They Were IIoaXed.

A telephone message, conveying the
news that Select Councilman Charles
w. Westpfahl, Of Pittston avenue, had
been stabbed in the side and serious
wound inflicted, was received at the
offices of the morning newspapers of
the city yesterday morning about /
o'clock. The author of the message
was Will F, Clifford. He could not be
seen yesterday so that he might give
an account Of himself for performing
such desplcable trick There was not
a vestige of truth in the story nor any
excuse for 1t. Select Councilman West
pfahl was seen yesterday by Tribune
reporter and he was in his usual good
health
He did not see Clifford on the night
in question and was at loss to ac-
count for the motive that actuated him
in circulating the story. AS a practical
joker Mr.. Clifford deserves to rank with
the thick individual who sat on a limb
and sawed himself down. His ideas of
humor need revising.
