A Terrible Spree.

"You are looking pretty fresh, this
morning." observed the managing
editor, a. the religious editor strolled
into the sanctum, and put his foot
upon the desk to tie his shoe.
"Do not feel very good" growled
the religious editor. II got off with
some of the boys, last night, and we
had a racket; now you hear me
shout"
"Who was the party ?" inquired
the managing editor, enviOusly.
"A lot of clergymen were showing
a stranger around" replied the reli-
gious editor. stretching out a full
length. 1--WE went from one church
to another, to e how the prayer
meetings were getting on, and then
we called on several old fellows, who
were too superannuated to get around
with us. They all set them UP"
"Set up WHAT" demanded the
managing editor, somewhat startled.
Lemonade and biscuits and
dough-nuts," continued the religious
editor" BY that time it was 9 o'clock
and all hands were getting excited,
and somebody said he knew a man
who had cider in his cellar. After
we had downed a.quart or two of
that we began to get reckless. So we
went to the house of one OF the
brethren and sang hymns till 1880. I
got a notion how things were coming
out and wanted to jump the game,
but they wouldn't have il, and the
most hilarious man in the crowd said
if we would come around to his house
he would cut q pie. That made 'em
all fairly wild, and away we went.
After the pie we had some more
hymns, and finally to wind up the
whole business, I sent out and bought
a watermelon. That busted the
racket. They got to throwing seeds
at each other and they laughed so
loud that you could almost hear
them in the next room."
Anything else?" inquired the
managing editor, dryly.
NO" responded the religious edi-
tor. "When we had finished the
melon we all went home, but YOU
bet some of those dominies have got
head on 'ein this morning!"
"Shouldn't wonder" assented the
editor. "AndI don't sup
you feel much like work."
II might be braced to it," grinned
he religious editor, with an eye on
he closet door.
And the managing editor pulled
ut the demijohn and the religious
'dit0r washed down the last recOllec-
ion Of the night before with q CO.
ius draught of fourth-proof forgetful
ess.-Brooklm Eagle.

DEATH at LAST.
A sad Sequel 20 u SehOOlbOy's
QuRrrel-Six Months In n
tense Suffering.

Wilson S. Hatch, the innocent VIC
tim Of boys quarrel, died from the
injuries be received, after almost six
months intense suffering, at $50
o clock yesterday afternoon. His
murderer is Robert Dundon, aged
about eighteen years, who has been
under arrest for months past. The
dead boy. together with Robert Will
hanson, the son Of the family living
in the house adjoining the Hatch
homestead, started for Henry Stevens
box factory, corner Of Twenty second
and Throop streets. where Mr.. Will
hanson, father OF Robert, was EN-.
ployed. This was on Saturday morn.
ing, the 3lst day of last March,
about ten o'clock. Robert and
Wilson boarded, Halstead street
h0rse-car going TO the O'Neill street
transfer, having decided to walk tht
balance Of the way to the factory
Reaching Johns Place, small street
running east and west from Halstead
street, they met a number Of small
boys, who began throwing sand and
pieces Of ice at them. A piece Of ice
thrown by one Of the number struck
Hatch on the right cheek, and the
boy whe flung it started to run away,
pursued by Hatch. The latter
followed him into short alley lead.
ing from Johns place. Dundon was
standing in the alley, and noticing one
OF his acquaintance being chased by
Hatch, turned upon the latter boy
Hatch stopped running and returned
to Johns place, when just before
gaining the street he stumbled and
fell upon the icy walk on his hands
and face. Dundon followed him up
and meanwhile whipped a large jlck
knife from his pocket. He hurriedly
opened it and buried the blade in the
small of the back, in the renal region
Of Hatch, who was helplessly lying on
the walk. Hatch rallied himself and
ran to the Office Of Drs. Vain 4 Ste.
balts, where his wounds, which upon
examination we're pronounced fatal,
we're dressed. He was alterward con.
yeyed to the home Of his parents at No.
1920 Parnell avenue, dying yesterday
afternoon. Immediately after tho
assault Dundon left Chicago, going
to st. Louis, where he was
spotted by Detective Hallarap and
Costello, about six months later.
He was then lodged in Jail and has
remained there since, to await the re.
suit of his victims wounds. The de.
ceased boy was sixteen years and eight
months old, and previous to the as
sault by Dundon had attended the
South Division High School, pursu
ing his second course. The police
have been notified OF Hatch's death,
and Dundon will answer to the charge
Of murder at an early date.
