more generous in
high class contests than are the British.
We have defeated the English in so many
lines of sport that the recent whines in
some London journals about unsports-
manlike American methods como with
very bad grace. Happily these un.
based reflections do not represent the
better sporting element in England, and
are nothing more tnan the outgivings of
envy. malice or ignorance on the part
of the writers.

ENFORCE THE LAW OR REPEAL 1T

The Sunday closing law was not gen.
orally enforced yesterday. Chief Glass
and the police commission are either
bluffing the public or are ridiculing
them. As it now stands the law is a
farce, and should be either repealed or
rlgidly put into effect. The saloon keep
ers are licensed; they have a right to con-
duct their business without being dis
eliminated against, and they should all
be put on an equal footing. 1t is wrong
for the police to allow one saloon to be
open on Sunday and oblige another to
close. and this view is taken by the bet
ter class of liquor dealers as we'll as by the
better class of citizens. To partially en-
force the law is 20 put the saloon men
at the mercy of the police. and open
the way for their selling protection to
the men who pay the city license
There is hardly any doubt that the
saloon men would be willing to obey the
law il it were enforced impartially, but
they can hardly be blamed for Directing
to it, when ono man is obliged to close
his place on Sunday and another is al
lowed to keep his wide open. There is
no middle course in this matter; either
enforce the law impartially, or repeal it..
