Illzabeth street in the Heighbor-
hood of seventh was disturbed about
$50 this morning by an outbreak
of appalling screams from one of the
residences thereon. Several valiant
cavaliers rushed to sne rescue in "a
riOus states of undress uniform. Up
on arriving they found an entirely
innocent and rather frightened Pc
liceman on the side porch of the
house, whose presence there ne ex-
planned was due to the reUest of a
friend who desired to be called for
the absurd $50 train. The police
man made the right call, but, unfort-
unately. at the wrong hOuse,-hence
the commOtiOn.
