Yet He Only Caught q Glimpse Of the
Thing-A Railway Incident
From the New York Tribune.
In an elevated railway train last week sat a
tired-looking workman and with him was an
active boy Of aboutten years. They were going
up town. At Chambers street q young man
with big basket got into the car and sat down
opposite the pair. He put the basket on the
seat beside him, and pulling a newspaper from
his pocket, held it up before his face and was
soon oblivious to his surroundings.
The boy was restless. He was constantly
fidgeting. The man had restrained him several
times, but chains and gag would hardly have
kept HIM perfectly quiet. His eve was in
stahtly fixed upon the basket. He made up his
mind that there was something good inside it.
Papa, papa!' he demanded.
Hush, boyi' said the tired man. as he
leaned his head against the window, closed his
eyes and tried to sleep.
Cant look into it. papa?"
Don't bother me, l say
Silence followed for little time and then:
Say, papa, only want to look. Can't I?'
"Look at anything you like, but don't wake
me again or I'll cuff you"
The boy slipped from his seat cautiously.
He kept an eye ON the owner OF the basket, but
the newspaper still held him and the coast was
clear. The basket had a strong wicker cover
which was fastened firmly with string. He
tried to unite the string for some time. but
failing in this he took a jack-knife out of his
pocket and stealthily cut the knot. Taking
another careful look at the owner of the basket
the mischie, Gus lad lifted the lid slowly and
putting his eye to the opening. peered in.
Then quick as flash the cover was knocked
up out Of his hand, and a brown streak shot
from inside it to the top of the boys
head. The lads first cry of surprise was fol-
lowed Immediately by shrieks of pain and
terror. Something live was percheG on the
boys head tearing his hair out in wisps and
scratching his face and ears till the blood ran.
The father grabbed his precious boy just as
the owner Of the animal grabbed the monkey
from the boys head and restored it to the
basket.
The lad had not had much of a look at the
monkey, but his curiosity seemed to be fully
satisfied.

CHICAGO. Feb. edwin Walker, the famous
attorney, was murderously assaulted last even
ing by two footpads. Tho assault took place
on Michigan avenue about Z o clock, when

pie. The blazing lights of the Standard
Club, al Michigan avenue and oath
street, shown ON what fortunately did not prove
a murder, yet this distinguished citizen was set
upon and by blow from a murderous billy"
was stretched upon the ground. To the courage
of Jacob X. Mineman. a member OF the
Standard Club and ncighbor OF Mr.. Walker, Is
due the fact that one Of the thugs was cap
tured.
Mr.. Walker had left his residence 10 attend a
worlds fair conference at the home OF Presi-
dent W. L. Baker. As MIR. Walker passed q
vacant lot just south OF the Standard Club
two men jumped out. One seized him by
the throat and the other smashed the
pinioned attorney with billy. The
weapon descended with fri6htfui force upon
the venerable lawyers forehead, and with a cry
he sank to the ground unconscious. Mr.. Wine
man heard the cry and started in pursuit Of
one of the footpads, who had taken to their
heels. He captured one Of them and held him
until policeman arrived and took charge Of
the prisoner. BY this time a great crowd had
congregated ana began shouting. Lets hang
the villain" Several men made a rush for the
prisoner but they were restrained by the officer
and the cooler heads IN the crowd
Mr.. Walkers wound is serious but not necss-
sarily dangerous.

Fishes Pumped From the Bay.

From the Galveston Daily News.
On Friday afternoon the powerful hydraulic
dredge of the wharf company was operating a
sand pump by which twelve-inch stream of
mud and water was forced from the bottom
through line of piping 800 feet in length and
deposited on the fats south of the levee.
The pressure exertel by these pumps was SO
great that hundreds of fish, from the small
mullet and croaker to the reddish two feet in
length, were sucked in, passed through the
tubing and deposited in the shallow water at
its outlet, where they were captured by dozens
OF boys equipped with dip nets and carried of
in triumph. Over 800 pounds were gathered in
BY this method.
