BOYS KILLED A HORSE.
Tried a Wild West Stunt and Have AMI
NAL to Pay For.

A quartette of 17-year-old boys. while
practicing a wild west stunt this morn
ing, caused the wrecking of a buggy
and the death of a horse, and find them
selves under arrest and confronted with
a lot of damages to pay.
The boys, Rex Gibson, Harry Tfgner,
Ray AGcLatchey and Charles Erickson
started out in the country for a ride.
The four of them rode three horses, Rex
Gibson having hired a horse from H.
J. Tutcher, a hveryman. They went
on Seventh street, and began to race,
and at Taylor street the horse ridden
by Gibson ran into a buggy driven by
o. S. Morrow. Both shafts of Morrow s
buggy were broken, and one shaft
punctured the horse ridden by Gibson.
The horse died in a few minutes. All
the boys were arrested, but they will
probably escape by paying for the horse
and the damage to the buggy.

CITY Makes a saving

Thus far the city health department
which cost the city last year upwards
of $4,000, has saved $1.S80.46 from
March to October inclusive over the
corresponding months of 1904 Dur
ing that period last year it cost the
city s6,319.S8. this year the expense
has been $4,439.42. A big saving was
made during the month of October,
last year it was S1,089.30. this year
S420.S3. The fact that the city no
longer places guards in front Of every
building that is quarantfned and that
quarantined families are no longer
supported at the expense of the city
are the two principal reasons why the
expense has been reduced
