INSTANTLY KILLED.
Flick JOhnsOn's Skull Crushed
While He Was At Work.

Flick Johnson. laborer employed on
sewer construction at Lyndale avenue
and TWenty-seventh street, under Con-
tractor George Sublette. was almost in
stantIy killed yesterday afternoon while
at work. Johnson was standing near
the end of rope which was being used
to move the engine of the eXcayating
machine. That end of the tackle was
anchored to heavy iron plank. AS the
strain increased on the rope, the anch-
orage gave away, and the heavy iron
s'dog" struck johnson on the right
temple. crushing the skull and killing
him instantly. Under the direction of
Coroner Towers, the body was removed
to ConnoIly's morgue, where an inquest
will be held at 10 o'clock Monday morn
ing, and the blame fixed where it be-
longs. 1t is possible that damage suit
against the city will result. johnson
was Swede and had been Ill this
country but short time. He was nine
teen years old, unmarried, and lived
with his uncle at 40 East TWenty-eighth
street.

don Their Libel Suit.
The famous heroine of 'La Tosca'
fame, Miss Fanny Davenport, will once
more air her difficulties with Arthur A.
Lotto and Jean Ii. Williams i'll the DIS
trict court, and this time it will be to
answer to a case of damages some
what in excess of those alleged In
the first complaint of these two gentie-
men, Lotto and Williams. Yesterday
the attorney for the two actors mace
motion to amend his complaint specify
ing special damages because, or MISS
Davenport'S action toward these Two
ex-members of her company. This
amendment to the complaint is prepar-
atory to a second trial OF the dam
age suits previously brought against
her. 1t will be remembered that after
a protracted and exceedingly interest
ing trial at the last term of court the
jury failed to agree upon verdict. MI,
Sherer claims that he has attempted
to serve the amended complaint
upon both Of Miss Davenport'S
attorneys but without sue
cess, both of them refusing to ac-
cept service. An agreement was, how
ever, made to have the matter come up
for hearing yesterday and to have an
argument upon the amendment. Under
the proposed amendment i'll Williams
case he says that, prior to the posting
of the alleged libelous notice by MISS
Davenport, he was acquainted with
Webster and Brady. the theatrical
agents, III New York city. They, not
knowing of the notice, employed MN
to take part in their ''She" company
at good salary. Upon becoming aware
of the notice, however, the company
discharged him. He claims $1,000
special damages for the loss of his
position. He further claims that Miss
Davenport caused it to be suspected
and believed by stars and managers,
and especially by Robert Mantell and
George Wadleigh, with whom he was
well acquainted, that he was ungentle-
manly and discOurteous. For this rea-
son he lost their esteem and patronage.
For this he claims special damages OF
$500. So he claims damages for S7,OOO,
instead of $1,000.
Mr.. Lotto also claims $4,000 more
damages. and mentions two instances
where the actress has maliciously i'll
jured him by the publication of this no
tice and otherWiSe-One Instance Where
he was discharged from the Booth
Modjeska company, and another tlme
when Margaret Mather gave him his
walking papers.
The arguments were all heard in the
case, and Mr. Sherer. attorney for the
plaintiffs, urged that in order to get to
a hearing of all the facts an amendment
was necessary. but Judge Young would
not favor the motion at all. and decided
thai the old case would stand as before
The proper way, he said, was for MI MI
Sherer TO bring new suit for the $4,000
additional damages in each case.

Pence opera house is to be open this

cut quite a figure as an amusement re-
sort. Edwin P. Hilton, the well-known
manager, has leased the house for three
years, and promises to give the lovers
of vaudeville what they have wantedin
Minneapolis for long time--specialty
and variety performances conducted in
a legitimate manner, and not as an ad-
junct to beer hall. On this point Mi.
Hilton has addressed letter OF intro
duction to the press which probably
states his case as we'll as it could be put.
"The Pence will open for the season of
'9O-'9l Monday, Aug. 25. 1t will be
open every evening during the week,
with regular matinees Wednesday,
Friday and Sunday. 1t will posi-
lively be strictly first class
and clean both in front of the house
and on the stage-a strong effort will be
made to please the ladies and children,

will receive the best of treatment, and
they NAV come alone and be as sure of
polite attention as though in their own

as neat, clean, sweet, inviting and at
tractive theater as the Northwest can

and at all times wearing dress suits and
acting like gentlemen this latter holds

Mr.. Hilton presents a list of attrac-
lions for the coming season, booked IN

certainly substantiates his intention OF

FIRST AMERICAN WHIPPINGS.

New York Times.
The first whipping in school on this
side of the Atlantic was done by the old
schoolmasters of New Amsterdam.
Dutch youngsters used to cut frequent
hookles, and it was customary for the
parents to turn their children over to
the ''schul-meister" for discipline. Flog-
cling in colonial days was not common
in the schools, though with other Eli
glish customs came that OF using the
Sblrch.'' The first person publicly
whipped in America was Quakeress
named Mary Clark, who was given
twenty stripes for preaching in Boston
in 1867. The next to suffer in this man
ner were Chris Holder and John Cope
land, both fogged on account of their
religious belief by the Puritans in BOs-
ton, and within the year twelve persons
were publicly whipped because they
were Quakers.
After the whipping of Copeland many
left Massachusetts and settled on Long
Island and in the Dutch colonies, but
they were treated there in the same
way. One Robert Hodshone was ac-
cused of holding meeting at Hemp
stead. He was brought over to New
Amsterdam, dragged through town at
the tail of cart, and then whipped be-
fore the town council. He was whipped
inside the fort and fined 600 guilderS,
and because he could not pay the fine
he was numerically flOgged the second
time.

PREPARING FOR WORK.

Ward Democracy.

Steps Taken to Organize the In1ru
Ward Democracy.
The Democrats of the Third ward met
last night in Seibers hall, corner OF
Plymouth and Washington avenues. and
inaugurated preliminary work for the
organization of an active Democratic
club in that ward. Matt Gross was
chosen chairman. and A. S. DoWdall
secretary. A general discussion of
Democratic principles and policy fol
lowed. Harmony was the rule<of
the evening. Several members from
both the jefferson and Cleveland
clubs were present, showing that the
two clubs are working with but one OBJ
ject in view--the success OF Democra-
cy. The matter of black balling appll-
cants for membership in the Jefferson
club came up. particularly the case of
Police Commissioner Guile. The sentl-
ment that the club had done wisely in
barring Guile seemed to be unanimous.
Secretary DoWdall scored Cutie I'M
mercifully as the henchman of the
Babb administration, and Matt Gallag-
her followed with an Endorsement OF
Dowdall's words, he adding that if the
police department desired to punish the
absconding Harvey it could easily bring
him back, but that such action was not
taken because some members of the
police Experimentation in authority
feared to do it because of therevelations
which Harvey might make. Q. L.
Erickson, w. Il. Mills and Julius Helm
riet were appointed committee to Sc
cure hall. George Ledgerwood, Dan
iel Waite and Matt Gallagher were
named as committee on constitution and
bylaws. The meeting then adjourned
until next Saturday when the organiza-
ton of the club will be completed at
the same place, SeibePs hall, Washing
ton and Plymouth avenues.
