"Ciack-ciack-clack," sounded the
ample hoofs OF Sarsfleld Aboo on the
wet and shiny pavements until Eighth
street and Fifth avenue was reached.
At that crossing Jehu Ford endeav-
ored to urge Sarsfield Aboo across the
car tracks ahead of an automobile
proceeding from east to west.
The automobile struck the rear
right wheel OF the cab and swung Il
about so violently that Ford was
Jared from his seat and fell sprawl
ing to the street. With loud honk
OF the horn the automobile sped west
and Sarsfield Aboo, elevating his
head and tail, sped north.
Feeling the call OF the wild or
something, Sarsfield Aboo extended
himself with every jump. BY the time
Ne reached Ninth street he was NOV

the stretch under whip and spur.

stature and cool OF mind. saw the
runaway coming. With busineaslike

cab would have to come between

Delehanty grabbed the bride and
hung on. Harrington got the reins

 This is one of the now famous Glendale boOt1egging cases which have several times been before the state and United States court but which for one reason or another have been dismissed
 One of the cases came up q week ago just after the states case against Cruz was dismissed but it was then found that the government was tenn poTarily without the evidence neces- sary to hold the defendant to the United States grand jury.
 It was found that the witness upon whom both the government and the state were principally relying was a convict on parole and therefore his testimony was not admissible It was said at the time that there were ether witnesses but they were not tfen available.

ADJUSTMENTS

The Empress theater was filled to capacity last night to witness the new, and by the way, the final bill of The Founders Musical Comedy company, which closes it's engagement here Sunday night, leaving for Tue son Monday.

While there they engage to save their own necks and make a barrel of money by sailing into the Andes to secure a historic statue of the AZtecs. to please the president of the republic. The girl saves the ne- cessity of the impossible trip by play ing statue and her neck is saved by Heine who has first posed as an inn ported king and then takes the young woman's place and bluffs out the blind and frightened president, all sailing away to "Skinskinnati' in safety. The musical numbers are as numerous as ever and as good, per haps better, than ever. Miss Davis appears to excellent advantage in a special rendition of The Rosary" a beautiful song that finds no place in the story but does give her an oppor- tunity for the display of her eX- ceptiOnally fine voice and her evident musical training. As an encore she sings. When You and I Were Young, Maggie" Earl Hall, who plays an important part all the way through, made a special hit last night in sing ing and dancing the Alamo Rag accompanied by the chorus. They were called back as long as strength and breath remained.
 Next week the Empress will open with a season of special picture shows of which full announcement will be made in due season. The big feature will be a film entitled The Post Photographer" a story of the plains and the early days in which the presence of one familiar with the Morse language saves the lives of many from an Indian massacre by tapping a telegraph wire and sending news of their necessity to the near est post.

THE COLISEUM

The new bill at the Coliseum is drawing splendidly and merits fine pat ronage. Watts and Lucas an English team of rare talent puts on a line of novel singing and dancing including a special feature known as the ScarecrOw dance. The costumes carry out the name anI the dance itself is a veritable scarecrow, though highly amusing one. Another particular feature is the individual work of Miss Lucas who is a ccntortionist as we'll as a dancer and singer Manchester and Wensley do a comedy singing and talking act that is full of jokes as well as music. Emil Spatz Is also putting in another week at the Coliseum with his illustrated songs and those who have heard him before know that he is always good to hear again. The photoplays are new and entertaining while the news slides are more than usually so, including a number of scenes from the recent democratic convention in Baltimore.
