RAN LIKE A DEMON.
A "Ride" Into Town Ends
Abruptly to Eugene Burns.
WAGON DAsHBs INTO TREE BOX

Dbl4lN LII WAGON Of GEOhOL II.
HUBER COMPLETELY DEMOL-
IsHED WHILE ON IT'S WAY FROM
DUPONT'S BANKS-GEORGE VOL
HAR, THE DRIVER, THROWN
OUT AND HURT.
A runaway, which caused an accident
to two men, occurred this morning
about o'clock at Third and VanBuren
streets. The horse of George IL. Huber,
attached TO a bakers wagon. became
frightened and ran pell-mell down
Third street to Monroe
The team was in charge of George
Wolhar, its regular driver, and was re-
turning from DuPonts Banks, where
Wolhar had been delivering bread.
While on the return way Eugene Burns,
who lives at DuPont's Banks, called to
Wolhar for haul" into Wilmington.
The request was granted and the trip
was made safely until Third and
Brocme was reached. AT this point
there is a steep hill, and it is thought
that the horse tripped over one of the
many protruding rocks on the hill, and
became frightened.
The animal became unmanageable
and started on a dead run down Third
street.
The wagon swayed from side to side
and the few bystanders who witnessed
the occurrence expected to see both oc-
cupants thrown from the wagon. When
near Cherry street, a small thorough
fare running between Second and Third
and Jackson and Van Buren, Burns
leaped from the wagon and was thrown
violently to the ground.
LANDED ON HIS HEAD.
Burns landed on his head, striking
the curbstone and inflicting an ugl.
wound. The cash is nearly six inchei
| long. He also dislocated his left ankle
The fall rendered him unconscious. H'
was picked up by several pedestrian
and placed on the pavement.
WOLHAR ESCAPED INJURY.
Down Third street went the madden
ed animal with Wolhar holding on 70
dear life. There remained but on
thing for Wolhar to do, and that wa
/ to lump, as did Burns. He did SO. am
was slighly bruised about the left arr
and shoulder, at Third and Jackso
streets, the horse and wagon dashe
into tree box, completely demulishin
the wagon Had not WOlhar jumpe
he would have undoubtedly been killed
The accident aroused the entir
| neighbOrhOOd, and in a few minutes IN
street was lined with people. Willin
hands carried Burns to DR.. Fahey
drug store, whore his injuries were al
tended. He was then removed home

exertions of Mr.. B. B. Smith, chairman
of the committee on streets, street
sprinkler was put to work on the
streets to-day and this mode of keeping
down the dust while the streets are

Improvement over the old way. The

ed by Mr.. J. M. Hill, and Mr.. B. Wheat,
president OF the Alexandria Water
Company, gave his consent to theuse Of
the water to-day without charge to the

ment and it proved so satisfactory that
it is hoped arrangements can be made
for its continuance, at least through
the summer when the streets are so

CASE D1sM1ssEp.-Harry Rice, pro.

CASE DIsMIssED.-Harry Rice, pro.
prietor of a saloon on the northwest
corner of Princess and Fairfax streets,
was before the Mayor this morning
charged with keeping disorderly
house and with using insolent language
toward an offic ar in the discharge OF his
duty. The charge was made by Lieu
tenant Smith, who testified that about
hslf-past niue o'clock last night he was
passing Rice's saloon when he heard
disorderly and unseemly language
therein. The Lieutenant entered and
demanded to know the cause of the
trouble, and obtaining no satisfaction,
told MIR. Rice his saloon was dis
orderly place, an eye-sore to the neigh
borhood and saloon he intended COM
planning of to the court which should
revoke the license. The proprietor,
according to the Lieutenant, said the
latter had no business in his place un-
less called aud that he could procure
his information the best way he could.
The Lieutenant summoned colored
woman named Sarah Alexander and
the proprietor to appear this morning.
Mr.. Rice in his testimony charged the
Lieutenant with entering his saloon in
au abrupt and despotic manner which
was totally unwarranted. He further
denied that there had been any disor-
derby language used. The evidence be-
ing of conflicting nature all around,
the Mayor dismissed the case.
