A Cowsrdly Bellaire Mans Method OF
~ 1 - Revenge.
The following from the Beliaire inde'
pends1t of Saturday evening Will give
our readers an idea OF the reception
compile of Wheeling men met with at a
Beliaire ball last Friday night,
There was a row of no small proper
tions at the Turner Hall last night.
ball was given by boat CLUB, ana
Bricelard, the Wheeling oarsman, ana :
a friend came down from wheeling.
They went to the hall and were having
a good time, when a fellow named
Snider, OF this city, who was intoIi'
Gated, got into quarrel with Bricelanus
friend. We could not learn the Wheel
ing mans name, but whoever ne may
he he did not come down TO Bellalre
10 Oct used up and when Snider and he
GOT started into business he proceeded
10 punish the young man quite severe
", backing his eyes, punching his nose
and bruising him up generally. both
men were more or less intoxicated, anu
Rricelapd tried TO act the part OF peace
maker. as We understand 1t, and was
stooping down to take his companion OIL
! Snid r when some other fellow took the
! haer mallet and struck Brcelanu
a terrific blow on the SIDE OF
The face, knocking hiTn senseless ana
| LAYING him out on the floor, bleeding at
a lively rate. Then the crowd, either
through fear OF being punched them
selves, or fear that Briceland had been
Killed by the blow, dispersed and leit
the man to bleed and recover az best he
| could. 1t was but a few moments, how
ments. however, until some OF the party
| vent TO him and attempted to
arouse him. 1t required some ell
tort but Briceland was soon brought
TO. and when he fully recovered
and found that he had been used up SO
badly he was mad, very mad, as one
might suppose, and drawing revolver,
he proceeded to the hall upstairs, where
he made thorough search for the man
who had SO foully dealt him the blow:
But he could not be found. He had
secreted himself In one OF the ante
rooms, and when a favorable opportu-
nifty presented itself ne climbed out a
window and went home. Ihls row
and Bricelsnd's search for the coward
ly individual who had struck HIM
broke the ball up anu eVeTyouuy "ent
home. Briceland had washed himself
and stopped the profuse flow OF blood by
the use OF sticking plaster, and he and
his friend departed for home. The Snl-
der fellow was taken home by friends
also, with his eyes bunged and lace
bleeding. This row happened at al early
hour this morning. i obsbly at O'Clock,
and strange rs it NAV seem, not single
individual was arrested. This is eXplan'
ed in this way: The marshall is away he
is hired by the Turner $ 10 keep order in
their hall; Officer Archer is 10 act IN his
place; he remained at the hall till md
night, then retired. No police were
there after that. This will be poor con-
ISOLATION to the law and order loving
people of Bellaire, We think.
Since the above was put in type we
learn that the name Of the man who
accompanied Briceland was Clark, and
that there would have been no row bn!
for Snider. We are also told that the
chap who used the msllet was a young

Incendiary Firemen.

DANvrLLE, Ills, October 29.-Six
members Of the FIRE department OF this
place have been arrested on charge OF
incendiarism. Barns and other build
ipes have been nysteriously bred Tor
the past eighteen months, but the origin
of the fires could not be determined.
Finally the Mayor offered 81 600 re-
ward, and several Detectives took the
matter up. The evidence against the
firemen is said to oe 80 complete that
it can be proved who applied the match
in each instance.
1t is alleged the conspiracy was formed
TO change the volunteer department, ex-
cepting the five chief engineers. stokers
and drivers, who we're paid, into q regu'
lar paid department, which, by the Ire
ouency OF its fires, the city was COM
pelled to do, and these conspirators,
Who were then OF the volunteer force,
have got themselves into easy positions
at good salaries. A preliminary trial is
taking place to-day.

this, all jumped of, with the exception
Of one, a man by the name OF Frank

time, and the rail being relieved OF its
weight, few up, throwing Weismiiler in
the air. Both fell together the rail on top,
striking him across the hip making a
terrible cash about eight inches long.
The rail reboupding fell across his chest,
