The Doctors Strike.

The backbone OF the strike of the ply
sicians against the ruling of court COM
polling them to give evidence as experts,
without compensation as such, has virtu-
ally been broken, the Judge of the Mari
on County Circuit Court deciding to the
contrary, and in favor OF the physicians.
Messrs Davenport and Dovener, the at
torneys interested in the evidence sought
10 be obtained, are not satisfied with the
decision, however, and, We understand,
propose taking an appeal to the higher
court.

organ Busted.

Day before yesterday, while Mr. Lewis
Asmus was driving q horse attached to q
wagon containing cabinet organ, over
the crossing at the intersection of Eoff
and Thirty third streets, he met with
quite an accident. The jar when the
wheels of the wagon struck the crossing
caused the organ to "jolt' out OF the
wagon, and striking the ground with
great violence, it was totally demolished

False Alarm.

About O'Clock last evening some con-
siderable excitement was occssiOned at
tie Opera drug store by dense volume
o smoke, comirg over the roof and ap-
p rently out OF the building. An in.
' .tigalion proved the fact that the
smoke came from the large smoke stack
at Pollock's mill, on the opposite side of
the street, and WAS blown over the drug
store by the action of the wind.

early depression was most marked in
Lake Shore and Western Union, both OF
which stocks were sold freely. The de
cline was assisted by the reports that
some of the remaining bulls OF the
Twenty third street party were getting
out of their stock. Later there was u
sharp demonstration against the Granger
stocks, and Northwestern aud ST. Paul
were pressed Tor sale on reports of de-
creased earnings. Coal stocks were weak
for Lsckswanns at the opening on the
denial of the reports Of new coal com.
bination. Subsequently there was de-
mand for stocks to cover short
contracts, and the bulls also came 20
the rescue, when the market advanced
to I per cent. AT the second board the
market became dull and the recovery
was partially lost. Later in the day the
market WAS characterized by consldera-
Bile depression, partly on account of the

KRISS KRINGLE'S HOME.

Display of Holiday Goods By Adams &
Bro.
One week from tomorrow will be
Christmas and thousands of little ones
will be made happy from visit of "Old
Kriss" who will leave behind him some
token of his love and appreciation of
those whom he will visit upon his annual
tour.
In order to supply the large trade,
Adams * Bro. of the great variety store
have laid in an immense stock of all
kinds of Christmas goods, ranging in
price from one cent up to $50. In order
TO accommodate their large and increas
ing trade they have been obliged to rent
the large third story room of the build
ing No. j04 Market street. In this room
which is under the immediate charge of
MIR. j. X. Adams, they have stored thou
sands upon thousands of toys, consisting
of China vases, wooden fowls, animals,
houses, barns, stab les, dishes, jumping
jacks, and everything that can be men
toned in the way of toys. Around the
room is displayed walnut chamber sets,
kitchens containing a full set of cooking
utensils, sleds, baby coaches, hobby
horses, express wagons, velocipedes, train
of cars, attached to whistling locomo-
tives, masks, and hundreds of other arti-
cles that it would take up too much space
to mention, but before leaving the room,
glance must be taken at the glass cases
containing the dolls. Here is large
number of dolls, of all kinds, with rosy
cheeks and dark hair, With animated
looks, and also among the number car
be found the demure looking doll. One
of the dolls which attracts agreat amount
of attention is a blonde over four feel
high and valued at $50.

WHAT THE PEOPLE SAY

EDITOR OF THE GAZETTE-Sir.-No
one acquainted with the sentimental
Character Of the chairman of the special
committee appointed TO act in coniunc-
tlon with the Water Committee in max
ing arrangements for the celebration of
the semi> centennial anniversary of the
City Water Works and filling of the new
basin, can be surprised at the ludicrous
ana eXtravagant programme adopted for
celebrating an event OF so little import
ance. Why does not the corporation to
which that amiable (only that and moth
ing more) chairman belongs, make such
an ostentatious demonstration and gor-
mandlZe at the raie of $3.50 per head
whenever 1t launches ship or accom-
plishes any other enterprise of no less
Importance thau filling new basin with
water? That banquet at which two
hundred and fifty favored gentlemen will
dine Tomorrow evening at $3.50 per
capita, will cost 1925 and not one voice
in Council raised in protest against that
eXtravagant waste of money. If the eX-
pendltnre of certain sum of money is
absolutely necessary to commemorate
passing events of no more moment
than this, l think higher standard of
public virtue could be transmitted by Civ
ing the laborers who are now out of
work at the completion of the basin all
opportunity of earning that money by
work necessary to the improvement of
the city. When this same chairman was
running for council he caused to be post
ed upon the fences of the First Ward
large posters bearing a solicitation to vote
for him the "Worklng Mans Friend"
| do not think to>morrow's jubilee will
demonstrate any friendship for the work
ing men nor any consideration for the
living of many poor families through the
coming winter. Away with sy cophauts
we want men of sterling probity, legislat
i've ability and economical habits to fill
our council chamber.
Yours truly, TENTH WARD.

FATAL HEROiSM .
DEATH OF A YOUNG MAN WHO TRIEI
TO SAVE A woMAN's LIFE.

DEATH OF A YOUNG MAN WHO TRIED |
TO SAVE A woMAN's LIFE.
James Donlon, the young man who Oh
Monday night endeavored to save an
unrecognized woman from being killed
by rapid transit train in Atlantic ave-
nue., at Grand avenue, Brooklyn, died at
2 o'clock Tuesday morning, in the City
Hospital in Brooklyn, from the injuries
that he received. The woman, who was
instantly killed, was sixty years of age.
She had grey hair, and wore black
dress, black waterproof cloak, black
hat and gloves, and Grape veil. A
plush-covered pocketbook wit brass fast
enings, containing SAC in money and the
business card of William Heller, of No.
| 81 Chambers street, New York, and the
address of J. T. Ashley, of No. 154 Sec
ond street, Williamsburg, was found on
her. She was first seen on Fulton
street car, which she left at Grand ave-
nue.. She went down that avenue to
Atlantic avenue, and was about to cross
the track, when the flagman. Thomas
| Whalen, called out to her to keep back,
as motor with a rapid transit train was
already within fifty feet of the crossing
She appeared not to hear the warning
and continued 10 go toward the track.
James Donlon, who, with two young
friends, WAS standing on the corner, be-
gan to call out to her; but as she appear
ed not to hear him, and crntinued OF
her way, Donlon ran to her, reaching
her just as she stepped between the rails
He grsped her firmly by the shoulders
and endeavored to pull her away. Sh'
seemed frightened by the sudden inter
ference, and asked, "What are you do
ing with me ?" She struggled to free her
self from Donlon's grasp, and as he at
tempted to lift her off the track by mail
strength, the motor struck HIM an,
knocked him aside. The woman fel
across the southern rail, and the trail
passed over her legs, cutting both o
them off below the knees. She died al
most instantly. Donlon was picked up
few feat from the track, bleeding fron
I wounds in the head. On being taken e.
the hospital it was found that his skul
+ was fractured, and from this wound h
: died. He was seventeen years of age
! and was the son of Patrick Donlon,
: well>known contractor, of No, 1856 Deal
|. street, He was a young man Of promise
He will be buried from st. Joseph
Church, In Pacific street, on Thurs
day,
There is much indignation in tn
vicinity of the accident over the allege,
lack of proper protection of the crossing
:, The franchise to run rapid transit train
was granted on the condition that tn
/ track should be fenced in, and that tn
g crossings should be protected by gates
g There have been one or two fatal acc
dents, and the Coroner jury has recon
: ended The use of gates at the cross
ings.

MISSING MEN.
.As6ent Fire Weeks on an Oyster
Pungy--Indefnite 1SdingS.

AS6ent Fice Weeks on an Oyster
Pumgy-lndefnite TSdingS.
About five weeks ago, Geo. Maxwell,
residing OH Buttonwood street betewen
Eighth and and Ninth, Nathaniel Nc
Kenney and John Hayden, residing on
Eighth street near Church, started down
the bay on the pungy Linnet, after oys,
ters. They intended to be absent few
weeks, but as time passed on and no It'd,
ings of them were received their friends
in this city began to be greatly concerned
al out their safety.
Since their departure no definite infor.
nation as to their condition or whereabouts
has been received, and last week the
impression that they were lost prevailed
to a considerable extent among their
relatives and friends. Some encourages
ment was received, however, ,on Saturday,
when some oyster boats arrived at Church
street wharf, and their crews, upon
being interviewed, stated than in their
opinion the crew of the LinRet could not
have met with any disaster or they
would have heard of it. This information,
though rather indefinite, gave great
encouragement to the friends of the
missing men, and hopes are now
entertained that the LiInet and her crew
will in due time return safely to thi.
