by a Policeman, Falls and Frac-
lures His Skull.

fatally injured last night while at
tempting to gain entrance in the rear
of Woodward's Pavilion to view the
bull fight. While being chased by Po-
liceman M. Murphy of the City Hall
station Thompson tripped over curb
ing and fell, striking his head on the
asphalt of the street.
The injured man was hurried to the
Receiving Hospital, where DR.. Kucich
discovered a fracture at the base OF
the skull.
Several young boys say they heard
that the policeman struck Thompson,
knocking him down against the curb.
A woman is said to have made this
statement also. though no one could
be found who actually saw the acci-
dent.
Policeman Murphy says he saw
gang of boys trying to open the rear
door of the pavilion. He ran toward
them, chasing Thompson. He says
the man tripped over the curb and fell,
striking his head. Murphy denies
that he struck him.
Thompson will probably die. He is

Pony Races Are Postponed.

Owing to the heavy rains of the past
few days 1t has been deemed advis-
able by the officials of the California
Polo and Pony Racing Association to
postpone the matinee races scheduled
for Saturday on the private track of
Charles w. Clark at San Mateo. The
meeting will be held one week later,
February 4, weather permitting.
The meeting is intended as a friend
ly gathering, and as the track has
been unfit for training and would be
unsafe for racing, 1t was thought best
to postpone 1t one week.

In the fall of 1895 Icontracted that fear
full disease, Blood Poison. It gained such
headway that I was forced to resign my
position and seek relief at Hot Springs.
After spending all the means had went
to Memphis. In less than three weeks I
was in hospital, and after nine weeks of
suffering I was discharged as cured. In
less than month every bone in my body
seemed to be affected and felt as If they
would break at the least exertion. Again
Twas compelled to resign, and returned
to the hospital for a seven weeks stay.
When I came out was advised to try
farming. When I first went on the farm I
prevailed on the only firm who handled
drugs to get me one dozen bottles of S. S.
S. At that time both of my hands were
broken out with blisters and I was covered
with boils and sores In the meantime my
druggist had gotten two dozen bottles of
S. S. S. for me and began its use, and
sore or boil was visible. R. B. POWELL.

Distressing Accident.

just about dusk Tuesday evening,
while Masters John Quarles and Adj
lai Evans were riding horseback
along in front of Capt. Guy Jacks
residence and when just at the south
east corner of the premises, young
Evans horse ran into u COW, and
the rider, horse and COW were piled
in a promiscuous heap in the road
way. The animals quickly scram-
bled to their feet, but the boy lay
motionless.
The accident was witnessed by Mr..
Ed Irby and Frank Woods (%colored),
who fastened to the scene, and after
dispatching young Quarles for a doc
tor, picked up the unconscious form
and laid it on the bridge. Others
quickly gathered, and restoratives
were applied, but in vain, and the
little fellow was later removed to
Capt. Jacks residence. DR.. ii. w.
Rencher arrived a few minutes after
and took charge Of the case.
The doctor remained with the boy
all night, and yesterday morning
gentle hands placed the little body
on a cot and kind friends carried
him to the home of his mother. AT
this writing, while 1t is known that
no bones We're broken, the child had
not regained consciousness, and the
doctor could not tell positively as to
the result Of the injuries, though he
had strong hopes of his patients
ultimate recovery.
The injured boy is the Oldest child
of Mrs. d. B. Evans, and the blow
to her is an exceedingly hard one
Just at this time. In h%ertrouble she
has the sympathy of the entire COM
munity, and the prayer of all is that
God will spare. to her this bright
young son that in the years to come
he may prove to her a source of
strength and comfort.
The condition of Adlai Evans this
morning is about the same. He has
as vet recognized no one, and cannot
take nOurishment.
