STILL MORE RUNAWAYS.
ACCIDENT NARROWLY AVERTED.

Two runaways created much ex-
element at late hours yesterday
afternoon on Main street and several
persons came near getting seriously
hurt as a result of the runaways.
A heavy team of horses attached to
a farm wagon were standing in front
of the Ramsey blacksmith shop on
west Main street when they became
frightened and started to run at
fast rate up Main street toward the
business section. They broke from
the wagon before they had gone more
than a block At the corner of 4th
and Main there were several vehic-
les and the team narrowly escaped
running into a surrey containing sew
eral ladies' The runaways turned
south into Fourth street and Miss
Nellie Weir, who was crossing the
street just reached the sidewalk in
front of Sampliners in time to miss
the frightened horses, the young lady
had a close call. The horses turned
into the alley in the rear of Sam
pliners, efforts of several men to
stop them proved in vain. The runa-
ways went down the alley to Fifth
street, turning into Fifth street and
east into Colorado avenue. and in
front of Flucken's carriage he-sse
the horses fell and thei- -sian ngerous
flight was over. TIE runaway ere
ated more excitement than any SINH
lar escapade occurring in the city in

fell and the other horse dragged the

SAN PEDRO, June 6,-The launching
of the new steamer City of Long Beach,
which was scheduled to take place at
the Fulton shipyards at Terminal to-
morrow morning, has been postponed
for two reasons. The first is that the
new boat is not near enough finished to
launch and the other is because of low
tides. When the next high tide comes
aolng, in about a month, the vessel
will be ready to slip into the bay.
The Dodson ranch, tract of land on
which the family of that name live and
have resided on for many years and
lying almost in the heart of the resi-
dence section OF the city, has at last
been plated and surveyed for the plac-
ing of it on sale, which will take place
at once.

cries About Burglars
speclaI to The Herald.

| Special to The Herald.
i YPSILANTI, Mich, June 6.-"Helpl
helpl Some ones trying to rob me!
oh! he's choking mel He's trying to
kill me-"
Thus cried Miss Smith, pretty
young Normalite roomer at the home
of Benjamin o. Depew, just before
o'clock i'm the morning recently. Other
embryo teachers, of whom there were
half dozen in the house, opened their
eyes at the strange alarm, and, showing
remarkable courage, rushed to the
scene of the attempted burglary. F'lut-
tering around in their nighties, they
inquired for the details.
Hysterical from her fright, Miss
Smith recounted the story as best she
could. In effect she said:
when I awoke it was with the feel
ing that there was some one in the
room. Then felt hand grip my neck.
/ seemed to be choking, but l grabbed
my little bag of money, containing $50,
tied with a string to my neck, and held
on tight. with my other hand pushed
at the person who was choking me and
cried for help. He backed away and at
a short distance threw something at
my head. 1t hit the wall and 1 escaped
unhurt."
Just as she was finishing her story.
which, bv the way was often inter-
rupted by little outbursts of the other
girls, Chief of Police Gage and one or
two of his men arrived at the Depew
home all out of breath. 1t isn't often
that Ypsilanti has a real live burglar,
and Chief Gage didn't propose to let
one escape his dragnet.
The chief and his men resorted to all
the customary precautions for handling
big case. Among other things they
looked for the place where the burglar
had entered the house and where he had
made his escape. They found neither.
The chief carefully questioned Miss
Smith, and with some trepidation she
recounted the whole story, the other
girls assisting her to tell it.

"Any other purses lying around and

''He didn't get mine," said one girl.
"Nor mine," said another.
Chief Gage started for the door.
"What do you make of it?" asked
the bravest of the Normalites
"Rarebit-a cents worth of DOPE"
said the chief, and he and his men
trudged off for their homes.

MURDER STILL A MYSTERY
Marshal Reid Discovers Owner of
Handkerchief Found Near Lo=
gan's Body
lcial to The Herald.


PASADENA, June 6.-The Logan
murder mystery continues to be the
cause of much comment in this city.
No arrests have yet been made by the
authorities, although the numerous
clews have been accommodating in the
hands of the authorities for upwards Of
two weeks.
To a novice they appear to afford
about all of the evidence needed to
warrant an arrest but all of the off,
GERS who are making a study of the
case appear to think otherwise
Marshal Reid of South Pasadena
stated today that he has finally traced
the ownership of the handkerchief
found near the place of the murder
and that it belongs to a white man in
this city. Some days ago Reid stated
that in his opinion the handkerchief
had no connection whatever with the
murder; now he is studying that all
legged clew with renewed interest
The crude mask found lying on
Logan's body is said to bear evidence
of having been made by some person
skilled with the needle and shears and
not one purchased for the occasion and
this is believed by some to be import
ant.
Sheriff White is still working on the
case, as are the local police, but ac-
cording TO reports are no nearer finding
the murder than they were on the day
of the crime.

CHILD RIDES BRAKE ROD
Four-Year-oId Boy Has Miraculous
Escape Between JoIting Cars.
Bears. No Scratch
special to The Herald.


LA CROSSE, Wis, June 6.-Four-
year-old George Kuster took one of the
most amazing rides in railroad history
Friday. For eight miles, travelling at
forty miles an hour and over one of the
roughest bits of railroad in Minnesota,
the child was carried, absolutely un-
hurt clinging to a cross rod between
two box cars and under the coupling,
his feet resting on the brake beam.
When rescued, the boy was laughing.
Georges extraordinary ride began at
the Wyckoff Mimi, station of the Mil
waukee road, where he escaped from
his father, Prof. George Kuster, and
crawled beneath a freight train. A
few minutes later the train pulled out.
When the train disappeared 1t was
found the child also had vanished.
Between Wyckoff and Fountain, the
next station, eight miles away, there is
steep down grade and rough road
bed. over these eight miles the child
was whirled, resting between the cars
where he had ensconced himself in the
Wyckoff depot, and saved by some ex-
traordinary chance from falling to
death on the ties beneath.
At the Fountain siding the train
came to a standstill and George, in the
best of humor with the world, was
found by Conductor William Plummer.
The child was not even scratched, and
his white dress scarcely soiled. Train
men declare the ride to be one of the
miracles of railroading. ."
