A GOOD Fam.
The Retirement of a Prosperous st.
Paulite Leaves His Young PART
ners Valuable Business.

It will surprise some st. Paulites to know
that P. I. kavanagh has retired from the
highly lucrative auctioneering business. in
which he has been engaged so long.
They have known we'll, however, that he
has been, like many others. very successful
in handling real estate. For that reason he
has chosen the latter to which to give his
undivided attention.
His recent partners in the 'auctioneering
business, Messrs. E. c. Starkey and A. NJ.
Doherty. under the firm name of Starkey d
Doherty, will continue at the old location,
422 Wabasha street. and the change will in
now.se affect their claim to the distinction
of carrying on the leading auction and COM
mission business in the Northwest. to which
they will give their personal attention.
Mr.. DOherty will officiate as auctioneer as
of old. He has been in the business four
teen years. and went into that line with Mr..
Kavanagh in 1876. Mr.. Starkey has been
in the concern for four years and has be-
come equally popular with our business
men.
They make good team and VIII strike

care.

EaVeNnesa1.
A score ~ residents and property owners
on Holly c.-enue assembled at a meeting of
the board OF public works last night to urge
and demonstrate for and against the paving
OF that avenue with asphalt. Those who pro-
tested against the paving of the street argued
thai the petition for paving was signed
mostly by non-residents and those who de-
sired the impF0Y ement for speculative pur-
poses. They further commended that the i'm

were the board would show poor judgment in
ordering the street paved with asphalt until
the same pavement on Summit avenue had
been tested II least one winter. w. d. Cor

argued and gave figures showing that prop

2,78. feet frontage desired the street
paved with asphalt. The remonstrance
was signed by owners representing
only 1887 feet He said six years ago the
residents of the avenue opposed the laying of

pavement for year was simply talk, as the
opposition would he just the same next year.
He thought as the majority of the owners
demanded the paving of the street with as

Special to the Globe
PITTsBURG, Pa, Dec. 16.-A well dressed
young man appeared at the union station
early this morning, having the appearance
of a person who had been brutaIly assaulted.
There was an ugly cut on his head, from
which the blood had been flowing so freely
that his shirt and coat were saturated with
it. It was learned subsequently, that be had
been a passenger on the limited express from
the west and had jumped from the Pullman
sleeper just as the train was passing Irwin
avenue, Allegheny. a torn hat and indica-
lions of a scramble in the snow was all that
was found when the train stopped. A half
hour later a hatless man bleeding freely from
q cash in his head knocked at the door of
James Lockhart's resideI .ce on Irwin avenue.
The man asked 10 be taken in: he said that
he had fallen from train and gave his name
as John J Fox and residence at l55 Pleasant
avenue, st. Paul. He was taken in and
cared for and was then taken to the Ale
gheny general hospital, where his wound,
which consisted only of a slight scalp injury,
was dressed. He left the hospital at once
and started for the union depot. Fox told
this story TO the police and the night matron
at the hospital.

Summary of the Business of the
State Barry Commission in TWO


Dairy Commissioner Rice has completed mis-
first biennial report to the governor and the
legislature. which, with the reports of Assist
ant Commissioner Howard and Secretary Eber-
man. gives a comprehensive summary of the
work of tnS commission since its creation,an
also contains some very important recon-
mendati0us. AT the beginning of his report,
Commissioner Rice says that peculiar diff
culties attended the enforcement of the law.
The subject of this legislation was but little
understood in the state. There was not
chemist who had analysed a specimen of the
compound at which prohibitory enactment
was aimed. There was not, so far as l have
learned, physician who had studied their
effects upon the public health. Not one
LAWYER had looked up the authorities in their
hearings upon the new questions which the
act awakened, and no judge had formed an
oniniou as to the constitutionaity of the act.
Investigations made by those who were
aroused. revealed the fact that not less than
a 0O0. 600 pounds of these fraudulent pro-
dncfs. costing the people $780, 900, were sold
within the state during the winter of 1856.
This amount of money was levied as tax
anon the dairy interests Of the state, which
