F.tta Hoc, about ten year of age, wan
knocked down on Kbth street near Bond
by a piiing lior-e ridden by an piic
triciiiic, and enuic williin an ace of lad
ing trampled to death ; so near indeed,
that one of the lior-c hmiH cut a lock
of tli child' hair from it head clone
to the scalp. The girl wn not injured
olherwie titan by such bruic a she
got in the fall, and the nervous strain
to which nhe U till subjected. The rid

on Monday afternoon. It Is alleged by
witnesses that while the parent lnl
Barr down, the son kicked and b at
Barr breaking several ribs, breaking
hi nose, and otherwise injuring the
helpless man. Luckily there were oth
ers near, and the thug were prevented
from continuing their work which would
undoubtedly have resulted in his death
had the blows been repeated much long
er. The men were arrested and held
under :!Hl bail each for their arraign
ment in the Justice Court today. At
torney Fmnk Spittle will assist Depu
ty Prosecuting Attorney Aliererombie

out any success whatever, owing to the
