A BAD MAN,

int.ct,:E Fatal Wounds Oh Two Persons
With HIS Knife.
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. I'm street brawi
about six years ago. Il man named Frank
Desmoulin, was stabbed and badly wouuG-
ed by William Rcvell, who up to last night
was engaged as bartender at saloon near
Eighth and Vino streets. At that time
DesmOulin swOre vengeance against
Revell. About two O'Clock this morning
DesmOulin, accompanied by Patrick
Dooley. Frank Dewitt, Frank Fox and
John Gray entered the saloon where
Revell was employed. DesmOulin ut once
threw a spittoon at Revell, knocking him
down. when the other four men held him
until DcsmOulin cut him in the neck. head
and several places in the body. The at.
tacking party then fled. Revell is consid
cred beyond recovery.
DesmOulin and his four companions then
went UP to Vine street and soon met a
party of young men. A snow. .balling row
then ensued, during which Desmoulin
once more got out his knife and inflicted
frightful wound in the stomach of VIM.
Chambers. This man will also die.
A police officer captured DesmOulin al
most i'll the act, but this was the signal
for a third fight in which the officer was
thrown down and beaten and the despcra-
docs escaped. Dewitt, Fox and Gray have
since been captured and committed with
out bail.

Dlfnculty of Obtaining Port Wine.

The difficulty OF obtaining pure Port Vine
for sickness is one great cause why physicians
refuse to prescribe it where they know it
would benefit their patient, because they fear
that some poisonous mixture will be given
them instead of Port Wine, and the injury be
irreparable. California wines are being terri
bly, mixed and adultcrated 18th alcohol and
water and other ingredients to make 1t cheap,
SO as to bring y greater profit from the sales.
The most excellent and finest Port Wine Is
made in New Jersey, from the ODortO Grape,
by Alfred Specr, and has become the most re-
liable wine for Hospital and Communion pmr
poses. This Wine has been thoroughly ana
lyzed, and is pronOtlAced by chemists to be
the pure juice of the grape, and to contain the
most valuable medicinal properties. 1t is sold
by druggists, who purchase direct from Mr.
Speer's Vineyards IN New Jerscy.-Erening
Post.
The above wine has become in great demand
in New York and Brooklyn tor communion
and hospital use.
This wine is recommended by Drs. Alice
and Davis, and for sale by II. E. Slaymaker,

PRESIDENT GOWEN.
The. London Times ON His Deferred Bon
Scheme

The. London Times ON His Deferred Bond
Scheme.
LONDON, Jan. 5.-The Times in its
financial article says: president Gowen
is bold enough to deserve success. Almost
on the eve Of new election for directors,
he issues prospectus Of his deferred
bonds. According to this document the
issue is already secured, as whatever is
left unsubscribed for by the exist
ing bond and shareholders will be
taken by combination of capitalists
at the issue price without commission.
President Gowen writes in reply to the let
ter of the McCalmonts on this point and
draws attention to the. fact that their crit
icism was thus unfounded. We have not
lately met more significant indication Of
a revival Of speculation than the fact that
such an issue Of deferred bonds should
have been guaranteed for nothing beyond
the chance of being able to
sell at premium. AS long as the bond
and shareholders find the money there is
nothing to be said. In all probability,
however, these deferred bonds will become
a medium for the very worst kind of gam
bling, and their chances of dividend ap-
pear to us very small"
