Eerly yesterday morning co7Ardly and
das,ardiy outrage was committed upon
Henry Myers, ycsug man who resides at
No. 1923 Eoff street. The young man,
who is rather tall and heavily builr, works
at Scbnulbach's brewery and yesterday
morning, aboEt 2:30 O'Clock he started for
the brewery having sorse extra work 10
perform. As be reached the corner of Eof
and Thirty-sevensh streets EHvo men jamped
from behiad fepse and one Of them struck
Myers on the back of the head blow wsicn
for an instant, sort IF stunned him. How.
ever be threw out his arm and caught
bis assailant around she neck, AMI the head
he held in chancery would have undoubt"
edly received q severe drubbing had not
the companion of the viiisn struck Myers
terrible blow just back Of the ear with
another club. This blow had the eject OF
knocking Myers iDto the gutter and dazing
him for a,second, but when the thug, saw
him arising they made of as fast as
their heeis could carry them, fear
ing, no, Doubt that if Myers once
got hold of them he would
use them both up in q severe and deserved
manner.
To show how cowcrdly WIS the attack,
p friend of Myers passed TIE gas post
which stands on the corner absut fifteen
minutes previcas to the assault, and the
light was burning brightly, but the scoun-
drsls had evidently turneo-it out in order to
rauain nnaeen AMI Rhu q filrsher the poakempt-
BILE work. Mr.. Myers thinks that the men
had some grudge against him and knowing
that they could not safely tackle him open
handed, took this means of getting revenge.
he was able to woris yesterday although he
had two ugly bumps on the back Of bis
head.

Decoration Day will be very generally OBJ.
served this year in this city. Numerous in
vitations have been extended to the various
local societies of this city and the semi

Veteran Association, the Knights Of St,
George, the knights of St. John, the Plumed
Knights, Young Mems Democratic Club
the Wheeling Light Guards, the Wheeling

4 Little War Stirred Up in the South
End.
Monday night about twelve o'clock after
the Wheeling Light Guards boys had fin
ished their practice drill at the Alhambra
rralace rink and were leaving the rink .
number of roughs indulged IN the pastime
of calling them insulting names and hurting
epithets at them which were decidedly OBJ
noxious. Some of the boys resented the
insulting language, whereupon the gang
hurled stones at them. This settled the
matter and the boys rushed into the gang
determined to wresk vengeance upon their
tormentors, and it looked for time as i.
there would be little war, and blood be
gan to appear upon the face of the moon
One Of the toughs pulled out big knife
and began cleaying the air with it in dan,
gerous proximity to the crowd but he was
soon quelled BY one of the boys getting in a
sumner back Of his ear which knocked him
silly for an instant Then the gang, seeing
that the Guards were likely to get away with
them, dispersed. There promises to be
trouble if the affair is repeated.

first bow to the Wheeling public, Est night,
at the ALEXANDRA Palace rink, and, gave a
very fine exhibition drill that greatly. pleased
the refined audience present.
That which particularly pleased tie spec
tator was the combat scene in tie stick
drill. 1t evoked immense applause The
evolutions by fours sections, and company
front, were all very finely done AMI were
greeted with enthusiastic applause. So
pleased were the spectators with the drill
that they have requested the Light Guards
TO repeat the drill at the Albania. Palace
rink on next Tuesday night. The request
will be acted upon at the meeting Of the
Light Guards which occurs tonight. The
GUARDS are to be congratulated on last

He Is Given a week to Show That He Is OF
Good Fame.
The hearing on the writ ofhabeas corpus
in the case of P. J. Ford was had before
Judge Jacob yesterday at noon in Part two
of the Circuit Court. John o. Pendleton
was counsel for the prisoner and Prescott
ing Attorney Jordan for the State. Several
witnesses were examined, and the hit oil
burglars tools played prominent part in
the evidence. The evidence all went to
show that Ford had acted under very sui
picious circumstances that led the court to
believe that he was was undoubtedly
crooked. After the evidence was all in the
counsel on both sides rested the case,
without argument and the judge rendered
his decision, which was to the effect that
the evidence showed conclusively that Ford
was not of good character and he decided the
writ should hold good for one week longer,
when, if the prisoner is unable TO prove
that be is of good fame and explain salts
factorily why be was in possession Of the
burglars tools, the writ OF hsbeas corpus
will be annulled and the prisoner held, in
the meantime Ford was remanaed to jail.
This decision virtually sustains that of the
lower court in the case, over which Justice
R. B. Woods presided.
