A Frenchman named Carpenter who had
drawn his weeks pay in this city and was
walking home to Winooski, early last night,
was assaulted while crossing from the north
end of Winooski avenue to the rail
road bridge, on the fiat below the shuiT, by
three young men, who bad their hats
drawn down and their coat collars
turned up to hide their faces. Carpenters re-
slstance was overcome and lie was badly
pounded by his assailants. One Of these was
knecing on his breast and another searching
his pockets when the fellows were scared
away by the approach of Il man coming from
Winooski. He did no, dare chase the sc0un-
drels, but aided the injured man, whose peck
cts had been empted of about so. The
footpads had probably followed him from
this city.

you kill or cripple anybody"
ssNo, sir.
cit is veyy serious matter to fire Of

body. Don't you know you are liable TO
be punished, very severely punished for
such carelessnesss"
Eyes, your Honor: but there are some
very mitigating circumstances.
ssWhat are they, and how many of
them are there?"
There are cats, your Honor, and from
the noise they make should think there
were about thousand of them. They
made q worse racket than Wash Jones

An Iron Palace.

George L. Huston, of Parkersburgh,
Chester county, Pa, will build palatial
private mansion for himself entirely of
iron, the foundation being of solid rock.
The architect is an Englishman whom
Mr.. Huston recently met while abb DAD. ).
The iron work is now being turned out
at Coatesvllle, as the superstructure is to
be of iron entirely. The floor of the hall.
vestlbule and library will be laid with
polished cast iron tiles, in which differ
ent qualities of iron will be used to pro-
duce the same variety of color as in or
of the house will be of stout iron plates
firmly bolted to the iron joists. The out
side wall and inside partitions all through
the structure will be composed of two
courses of iron plates firmly bolted to-
gether, 80 as to be air-tight These hol-
low iron walls and partitions will be
uset instead of chimneys for con-
veying heat to different parts of the
house, and for ventilation. The hot
smoke and gases from the furnaces
passing through the sides of the rooms
in this way will, it is claimed, be almost
sufficient to keep the house comfortable
in the coolest weather, so that the heat
ing can be done with about one-half the
fuel required in ordinary houses. All
the doors and window sashes will also be
iron, but will be constructed in such q
light way and so nicely balanced upon
hinges and weights as to open and shut
as easily AS those made of wood. All the
inside walls and partitions will be
painted and frescoed SO as to present the
appearance of an ordinary house finished
in plaster. Outside, the style of archi-
lecture will be light and graceful, and II
will be painted and ornamented so as to
look as If it was built of wood. The
roof will be of strong boiler plate, and
on the top, at the conveyance of the
four gables, will be handsome conser-
vatory supported at the four corners by
four Ionic pillars of iron. Inside the
ornaments will be made of the same ma
terial. In the parlor will be mantel of

Miss Llvingstone's Verdict.

At twenty inmates to four Thursday
afternoon, the case of Mary Alice Ali
mont Livingstone, who sued the million
aire oil merchant, Henry Fleming, for
breach of promise, demanding $75. 600,
was given to the jury in New York.
They were out but few mome1ts.
When they returned there was strained
quiet in the room and the audience list
ened eagerly for the result. When the
Jurors names were called by Clerk Byrne,
he asked: Gentlemen of the jury. have
you agreed upon verdict" The fore
man, Mr.. Seaman, responded: "We
have. We find for the plaintiff the full
amount claimed" There was an instan-
taneous cheer which shook the house.
Mr.. Fleming had slipped out and was no
where to be seen. Cheer upon cheer
followed for the jury. Judge Pratt
sat back, with contented smile
on his face, looked placidly at the
uproarious scene before him. Miss Liv.
ingstone was in the witness room, where
she had been joined by her mother.
They had not yet been informed of the
result. The junior counsel for the de-
Tense asked for new trial and the plain
tiff asked for an extra allowance. JUS
tice Pratt granted stay and fixed a day
for the argument of the motion for new
trial. Miss Livingstone was making
love to her little baby in the waiting
room, with her mother by her side,
when she heard the tramp of throng
rushing, with cheers, to the door. She
was called out by messenger and she
came with her baby in her arms. The
crowd made way and on each side OF the
lane that was formed for her there were
men and boys vigorously clapping their
hands. She colored almost to purple
and her little one-year-old waved his
hand as though he knew something OF
his mammals victory.
