"A BAD CASE At Burke's Bill
lard Saloon on Saturday night last
an Irishman named William Fealcy
was struck on the head with a bill,
lard cue, by John A, Paul, propri,
etor of the Livery and FeedsStabl(
on the alley East of Fayette street
The Irishman was intoxicated al
the time, and we understand pro-
voked Mr.. Paul tc striking him by
abusive language. Fealey was Ia
ken, after being struck, out of the
saloon to a coal shed in the rear,
where he lay all night, without any
attention, and was found next
morning nearly dead. His skull
was fractured by the blow. He has
been lying in very critical condi-
ton since, with scarcely any hopes
of his recovery. Mr. Paul was ar
rested on Sunday and gave bail for
his appearance for trial. We give
the particulars as we have learned
them, without comment.

- On Saturday, as the Madison
Mills Silver Band was passing
along Court Street, discoursing live
ly strains of music, the bride OF
one of the wheel horses attached
to their wagon, came off by some
means, and the driver in attempt
ing to bring the horses to a halt,
run the tongue of the vehicle into
the lead horses, whereat all four of
the animals took occasion to in
dulge in a general kicking frolic,
bringing the music to rather an alb
rupt termination. Matters looked
very favorable for a runaway and
smashup for a few minutes, but the
horses were finally quieted without
done any damage further
than staving in the front end Of
the band wagon a little.
