 Yesterday afternoon Patrolmen Kiersted and Neagle started over North Leonard street and those that saw them hurrying realized that something was on and took the trail. Before the coppers had gone far they must have had more than a thousand people after them. It seems a couple of women relieved some man of his money and he called the police to get 1t back for him. No arrests were made but 1t is understood the gentle man was refunded his wallet before the officers departed.
 The horse of Joseph Balthrush took another canter for himself this morning and covered a steeplechase course in such fast time that the owner is seriously thinking of plac- ing 1t in some of the coming events on the New York tracks. The horse started on Porter street, turned up Bank, down Sixth onto Charles, bare- ly missing a wagon at this turn. It went over Charles street as though 1t were a speedway and when 1t reached Bank 1t was still travelling some. Near the Mahaney building 1t struck the Borchardt wagon and as 1t turned the corner onto North River side street 1t swung It's wagon against Dr Russells carriage. A wheel on the doctors vehicle was put in shape fof the repair shop. Before the runaway could get under headway again Matt Shannahan stopped 1t. Although no official time was taken the horses cov- cred the course in very few minutes.
 Victor Buloto, the 6-year-old son of Mir and Mrs Adam Buloto of 776 Bank street, almost lost his life Sat- urday by drinking large quantity of beer and liquor. If 1t were not for the prompt arrival of Dr George Rus sell after the boy had become uncon- scious and the effective use of stom- aeh pump the youth would in all probability have died. The boy was attending the reception which follow ed the wedding of Miss Eva Ankin- sute and Frank Stuto which took Friday after a weeks courtshIp. Early Saturday morning 1t Is said the boy was first given a little beer and he liked 1t so well that whenever he got a chance he took a sip of the refreshing beverage. As he had ann pie opportunity to get whiskey and beer during the day, he was well loaded by night. Early in the even ing. shortly after partaking of his supper, the boy collapsed. The incl dent was the cause of all the guests departing for their homes.
