TR WEST TOWN, The West Town Convention of the National party was beld in Maskell Hall last_evening for the purpose of nominating a ticket. About fifty delegates were preseut, all the West Side vards being ropresented, aud Charles G. Dixon was called to the ehair, and J. P. (vers, Secre- tary. A wreat deal of talk was [ndulged in re- garding the elisibility of candidates end their antecedents, but by 11 o'clock the following ticket was put iu the ficld: Supervisor, Thomas P. Jones, onc of the foremen at the North Chicago Relline-Mills, who claims to have been an fndependent voter in previous elections. e is of Welsh birth. ‘Assessor, Capt. Dao Glessom, a Deputy Sherilf under Frank Agnew; s Union voteran of the Rebellion, and leretofore o Democrat. He s of Irish nationality. Collector, Charles G. Dixon, a former Repub- lican, 2 War veteran, and an active worker in the Workingmen’s party last full. He is o manufacturer of house moldings, etc. Heisan American by birth. Town Clerk, John Gittleson, a Scandinayian, 2 former Republican, and a well-to-do citizen, who is engaged as foreman in a ship chandlery. After nominating a Central ana Campaigu Committee, the Convention adjourned. ITEMS. Ttis confidently expected by the fricnds of James II. Rees, and some assurance given, that he would serve as Assessor of the South Town of Chicago for the present year if uominated and clected. A more suitable or better muu could not fill the oflice. The Executive Committee of the Tammany organization talked at each other for about an hour or so yesterday afternoon at 77 Clark street, with William™ McNally in the chair. Aldermanic questions were to have been dis- cussed, but on account of the slim attendance 1o action was taken. The Democrata of the Seventeenth Ward helda meeting in the_store under the Maulton House last eveéning. It wasin the interest of Mr. Walsh as caudidate for Alderman. The epeaking wos not particularly beavy, but the beer-drinking, both before and after, made up in enthusiasm for any lack of orators. A LIFE-PRESERVER. Brilliant Rocord of a New York Policoman— Thirty Persons Rescacd from Drowning in Four Years. New Tork Tridune. Alaw of the United States provides for the awardof 2 gold medal by Congress to persons who in the saving ot lifc have exposed them- selves to great danger. Kecently nn award of this kind was made in this city, the presenta- tion address being delivered by Mayor Ely. A movement is now on foot to press the claims of Officer Thomas MeBride, of the Fourth Precinet, whose night duty for a long time was alonga portion of the water-front of the East River. While on duaty in that precinct, he often exhibited reckless daring in plunging into the river to the rescuc of persous who by accident or desizn were in peril of drowning. In this manner, within the last four years, he has saved the lives of about thirty persons. At this time it bas been impossible to secure the afiidavits of all the persous rescued, among the number being many sea-fariug men and othiers living in distung cities. In the mu- jority of cases, however, the station-house “‘blotters” attest the exploits of McBride, and the atlidavits of Sergts. Taft, of the Fourth Precinet; Grainger, of the Tenth; Therou T. Thompsan, of the Thirtzentn; AndrewJ. Thomp- som, of the Eightcenth; Joseph E. Kelly, of the Tyenticth; andsKeatiug, of the Twenty-ninth, all formerly of the Fourth, testify as to the res- cue of nineteen lives. Upon this record petition s been made for the award of the Congres- £lonal medal to Oflicer McBride, and the papers Dhave been forwarded to Congressman Cox for prescatation. “The history of the many rescues, as taken frowm the aflidavits of the persons saved, or of witnesses, is not without inwrest. In many in- stances it seemed almost certain that two lives would be lost iustead of one. Ou the evening of Aug. 9§, 157, Patrick Hur- y, crazed with_rum, jumped into the river in Pier 33, East River. The cry of “Man overboard!” brought Officer McBride to the spot, and without waiting to remove his uni- form he plunged into the water. Hurley was bent upon suicide, and & bard struggle followed 1o the water. In spite of Hurley’s resistance, MeBride tied a rope thrown to him around the body of the other, and he was drawn to the pler while McBride was picked up by a passing oat. Tn September of - the same year John Dobr- mau, mate of the ship Margaretta, of Rotter- dam, Hollaud, fell overboara froin the same vier. He was intoxicated at the time, and his great weight—over 800 pounds—made an at- tempt at rescue doubly dangerous. The acci- dent oceurred about midnignt, but Officer Me- Bride, in spite of the darkness and the diflicul- ties with which he had tocontend, kept the man above water uutii a boat was lowered from the ship, by which both were picked up. Michigel Regan, u fireman of the steamship City of Loudon, fell overboard from Picr 25, Eat River, on the night of Feb. 6, 1873, whiueé endeavoring in a drunfen way to reach lis ves- sel. The river was full of iloating ice, and a biinding snow-storm was raging. The intense cold of the water and the severity of the storm did not daunt Ofticer McBride, who kept the drowning man afloat until a rope was thrown, by which both were drawn to the pler. In this instance the chill from the water bad a serious effect upon McBride, and a long and dangerous illness followed. In August. 1875, McBride rescued Thomas Tracy, a sboc-dealer, of New Haven, Coun., 0 fell into the river at the foot of Beekman street while intoxicated. In September of the same year, Patrick Mc- Caffrey, of Brooklyn, while intoxicated, and on bLis way home, walked into the water near the place where Officer McBride was on duty. His struegles to save himself made s rescue the more difficuit, but he was kept afloat until a boat was launched, into which he was put by theoflicer. For this act Officer McBride was vresented with a medal by the Life-Saving Be- nevelent Society, of this city, on Jan, 13, 1876, Daufel Sullivan, a chila” of 7 years, fell from Pier 24, East River, on the evening of May 30, 1675, Though there many persons present, no attempt at rescuc was made until Otficer MeBride reached the place. He was then justin time to plunge after the child as it was sinkine for the third time. The little boy had the narrowest possible escape from deatli. Only by prompt and taorough restorative ac- tion was lis lifcbsuv(:d after the policeman had ot hitn out of the water. "The examples given show that McBride's work in rescuing the drowning was often doue under the most_diflicult_cirenmstances. and In the face of peril and suffering which it required gTeat resolution to meet. e worst tempest, the bitterest cold, the ereatest fatigue, the most serious danger to be encountered did not chill the couraze or divert the purpose of this saver of lives. At all seasons of the yesr, and le; in behalf of persons of all ages, classes, and conditions, e braved death. Among the per- £ons not already mentioned who owe to him that thelr lives were preserved, are the follow- ing. The hour in the day when the event oc- curred s given {u each case, to show that Me- Bride’s exploits covered almost all hours of daylight and night, as well as all seasons: 7, East 50 D. m.
