Personals and News Notes.

Ingratitude more strong than
traitors arms WAS fully demonstrated
by the seventeen -year-old son Of John
Kane, of Minoola, few evenings ago.
The young mans name is Michael, and
he is anything but dutiful son. Late
Saturday night with the assistance of
two companions, he tied his father
from head to foot with a clothesline,
They then carried HIM to a coal shed
at the back Of the house and left him
to amuse himself with his thoughts.
Young Kane has some pretensions to
pugilistic art. A year or so ago he
fought II five round battle with
Bill Vaughn of the Twentieth ward
Vaughn blackened the optics of his an
tagonist and otherwise left beauty
spots on his face, besides putting him
to sleep from which he awoke not for
several hours. Ga Saturday evening
he endeavored to convince his father
that no had outgrown his usefulness.
BY way of argument he proceeded to
do some scientific boxing. His second
attempt left him IN II soundly thrashed
plight, aud for revenge he perpetrated
the afore mentioned indignity upon hi
prOgenitor.

In the proper season every species of
