THE HAND OF JUSTICE.
An Author in TroubIe-A Woman Beater
unfortunate Liquor Lovers.

| The Mayor had lengthy docket to clear
last evening and the police room became
| Oppressively close. The first case called was
that of Samuel Hall, generally known as
'Buckskin SAM" the long haired author of
''Plaza and Plain, or Life In the Far South
west, and other scalplifting recitals. Sam
was charged with assaulting Eddie Moulton,
boy about 10 years of age, and knocking
him down. The trouble arose from a quar-
rel between the children of Mrs butcher,
with whom Sam boards, and the complain
ant. All the witnesses agreed as TO the
assault which must have been pantomimic
in its nature, inasmuch as 1t appears that
not word was said by any of the parties
| interested. Considerable amusement was
created by the manner I'm which Hattie
butcher, little, pert, old-fashioned miss,
| dressed like woman of 30, gave an account
| of the way in which she had been annoyed
by young Moulton. She was not In the
slightest embarrassed but "spoke her piece"
with the air of veteran witness in the
police court. As she took her seat she gave
herself what-do-you-t think of me twist, and
smiled placidly. Sam was represented by
j. w. Bissel, ESQ.,, in whose ear the "literary
fellow" continually suggested points. In
summing up the matter the authors counsel
admitted that his client had committed the
assault, but did so under provocation. Sam,
hp hhihf hho u hCiNOub anu
and being the protector of the butcher
children had been provoked into striking the
boy who had been very tantalizing. His
honor said nothing would justify the assault
and fined the six-footer $3 and costs for hit
ting the lad.
Henry Ralston, for assaulting, while
under the influence of liquor, Thomas
Bowman, who said of the prisoner that che
just him me in the eye" was fined S3 and
costs
George w. Kay, valiant specimen of
humanity, knocked his sister-in-law, Cath
arine Kay, to the floor, and then kicked her
in the face. The brave man was fined So
and costs.
Samuel Kelley Edward Wales and John
Dixon, charged with assaulting John G.
Bryant and with being drunk and disorderly,
were fined 81 each and costs.
Joseph Woodward and Thomas Morris
were each fined 80 cents and costs for being
drunk.

THE JUDGEsH1P IN CECIL.
A Red Hot Fight Against Judge Stump
Cruikshank's Changes.
Especial correspondence of the Gazette.

Especial correspondence of the Gazette.
ELKToN, Md, May 13.-Politics seems to
be the absorbing topic at present, and the
discussion and interest In the judicial con
estis as lively as ever, the friends of both
the candidates being busy at work straight
ening their lines and getting ready for the
deciding contest, which will be at the pri-
maries to be held this summer.
Isay the deciding contest, for whichever
candidate carries the county will certainly
be the nominee, unless all signs fail and the
other counties In the circuit choose to com
NIT political har kari, for be 1t remembered,
Cecil county will have to give the majority
that elects the ticket, the others being nearly
tie or hopelessly Republican. Both parties
seem to be confident with the odds greatly
in favor of Mr.. Cruikshank, but Judge
Stump's backer, DIR. MITCHELL, is no small
antagonist, and If he is beaten it will only be
after desperate struggle. What has very
much weakened the Judges chances Is the
fact that almost the entire press of the other
counties in the judicial circuit seem, with
singular unaminity to insist that he is and
must be the choice, and while many look
upon this as an attempt at bulldozing, a
great many more suspicion the Judge with
conniving at the bulldozing
Indeed he recently remarked to a fellow
traveller on train coming TO Elkton, that
he did not care whether he carried Cecil or
not; he would be nominated anyhow The
constable men say they will carry this
county first, and will discuss the matter with
the other counties afterwards. They are at
work In earnest, are very confident, and
unless usually certain signs are outside the
pale of political reckoning, think you may
put 1t down that Mr.. Cruikshank will GER
tainly carry six out of the nine districts in
the county and that he will be one of the
Judiciary Nominees.

Wanted to Die.

Last evening, at 6.57 man about As years
of age stepped from a southbound train at
the p, w. & b. station and walked down
Water street as far as the United States
Hotel. When the train started off he
stepped on the track and made sudden
dart toward the front Of the engine. AP-
parently changing his mind, he walked as
far back as the baggage ear, which was
moving slowly, threw himself on the ground
and attempted to crawl under the train.
He was seized by some bystanders and taken
away. The engineer had been watching the
actions of the man from the cab of the loco
motive and stopped the train. No injury
was inflicted save an ugly scalp wound.
The would-bc suicide seemed to be demented.
He refused to converse with any one ut the
depot and declined to give his name. He
was assisted to a seat in a northbound train
and taken to Philadelphia, where he said he
resided. further examination into the
case throws some doubts as to the suicidal
intent.

MIDDLETOWN.
Town Commissioners Taking Action
Toward tho Purchase of a Fire Engine.

Especial correspondence Of the Gazette
MIDDLETowN, May 13.-The weather for
the past few days has been wet, cold and
disagreeable, and some fears are expressed
for the peaches. But if it does not grow
colder than at the present time it is believed
that they will not be injured.
Last Thursday, John Collins, while work
ing in the gravel pits just below town, had
his knee painfully twisted by bank caving
In on him.
This has been good week on wheat and
grass and there was never a better show for
a large crop of wheat than now. Large in
voices of the latest improved farming imple-
ments have been received here by different
firms and readily disposed of, thus showing
that our farmers are alive to their interests
and the increased demand for the latest i'm
proved machinery for our farms.
A social hop will be given by few of our
young men in Reynolds Hall on Tuesday
night next. A pleasant time is anticipated.
Our Town Commissioners are in CORE
spondence with several fire apparatus manu-
facturers, and it is to be hoped that they
will soon make some satisfactory arrage-
melt with them. They propose erecting a
tank at the present town well to be filled by
small steam pump that can be also used
by attaching hose in case of q fire.

FATAL COLLISION OFF CHESTER.
Two Coal Barges Sunk and One Man
Drowned.

Two Coal Barges Sunk and One Man
Drowned.
Two coal barges were sunk in the Dcla-
ware river on Thursday night, opposite
Chester, by colliding with the ship Hercules,
and Captain Jumpers of the barge Spain,
was probably drowned. At the time of the
accident the ship was at anchor, waiting for
the storm to subside. She was being towed
to Philadelphia by the tug Tecursheh, but
owing to the rough weather the tug was
compelled to anchor at distance from the
ship. Six barges, the EHn, A. D. Sevey,
William Hacker, Spain, Lewis Steward and
Ed Bockus, were being towed and had
reached Chester when the gale separated
them.
Two of the barges, the Stewart and
Bockus, were drawn against the Hercules
and at once sank. Captain Byarne of the
Hercules, with difficulty succeeded in saving
the captains and their families who were OF
the barges They were butleting the wavel
and almost exhausted when assistance from
the ship reached them. Captain Jumpers
who was some distance away from the ship
was probably drowned. The barges were il
charge of the tug Hudson of the Clyde line
Captain Thomas Brady of the Bockus, and
johnson of the Stewart, were taken tC
Chester with their families, who were al
saved. The Hercules sustained some dam
ages, but arrived in Philadelphia last nigh
without trouble. Her cargo was consigned h
Hoffman q Meyer, who have filed demand
for damages with the Clyde Line.

A Farmers Bad Fix,
lDover Sentinel. J

Robert Welch, farmer living one mile
east of town, was rolling piece of plowed
land the other day with pair of oxen as the
motive power. In some way he was caught
under the roller, and the team stopped when
the roller was half way over him. There they
stood quietly chewing their cud until he had
nearly dug himself out, when they deliber-
ately started and pulled the roller up on
his shoulders and stopped again. Their
standing so long in one place attracted the
attention of neighbors at work in an adjoin-
ing field, who went over and found
Welch under the iron roller. He was
quickly relieved from his unpleasant posi-
ton. He had been under the roller for
nearly an hour. He was not hurt, but very
dusty, and hitching up his oxen went on
with his work, but was careful not to get
caught under that roller again with those
oxen.

A Hunt for Horses.
(West Chester Record. }


A few evenings since as Hayden Husbands
of Christiana hundred, Delaware, was max
ing call at Elan, Delaware county, he
heard a noise outside and at once proceeded
to where his two-horse team was standing,
and to his great surprise found that they had
succeeded in releasing themselves from the
post to which they had been hitched and had
started off at a rapid gait. They started in
the direction of Yarnall's Corner. Mr.
Husbands gave up all hope of finding his
team that night, so on the following morn
ing went in search of it, and upon going to
the spot found the younger horse lying in u
perilous position, with its legs through the
wheel, it having kicked all the spokes out
and the step of the wagon projecting from
its rump The beast was helped up when it
was discovered that the iron step had pene-
trated the flesh to the depth of six inches
The other animal was found short distance
away uniniured. Strange to say, the wagon
was but very little damaged, the tongue and
two wheels being the only parts that were
broken.
