FIGHTING ON THE EDGE OF A
WALL.

Matthew Conner and Patrick o.
Council, bod carriers in Auburn,
Maine, have long borne grudge
against each other. They were both
engaged on Huston's new cracker
factory, the walls or which have
been run up three stories, of a dis
lance of about fifty feet. On the
morning of the Goth ult., the men
went to work as usual, but some.
thing occurred to rouse the old ani>
mostly, and quicker than thought
the two men, in their unreasoning
anger, had closed in deadly combat
on the dizzy edge of the third story
walls. The struggle was fierce but
short. Before they could be sepsr-
ated both men lost their balance, and
clasped in each others embrace they
pitched over the wall, striking upon
the ground below with fearful thud.
Their fellow workmen Immediately
fastened below, but to no avail-the
men were mangled corpses. What
makes the circumstances peculiarly
sad is that both men leave large fam"
lilies dependent upon them for sup
port. Conner leaves seven chill
dren.

will take a hand,saw and a can o

mains, thus giving the host chance

scattering them with dressing and
casting gloom and gravy over the
company.
This is a move for which | have

give bis whole attention to the en-
terrain mens of bis friends at table
You would no expect your host to
take off his coat and kill the fowl 10

that it was all on the square, and it
is not customary to require the pro-
prietor Of the house to peel the pc
tatoes at table for his guests to prove
that there 10 no put up job about it.
Therefore | claim that the lament

at a side table by an athlete at four

etiquette will permit him to stand BY
