BADLY USED UP.
Henrietta Johnson May Die as the Re-
suit OF Her Wounds.

There was a bloody row at Thunder
bolt yesterday afternoon about 6 O'Clock
between two negresses, which may result
in the death of one of them, and the trial
of the other for the crime of murder.
The row. it is said, started over man.
The two principals in the fight were Rosa
Polt and Henrietta johnson, both of
whom had been drinking before the diff
Guilty started. They were somewhat un-
der the influence of liquor and were walk
ing along the Electric railway towards
the town with a number of friends when
Henrietta made a remark about some
man, calling him "Willie, my dear"
which seemed to excite all the ire in
Rosa's soul. 1t seems that the man re
ferred to was common amour of both of
them, and that a large amount of jealousy
has existed between them for some time
on this account.
As soon as the words were spoken, Rosa
sprang at Henrietta with an open pocket
knife in her hand and began TO slash at
the unfortunate woman right and left
She left cash with every lunge, cutting
her first across the left temple, making
an ugly wound, then another down the left
jaw, and finally she struck at her breast
making perhaps the most serious wound
of all Several of the friends of Henrietta
who We're present at the time stopped
the attack as quickly as possible, and
beat the Polt woman over the head with
a club until she desisted from her attack
She was not so nearly as badly damaged
as her victim however, and she was ar
rested by Marshal Raderick and put in
the Warsaw Jail
The johnson woman was brought into
the city on one of the cars of the Electric
line and taken to her home on East
Broad street a physician was called in to
attend her and dress the wounds, and she
was found to be in a very dangerous condi-
tion. IT was thought she was bleeding
internally, as she could not speak Her
condition is thought TO be a very danger
Gus one, and it was stated that she could
not live. If she dies the Polt woman will
be held for murder.
THE MOTHER IN DISTRESS.
Mrs. Young is in deep distress over her
daughters condition. In her excitement
over the discovery OF the crime the night
before she was unable for awhile to act
with that promptness which might
have resulted in Walkers arrest
Although not member Of DR.
Jarrell's church, she went to him, and
he at once took the proper steps, as he
believed, to secure the negro's capture.
Failing to see Chief Green in person he
found Detective Bossell at the market
and reported the case to him. Dr. FARRELL
hau AIS reasons for not cOmmunica ting
the facts 10 the sergeant on duty at the
barracks. His first step upon hearing of
the assault was to secure Detective Nor
gan, but he was unable to find him and
he then endeavored to find
Chief Green. The chief, being on his
round Of duty, could not be reached. AS
soon as the police were notified of the
case a search was begun, which, it is be-
heved, will end in Walkers capture.

PooLER's TANNERY BURNED.
The Loss SO, 900 Covered by $500 In
anrancn.


The Pooler tannery was totally de-
stroyed by fire night before last.
The entire plant, consisting of twelve
2000-gallon watts containing about 500
sides of leather, with several hundred
sides Of finished leather ready for ship
ment, was valued at about $1,000.
Owing to the dullness Of the times, op-
CREATIONS were suspended for about six
weeks during August and September,
man being left in charge to look after the
building and attend to the watts. Oct l
operations were resumed and large or
der was being finished up, and would have
been ready for shipment the last of the
week The loss falls very heavily on the
proprietors, Messrs. John F. Tietlen, r.
S. Nell and G. B. Whatley, there being
only $500 insurance.
The Pooler tannery was one of the lead
ing enterprises of the town and furnished
employment to quite a numberof laboring
men, who will be left without work 1t
is not definitely settled whether it will
be rebuilt at present or not. The origin
Of the fire is unknown. An investigation
will be made to-day.

The company is mostly recruited abroad.

sons company have been retained. There
are fifty people in the organization
Spider and Fly" Notwithstanding it's
numerous adjuncts, has a story to tell n
deeply interesting one, which conveys a
moral as well as brilliantly adjoining a
tale. OF course the edifying plot is the
foundation made up of catchy music, HUI
morous topical songs, magnificent bal
let's, marches, grotesque comedy panto-
mime and speciality.
Since last season the play has been en-
tirely rewritten. Scarcely anything re-
mains of the first text but the title. But
in the new shape it is said TO contain more
interest, humor and proba bilities for the
display of specialties, ballots, sumptuous
costumes and superb scenery.

TOOK POISON AND DIED.
Miss Ellen Ramsey SuCCumbS to an
Overdose Of Laudanum.

Dependency the Result of Ill Health
the Cause Which Prompted the Fatal
Step-The Drug Taken at Midday
and It's Effect Not Discovered I'm
til Too Late to Save the Unfortunate
Woman's Life.
Miss Ellen Ramsey, a daughter of
Charles Ramsey, died at her fathers
home at Lincoln street and Bay street
lane about midnight from the effects of
an overdose of laudanum. The drug is
supposed to have been taken with sui =
cidal intent.
Miss Ramsey was about 40 years old
She has been in delicate health for some
time, and her action is supposed to have
been prompted by dependency. The
family had no idea of Miss Ramsey's in
tention, and did not discover her true
condition until too late for medical aid to
be of any avail.
The deceased left the house about noon
yesterday and purchased an ounce phial
of laudanum at one of the neighboring
drug stores on Broughton street.
The phial was afterwards found empty,
and she is supposed to have taken its
full contents shortly after her return to
the house. She was in her room lying
down all the afternoon, but nothing was
thought of this. About supper time a
member of the family attempted to
arouse her, and found her in stupor
Her condition was not realized at first,
but about 8 O'Clock DR. Stone was called.
DR. Stone found every symptom of
laudanum poisoning He used every
means of restoration at his command, but
the poison had had several hours in
which to do it's work and it was too late
to save her. He gave up the case as hope
less after two hours of hard work.
The deceased was the oldest daughter
of Charles Ramsey and was well known
in the neigh borhood in which she lived.
