Treasurer Grissinger Notified Not Ia Pay 10
shs City Their shsre OF the License Fand,
There has been an unsettled account
pending between the city and county for
oome years, growing out OF damages
paid by the county for opening of
streets, which the county claims
should have been paid by the city.
The bills OF the msyor for cases disposed OF
during the paat eight years have never
been paid In cash, but credited to this fund.
The county commissioners, through their
special counsel, Messrs. Hostetter and
Boyer, are endeavoripg TO get what they
cjaim the city owes through the county
treasurer, and that official was L r>titisd
nos to pay the city the Sl5,O0J to
Whlch they were entitled ss their
share Of the liquor licenses. When the city
solicitor was informed OF this notice II was
decided TO hold conference. 1t waa held
this afternoon. Treasurer Grissing.r was
represented by j. Hay Brown, the city by
w. r. Brown, and the commissioners by
AessrA Hostetter and Boyer. Nothing
definite was agreed upon at this conference
The city authorities have for years been
ondsavoring to adjust this account, but
thus far have been unsuccessful The city
eolicitor thinks that the claims OF the county
cannot be substantIsted, and that the city
Will be greatly benefited financially whom

After the smoke had cleared away it was
found that the Hatfield party were badly

killed, while none of the Mccoy posse were
hurt. Those known to be killed were: John

An Almshouse takes Fire with Fatal
Effect-A Heroic Rescuer.
Fire in East Village, near Munroe, Conn,
destroyed the Almshonse and an adjoining
building, and three persons were burned t.
death. Thomas Colyer, who sleeps in the
poor house. was awakened about $3.50 o'clock,
by falling dishes, and, seeing the flames in the
building adjoining the poor house, gave an
alarm and tried to arouse the inmates Of the
Almshouse. He then rushed into the dwell
ing where Mrs Wheeler, the owner of the
building, lay sleeping. The smoke was
suffocating, but Colyer groped through
it to the bed of Mrs Wheeler and carried her
outside in safety. The Almshouse was by
this time in flames and Colyer rushed into it,
giving an alarm and trying to waken the in
mates. There were 12 persons in the poor
house, and Colyer assisted nine Of them to
escape from the burning building, three of
them perishing before he could reach them.
The paupers and Mrs. Whesling suffered se-
yerely from insufficient clothing, as nothing
had been saved from the building. They
were obliged to take shelter in an outhouse
while waiting for help from the neighbors.
Colyer and Mrs. Wheeler were severely but
not fatally bu ned. The cause of the fire is
not yet known

TRAGEDY IN REAL LIFE.
The Story of Romeo and Juliet
Acted Again in the Massachu-
setts Hills


The following story comes from Hancock,
an isolated hill town near the New Yosk
State line. Carrie Brockaway, aged Is years,
has been receiving attention from Washing
ton Sweet. Farmer Brockaway, her father,
and her two brothers objected and warned
Sweet to desist Tie warning was disre-
garded. Brockaway and his two sons armed
themselves and went to Sweets house.
Sweet learned of their coming and barTi-
caded the house When admittance was
demanded, Sweet shot from a window,
seriously wounding one Of the sons in the hip.
Shooting continued on both sides for some
time Finally the shots from within
ceased.
Just then Carrie. having heard of the ac-
tion of her father and brothers, reached the
scene She cried to her lover not to shoot, as
the Brockaways approached the house
When the door was forced open, Sweet was
found apparently dead, with bullet wound
in his neck The girl frantically upbraided
her relatives, AMI seizing carving knife from
a table cut her throat, and fell dead across
Sweets body. Sweet revived, but will prob
ably die.
The inhabitants Of the village, mostly
French Canadians, are greatly excited, and
as they are taking sides for and against the
Brockaways. the ill-feeling may result in more
violence
