The Wheeling boys at Buffalo are having
a big time. A letter written by one OF

says the boys are receiving royal treat

THE BoILER CASE


Decided By JadGe Boyd In Favor OF
NE. Newman.
This case, which has excited 80 much In.
terest on Market street, between Fourteenth
street and "Long Johns" saloon, was de.
cided Tuesday in favor Of Mr.. Charles New.
man. Five or six weeks ago Newman,
who is a scourer and repairer Of clothes at
1425 Market street, determined to enlarge
bis business, and for that purpose began
the erection of q steam boiler in the rear OF
his premises and Immediately adJsceut TO
the factory of the tobacconist, Chariss
Hanke. This idea did not impress Mr..
Hanke as exactly the thing, and the more
he reflected upon the matter the
less was he disposed to look kindiy
upou Mr.. Newman's yenturesome
proceeding. Hanke at once secured the
services Of Messrs. Good m Frame. n
these gentlemen obtained a preliminary
Injunction from Judge Boyd, claiming
that the smoke would be unbearable, the
boiler would likely burst and Mr.. Hanke's
property largely depreciate in value;
Newman employed John o. Pendleton aud
H. M. Russell as his lawyers and made q
vigorous fight for his boiler. A large
amount of testimony was taken aud the
case was finally argued by the lawyers and
submitted before Judge Boyd on Satur-
day.
On Thursday the judge rendered his de.
cision, dissolving the injunction and dis
missed Mr.. Hanke's case at his costs. The
boiler goes up and Newman will turn
many a penny as a steam dyer.

A TEMPERATE LOVER
Resents His Rejection by n Greene
County Girl.

A belle OF Greene county, just over the
Pennsylvania border, has been playing
smash with hearts in the West. 1t makes h
very romantic story, and Miss Clara Noble
(for that is her name) daughter of Thomas
Noble, has travelled some distance toward
fame. She lately visited her sister, in
Iowa, and while there met a soft young
man, evidently a dude, named William
Johnson. William was a hard, deep lover,
and Miss Noble struck him strong. He was
in love, head and ears, and whenever she
came near him his blood would run crink.
~ as Curled maple.
For a long time he worshipped at her
shrine and paid her the most devoted at
~tention. She didn't cotton to William and
was probably spoons with some other fel
low. However, she endured Williams
devotion and ate his ice cream until patti.
ence ceased to be a virtue. and she at last
gave him to understand that his suit was
utterly useless and that she didn't care to
be annoyed further. He, it seems, being
wrought up to desperation on account OF
disappointed love, came one night to her
house and fired some five times into the
room where he supposed that she was
sleeping, but it appeared that she WAS
sleeping in the room adjoining, and that
her sisters three children were sleeping in
the room into which the shots were fired,
but IS luck would have it, no one was in
iured. He was arrested and his trial is
now in progress at that place.

Don't forget that to-day, THURSDAY Fri

every can sold, either Of Tea or Coffee, will
contain a sum OF money varying In

blanks; no matter which can you select you
will be sure to find money in it. This We
most positively guarantee. Such an oppor'
tunity we are sure was never before given
to the people of this city to get Tea and
Coffee so cheap and of such a superior
quality. Remember now is the time.
This Company proposes to give away to-
day $500 IN cans of Tea and Coffee pur-
chased of them. Every can will contain
money. The barrels Of money in the front
window of this store from which these
cans are supplied is a sight worth going a
long distance to see. The ones;
twos, fives, tens, twentyI and
fifty dollar bills overflow the barrels, com.

sight to behold, and few who see it can pass

The Lines OF . Coroner Fall In Uu.
PLEASANT Places.
The position of q Coroner as represented
by the portly gentleman who now holds
that Office in this county, is certainly not
the most desirable n in the world,
though to o locker Oh who sees him only
at an inquest, it does not seem that his du-
ties are very oppressive, The Coroner re-
lated one instance as an illustration Of his
position yesterday. ~ wal called on to
hold an inquest on a body some time ago.
My constable had hard work TO
get q good jury. Taking the
Case all through, 1 mad DO end of work to
do. The deceased's estate, / thought, was
able to pay the expenses, and q few days
ago | sent in my bill to the curator, who
replied by postal, that NY bill would be
paid pro rata with other bills against the
estate. Did you ever hear anything like
that? Why, that is q - outrage! The
law distinctly says that the constable, jury
and witnesses are to be paid, as also myself
as Coroner. Now, when are these men to
get their money? l can't pay tn EN- out of
my own pocket, and the men are
after ME every few days for their money,
and - oh, pshaw! | ana nearly driven
distracted by them. / met the curator a
day or two ago and during our conversation
l told him all in the world l would ask
him to do, was to certify that the estate
was not able to pay the expenses of the in.
quest, and l could very readily get it out
Of the county. Bueho; he would not do
it, and now fsuppose, | will have to wait
about a year for the money. The true way
to work this coroner business, is for the
county to pay the coroner q salary and
there you would very quickly see il these
estates did not Immediately pay the ex.
penses of an inquest, and not dilly daily
for several months like they are with me;
My impression is that the county will event
ally pay this office a salary. Since l have
held it the county has been saved several
hundred dollars and l." The reporter
