CURE OF PLEURISY.

so MAIN STREET, GLOUCESTER, MASS,
April 10. 1855.
Aheocks porous plasters have been used in
our family for the last three or four years with
very beneficial results. Previous to that time
j hst been subject to attacks of severe pain in
my left side. Hot cloths and liniments afforded
temporary relief, but after while the pain
always returned. In the fall OF 1880, after q
very severe attack, was advised by friend to
try an Allcocks porous plaster on my side,
which greatly benefited me- After that tried
several kinds of pasters To see which was the
best and finally decided that AiIcocks suited
my case best. have wofn them constantly on
my side ever since, and have never been
troubled with the pain, except when left them
OF for a few days. We always keep a supply
in the house, and whenever pain seiZes any of
Us, in any part OF the body, we just apply an
Allcsck plaster, and can most heartily recon-
mend them. JAMES PETTIGREW.

The gale which preceded the rain yesterday
afternoon and blew with considerable force in
this vicinity developed into Il tornado in West
Washington. A portion OF the roof of Cissell

from the dust room of the building gave rise
to an alarm of fire. which called out the fire
department.. The damage is about $3.50. The
roof of Hers mill near by was also damaged
to the extent OF about $40. On High street.

PISTOL POOL ROOM.
A Game OF - Five-uP'' Ends in Serious
shooting A1Fair-An Innocent SPecta-
tor Shot.

Last night about six O'Clock "a serious shoot
ing affair occurred in Chris. Maisak's beer
saloon and pool room, corner OF Massachusetts
avenue and Fifth street northwest. Emmanuel
Madison a young cOlored man who was merely
looking on, received probably fatal shot in the
abdomen. II appears that party OF colored
men were ia the saloon playing pool and cards,
and a dispute arose over game between Will
liam Crawford and "Pete'' Ames The game
ended in a fight between the two men who
were playing "fiveup." Crawford was worsted
in the fight and beaten I'm the game. He &C
knowledged his defeat and paid for his loss.
Ames did hot appear satisfied, and his friend,
Wash. Meredith, urged on a second fight, but
Crawford acknowledged that Ames could whip
him. Crawford did not like the part Meredith
was taking in the trouble, and after some words
passed between them Crawford drew a pistol
and fired at Meredith. AS Crawford was cOnsid-
erably under the influence of liquor. his aim
was not correct, and instead of striking Mere
dith the ball entered Madson's abdomen and
inflicted probably fatal wound. The officers
of the seventh precinct were at once notified,
and Officers Oliver and Fisher, with the patrol
wagon. were soon upon the scene. While the
injured man was being cared for the officers
started in pursuit of Crawford. and captured
was taken to the seventh precinct station and
locked up The injured man was conveyed to
Freedmans hospital. His wound is considered
to be OF a dangerous character. The revolver
was picked up on the street and turned over to
Lieutenant Kelly.
CRAwFORD's ACCOUNT OF THE AFFAIR.
The prisoner, when seen in his cell last night
by a STAR reporter, said that he shot at and in
tended to kill Wash. Meredith, and would not
have cared had he accomplished his purpose,
but was very sorry he shot Madison, who was
his friend. He said he had been in the saloon
since IL o'clock in the morning drinking and
playing cards and pool: he had been playing
"five-up' with Ames for beer He said he lost
the game and paid for the beer over another
game they had dispute, and Ames whipped
him. He said he admitted that Ames could
whip him and declined to fight, but Wash.
Meredith urged Ames TO fight. After quarreling
some minutes Crawford said Meredith threat
ened to smash his brains out, and knowing
Merediths character he drew his pistol and
fired.
CRAWFORD COMMITTED TO JAIL.
This morning in the Police Court Crawford
was charged with assault and battery with in
tent to kill Mr.. Thomas stated that he had
been informed that the man had been shot in
the abdomen and was dangerously wounded.
and on that account he would ask that the case
be continued without bail, which was done, and
Crawford was committed to Jail.
