A South Side Row.

Int shanty boat on the river of
Twenty-ninth street, last Saturday,
there was a dsagreeable row. Some
time ago a boat load, probably fifteen In
number, OF Dsgos arrived in their boat,
presumably in quest OF work. 1t seems
some of the Italians Of this city grew
Jealous Of them, aud FIVE OF them went
TO the boat at the time mentioned. A
general fight ensued, which was Grst
begun on the river banks. Knives were
used at the beginning Of the scrap, and
several fellows were slashed. Later
four pistol shots were fired, but
as far as known no one was hit. After
shooting, cutting and batterlng each
other for about fifteen minutes. the
Wheeling fellows retired and came up
town, several bleeding profuseIy. One
OF the boats crew was so badly done up
that his comrades had to carry him TO
the boat. No English figured In the
fight, though several citizens seen the
encounter from the bank. There was
talk OF arrestng the boats crew, but
they showed out into the Ohio before
this was done.

A STRONG SERMON
PREACHED AT TIE FOURTH SrEET Il. &
CHURCH, LAST NIGHT,
By Rev. A. G. Robb, Late of the Kansas Confer
eaea, But Now Located in
Wheeling.

Rev. A. G. Robb, formerly OF the
Kansas Conference, preached last night
at the Fourth Street NJ. E. Church one
of the best sermons heard from city
pulpit for number of Sundays. Rev.
Robb has done pastoral work Tor sew
eral years in Kansas and Kansas City.
He was for some time presiding elder OF
the Fort Scott district Of that State,
and was compelled by breaking down
physically to temporarily discontinue
preaching. He expects TO re-enter the
ministry this fall in the West virginia
Conference, and will undoubtedly be an
able addition TO that body.
The theme of Rev. Robb's discourse last
evening was"lndividual Responsibility
We give summary OF his remarks.
The text was taken from Matthew s: IL
and II. The strong faith Of the heather
was mentioned who because OF his con-
dition was restrained, yet they could
tell others to ''come;" and how much
more could the children, the favored OF
God, bid the disease Of sin depart. We
are especially responsible because we
live in q favored land. The constitu-
tion OF our country recognizes the 90
minion Of God. Many complain OF the
government because Of the run
traffic and other ills which ex-
ist in our land. While / believe
in critcising our government wherein
* may protect that which should be
condemned, yet it is not proper for any
man Nmake it the scapegoat OF his
sins. No man is compelled by the gov
eminent to bea drunkard or murder
err. he know the consequence, and Is
therefore individually responsible. Men
who live in this Nineteenth century and
who are walking in the ways OF sin and
death should stop their murmurings
against the church. As individuals we
are responsible TO God tonight. A
man who is unsaved tonight
ought not to lay 1t at the doors OF
the church. The churches are working
for the salvation of all living souls.
The church bells call US to the service
of God. The Sunday schools teach US
OF God and His will. The prayers Of
the church that went up to God are
proclamations and declarations that
those who utter them are children Of
God, Education and the schools OF our
country all serve TO broaden our fields
of usefulness, and teach US of the re-
sponsibilitY OF man to man, and man to
God. After presenting two vivid pictures
illustrative OF the degree of our re-
sponsibility, Rev. Robb closed with a
forclble and effective peroration. He
prayed that every person who claimed
to be child OF God would awaken to
their responsibility for the salvation of
the trust committed TO their care.
Rev. DR.. Riker, pastor of the church,
is away on vacation, but will be back
in time to fill the pulpit next Sunday
morning and evening.

ONLY A DOG.
The End of tho Ohapline Hill "Ceusa-
tIon."

The End of tho Ohapiine Hill "Censa-
tIou."
What was supposed to be a "foul
murder" by police officer and others
on the South Side, Saturday, turned
out to be nothing but natural death
and OF dog at that. The party who
made the discovery Saturday was ex-
cited by the sight Of woman's dress
appearing from under fagstone over
the mouth OF the Terminal tunnel, and
In pulling the dress out he unrolled
lot OF small bones with brown hair at
tached. In his ma2nifed state OF mind
he concluded from the dress and the
hair that what he saw was the bones OF
a woman's skull. This idea was COM
municated 10 Officer Daniel 0'Brien, who
made some effort to see into the matter.
The officers sense Of smell was too sem
sitive, however, for him to investigate
the matter. lie got within smelling dis
lance and then turned about, coinciding
in the belief that the bones aud hair
were those OF human.
The proper history OF the discovery
was obtained early yesterday morning
by officer Richard Donivon and others.
They unrolled the dress and at a glance
saw that the bones were nothing more
than poor innocent puppy, and the
hair belonging to the species Of a water
spaniel. This was coroborated
by the members Of the Central
Garden Club, who appeared on
the scene when the investigation was
going on. According to the story a pet
dog which strayed around the Club
house had been sick for some time last
spring, and during its illness had made
It's resting place on an old dress which
was at the place. Poor doggy had died
aud was tenderly wrapped up and car
ried up the bill and deposited under
meath the aforesaid mentioned stone.
Since then doggy has been resting
peacefully until resurreeted Saturday as
a member OF another family.
