FROM a BURNING BED.
An Old CoIored Couple Narrowly Es-
cape a FrightfuI Death.


Otis H. Berge, special officer on Broad
way, has occasion to be elated that he is
gifted with keen sense OF smell, as that
endowment enabled him to save the lives
of an old colored couple, who were lying
asleep in burning bed early Wednesday
morning.
Harvey Brown and his wife are the aged
couple who so narrowly escaped crema-
ton. They took up their abode in the
Broadway House, corner of Broadway and
Kearny streets, several months ago. They
were always considered an unusually eau
tious couple, and how the bedclothes be-
came ignited is mystery.
Berge, when passing the house in which
they reside, detected the scent of burning
cloth. He entered the building and To-
Gated room on the first floor from which
the smoke was passing through crevices
around the door. He tried the door, but
found it securely locked, so nothing re-
manned for him to do but to burst it in.
When this was done the smoke poured
out in volumes, which almost overcame
him. The straw bedding was blazing up
and belching forth volumes of sitting
smoke at intervals. and asleep in the
midst of all this, unconscious of the sur
rounding danger, lay the old colored man
and his faithful wife.
They were dragged out of bed without
ceremony, and recovered from the effects
OF the poisonous smoke and their rude
awakening

SOLDIER ENDEAVORERS.
The Presidio Represented at Concert
Given at the First Baptist
Church.

The soldiers of the Presidio Christian
Endeavor Society were we'll represented at
the concert held at the First Baptist
Church last evening.
1t was the desire of the Endeavorers to
give the right hand of welcome to the sol
dier Christians and cheer them on in their
work among their comrades. Every men,
Der OF the Presidio society received ticket
for the concert and was met by reception
com mittee as he entered the church.
An interesting programme was rendered
in the auditorium of the church, each
number of which was well received and
encored. Especially notable were the
selections given by the Knickerbocker
quartet, consisting of D. NJ. Lawrence, R.
P. Evans, D. B. Crane and L. A. Larsen.
D. NJ. Lawrence, who is gifted with an
unusually fine tenor voice, sang, greatly
to the delight of the audience, 1.-The
Clouds Are Gathering Darkiy Ger Me-"
After the programme was rendered
general hand-shake and reception was
given to the Presidio Christian Endeav-
OrerS.

HANGED HIMslLF IN A BARN
Decomposed Body of an Unknown Man
DiscnEerad Last Examine

Discovered Last Evening.
The decomposed body of a man was
found hanging from the rafters in Robin
son & Knox's hay barn, corner of Brady
and Stevenson streets, last evening at 6
O'Clock by John Henessy, who was search
ing for a missing set of harness. The
coroner was notified and the body was re-
moved to the Morgue.
Judging from the condition of the body
death had taken place fully three weeks
ago. The face was past recognition.
A number of people called at the
Morgue during the evening in hopes of
being able to identify the decomposed
body, but after one glance at the blackened
features hastened away, not caring to
remain long enough to note the wearing
apparel which clothed the body. The
case was plainly one of suicide.
The body was that of a man probably
about Do years of age of sandy COM
plexion. 1t was dressed in dark brown
coat and vest, dark gray trousers, black
negligee shirt, black polka dot tie and
lace Shoes

round TO knock his opponent out, and
Hawkins, after landing three telling left
handlers on Ziegler's face, got home one of
his favorlte righthaDders on Ziegler's Jaw
which sent the receiver staggering against
the ropes.
Ziegler made several vain attempts to
catch Hawkins neck with wild swings,
but fell short in each attempt. The round
ended with wild cheers for Dal.
Just before the cali of time for the sixth
round Jimmy Carroll, the referee, "smelt
MICE" and quickly stepped over to
Ziegler's corner for the purpose of examin-
ing his gloves.
He found that the padding of the gloves
was removed, and after arranging the nit
tens he cautioned Ziegler not to try the
old game a second time. The referee did
the same to Hawkins, and Sergeant Bird
sell told Carroll if any such funny business
was tried second time he would stop the
contest.
In the sixth round Hawkins was knocked
down by a glancing blow. Ziegler, who
was fighting with his usual wickedness,
had the best of the round, as Hawkins at
this point was growing rapidly weak.
In the seventh and eighth rounds Zieg-
ler landed most blows. Hawkins fought
very game battle, but he was handicapped
in weight and strength. His style of
lighting was much prettier than
Ziegler's, but then the Philadelphia
was the aggressor all through the
game, and as he landed the most
blows throughout. the referee awarded him
the match, which decision, notwithstand-
ing the protests of the friends of the game
and clever Hawkins was perfectly right
and proper.
When the referee was leaving the ring
Spider Kelly rushed at him and
smashed Carroll right on the neck. 1t
was a dastardly trick, and Kelly should
have received the punishment he deserves
by being placed in jail. Such conduct
spoils the sport Of fisticuffs.

ALLOWED THREE PERMITS
Supervisors Take Full Charge
OF the Boxing Enter
talnmentS.
Two Future Events Scheduled by the
National Cub Cancelled by
the Board.

The Board of Supervisors held special
session yesterday afternoon to consider
the permits for boxing entertainments
recently issued by acting Mayor Taylor.
At the last meeting of the board a reso-
luton was adopted taking the power of
granting permits out of the hands of the
Mayor and placing it in the hands of the
board and revoking those already granted
Then there was wild scurryiEg among the
managers OF the Hawkins-Zeigler contest
that took place last evening to get the
board TO hold a special session so that the
contest could be brought off, for much
money had already been expended in the
way of expenses and any delay might
mean big loss. They managed to secure
names enough for the calling of special
session and thus saved the day. Super
visors Dimond, Benjamin, Scully, King,
Morganstern, Wagner and bunker were
present, with acting Mayor TAYLOR in the
chair.
Supervisor Dimond was in favor of al
lowing the permits already issued to stand.
as those to whom they had been issued
had expended considerable money in good
faith. Mr.. Taylor wanted to know
whether the passage of the resolution was
intended as a reflection on the Mayor and
was assured by mum Der of those present
that no such thought had entered their
heads while voting on the order.
Alter some discussion il was decided to
allow the permit for last nights entertain
ment, that OF the Manhattan Club for to-
night and that of the National Club on
June 3 to stand on account of the expenses
incurred by the managers of the institutu-
tions.
The permits for two National Club
nights billed for July and August were
Cancelled, though they may be reissued if
the board sees fit.
Supervisor Dimond and acting Mayor
Taylor voted against the cancellation of
any permits already issued
