A disturbance yesterday morning suddenly
aroused the neighborhood of carp street, of
which VIM. Mornin is a denizen and a bright aud
shining light Mr.. Mornin first took his station
before the house to listen to the internal strife.
Catching the warlike infection, he ventured upon
the threshold, and then peered in at the door.
While he was gloatiug upon the prowess of the
maternal head of the family, who bid defiance
to all the rest of the belligereut family, he was
disturbed by youDgster named David O'Leary,
aged fourteen years, who ordered him to quit in
staDter. Whether the lad struck Mornin first,
or Mornin was the aggressive party, is yet In
doubt
We know, however, that the fracas was ended
by Mornin's striking the lad upon the head with
a billet of wood, and knocking him senseless.
This finale caused the utmost CONSERVATION.
The injured boy was carried to st. Joseph's
Hospital, where at the latest accounts he lay
half stupefed, and in an exceedingly critical
condition. He is not expected to survive.
MorDin was taken in charge by officer and
committed to prison to await the result of the
injuries he inflicted on his youthful opponent.

% Bank streeD of Hecht Brothers, of New
York importers of fancy and notion goods has
not been seen at his lodging house, No. 1908
Race street, since O'Clock Sunday evening,
9th instant at which time, after lighting the gas
in his lodgings, he went out of the house. His
friends are in great distress at this mysterious
disappearance. An examination of the clothing
and papers In his lodgings aud in his place of
business gives no clue whatever to his
absence. Everything, on the contrary, denotes
that it Is not the result of any premeditation,
which, together with his strictly temperate
habits, integrity of character, and quiet de-
meanor, leads to the most serious apprehensiens
regarding him. So far all the efforts of the
police and detective force have failed to elicit
the slightest trace of his whereabouts. He
is very slightly built, feet 8 inches high,
has dark hair and a smooth and very thin face.
He is thirty years of age, but looks very much
younger, and was always neatly dressed in dark
clothing. He had on a low-crowned soft hat,
carried gold watch, with gold face and wore
large seal ring. Any information left with
the Chief of Police, or at Mr.. Kissams lodgings
No. 1908 Race street, will relieve his parents and
friends greatly.
