Said the LIQUOR Was Given to Him.

This morning in the Police Court Patrick B.
Dunn was charged with selling liquor in
quantities less than pint. Policeman Hass
testified that he sent old colored man
(Bohannan) to get half pint of liquor. The
old man got half pint Friday and another
half pint Saturday. He (the ofRcer) declined
to say if he had drank liquor in Dunn's
Bohannan admitted that he got the liquor, but
said that the clerk first refused to sell il to
HIM, but then gave it to him. The court asked
what he had done with the quarter the officer
gave him. ~ kept it, said the old man. ..Of
course he gave it to buy the liquor, but if
got 1t for nothing was that much in " The
court said he could not convict on this evil
dence and dismissed the case.

He was Ignorant of the Facts.

Mr.. Timothy Mccarthy, who was charged
with Robert d. Ruffin in the Police Court yes
terday with obtaining money under false pre-
fences from Robert A. Green, stated to STAR
reporter that, being ill at the time the offence
was committed, Ruffin acted as his agent, and
he (McCarthy) was ignorant of his having re-
ceived money from Green. When he learned
the facts he was only too glad that Green should
have the money returned to him.

ATTEMPT AT MURDER.
A Discharged Sailor Tries to XIII o
Woman Near Castle Alley.

The New York Worlds London dispatch SAYS,
Toward midnight Friday the life Of another
woman was attempted close by Castle alley. A
woman and man were seen TO approach dark
portion of the thoroughfare near the Aldgats
east station. The pair did not remain long in
the corner before the woman was heard to cry;
mo, won'tI' The remark was addressed 70
dark man of medium height, with q SLOUGH
hat, and Of foreign appearance. The man
seized her, dragged her short distance. flung
her upon the curbstone and produced dagger.
Screams OF Jack the Ripperr" and Of MUIR
der" attracted crowds Of men and women
from all directions. Among the first arrivals
at the scene were several members Of the local
vigilance association, which has only Just re-
sumed its work. Before the man had time 20
get far he was seized and dreadful struggle
ensued. He had long knife in his hand and 10
was some time before he could be deprived Of
it, Eventually il was taken from him. Even
then his tight for liberty was of most deter
mined nature. In the midst Of the ARRAY the
woman crawled away. Police whistles we're
heard in all directions. A great number Of
officials, both Of the city and of the Metropolis
tan forces, appeared on the scene. When the
police reached the spot the man was cut and
bleeding profusely from wounds inflicted by
the crowd, who had raised the cry of lynch
him, and were throwing all kinds Of missiles
at the exhausted prisoner. Under o strong
escort Of police he was got to the police station,
where he was charged. In reply he said: Tho
woman robbed me-" When asked why he
drew the dagger, he replied that he had done
90 In self-defense. He said that he was q sailor
and gave a Scotch name. adding that he had
arrived from South Shields about . week ago.
When asked where he was on the morning Of
the 18th instant, he could not say. He did nos

Cleaning the Streets.

Mr.. F. NJ. Draney, who has the contract for
sweeping the streets Of Washington, stated to q
STAR reporter to-day that if the streets are not
cleaned often enough it is not his fault as he
is compelled to sweep according to the schedule
furnished him by the health department. With
the exception of Pennsylvania avenue, 7th
street and street, which are daily streets, I"
all the streets are swept just when the health
department orders it. The more such orders
the more profitable to the contractor, as he
gets pay only for sweeping done. As to COM
plants about streets not being left clean, Mr..
Draney said the greatest pairs are taken to see
that the dirt when swept into the cutters IL re-
moved. If any is left behind he is docked for
it. Frequent investigations of alleged care
lessness in this respect have resulted in show
ing that the dirt complained of was swept into
the cutters in the morning after the sweeping
machines had done their work and the piles
removed. He did not deny that the men,
sixty of whom are employed, might be negli-
gent occasionally, but everything possible is
always done to prevent it.
AS to the garbage. Mr.. Draney said that fire.
quently the collectors are unable to get any re-
Spouse to knocks at back gates. and then COM
plants are made that the garbage is not col
iected. He has sufficient force and teams to
clean the streets properly and to collect the
city's garbage, and if either is not done prop
erly it is not his fault.

Separating Oil and Water.

A good story told of certain
chemist is to the effect that manu-
iacturer of some patent compound
or other came into his laboratory
one day with bottle containing an
unwholesome-looking mixture.
II would give hundred dollars, he
said, ito know what would make the
water and oil in this emulsion sepa-
rate"
The chemist looked att
Every well, he said, write your
check"
Check" the other echoes. Eyes,
yonr cheek for a hundred dollars.
You say you are willing to give that
and for that price am willing to
tell you what viii make the water
and oil separate.
The visitor hesitated moment
and then wrote his check for the sum
named, The chemist carefully de-
posted it in his poeketbook and
then quietly dropped into liquid a
pinch of common salt. Instantly
the water and oil separated, and
whether the client was satisfied or
not he had got what he wanted and
he had paid his own price for it,

The Tall Tower idea,

1t has been remarked of the Eifiel
tower as a specimen of engineering
it is simply variation from the
ordinary method of iron bridge
building. The American engineers
who visited France, England and
Scotland n few weeks ago, greatly
admired the Eiffel, but regarded the
bridge in course of construction
across the Firth of Forth as far
more remarkable. They do not con-
slider it a remarkable thing to erect
an iron tower 800 meters in height.
1t reposes perpendicularly upon firm
foundations, and the weight of the
material is easily sustained.
1t is far more phenomenal per-
Torrance to build out on the canti-
lever plan structure extending,
unsupported by false work, for a
thousand feet over an arm of the
sea. That was the wonder our
engineers witnessed in Scotland, and
it was immensely more impressive
than the simple iron edifice, notable
chiefly for its perfection of details
and colossal proportions, that is
the leading attraction of the French
exposition.
We have mentioned that there was
n proposition before the committee
of managers of the Philadelphia
centennial for the erection OF an iron
tower 1000 feet high, and that it
was rejected because the estimated
cost, 81 100000, was held to be ex-
travagaut. 1t would be worth while
to look through the old Papers Of
the Fourth of July cen tennial, and
see how closely the work proposed
and rejected for the banks OF the
Schuylkill has been followed in that
which has been erected on the Seine

They Bolted a Farmer.

Cramps, headed for Detroit,
came along to my place the other
day." said a Wayne county farmer,
oand, as was busy cutting corn
and in hurry to get the work
over, | asked them if they wanted
a job, They higgled and haggled
for awhile and then agreed to take
hold at 81 day, pravided / would
give them lunch to begin on.
1t was about 10 o'clock in the
forenoon and / brought out n
lunch and they sat dowu in the field
to eat it. I've seen tramps before,
and while they were eating had
one of my boys turn out my three
dogs and post them where they
might do the most good.
AFTER eating their lunch the
tramps cast their eyes around to
see where l was, and, as | had my
back turned to them, they bolted
for the highway. / didn't say a
word, but the dogs tumbled to the
trick and were on hand"
"Did they bite emp" was asked.
"Isn't that what dogs are for?"
he innocently replied. Il guess
they bit 'em. / heard a good deal OF
yelling and whooping for the police,
but the police didn't show up,
When / went over 20 investigate
the tramps were half mile down the
road, running for victory or death,
while each dog was playing with q
bundle made up of coat-tails and
trouser-legs. Mebbe them tramps
got ahead ofme, but if you happen
to meet 'em just ask EN- if they
think they did. Detroit Ere,

The Art OF Prolonglng Life.

Dr. Robson Roose in Popular Science Monthly.
Exercise is essential to the preser-
walton of health; inactivity is po-
tent cause of wasting and degenera-
ton. The vigor and equality of the
circulation, the functions of the skin
and the aereation of the blood are
all promoted by muscular activity,
which thus keeps up a proper bal
ance and relation between the inn
portant organs of the body. In
youth, the vigor of the system is
often so great that il one organ be
sluggish another part will make
amends for the deficiency by acting
vicariously, and without any con-
seuuent damage to itself In old
are the tasks cannot be thus
shifted from one organ to another;
the work allotted to each sufficiently
taxes it's strength, and vicarious
action cannot be performed without
mischief. Hence the Importance OF
maintaining, as far as possible, the
equable action of the vital processes
assigned to each shall be properly
accomplished. For this reason ex.
ercise is an important part of the
conduct of life in old age; but dis
cretion is absolutely necessary. An
old man should discover by expert
ence how much exercise he can take
without exhausting his powers, and
should be careful never to exceed the
limit. Old persons are apt to forget
