PASADENA, Aug. 10-(Office Of The
Herald. IS East Colorado street) This
morning Marshal Lacey received telegram
from a constable at Randsburg requesting
that he arrest a certain young man at Eagle
Rock, whose name is withheld pending in
vestigation. The wrong name was given
the marshal, and he was thus hindered In
finding his man. At about noon today,
however, there was a runaway on North
Fair Oaks avenue. A horse and top buggy
had been left standing hitched near Union
street. The horse became frightened by
rein dropping down under his feet and
he ran around back of Reynolds & Van
Mugs place, bumped into Halsted's barn
and was finally stopped after he had bat
tered the rig somewhat. 1t CHANGED that
this rig belonged to DR.. w. c. Bower of
Eagle Rock, and had been entrusted to the
young man wanted at Randsburg. This
young man lives with DR.. Bower and was
to have driven the doctor home. The latter
walked home. however, having failed to be
met by the young man because Marshal
Lacey had found him in the meantime and
taken him into custody. The case against
him is a civil one and his character is
backed by several prominent mining men
of this city. The marshal did not place
him under arrest, but took care of him
over night. Tomorrow it is thought the
matter will be arranged in a manner agree
able to all.
