Lucky He Got Away Alive.

LOUISVILLE KY, Nov. 15.-Tearing the
head of of Martin Llther, as printed in The
Anzeiger, was what caused Phil jacob, thu
saloonist, to kick Mr.. Smith, his bar-keeper,
out of the house. 1t appears that young
Smith for some reason didn't like the cause
that Martin Luther espoused, and, finding his
alleged picture in the paper, tore the head off.
Shortly afterward Mr.. Jacob entered the sa-
loon and at once fixed his eye on the mutt
lated journal, and upon asking who did it,
was told, when forthwith the kicking began,
and out went Smith. Mr.. Jacob is Luth.
eran, and the act of his bar-keeper was con-
strued as not only an insult to him, but to the
memory of a man that he more than loves
Persons who witnessed the affair say that
Smith was exceedingly fortunate in getting
off with his life, as Mr.. Jacob was up to a
while heat
