Ed Cashel. a railroad man, was ar
raigned in the police court yesterday
morning on a charge of forgery. EnOch
Melander, a teamster residing at 523
Beaumont street, was the complaining
witness, alleging that Cashel had
passed a worthless check for $50 on him.
The case was continued unIil to- NOR
row. Andy Anderson had been as
saulted by Hans Peterson and his two
sons, John and Peter, in a row on Court
land street. Judge Burr estimated An

vided the fine among the three defend
ants. James DAILY, accused of a viola

was discharged. Michael Meyer is
eighty-five years of age, and there was
no evidence that he had been monkey

some cause or other the old gentleman

the spell was on he amused himself by
hopping the floor with Mrs. Meyer,
eighty-three years old, who had him ar

exacted. John Musberg, Henry Weber,

medical aid summoned, emeties being

Earned by a Jehu Who Owned
Rice Street.

A city surgeon was called to the
Rondo street police station yesterday
afternoon to dress a bad flesh wound
across the nose and left cheek of a pris-
Oner confined there. The unfortunate
was John Cunningham, a ''eabby" who
drives for Allen d Co., and the cause of
his sad plight was too much whisky OF
the ''orphan maker" brand. About 4
o'clock Cunningham attempted to drive
all traffic from Rice street by running
his horse up and down the thoroughfare
at a break-neck pace. His innocent
amusement was finally stopped by the
employees of Ferris livery at 456 Rice
street. who turned out and corralled the
crazy driver, running his horse into the
barn. A general scrap then ensued. in
which Cunningham got much the worst
of it. He was subsequently arrested.
but it was not learned who cut him or
what kind of a weapon the wound was
inflicted with.

No matter what time of day one visits

value of the invention. Large numbers
of railroad men-brakemen, conductors,

OWN THE

Fifteen hundred dollars was the mod
est sum of money taken in yesterday at
the .'sidewalk annex" to a leading Sew
enth street grocery house. 1t was a
great thing for the proprietOrs, it was a
great display of choice vegetables and
fruits, and the whole business was a
great hindrance to pedestrians who
were unfortunate enough to pass that
way. The piles of vegetables and
baskets of fruit took up more than half
of the sidewalk, while the other half
was INSTRUCTED by a dozen ''Open air"
clerks and fifty to a hundred chattering
women. This state of affairs was the
same from Z o'clock yesterday morning
until 9 last night.
Query" to use the words of Capt.
Berkey, "HOw long can the city go On
at this rate?!"-and have any streets
left? Any one who has watched the
of grocery store displays can
easily imagine a dire calamity. With
the viOlets and buttercups last spring
came a few punches of pale lettuce. a
weak onion or two, and young radishes
that blushed a deep red as they en-
places on narrow boards in front of the
stores. Then came the more Obtrusive
tomatoes, cucumbers and other cholera
mGrbi (Latin), necessitating an extern
sion of the outside shelves. Now, every
well-regulated grocery maintains upon
the sidewalk a complete stock of every
vegetable grown from Winnipeg to st.
Augustine.
Within a few months they will I'M
dOubtedly carry the war into Africa by
fencing up a fewOf our public thorough
fares and growing their own vegetables
in full view of patrons. This would
dispel all doubts as to the freshness of
stock, and the idea will undoubtedly be
carried out unless the grOcer's nerve
should suddenly fail him. There is also
a bare possibility that such a scheme
might be frustrated by action of the
police department.

for getting wives for his bachelor

his native land and while there found
that there were a large number of

happy to find homes and husbands in

curing the photographs of a number of
these young ladies he brought them
back with him and lost no opportunity
to show them to his bachelor friends.
He told them that he had the promise
of these young ladies that they would

would recommend, and. as a conse'
quence, a great many OF his neighbors

SPONTANEOUS COMBUSTION,
How It Comes About and the Materials
Which Cause 1t.

From all the principles of chemistry
spontaneous combustion is q possible,
and, in fact. q frequent phenomenon.
Prof. VIM. P. Tonrv, the chemist. says
the flame in such cases invariably
arise from a combustion of oxygen with
some material favorable to producing
heat.
Wherever there is turpentine there is
always danger Of spontaneous combus-
tlon. If the substance be poured on
rags, especially when they are soaked
with grease, fire is likely to result. Fur.
niture establishments and all places
where oils and turpentine are kept are
especially liable to visitatons from fires
of inexplicable origin.
Hay, when moist and packed tightly,
ferments by a natural process and alb
serbs oxygen so freely as to produce
flame in many instances. SuIphuric
acid if allowed to come in contact with
bagging at fertilizer factories is also
source Of great danger. The same acid,
it mixed with water, produces intense
heat.
A common source of unexpected com.
uuotloH Is oLe gas WHICH, eSCdpeS from "
Jet which has been carelessly left open.
Gas and common air produce an eX-
plosive compound which can be touched
of like gunpowder by tiny flame.
Prof. Tonry says it is very difficult to
prevent combustion which arises from
natural combinations, although thor
ough ventilation and cleanliness in pri-
waite houses and business establishments
will goa long way toward reducing the
danger. The phenomenon is common
to all seasons, although temperature
of 10 or so degrees. which is high
enough for fermentation, is most favor
able to it.
An accumulation of inhammable ma
terial is always to>be avoided. 1t was
once believed that human bodies, espe-
cially those of inebtiates, We're liable to
take fire and be consumed spontaneous
ly, but the theory finds but little ac-
ceptance in these DAYS.

honey soap is always preferable. OF
course one may rely on scented soap

costs more than it is worth. In addi-
