DEATH FROM HYDRoPHoBIA.-This morn
ing the people in the vicinity of Locust and
Juniper streets were thrown into a wild state OF
excitement by report being circulated that
a man had been poisoned. Our reporter re-
paired TO the spot, and elected the following
tacts:-lt appears that q man named Daniel
Galliger was employed some time since as a
hostler at the Green and Coates Railway depot.
He left there, and obtained the same position at
the stables of the Chestnut and Walnut streets
llne Alter he was installed IN the lastnamed
place, he forgot his curry-comb and brush, and
went TO his former place to get it. On the way
dog followed him. He got the articles he
wanted, and returned. When in the stable he
asked friend 'If he was good judge of dogs ?"
| The friend replied, Let me look at his teeth"
| Galliger opened the dogs mouth to make an
| inspection OF the worries, when the dog shut it
! rather suddenly, GalligerS hand receiving a
| slight wound on the left thumb. The blood
| flowed little, but nothing was thought of it.
About o'clock on Monday morning last, he
complained Of being sick and very cold. His
brother-in-law told him he was not sick, and
wanted to give him some water, but he pushed
away the vessels handed him. He kept getting
worse About quarter of IL he commenced
to froth at the mouth, and at 1915 death put an
end to his sutferings. Deceased was about
forty years of age.
A MODEL TAILORING ESTABLISHMENT

established and well-known emporium of all

of fabrics of the latest manufacture, necessary
to the tuu equipment OF model establishment,
are constantly being received. Special attention
is given to the cutting department, and the
prOpretors assure all their patrons that gar

DIRECTED TO PURcHAsE.-At a meeting
| of the Grand Lodge, A. 7. NJ, of Pennsyl-
vania, held last evening at the Masonic Temple
| Chestnut street. above Seventh the committee
| on selecting a site for the new temple were in
| structed TO purchase from Messrs. Harrison
| Wetherill the lot at Broad and Fllbert streets,
| for the purpose of erecting thereon a new
Masonic Hall. This property has four fronts
| on Broad, Filbert, Juniper, and Cuthbert The
| price is 1858, 900, which is considered reason
| able. Possession is to be given to the Masonic
| committee on the first of July proXimo, when
| the work of demolition will commence. The
new structure will of course be an ornament to
the square and the city; and with the four
| churches near it, will make the region one of
| our municipal wonders.
! THE THUNDER STORM LAST NIGHT
| Last evening ushered in light showers of rain
| that continued at intervals until IL O'Clock.
| Before that time the sky would clear off and the
| stars would shine after each shower. But about
| IL o'clock the entire heavens were overcast, and
! heavy fall Of rain commenced, accom- panied
| with vivid flashes of lightning and heavy thun-
der The thunder was particularly heavy IN
| direction south of the city. 1t appears that
| from this point south the storm ragged with
| great fury. Through Maryland and Virginia
| the line OF the storm was marked with very
| visible evidences of Its destructive power. In
our city the only effect Is a more cleanly Condi-
| tion of our streets and foOtwalks-a thing that
| we have long wished for, until the storm did
what the authorities could or would not do.
CARRYING CONCEALED WEAPONS

years, and residing at No. 706 s. Fifth street.

| This he used in manner to induce fears for the
individual safety OF the 6ystanders near store
at Twelfth and Lombard street. Officer Barr
arrested him. and Alderman Morrow held him
| in $500 bail 10 appear at Court. 1t appears that
Dougall had been working tor another person,
| and when he demanded his money the other
| refusing on the plea of being out of funds,
| Archy drew forth the pistol, iniimating thereby
your money or your life"
