A STABBING AFFRAY.

Quite serious stabbing affray took
place in tenement house occupied by
some Negroes in this city, on Monday
evening. Some years ago two negro
families came to this city. The men are
rattle, industrious and good workers, but
get on heavy sprees occasionally. Hap
py Sam, the victim of the stabbing, Is
stepfather of Boneless Charley. the one
who did the stabbing. The latter is said
by some to have a very bad temper and
goes armed. When q little under the
influence of liquor he is in the habit OF
drawing his shooting iron when little
angered. Himself and Sam have always
lived on amicable terms heretofore
They have gone on toots together and
have occasionally got into trouble with
other parties and have ON more than one
occasion appeared in court charged with
some minor offense.
On Monday they put in their time in
tdhluS IA d CaiSo VI eahSicAoos sAdo ~
paired to Boneless Chsrley's house
about in the evening. How the quar-
rel begun it is difficult to learn as the
parties are quite reticent on the subject.
1t seems that Charley's wife took him to
task for being drunk. He became in
furiated and rushed at her with an open
jack knife. Sam stepped between them
and received the blow intended for tho
woman. The knife entered his breast
just below the collar bone and severed
the large vein which lies just above an
important artery. Sam Immediately ran
for his own house which is only block
distant and Dr. Frazer was sent for
He found the wounded man lying on his
face and hands and bleeding freely
He had lost a great amount of blood.
He persisted in lying on his face until
the doctor told him he would quit the
house if he did not do as he was directed,
when he became more tractable.
A couple of night watohmen called
and tried to ascertain who did the stab
bling, but Sam, not yet sober, ordered
them out, telling them the street was
their place. The marshal then called,
but Sam refused to tell at whose hand
he received the wound, but agreed to
divulge the secret in the morning. He
informed Mr. Diaroa in fba p,ornipc but
refused to make complaint. 1t was
supposed at first that Charley had skip
ped, but he went to work as usual on
Tuesday. DR.. Frazer describes the
wound as very serious one, and thinks
it possible it may prove fatal from blood
poisoning. Sam has an immense amount
of vitality, however, and may pull thro'
all right.

remarkable and striking,-the leading
Union commanders in the civil war.

originals ever produced, several OF them
taken for this very picture; and that its
execution is the finest, the name ct the

lltely unique; no such number of distin-
guished military officers have ever been
photographed in single picture; and the
permanency of its value is attested by the
fact that the fame of the commanders in
Guided rests not merely on patriotic zeal
or partisanship, but on the disinterested
verdict of competent military officers,
both native and foreign, ranking them
beside the most distingu shed captains of
the Old World.
Besides these portraits, the picture
includes number of very fine central
and marginal sketches; the Capitol at
