"Billiards."

The proprietor of a doggery in the
last issue of THE PRESS shows his ig-
norance by attempting to show what
it costs, or rather the amount lost by
'VaP for opposing the hell holes in
Somerset, and then "itemizes" the
expenditures, which shows at u glance
chat the'author is capable of taking
bread and butter from children's
mouths. We haven't doubt but that
the clothes on his back were purchased
by money won at the gamblers table
OF by mistakes in making change
When men will trade whiskev to q
drunken father for flour when they
know his children are suffering from
hunger what won't they do. This has
been done over and over by Just such
creatures as "Billiards.7 He is SUD.
porting himself and family on the
cause of the misery of his neighbors.-
The day will come when Billiards
will get his just reward. He it viola
ting the laws of both God and man
= and says it is no ones business but hi
own. 1t is everybody's business, and
our citizens should drive them from
our midst. Let the law be enforced
and we will soon be rid of them. Il
the Marshal will not do it we must dc
it ourselves.

General Mckenzie recently recaptured

One Of the Delegates from Coal tp.,
TO the late Democratic county conven-

Curt Trovinger, that he wanted to
see him. After a resolution was passed
endorsing Trovinger and the Herald

The Democratic party of Ohio carried
the election last fall BY protesting to be
the especial friends of the poor and op.
presred. Thousands of Republicans who
were in debt, voted the ticket, believing
that their only hope Of saving themselves
from bankruptcy and ruin was to place the
Democratic party in power, and thus save
themselves from their cruel and heartless
creditors. By our professions we have been
enabled to carry the Legislature and there
fore secure United States Senator, but
what promise have we fulfilled to the peo-
pie? We answer, not one.

CALDWELL,S CLUBBING.
How James J. Matthews ca me to Hi
Death

Coroner Stitch this morning began an in
quest on the body of James J. Matthews,
who on Saturday week ago had his skull
fractured in Gus. Clarks saloon at the foot
of Broadway by being hit with billiard cue
in the hands of ADicky' Caldwell. Particu-
lars concerning the case were published on
that day in the columns of the STAR.
Matthews was arrested the same day and
confined in the County Jail for assault and
battery, and on Monday had to be removed
from that place to his home, No. 33 Race
street, on account of the seriousness of his
injuries. He died yesterday.
Mr.. James Maloney testified that the de-
ceased shortly before his death had made
statement that Matthews acknowledged
that che himself was the only one to blame.
A boot-black, named VIM. Aulbach,
stated thatthe deceased came into Clark s
saloon and asked for beer. He was refused
and then went back of the bar, when Cald-
well hit him with a piece of a hoop-pole across
the head. Matthews went out of the saloon
and fell on the street, striking his head on
the car track.
Mr. A. F. Clark, the saloonkeeper, testi-
fed that the deceased came into his saloon
on Saturday dead drunk and asked for
liquor He was refused and began row.
My barkeeper is quiet man, and his ma
ture is such that he can not be excited very
easily. He never was seen drunk while at
work, and physically was the weaker of the
two men.
There was another witness of the affray
i'll the saloon at the time but he had left the
city yesterday by boat. Others who knew
