A DANGEROUS PASTIME
SMALL BOY HAS A NARROW ES-
CAPE FROM DEATH.

CAPE FROM DEATH.
Michael Rodgers, a boy about years
years of age, narrowly escaped death
under the wheels of an electric car yes
terday afternoon. Young Rodgers,
with about ten small companions, were
playing around the corner Of Second
aud Chestnut streets, and were ANUS
ing themselves by jumping at passing
cars and trying to steal a ride. When
Motorman Wertz's car came lying
along, Rodgers made a grab for it and
caught the front rail, but missing his
footing he began to drag along the
street. Fear made him clutch the hand
rail more tightly, and to this fact,
coupled with the promptness OF Mr..
Wertz, the boy owes his life, as the
motorman brought the car to stand
still within q few seconds.
This practice of jumping has long
been INDUCED in, and the different au-
thorities have tried to put a stop to it.
But the fright which was occasioned
| by Rodgers peril has acted more for
chilly than all the rules and regula-
tions yet put into force.

THE BROTHER CT TIE ABSCOND-
ING TELLER DISPOSES OF SEN-
SATIONAL RUMORS.
A Philadelphia paper prints the fol-
lowing:
The stories lately emanating from
Dover and Wilmington, Del, that VIII
liam n. Boggs, the missing teller of the
First National Bank Of Dover, contem-
plated returning to tell what he knew
concerning his transactions with the
bank, and possibly duplicating others,
were exploded yesterday by his bro
ther. Walter n. Boggs, who resides in
this city
Mr. BOggs not only emphatically de-
MED that his brother intended to rc>
turn, or had even evinced n desire
to do 50 to any one OF the few persons
who knew of his whereabouts and were
i'm communication with him. He. how
over. strongly intimated that the re-
ports OF his intended return home crigl
mated mainly from persons who were
anxious that he should do so, not that
\ the ends of Justice might be subserved,
but with the hope that thereby they
might make capital to further their
own political ends
The first Of these stories about the
| proposed return of his brother, Mr.
Boggs said, originated about the begin
| ming of December last, and for fou
months prior to that time none OF those
who had kept up communication witt
him had heard of him or knew Of MS
whereabouts. Since then, however ht
has made known his whereabouts t'
his wife and brother but has stead
fastly refused to return, even thougi
urged to do 50 by both repeatedly.
"Their motive" said Mr.. BOggs. iii
wanting him to return is THAT thel
realize that il is only a question o
time when his sureties will succeed il
running him down. when the punish
ment due him will be meted out, an
that it would be better TO take tina
punishment and be over with 1t.
''By doing this" he continued hi
brother would be relieved, not only o
/ the constant fear of arrest and anNiet
| concerning his family, but his restora
ton to them would be that muc
sooner accomplished" He would no
however. he said, advise his brother
return if it was solely to further IN
/ political ambition and schemes or cei
tain Delaware politicians.

point he wanted to still remain out

White objected, and after a lengthy

SUSPICIOUS PROWLING
MEN SEEN sKULKING NEAR PRI-

During the past week, several men
have been noticed around here acting
very suspiciOusly. The fact of the men
being strangers is what attracted at
tention to their questionable vista
tlons. On Friday night last, one OF
them was noticed walking back and
forth before a North Third street resi-
dence, watching it closely. He then
went into the park, and kept up his
surveillance from behind one of the
big elms there.
The mistress of the house, noticing
his peculiar actions, came TO the front
door, whereupon the watcher hurried
away. Other houses have been under
espionage during the recently passed
days and the actions are occasioning
