FELL FULL FORTY FEET.

Jack Ansellburg has his nerve with
him as a rule. Last week he got
Charles Kronik in dark corner, and
flashing crisp twenty-dollar bill, the
figures on which were plainly discern
able in the subdued light, struck the
unsuspecting Charles for change and
got it. When Mr.. Kronik looked at the
bill in the glare of an electric
light and found that it was Confederate,
there was music in the air. and he has
be en- looking for Ansellburg ever since.
Ansellburg returned to West st. Paul
last evening after having vacation on
the $50, and was arrested, being re-
leased on $50 bail. Kronik was also put
under $50 bail to secure his appear
ance.
A German labOrer named Joseph
SchwarZ, who has been for some time
employed on the Wabasha street bridge
repairs, fell frem one of the spans on
the south end of the bridge at about 80
yesterday afternoon, a sheer drop of
forty feet to the bank below. He was
picked up in a semi-unconscious condi-
tioE, having sustained a fracture of the
right thigh, and severe internal in
j L
ent impossible to designate. The I'M
fortunate man was removed in the
Ducas street patrol to the st. Jos eph's
hospital. He is single man and
boarded at house on Cedar street. near
Twelfth. At last accounts Schwarz was
resting as easily as could be expected,
considering the nature of his injuries.
A runaway team went tearing across
the Robert street bridge at about 1880
yesterday morning, scattering every
thing before them, until they ran full
tilt into dirt wagon. which refused to
scatter, and the runaWayS made frantic
efforts to climb over the obstruction,
succeeding as far as to poke the tongue
the arm of the stolid but surprised
German. who was driving the
dirt rig, who was thrown some
distance, and got up even more sur
priSed than hurt. he found time, how
ever, to yell in good gutteral German as
ne described a meteor-like curve
through the heavy falling snow, "Who's
going to put up for this" The run
away horses were eXtricated from their
uhwOnted predicament, when it was
found that the damage was less
erious than expected, there being no
one hurt.
