Injured by Fall Down rs-Runaway
on ChalkstOIe Avenue.

James J. Maoney. who resides at % Bicon
place. mad a bad fall early last evening. de
was going mp n flight of stairs to his tenement
when he slipped and fell down iseveral steps.
It was at first thought no was seriously in
iurcd, but careful examination showed he
had sustained bat slight injury 20 one OF his
ankles Mr.. Maloney's escape was for
tunate one, n tho stairs down which he fell
had a very bad turn.
RUNAWAY ON CHALKsToNE AVENUE.
A horse owned by peddler named Padersky
ran away on Gladstone avenue this morning.
The horse was attached 10 a light wagon and
the owner had partially rlled the wagon with
produce that he intended TO dispose OF at
cut rates in the outlying sections of the city.
The owner had apparently forgotten to give
the horse Its usual morning drink, for while
the peddler was in his store getting more
stuff 10 put in the wagon the animal started
for the drinking fountain on Randall square
at n lively gait. A number Of wagons that
were on the avenue were hit hard, but for
tuuately neither they nor the pcddler's wagon
were damaged
Some peddlcrs who reside in this part of the
city are not over indugent to their faithful
animals. Not only is this apparent from the
fact that 20 locate the ribs and minor parts
in the anatomy of their horses no Xrays are
needed, but by such incidents as the runaway
of this morning. A police officer who had his
suspicious some time ago that certain horse
was not well fed got around just as the owner
was feeding his horse highway. The
owner very exultantly said to the policeman,
as he displayed good big measure OF oats,
That's the kind Of stuff to give them. Z"
This sounded well and the oats looked WELL
but tho officer did not always believe in
appearances, 30 he thought quickly and said
What's that black stun in your oats ?" There
was no black stuff but the officer by asking
the question got an opportunity to put hts
hand into the measure, and he picked up
some of the stuff the horse was being fed
with, and the mystery OF the big feed was
explained, for most of it proved to be very
light chaff.

What has been a frequent object CT
u%nfavorable remark at u depot here as
crates have been transferred from train
to train is thus enlarged upon by the
Sioux City journal of the 26th inst:
An unusually large mount OF poultry
has been shipped into this city during
the past week. Most of the fowls have
come from South Dakota. IN shipping
the poultry the crates are over loaded
and the birds are caused to suffer a great
deal. At the Milwaukee depot last night
the attention Of a reporter WAS called to
4 crate of birds. The chickens were
overpackod aud a great many Of the
birds were suffocated. Those which had
not died en- route had their heads poked
out through the crate and were suffering
greatly. 1t was suggested that the
humane officer should see that the fowls
are properly shipped or arrest the per-
sons in whose possession the chickens
are found.
