ATTACKED BY DOGS.
A City Mail Carrier Had a Lively Exper-
fence. Down the River, Sunday Evening.


Mail Carrier James Manton, Of the South
Side, had a rather exciting and miraculous
escape from death, Sunday evening, down
the river. in an encounter with four days.
which, from all indications. were mad.
Mr.. Mauton was OF his way TO the rail-
road station near the fishing camp Of the
Panhandle club, when he was suddenly
pounced upon by four ferocious looking
dogs and used up very badly. He, in his
endeavor to escape, fell 10 the ground, only
to be surrounded by the dogs and his safety
more imperilled. His cries for help were
not heard. but with much difficulty he
made his way, in a bleeding condition, to
the station. The dogs were evidently
watch dogs of farmers living near the rail-
road Mauton was brought to Wheeling
and taken TO the Office of DR.. r. VI. Rau,
on the South Side, who rendered the neces-
sary medical aid. Mr.. MautCn's injuries
and bites are more serious on his right leg
than any other portion of his body, as one
of the dogs tore a huge piece Of flesh from
the calf of his leg. He has also several
bruises about his forehead.
DR.. Rlu examined the case very care
fully and instructed him TO attend the
Pasteur Institute in New York to guard
against any possibility of hydrophobia
setting ill.,

CRIMINAL COURT.

Before Judge Hugus. in the Criminal
Court. yesterday morning, Albert PaltZ,
WHO'S only about seventeen or eighteen
years Of age, was put en- trial on the
charge Of stealing q mare belonging to
Mrs. A. D. Garden. Col. Robert White
and NJ. +. DRYDEN were for the defense.
The jury was W. 5. Coleman, Hermann
Claus. J. II. Clark, j. E. Webster, Geo.
c. Crisis. Samuel Moore, J. w. Coleman,
Benz. Gooding. Henry Kern, w. J. Wei
sh3ns. j. O. Schenerlein and Charles H.
Brysou. The alleged crime was CEN
united June 14th last.
The defense was that the defendant
was not responsible for his acts. The
State offered to take the trial jury out
OF the box and impanel a new jury es-
pecially to pass upon the sanity of de-
PENDANT, but this offer was refused.
Arguments were heard last night, and
the jury went out about ten o'clock. Al
a quarter of eleven they had not agreed
upon q verdict. and were adjourned over
until nine o'clock this morning.
The case of State Y. Chauncey White.
indicted for stealing a pCcke,5ook, was
continued.

The City Charter Commission held
an important session last evening, con-
sidering a number of matters of the
greatest public importance in connec-
ton with the proposed new fundamen-
tai law for the city government.
At the opening Of the session Attor-
ney Erskine read over his notes of the
work outlined at the last meeting, and
they were generally approved.
A communication was then read from
the Humane Society, transmitting a
copy of the Omaha City ordinance pro-
hibiting children being on the streets
after nine o'clock at night, and asked
for such action as would pave the way
for like action by the Council of this
city. After a brief discussion a para
graph was ordered inserted in the new
charter, empowering Council to pass
such an ordinance if it saw proper so to
do.
The attention of the commission was
then directed to a continuation of the
work of blocking out the main points
in the charter, and Mr.. Hamilton moved
that there be a Board of Public Safety,
to have complete supervision Of all mat
ters relating TO police, fire and health,
with authority to appoint the chiefs of
the departments named. subject 10 con-
firmation by Council, the head Of the
departments 10 name their subordinaJes,
subject also TO the approval of Council.
The resolution was adopted after a long
discussion during which it was deVel
oped that the Commission was practical
ly unanimous on the subject. This was
followed by a further clause giving
Council authority to inaugurate the civil
service idea in all departments, if it so
desired, but not making il obligatory.
There can be no doubt Of the proposition
that the present method OF managing
important city departments through
Council Committees is about as bad
system as the wit Of man could devise,
but whether the idea formulated last
evening would be any improvement, is
something about which there will be
radical difference of opinion. The pro-
posed board is to consist of three citi-
zens, to be elected by Council every TWO
years.
The Commission next turned its at
tention TO the levying and collection Of
taxes, the work of assessors, etc, and
there was a long and at times spirited
discussion, during which the evils of
the present alleged system were well
brought out. This subject will be fur
Their considered at the next meeting.

THE OPERA.
Another Evening of Wet Weather
Seriously Interferred With the
Season at tho Wheeling Park
Casino.

Again last night the rain seriously
irterfered with the attendance at the
production of Bohemian Girl" at the
Wheeling Park Casino. The man in
charge of the rain supply of the wealth
er bureau evidently started up again
where he left off Sunday, and as a result
the audience was only a fair one in size.
The opera, however, was sung with the
same excellence as on Friday night and
gave a most satisfactory and intelligent
Interpretation of the work which made
Michael Bale famous. The principal
roles were taken by Miss Knox, Miss
De Rue, Mr. Bell, Mr. Branson, Mr..
Waldo and Mr.. Gaillard, and each ad-
ded to the good reputation previously
established The chorus was as usual
very effective The Pirates of Pen
zance" will be the bill for this even
ing and tomorrow evening Both music
and libretto are in Gilbert e Sullivan's
best vein, and a superb rendition may
be anticipated. The weather indica-
tons point TO favorable skies for to-
Gay, and il the forecast is an accurate
one, it is safe to predict a big rush to
the Park On Thursday evening The
Bohemian Girl" will be repeated, and
the ever-popular "Mikado" will close
the week with performances on Friday,
Saturday and Saturday matinee If the
earnest hopes of the local lovers of
music are fulfilled, good weather will
favor the remainder of the engagement
