~ A sensation was created on Sixteenth
street Sunday evening by the rumor
that Lee Chin, alias Jim Lee, the hero
of the Caucasio-M Monaghan marriage,
had been knocked down and killed in u
bar room. Mrs. Lee Chin besought Of
icer Nolan to arrest the slayer of her
Monaghan spouse, and even pointed
out the man. The officer found Lee
Chin stretched out on the floor of a bar
room, apparently lifeless. He detained
the man who was pointed out as the
murderer, until he learned a few facts.
All Of the bystanders stated that when
the Chinaman entered the saloon he
was somewhat under the influence of
liquor. He asked for a big schooner Of
beer, and drank 1t slowly and deliber-
ately. lie was observed to twitch
slightly about the mouth, as II his
mixed drinks had gone back on him,
and, after Keeling around, fell dead
drunk on the'aoor. It was then that
Mrs. Lee Chin saw her liene lord, and
started the rumor.
In a fea minutes Lee Chin began TO
revive, and sevsral officers carried him
to his "washse-s sshss', house. Gradu-
ally thessoporiGc influence Of the mixed
drinks jwaped. and Lee Chin came to
himself, to the gteSt relief Of bisdoting
wife and to his DwD diseuntA "a be

BIs Or missory.

The Irish agitator in Paris yesterday
wanted a protest for an anti English
manifestation; and they went to Yer
sailles to decorate with flowers the
STATUE erected to the memory OF Gen.
Lazare Hoche, a French general of
1902 to '96. They claimed that they
thus honored the dead general as a
''tribute Of grateful Ireland" The
reader Of history will find it difficult
to find a good reason why Ireland
should be grateful to Gen. Hoche for
anything. He made several attempts
to invade Ireland, and left Brest in
1706 with a fleet carrying $4,000 sold
iers, who were to land on the coast Of
Ireland; but stormy weather scatter
ing his ships, prevented their timely
arrival in Bantry bay, and Ireland was
saved from invasion.

of an accident on Sunday evening that
might have resulted seriously, If not
fatally Mr.. Ryder was sitting in his
doorway enjoying the cool breeze of the
evening and watching several children
at play by the door. The children were
called into the house and just as Mr.. Ry-
der turned his head after watching the
children disappear into the house, he
heard q loud explosion and experienced
a strange sensation. as of a cannon ball
striking him In the face. Upon placing
his hand to his face. he felt blood trick
ling down his cheek and he then real
lied that he was wounded. Investiga-
ton developed the fact that he received
two gunshot wounds. A physician was
immediately sent for.
1t was then learned that q small boy
had been "~fooling'' with a1oaded shot
gun near by Mr.. Ryder's residence, and
that the weapon was accIdently dis
charged by him with the result stated
above. G ,gs'

Ryder, extracted the two shots from
the l~atter's face. They proved to be

The Concord Last NIRht.

A small but very select audience
a scant 5000 house-sssembled at the
the theater last night in compliment
to Mr.. w. H. Stanley, a vocalist Of
note, and Mrs. c. H. Fits, an instru-
mental artist of ability, both of whom
have frequently appeared at public and
private %soirees during the past winter,
lending their skill and talent in CON
tributing to the amusement Of our
people. 1t was something after half
past eight when the first number Of
the programme began, and the audi
ence manifested some impatience at
the delay. What with long waits
between pieces and numerous encores,
the entertainment was carried until a
quarter after eleven, so that the audi
ence had to trudge home afoot or
employ carriages, the last street-ca
having disappeared sometime before
the concert ended. All of the vocal
lists were obliged to sing twice in re-.
spouse to the demands of the audience
The instrumental numbers being chos-
en- chiefly from the complicated ar
engagements Of List, Beethoven and
Mendelssohn in which accoustical gym
nastics predominant at the expense of
melody, failed to excite that enthusi-
asm necessary TO cause a repetition
otherwise the audience would not
have been dismissed until after mid
night. In the contest for a gold medal
between three of Mrs. Fits pupils,t b
honor fttingly fell to Miss NJ. L. Bar
row. Any other decision would have
surprised the contestants or their re-
spective friends, and while the result
was anticipated by Miss Barrow's
friends, itsO excited that accomplished
young lady hat she suffered a genuine
spell Of fainting Mysteries which lasted
half an hour or more. Judge j. 0.
Peirce, Mr.. A. Refs and Mr.. Levy
we're the committee who conferred the
agreeable honor upon Miss Barrow.
Besides the regular programme, the
songs sung during the evening were
the ever popular "Sewanee River" by
Miss Jennie Jones; the sailor song
Nancy Lee" by Mr. Stanley; a lovely
ballad by Miss Jennie Camp; and
Comrades in Arms by the double
quartette. A trio by Miss Houston
and Messers Cashier and Refs was
repeated. The next anticipated anne
teur musical entertainment is a
sprightly operetta entitled "Olivette,"
now reported to be in rehearsal by the
Mozart club.

me Chronic witness.

The chronic witness, who may be

and is always anxious to have some
thing to say, either on one side or the
other, is an unsavory citizen. To be
