drew Barberi, 16 years old, and Ed
ward Teur, Is years old. The boys
were charged with rowdyism on street

mothers were told that no further punish
ment would be imposed provided the boys
were taken into the private room Of the
court and strapped to the satisfaction Of

the duty with cheerfulness and the howls
from the other side of the door caused the
justice to smile grimly, and seemed to
have a salutary effect on the other youth

Omaha daily bee., 1909-06-18

afternoon, when a steer escaped from the
stock yards and in a mad race through the
streets in the vicinity dashed into a store,
knocked down a policeman and tossed a
man into a crockery shop before the fren-
zied animal wal captured.
When the steer reached the store Of
Demarest & E%reckman, at 50S West Forty
fourth street, It dashed into the doorway
and ran along a passage thanked by show
cases until 1t reached the elevator in the
rear. in which James Meehan, the operator,
was seated. The spectacle of a steer seek
ing to enter his elevator gave Meehan a
distinct shock, but he had presence Of
mind enough to pull his lever and the car
shot upward.
The disappearance OF the car frightened
the animal, which now turned and ca
vorted out of the store into the street. The
place was barren Of customers at the time
and, except for the fright suffered by the
clerks, some of whom sought refuge be-
meath the counter, the visitation vas
harmless.
On %regaining the side walk the animal
galloped to Ninth avenue, thence to Forty
fifth street and west toward Tenth ave-
nue.. The clamor attracted the attention
OF Policeman Backus, OF the Forty-second
street station, who blew his whistle for
aid. Efforts were made to head off the
steer as it dashed into Tenth avenue, and
now for the first time the animal showed
its mettle when it charged the crowd that
was backing up Backus. The policeman
was knocked down and the animal ran
over his body without doing him any in
jury.
James Donohue, one of the persons in the
crowd, was not so fortunate. The steer
caught him before he could escape and
tossed him into the show window Of a
crockery store at No. 655 Tenth avenue, a
distance of more than ten feet. Donahue
suffered severe bruises about the face and
hands.

would go 10 the shed and fetch in the
coal without speaking to his wife. When
meals were ready Mrs. Puiver would
