the city’s streets, much to the delight
of most, of the people of the country
and about 100,600 from the outside.
Many of the local clergy left town

sented bv a vaudeville actress who has
been posing In living pictures. She

waving hair and clouds of gauge.

beauty and piety. She begged her hus
band to reduce the heavy taxation of

by her long hair. Some veralons of
the legend say tho people remained

LEFI BEDSIDE OFD IN G SON
TO RESCUE A LITTLE GIRL
Fate played one of Its odd tricks
when It decreed that the only witness
to the accident to little Bernice Mor
gan should be J. A. Murdock, who waa
•t that very momtnt sitting at the
bedside of his dying boy.
The little girl toddled out of the sfard
of her home, 59 Howell street, and out
Into the street Tuesday. A dray was
passing and she fell In front ot It. A
wheel passed over one foot, but owing
i small hole In the pavement she
was not badly hurt.
Mr. Murdock was sitting beside his
boy, who, after an Illness of several
weeks, has been told that he cannot
live but a few days. The father ran
uut, picked up the little girl and car
ried ner Into ner own home. Then he
ran bark, fearing that the excitement
might have proved to be a shock that
hud extinguished the last spark of Ufo
In his boy.
The child was still alive, however,
t.ml Wednesday Mr. Murdock appeared
In the recorder's court, where he had
been summoned as a witness against
Oscar Devine, the negro driver of the
dray that ran over the little girl. Mr.
Murdock explained the matter to the
recorder, who continued the case to al
low him to return to his son.

putes arose and soon a race riot was
In progress. The mounted police rode
down the crowds, but fighting was not
stopped until the reserves from the old
