WEST SIDE EVENTS.
fwo Horses Owned by M. F. Wymbs
Badly Roasted at the Dunplof
around on Providence Road.
Two horses owned by M. F. Wymbs,
the Jackson street undertaker and liv
eryman, were burned in a peculiar way
yesterday. One animal, a handsome
black, was shot yesterday, and the
other may have to be dispatched to
end its suffering. George Jones, driv
er for Mr. Wymbs, was carting dirt
yesterday to the common dumping
around, (along the Providence road at a
place where the ball park was.
Kverybody uses the place to get rid
of garbage, old papers, etc. After the
rubbish is dumped It is customary to
fire the stuff. Yesterday morning a
teamster dumped a load of ashes over
the burning material. This acted as a
cover and when Jones drove his horses
up to the garbage ground the off horse
stepped upon and sank through the
ashes. The other horse was also pulled
in and there they lay helpless while the
flames from beneath ate into the flesh.
Thfc driver sprang from his seat and
cut the traces but the two horses were
o tightly embedded in the stuff that
they could not at first be moved out.
Several men lent assistance, and after
quarter hour's work the two snort
ing animals were pulled out. They
were led home, their sides peeling from
the effect of the heat.
The horses were led to the barn and
a representative of Hewitt ended the
sufferings of one, and the other will
doubtless follow. Several hundred dol
lars will cover the loss. Mr. Wymbs
Is in New York.
LIEUT. WILLIAMS SUGGESTS.
Every night after 12 o'clock people
with prescriptions are around looking
for a druggist. Nearly all West Side
pharmacists are averse to responding
to the night bell, and the person with a
prescription has to hunt up the most
obliging. Lieutenant Williams, who
sees all these searchers and often lends
a hand, has suggested a plan whereby
the dllllculty will be remedied. Mr.
Williams thinks that the drug stores
should keep open "on turns." Davtes
one week, Jenkins & Musgrave another,
then Decker, Morgan, shryer, etc. This,
the lieutenant thinks, would pay and
do away with much bother.
STEALING LADDERS, ETC.
Petty thieves are around. Contrac
tors and builders are the sufferers.
Howley Bros., of the central city, lost a
long ladder which was placed against
a house on Eynon street: Williams, of
Jackson street, had a new fire pot and a
quantity of soldering taken from a
house down near Patagonia; Contrac
tor Hugh A. Howell last week lost a
costly extension ladder, which was in
the yard of a house on Hampton street
The thieves are a gang of young men,
and, as names are known, arrests are
not Improbable.

SOUTH SIDE NEWS.
Peter Lambert Was Drunk and Very
DisorderlyThree Members Join
the Century.
Peter Lambert, the Willow street
carpet weaver, got all warped up last
evening In a drunken frolic, and made
It interesting not only for his family,
but also for the neighbors. It was just
between the time the day patrolmen go
off duty and the night squad comes on.
Constable Joseph F. Woelkers lives
not far away, and word was sent to him.
He found Lambert holding high cn
val at home. The trouble agltat.Vg
him was that he could not get any one
to fight with. The constable and an
other man cornered the carpet weaver
and locked him up In the Alder street
station.
THEY RODE THE GOAT.
C. W. Westpfahl, William Smith and
Rudolph Schaffer were initiated as
members of the Century Hose company
last night. A regular meeting was held
and after business was over the exer
cises took place. One of the members
went nut scouting In the afternoon and
got a hardy billy goat, which was lux
uriating on a discarded rubber boot.
The goat was taken to the hose house
and tied with a rope until evening, but
when they went to look for It all that
was left was the piece of the rope which
had not been chewed. They got a
wooden Imitation of a goat, instead,
and used It In the Initiatory programme.
PUT OFF THE CAR.
One of the conductors on the South
Side line refused to accept a Colum
bian half dollar tendered in payment
of fare yesterday by Burt Hackett, of
Flm rtreet, and when Mr. Hackett re
fused to g-ive any other money, the
conductor stopped the car and put Mm
off. The conductor thought It was a
free silver badge and confounded the
profile of Christopher Columbus with
that of Hilly Bryan. "You can't come
any of your monkey business on me,"
suld the conductor as the car pulled
away and left Mr. Hackett behind. The
conductor la a bright young fellow, but
the free silver business must have got
him woefully twisted.

MARKETS AND STOCKS
Wall Street Review.
Nr York. July 31. -Speculation at the
Stock Exchange today, while Irregular
In Its course was in the main firm. At the
start the market was weak on London sell
ing, and prices declined Ha per cent,
outside of Manhattan, which fell nearly
1 per cent, to 87ii on the revival of the
old stories of poor earnings and reduced
dividends. The pressure to sell the gen
eral list was not pronounced by any means
and after 1 o'clock the mri.-ket gudualiy
assumed a firmer tone. The change was
due almost entirely to a sudden rise In 8u
gar of 2 per cent, to UK?,. This stock
figured for nearly 60 per cent, of the day's
business pr.d was In brisk demand, espe
cially In the afternoon trading. Brokers
seemed to be acting for Insiders, and rep
resentatives of a prominent operator were
conspicuous btryers, and It was common
report thr.t the stock sold for Inside ac
count In the neighborhood of 130 had been
repurchased and that lower Wall street
Interests wete in for another bull cam
paign. The advance of 4 per cent, in re
fined was considered corroborative evi
dence by the professionals who bought
the stock. The advance will not be op
posed by Insiders. The jump in the certi
ficates strengthened the general market
and hieher prices were accorded for all
the leading Issues. The St. Paul statement
for June, with Its loss In net earnings 4 f
over 3105,000, had little Influence. Jersey
Central was positively strong, rising 2V4
to 93. the unfavorable report for the first
six months of 1896 having been Ignored.
Reading ruled steady at lOVialoTi; Lacka
wanna brought 150 against 147 the last pre
vious reported sale. Near tile close the
demr.mi for Sugar was less urgent and the'
stock receded to luJ3,. In sympathy the
general market reached Va per cent.,
but In the final tranpactiong speculation
was firm In tone. Net changes show ad
vances of Vi to 14 per cent.: Jersey Cen
tral, 2H. and Lackawanna, 3. Total sales
were 199,426 shares.
