The races at the Driving Park
Saturday afternoon will be well
worth attending , ar Mr. Kevins has
prevailed upon Mr. Williams , of
Chicago , who is en route to Salt
Lake with three fast .horses , " .Nel
lie , " "Henry" and "Chicago , " to
stop here over Sunday , in order to
give our citizens an opportunity to
witness some excellent and rapid
trotting. The programme will be
found in another column. One of
the horses will trot inside of 2:30. :
Between 12 and 1 a. m Tuesday
night the guests of the Metropoli
tan Hotel were aroused from their
slumbers by several loud shrill
shrieks , and thinking that a murder
was being committed somewhereln
the vicinity they got up to learn the
cause of the disturbance. They
found it to be a lady from Lincoln ,
suffering from 'some nervous com
plaint. She was quieted by Dr.
Ijewis , who attended her , and has
been her physician for some time
past. So loud were her screams
that they attracted to the hotel sev
eral policemen.
The picnic at Hanscom Park
Tuesday under the manage
ment of Mr.C. E. Squiers.was a very
pleasant affair. The platform was
illuminated with numerous Chi
nese . lanterns , and as the
happy dancers gracefully glided
hither and thither , to the ex
cellent musicthe scene afforded was
indeed a very happy one. The eve
ning was cool and the moon was
bright , so that all enjoyed them
selves. The two picnics that have
been given by Mr. Squiers this sea
son have proven delightful social
successes , owing to his personal ef
forts to make them so.
A young gentleman who drove
out to Hanscom Park Tuesday even
ing , hitched hjs horse to a tree , and
when he was about to return home
he found his rig gone. For some
little time he was under the impres
sion that some one must have play
ed him a severe practical joke , Vp
borrowing his horse and buggy for a
ride to the city. Finally the thought
struck him that it was against the
rules of the Park to hitch to a tree ,
and he accordingly began looking
along the railing , which has been
put up for tying purposes , and at
last found his turn-out. A hint to
the wise is sufficient.

A Horrible Death A Young Kan Dies
from lockjaw. _
Tuesday evening , a 6 o'clock , a
young man named Samuel Smith
died in Saratoga precinct from lock
jaw. "About a week ago , he ran a
rusly nail into one of his feet , the
woundgiving * him great pain for
several daj's. On Sunday last the
pain ceased , and he thought he had <
quite recovered. In the afternoon
he went out into his melon patch ,
and gathering some melons , car
ried them into his house.
While on the way back , he sud
denly felt the cords of the back of
his neck commence drawing his
head backward , and he became
aware that his jaws were becoming
set He remarked in a laughing
way , but too true , that he believed
that he was getting the lock jaw.
His wife , father and mother-in-law
Mr. and Mrs. Lockwood , all inno
cently made light of the remark.
Supper was announced shortly after
wards and when Mr. Smith tried to
drink some tea from a saucer , he
found he could not get the saucer
in between his teeth , and oven then
they thought it was only a cold.
On Monday morninghoweverthey
came io the sad conclusion as to the
nature of the disease , as his jaws
were firmly set , to open 110 more.
They sent to the nearest doctor ,
which was Dr. Page , of the Bar
racks. He came , and rendered all
the services that man was capable
of doing , and In the meantime Dr.
Bablack was sent for ; but they con
cluded the case a hopeless one , as
spasms had already set in. They
continued more frequent and severe
until they were incessantup to 6
o'clopk last evening , when death
stepped in and relieved the poor
man from one of the most horrible
deaths , not excepting hydrophobia , i
on earth.
During the last thirty-six hours
of his lifo ho was faithfully attend
ed by Franklin Baker , who did
everything to alleviate his suffer
ings.
ings.The
The deceased was but twenty-six
years of age , and had been married
only three weeks. The funeral took
place yesterday afternoon.
An Impudent Intruder.
Yesterday morning a man nanjed
Ruby , who lives at the corner of
llth and Chicago , entered the
Police Court , and made complaintof
the disgraceful conduct of one
Raight. It appears that Ruby is
employed at the Checkered stable
On Harney street , and sleeps there
at night. KOHIP tme } before dayr
light yesterday morning , Raight ,
being aware of Ruby's ' absence from
home , slyly entered his house , and
proceeding to the bed chamber of
Mrs. Ruby , placed his hands upon
her. She awoke and screaming out ,
gave the alarm to her sis.tpr. ltoighi

sd the door slightly , and in answer
to her inquiry fur his \rlfebe told her

then returned home , and when her
lusband came , she informed
