A CoNUNDRUM PROPOUNDED - For
several DAYS past rumors have been in cir
culation that Mat Hogan is on the police

The Board of Police Commissioners, yes

. resolution requiring Superintendent Loan
to furnish information in the case, to state
whether Hogan was employed or not,
either directly Or indirectly.

AN INTERESTED THIRD PARTY.-Last
evening Frank Skillman and his wife had
family quarrel, when Eugene Dallls stepped
in to make peace. Skillman did not like
such interference in his pleasures, so turned
on the peace commissioner and showed
mere fight. Dallis felt compelled to resort
to cold steel to get him out of his troubles
and drew a dirk which he used on Skill
man, cutting his right side so seriously that
the wounded man concluded to take rest.
