Caused a Scare.

| There was considerable excitement
0 nthe east side of the city last night,
owing to the action of an individual
who endeavored to enter a number
residences on Sixth avenue east, and
hi sactions not only badly frightened
the ladies in that locality but came
near breaking up political meeting
which was being held at the opera
house.
The man who caused all the trou-
BILE is still at large and has, no doubt,
put many miles between himself and
the officers, who were called in answer
to telephone a message from the resi-
dence of Mrs. Schagel, who had been
requested to send it by Mrs. Schultz
A strange man had knocked at the
door and asked if "Alex," lived there
was no perso nby that name residing
in the neighbOrhood he attempted to
force an entrance into the house.
Mrs. Schultz forced the door shut
and ran to an upstairs window, where
she called to Mrs. Schlagel who tele-
phOned for the officers. When the
officers arrived they could find no
trace Of the man owing to the dark
ness. Officer Hannah and Sheriff
Hubart were assisted by Messrs Reed
Schlagel, Burch and Smith in the
search. Owing to the fact that the
officers were in the opera house, their
sudden departure caused many to be-
lieve that there was serious trouble
and they were followed from the build
ing by most of the audience.
