A TERRIBLE ENCOUNTER WITH AN INDIGNAN
HUSBAND.

TERRIBLE ENCOUNTER WITH AN INDIG NANT
HUSBAND.
DANvILLR, August ia murderous aft
ray took place in Danville last night under
circumstances which show that t was one
Of the most shocking that ever occurred in
to pieces by an enraeed husband in resent
ing an indignity to his wife. For time
the widest excitement prevailed, but as
the facts connected with the case develop
ed themselves, public opinion has gone in
sympathy with John Mininies the perpe-
TRAITOR of the crime. Mininies is now
in Jail awaiting the result of the
hearing, which is to decide whether he can
be admitted to bail or not to await action
of court.
The affair took place in sparsely popu-
lated portion of the city and very little Of
the facts are known. Frank Schursski
and Patrick Monahan, the victims, were
about town until a late hour. They had
started for their homes. which lie in the
same direction as Mininies lived. Upon
nearing the residence of the latter they
stopped and made some noise which at
tracted the attention of Mininies, who sp-
peared in the door followed by his wife,
DESPERATE FIGHT.
One of the men told her TO go in and
mind her own business, as their inter Tiew
was intended for her husband. This she
refused to do, and then one Of the men
took the lamp which her husband held
and flung it at her. A fierce struggle en-,
sued. Mininies seized an ak, which he
swung right ana left with terrible effect.
Monahan was struck In the forehead
which was split across the temple. His
companion, Schuraski, received blow in
the back Of the head which tore it open.
Besides these wounds their breasts and
shoulders were horribly gashed, and physi
clans have no hope of their recovery. Mrs
Mininles, when rescuers arrived was fount
unconscious, with her body htf out Of
window, where she had fallen from blow
received in the melee. Her husband va
but slightly injured and expresses him sci
as satisfied with his work. He feels conf
dent Of being exonerated at the hearing

CITY ATHLETIC GROUNDS.
A New Enterprise Undertaken at the
Meeting OF the Arlington Wheelmen.

At a meeting Of the Arlington wheelmen last
night it was decided to undertake a new enter
prise, in which the cooperation Of the business
men Of this city and the public in general, as
well as that of the cycling associations and
athletic clubs, will be invited 1t is proposed to
lease a section of ground on the line of several
car lines on which to arrange track, tennis
courts, foot ball and lacrosse grounds bowling
alley, base ball field and all matters pertaining
to athletic sports. bicycle race track is
especially desired, as it is generally thought
that the League of American Wheelmen will
make Washington its next meeting place if it
can be supplied with a suitable race track, this
being the only reason why the league has not
been asked here. The Arlingtons are very en-
thusiastic about their scheme and seven of it's
members Cthe membership now being twenty
five) have already subscribed over Sl25 for
this end. with the rest of the members vet
to respond. and it is thought this club will sub
scribe at least $500. The club has appointed
several committees to attend to the matter, and
members will bo authorized to ask subscrip-
tions. The Arlingtons believe their enterprise
will appeal to the public spirit and generosity
of the public.

Col. Ernst the commissioner of public build
ings and grounds, has established an interest
ing precedent TIT came near interfering with
the democratic Jubilee Of powder burning
south OF the White House last night Early in
the day deputation of local democrats, OF
whom Mr.W.LWeller was spokesman, waited on
COL Ernst for permission TO fire ifty-two guns
In the White Lot to celebrate the democratic
victory. The colonel refused on the ground
that the act would be improper and that the
guns would injurs the turf of the reservation.
There was good deal Of argument, but
THE COLONEL WAS FIRM.
No record could be found Of the permit given
BY Col Wilson to Geo. E. Lemon to FIRE
a salute on the lot in honor Of Pres
ident Harrison's election. After the depu-
tatioD had left this record was discov-
cred, but the firing was begun neverthe-
less. The guns were planted by permit Of
the chief Of police on the street near the prop
agating ponds. but soon after the firing began
squad Of police arrived with orders to re-
move the guns to the foot of 18th street Then
the firing went on, but the committee in charge
was very indignant.
COL. ERNST DEFENDS HIS ACTION
on the ground that the Presidents premises
should be protected from disturbances and
that there was no time like the present for es-
tablishing precedent.
He said to STAR reporter this morning that
he did not believe there was one democrat in
ten who would not approve his course as soon
as the facts were digested. He acted entirely
upon his own responsibility and judgment and
had no communication with the White House
In regard to the matter.
The salute was fired by direction of the CEN
trail democratic committee by battery A of the
District National Guard. A permit was obtained
from the District authorities, subject to Col.
Ernsts approval, to fire the guns on the White
Lot. The members Of the committee criticise
Col Ernsts action as discrimination against
them because OF politics.

LlG HT-WEIGHT BREAD.
All the Cases in the Police Court To-
day Were Dismissed.

If Judge Miller does not know how to bake
bread it is not because he did not receive the
proper instruction when several alleged light
weight bread cases were tried in the Police
Court this morning. Both the law and the
manner of baking were fully discussed. The
law requires each loaf of bread to contain six
teen ounces, and Judge Miller thinks that
the consumer is entitled to that much
bread. At the same time the law says
that due allowance must be made
for shrinkage. The bakers explained how they
weighed out the dough in eighteen-ounce
patches and how tho different shaped bread
comes out of the oven at different weights, the
bread with crust all around the loaf weighing
less than those baked in sheets.
The policemen who weighed the bread used
scales in stores and. later on. the bread was
weighed by The sealer of weights and measures.
The weight did not correspond at all, showing
that the scales used by the officers were incor-
rect.
Judge Miller said that these cases were
always made in the nature Of a raid, and he
thought the proper way was to have the sealer
Of weights and measures weigh the bread

ing ten cases. were w. ID. Russell. Charles
Schaeffer, John L. Vogt. Charles Schneider

edge Of a girl under sixteen years of age was
sentenced to one year and one day in the Al
bany penitentiary. The court said that he was
inclined under all the circumstances to be
lenient, but the statute made the offense pun
ishable by hard labor and there was no peni-
tertiary or Jail for hard labor here. He there
fore sentenced him TO the Albany panitentiary
Edward Parker. convicted on Thursday of
assault and battery with intent to kill Andrew
Jackson, was sentenced to the Albany peni-
Tertiary for four years Parker said he was

prison three months and that he had reformed
The court remarked on the extraordinary num-
Der of such cases here and said something
should be done to check it. There was in this
case scarcely any palliation, the crime having
been committed after the combatants had bee IL
once separated He advised the prisoner, after
leaving the penitentlary, to avoid bad COM
pany, drinking and late hours: but he could not
treat the case lightly, and he would be derelict
