Clement Bates, City Solicitor, against

County Treasurer. This was an action ID
enjoin Faran & Mclean from collecting a
bill for city advertising; to restrain the Au-
ditor from auditing the bill and the Treas
urer from paying the same. The case WAS

cOrdance with their bid.
The defendants disclaimed the bill IA

should pay 81 per square. They denied
that they had agreed to stick to their bid,

its acceptance by Council. Judge Johnston
decided that they had Withdrawn their bid

ALMOST A MURDER.
An Old Family Quarrel and the Shock
ing Results.

About five years ago the children OF two
families residing in adjoining houses on the
corner of Fulton avenue and Brooklyn
street became involved in a quarrel, which
was soon taken up by the parents.
The alleged injuries were neither forgivea
nor forgotten, and although the two men.
VIM. Brookbank and Charles A. Annis by
name, were both carpenters and worked to-
gether in the Marine Dock Yards. they avoid
ed each others company and were not slow
at showing their spite. Nothing serious
however, resulted from this coldness, until
last night when Annis accused Brook
bank of throwing nuisance over the fencs
into his yard, and Immediately proceeded
to build higher fence that he might pre-
vent it.
Brookbank took this as an insult and
threatened vengeance. Annis resented,
and when the two men went to work this
morning they proceeded to settle the dis
pute by force of arms. BrOokbank was
armed with sedge-hammer, and with this
he hit his neighbor violent blow on the
back of the head, which made fearful
wound and brought him to the ground in a
senSeleSS condition.
He then threw the wrench at Mr.. Annif
boy and escaped in skif to Dayton, Ky.
where he was pursued and caught BY tha
officers.
He is now at the Fulton Station -houss,
with the charge Of assault with intent 10
kill against him. Annis was taken TO the
City Hospital, where his skull was found to
be broken, and he was pronounced to be ia
dangerous condition.

The WONDERFUL Cu1MPANzEEs.- -
Two of the missing links arrived in
New York by steamer on Sunday
two chimpanzee monkeys that would
make Mr.. Darwin dance for ioy.
Their tails are short as even Darwin
himself could desire; their faces are
more like the human face than those
of any animals ever before brought
to America; their ears arc exact
reproductions of the human car; their
hands, or fore paws, are human
hands; they have distinct human
noses instead Of the dog nose Of the
common monkey; they walk entirely
upon their hind feet, upright as u
man, and their hands, feet, faces,
and cars are void of hair. They are
small, bnt they are only about eigh
teen months old, and have plentyiof
time to grow. 1t is almost impossi -
BILE, in looking at them, not ,tocbe-.
lieve them colored children with
chests and limbs covered with hair.
Fhe most singular thing about hese
creatures is that they can talk. They
seem to understand much of what is
said to them, and can say "yes,"
"no."r and several other English
words very distinctly, and have
quite vocabulary of German words
Besides this, they talk TO each other
in language of their own. The fe-
male has bad cold, and the two are
kept iT private room in the aqua
rim TIL they are strong enough after
their voyage for exhibition.-N.Y.

Some years ago when the writer

form got the two locals mixed in a
frighttul manner, and when we went
to press, something like this was the
appalling result:
Some OF the Rev. DR.. Mudge's
friends called on him yesterday, and
after brief consultation the unsus>
pecling hog was seized by the hind
leg and slid along the bean. until he
reached The hot water tank. His
friends explained the object If their
visit and presented him with a hand.

bed him By the tail, and ewing him
around, and in less than minute the
carcass was in the water. Thereupon
he came forward and said there were
times when the feelings overpowered
one, and for that reason he would
not do more than attempt to thauk
those around him fpr'the manner in
which so huge an animal was cnt in
fragments was astonishing. The Doc
tor concluded his remarks, the ma
chine seized him, and, in less than it
takes to write it, the hog was cut in
TO fragments aud worked into deli
cioue sausage. The occasion will be
remembered by the Doctors friends
as one Of the most delightful ofStheir
