The Drunken stnbbing ARRAY Probably Not
FataI-Jealousy the Cause.-The Cutter,
Connolly. Not Arrested.
The man Godfrey, who was thought to
have been fatally stabbed early yesterday
morning in house on the Hill, under the
Seventeenth street incline, is now said to be
improving, and there are no doubts that he
will recover. The cuts were evidently
made with penknife. There is a long cash at
the back of his neck, and a cut four inches
long over his groin. through which the intes-
tines were protruding.
The story of the affair." as told by Inspector
McAleese, is that two men, Godfrey and Con-
molly, with two women, Anna King and Mollie
Staub, were in the house drinking heavily and
carousing. The two men were quite friendly,
but one is an Orangeman, and the other is not,
and they drifted from ribald songs into talk,
and finally a quarrel on religion and politics
A scufie ensued, and Godfrey was cut Some
idea of the drunken condition of the party
may be given when it is known the wounded
man lay on the floor bleeding profusely for
half an hour before either he or his woman
companions knew he was cut.
The women were arrested and are in Central
station. No reliance is placed on their stories
as they appear to have but hazy idea OF what
occurred. McAleese has men all over the city
watching for Connolly, and in all probability
he will be arrested before morning.
At one time yesterday it was thought God
frey would become delirious, and, if acute in
fiammation set in, he would die In order to
anticipate any such event, the Inspector had
his sworn statement taken as follows:
/, James Godfrey, a resident of Pittsburg, at 49
Hazel street, do make this statement, being
seriously injured and not knowing IL will re-
cover: This morning, March 8, 1889, Mike Con-
molly. two women and myself were drinking at
the house Of Ann King, l3l Crescent alley, near
the Seventeenth street incline. We had some
words in the evening before this he tore my shirt
at that time. At the tine of the occurrence the
two women were sitting on the bed. He was fool
ing with Anna King, when the other woman,
Mary staub, got up and came into the
other room where / was. She was mad at
Mike for fooling with Anna. Mike came
into the room after her. 1 don't remember what
said but he struck me. cannot say whether l
struck back or not. but he knocked me down and
commenced kicking me. cannot say III 1t was
then he cut me. don't know at what time in the
struggle he cutme: 1t was dark in the room. As
soon as told him he had cut me he ran out of the
house. followed him into the next house. This
occurred about O'Clock in the morning of March
g.. am an unmarried man. Early in the evening
when Connolly and had the words he said he
would knock my brains out or kick my brains out.
never had any quarrel with him before Con-
molly came to the house by himself that evening.

KICKED BY A CRAZY MAN,
A Case of Typhoid Fever Results in Insanity
for a Farmer.

A Case OF Typhoid Fever Results In Insanity
for a Farmer.
A very inofensive passenger on the Penn
sylvania Railroad had the pleasure of being
kicked in the back by crazy man last
night. About $40 o'clock there drove up
to the Union station carriage containing four
men. The horses were covered with foam and
the wheels spattered with mud, as if they had
come great distance.
One of the men alighted, and then attempted
to lift another man out The latter objected.
The two other men then had to drag him, and,
with one on each side and one in the rear, they
pushed and dragged him along until they got
to the gate. An innocent passenger. attracted
by the noise and yells the man made for free
dom, got in the way, and. before he could get
out of the road, he was crazily kicked in the
back.
The man who kicked made an attempt to
run at everybody who got in front of him, and
was only prevented from doing harm by his
captors. The latter dragged him along, and
had to fairly carry him into the coach.
1t was then found that he was Gilbert Myers,
of Westmoreland county, and he was being
taken to the Warren Insane Asylum for treat
ment. He was farmer living along the banks
of the Youghiogheny river, and, about a year
ago, had an attack of typhoid fever. 1t affected
his mind, and he has been growing worse since.
Last night he wanted to kill his two brothers
(who were with him) by running a red-hot
poker through their hearts. The party had
driven q miles in the carriage in the afternoon.

ANOTHER VERY BOLD BAPTISM.
A Colored Octet Go Down Into the AIle-

A Colored Octet Go Down Into the AIle-
gheny Before Many Witnesses.
The banks of the Allegheny river, as well
as the boats and barges on both sides, were
lined with curious crowds yesterday after
noon, to witness the baptism of eight colored
converts of an Allegheny colored congrega-
tion. The snow-clad banks and drizzling of
snow and rain that had just commenced. gave
many of the curious spectators a sympathetic
shiver as the colored preacher bravely waded
out from the Allegheny, with pole to find his
way, until he was up to his arm-pits.
When he had found a suitable spot he beck
oned to four colored women on the banks, who
waded out to him with black dresses on, and
white caps mot the threatening kind) There
was an agitation of the waters followed by a
shiver and several other manifestations of dis
comfort from each, and the four waded backIto
shore.
Four men then braved the rigors of the deep
as the spectators drew their overcoats involun-
tarily around themselves. The preacher had
hard work bringing one of the male candi-
dates up, and the baptized man gurgled as
though he was nearly drowned, but finally re-
gained his feet and waded ashore amid the
singing of the vast congregation.

Rev. J. M. Fulton. pastor OF the First U.

interesting sermon yesterday evening. II
was the second in the series Of Education ana
Educators" !" and the special phase OF his sub
iect was: "why all should be educated In our
public schools"
He said that the public schools were supe-
rior to the private or Parochial schools, which
had an un-American tendency. I'm the paro-
chial schools" he said, ''they take from rather
than give to. 1 have no sympathy for man
that has no creed or sympathy for any religion.
A sectarian education, though, gives pupils an
Education that units them for good citizenship
and is un.American. Their system of educa-
tion is not as good as that Of the public
schools"
He criticized the methods employed in the
parochial schools and commended those in the
public schools.
