Is the talk of the day at present, by men,
women and children and by one of our
competitors and it is very thoughtful for
him Tor whoever thought it for him) to
start funds for the strikers. Brennan is
in favor of the workingmen and he hopes
hey win the day.
Brennan wants to know when the
bakers are to have their picnic, they have
had no day to themselves in years, and he
thinks If all proprietors shut their place
of business up for one afternoon it would
be big help to the workingmen that
work at such confusing work. AS Bren-
ran is the only baker in this city who
makes home made bread, his head baker

The Horse Rai|rad and the
Nottingham

Kelly says the workingmen of this city
will now have an opportunity to tell
which political party in our city govern
ment is the friend of the workingman.
The horse railroad in their desire to use
electricity as a motive power, are asking
the city to grant them concessions which
will add greatly to their already valuable
franchise. If these concessions are to be
granted to the railroad, then the people of
this city, and especially the workingmen,
should be entitled to concessions that
would be equally valuable TO themselves.
One important concession should be that
the workingman should secure a reduced
fare on week days to and from work. 1t
lies with the common council, which is
now republican, to secure the adoption of
this concession, and therefore the work
ingman may watch with interest the out
come.

At q grand ball arranged by the ON
GERS corps of the czar's body huzzars at

his dOl1nan. took deliberate aim, and
shot Prince Nicholas Susslovitch, a

The prince, who received the bullet in
the heart, fell dead instantly, dragging
his PARTNER with him to the floor The
assassin, amid wild excitement, stepped
over the body of his comrade, raised his
affianced's head by her hair, and then
blew his own brains out All this hap
pened in less than thirty seconds SO
quickly were the shots fired that inter
ference was impossible The cries Of
- the terrified woman first gave the alarm
to those in other parts of the hall. Med
icaI assistance was at once procured. but
was of no avail in the case Of Prince
Susslovitch and Ivan RattovitcA.
The young lady was with difficulty
dragged from the death grip of her
murdered partner. The murder has
created great excitement in Russian up
per circles where all parties concerned
were well known The czar ordered a
special report to be forwarded by tele-
gram. The murdered prince had been
warned by the lieutenant beforehand
not to dance with his intended. 1t was
a clear case Of jealousy, though there
was apparently no ground for any sus-
picion on the part of the murderer.
