A Bank Failure.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, February l.-Rit-
Finger Bros bank, established in 1867.
which did large business among Ger
mans, did not open its doors this morn
ing. The proprietOrs, Frank l.. and
Augustus W. Ritzinger, have made an
assignment to Geo. Il. Candies. While
there had been some talk affecting the
standing of the bank, it had not been
generally discussed, but the rumors have
been widespread enough to affect the
banks customers, causing falling off of
its business to such degree as to neces-
state suspension of business. The senior
partner, when asked what caused the
assignment, ter ely said the bank had
been talked to death. While there had
been no run on the bank. old customers
had dropped off. One of the ATTORNEYS
says the assets amount to between $780,
600 and 100000, but much of it in real
estate is not easily convertible. The
Liabilities amount to as great a sum, il is
believed. As the result of this assign
ment, a run has been begun on S. A.
Fletcher q Co.'s bank, but 1t 10 believed
they will be amply able to weather the
storm. This bank is the oldest in the
city and regarded as the most subsIan-
tial. No effect has yet been felt by the
national banks.

How Some Accidents Occur.

The frequency with which I'M
loaded guns and pistols are dis
charged with fatal results is sug-
gestive of the suspicion that some
of the alleged deplOrable accidents
are the result of deep design.
These peculiar accidents reminds
one of a conversation that occurred
between two negroes.
"What has yer got wrOpped up

smile that was calculated to pro.

A Universal Bazaar,

A ''yOung man from the country"
entered one of the large variety
stores in this city a few days ago
and wandered around looking at
everything with admiring eyes.
The variety of goods and the rich
cOlOring fairly bewildered him.
He passed from department to
department, his wonder increasing
more, and at last he said to him
self, but loud enough to be over
heard by people in his immediate
vicinity:
There amt nOthin' under the
sun that they don't keep here"
Just then a baby carried by
some mother on shopping tour
set up loud yell in a distant part
of the store. The rustic's eyes
opened to their widest extent, and
he added:
"And I'll be goldurned if they
don't sell babies here, toow-[ BOs-

Among the modern improvements de-
serving of special mention is that of a
Cincinnati haUkman who carries on his
seat with him a bag of sleep-iDducing
gas which he blows into the tigh ly-
closed hack for the purpose of putting
his passenger to sleep before rObbing
him. This is decided improvement on
the old method of robbing passenger
before his very eyes by exhOrbitant
rates. The pecuniary loss may not be
reduced by the new method, but If a
man is asleep it does not CRATE so harshly
on his feelings.

Street Railway Injunction.

Judge Aldredge this morning de-
cided the injunction suit against the
Commerce & Ervay street railway
company, brought by property owners
on Swiss avenue to restrain the rail
way company from extending its line
through that street. The decision was
in favor of the plaintiffs and, there
fore, the road cannot'be built through
Swiss avenue. The HERALD has no
comments to make, further thV it
would have been good thing for the
city to have street'car line to the
cemeteries, and certainly great con-
venience to the public, especially the
people of Northeast Dallas.

Breach of Promise Suit.

CHICAGO, Oct. 16.-A pretty To-
year-old girl named Mary Ruby came
to the house of Edward Hcdricks, the
clerk in Justice Woodman's court, late
last night, and asked to have war
rant issued for the arrest of Albert
Sacha, of No. 23 Burlington street. On
being questioned she stated that she
was engaged to be married to Sacha
on the 9th of this month, but when
the wedding day came to hand the
bridegroom failed to put in an appear
ance. All the wedding arrangements
had been completed, and the invita-
tions had even been sent out. The
next day they met, but he refused to
notice her or even answer question.
1t was learned, however, that he had
returned the marriage license the day
after he had taken it out. The girl
was advised to commence breach of
promise suit, and the case was COM
menced before Justice Woodman this
morning.

became possessed Of most intense
hatred for certain travelling man who
is an agent for widely known patent
medicine. To avenge herself of some
fancied insult she procured quantity
of cowhage and plentifully besprink-
led his bed with it. AS result, the
victim of the girls malice was driven
nearly frantic. His groans attracted
attention, and help was summoned
lie was given warm BATH and sound
ly scrubbed. Afterwards cold cream
was applied, but it was several hours
before he could find any relief.
