JUMPED ON HIS FACE,
Brutal Treatment of W. j. Gerry by Simon
Rudnick and Benjamin Snyder.

In the police court Yesterday morning
the case of assault. Saturday night,
in Simon Rudnick's saloon, came up.
William .J.Gerry testified that in COM
pany with John Mitchy. he entered
the saloon about eleven O'Clock. He
had attended the theatre during the
evening, had taken one drink of liquor
before and afterward; Mitchy had
drunk beer. They had got sandwiches
in the saloon. for which they paid.
There was monograph there and they
were asked to hear tune. They did
not wish to, but the man pressed tube
upon them. They heard the music begin,
then threw down the tubes and said
they wished to hear no more. Gerry
started to go out. but Rudniek went to
the door, locked it and demanded 20
cents for listening to the music. Gerry
tried to pull him aside. Then Snyder
a big fellow, Rundick's assistant, came
up and also two others, There was some
sparring between them, and Gerry's
elbow broke the glass in the door. Then
he broke out the rest and tried to crawl
through to escape his assailants. With
one leg through his other leg was held
by Rudnick, and he fell on the sidewalk
with his face up. Meanwhile Snyder
ran out through another door, and
jumped on his upturned.face. and struck
him with his fists until two men came
across the street and interfered, and
helped Gerry to doctor, who put leeches
on his bruised face and set his broken
nose.
Such was Gerry's testimony. His face
would seem to prove that something
besides fists had struck him.. His eyes
were very bloodshot, his cheeks and
brows swollen and black and blue, and
on his forehead were scratches that
looked very much Like heel marks.
Mitchy testified substantially the same.
Rudnick testified that both Gerry..and
Mitchy were drunk. that they did not
pay for the sandwiches, that Gerry
kicked Synder first, that the door was
not locked, that he did hold Gerry by
the foot, while Snyder ran for the
police and that Snyder did no touch
Gerry outside the door
Snyder, young German Jew, of large
proportions, testified that Gerry's bruises
were due to the blow he struck him in
side the door, and TO the fact that he
fell with his face on the sidewalk. He
denied striking him outside.
Mrs. Rudnick testified the same as the
others so did Albert Newmart, Ger
man who had charge of the photograph.
Judge Gould decided that it was a case
of assault and battery, and fined Rodnic
and Snyder $50 each and one half costs.
They appealed, and furnished 5000 bonds.
George Libby appeared for them.

Boston and Maine.

In comparing the railroad statistics of
Maine, the Boston News Bureau finds
that there has been marvellous expan-
sion of traffic and earnings since 1860
in the face of an increase of population
of only about per cent. This result
sdoubtless due to the development and
utilization of water power by manutac-
turers, and to the construction of addi-
tional lines of railroad /, thereby opening
to commerce the agricultural and tim
Der lands of the State, and rendering
more accessible the mountain and sea-
shore resorts OF Maine.
Another striking feature is the heavy
increase in passenger and tons of freight
carried and in gross receipts. compared
with the very much less increase in
train mileage.
In 1860 no Maine railroad issued tickets
or ran cars beyond its own line, the rate
of speed was about q miles per hour,
and there was then little or no summer
resort travel,

CHAIRMAN DONOVAN:
Tt Is Reported that He Has Resigned His
Position as Head of the Democratic State
b Committee.

1t is reported that Hon. John B. Dono-
van has sent to Secretary Fred Emery
Bean of Gardiner letter rendering his
resignation as chairman of the Democrat
ic state committee. This letter will
probably be presented to the committee
at the meeting which will soon be held
to fix the date of the state convention
and determine other matters of import
ance.
Mr.. Donovan maintains much reticence
in regard to the report but does not deny
it, He evidently considers his position
as United States marshal as incompati-
BILE. under the ordinary usages. with a
position at the head of the party organi-
cation.
Mr.. Donovan's retirement will break
the Plum Trust, which has attained great
fame as political power.
Mr.. Donovan has been at the head of
the committee for six or eight years, and
probably has a stronger grip on the party
than any one who will be chosen to sue
coed him.
The indications are that the next chair
man will not be selected until the state
convention has chosen a new committee,
as there is a strong feeling against having
the present committee conduct the COM
ing campaign.

Yesterdays papers mentioned the
death IN Minneapolis, April 18th, of Mrs.
E. S. Loring. nee Crossman, formerly of
this city. Her bereaved husband, Mr..
Charles N. Loring. one of the most prom
inent citizens of Minneapolis. was for
merly of this city. AS boy and young
man here he was an intimate friend land
is Silly of Capt. Pickett of the barge
office. Just before he had made up his
mind to seek his fortune in the West,
over 80 years ago, he went to Capt. Flick
etts father, Mr.. Isaac Pickett, and asked
to borrow 800.
He got the money, went West and Mr..
Pickett heard nothing of him for five
years. Then he got a letter and 500 and
the interest up to date. He was aston
ished and delighted. He Immediately
bought his wife new set of furs and
then he went into neighbor' S. handed out
$25 to the wife and mother who was an
intimate friend, and told her to go and
buy set of furs.

BRIEF JOTTiNGs.

Thatcher Post will probably attend
services on the evening of Memorial
Sunday at the Free street church.
The old car shop in the Maine Central
yard near the freight engine house has
been torn down, as all of the work is
now done at the s-Thompson's Point
shops. The land formerly occupied
by the old shop is to be graded up and
laid out in tracks. 1t will give consid-
cradle more track space where it is
much needed.

The assemhlage rose as Judge haskell
entered escorting Judge Strout. In his
presentation speech to the members OF
the bar the former said: 1t gives me
pleasure to welcome your late president
to be an associate Justice of the Su-
preme Judicial court. According to
time-honored custom his Official author
ity will be proclaimed by this public
reading of his commission.
The commission from Gov. Cleaves
was then read by Clerk of Courts Stone.
Judge Symonds arose to welcome
Judge Strout for his fellow members
of the bar. He said in substance: 1t
seems that it cannot be out of place for
some one to say that the Bar of Cum
berland County extends it's kindliset and
heartiest greeting to His Honor, Judge
Strout Nowhere on the circuit will he
be stranger, nowhere will a welcome
be wanting. His distinguished career
as lawyer and wide reputation justly
entltle him everywhere to the respect OF
the bar, and here at home, in connection
with our congratulations for him. there
is but single regret.
AS we greet his Honor, Judge Strout,
we must say goodby to him at the bar.
What other opponent in the future shall
we meet who will know so well as he
how to dull the sharp edge of contro-
versy with unvarying courtesy? None.
We need not expect it, and do not hope
for it.
In the serious duties of the bench
these same qualities will be exercised
not in the onesided interests of clients,
but apart from contention and for the
good of all. This latter consideration
ought to silence any feeling of regret.
May long life be his, and may his pres
ent opportunities for public service lin
ger far into the future"
Judge Strout thanked the members of
the bar for their kind reception. During
the practice of their noble profession
nothing has ever occurred to mar this
brotherly relation. He had been a
friend to one sand all and the feeling
had been reciprocal. His new duties
would change his relations to the bar,
but would not lessen his affection or
interest in their labor as honorable prac-
titioners. He wished one and all the
highest success and invited them TO at
tend him to the Judges cham Der. The
court adjourned, and the members of
the bar repaired to the judges chamber,
there to shake hands with Judge Strout.

BEWARE OF THE BEARS.
How Valuable Pet Dog Escaped From
bruins Claws.

Yesterday morning, prominent gen.
tleman of this city visited behring's Oaks,
accompanied by his favorite Skye. 1t
was beautiful morning and Young
America with his many names was also
out in this favorite playground to enjoy
the bright spring sunshine and see the
monkeys and bears. A big placard warns
dogs against entering the grounds but
the gentleman did not notice it and
Beauty gazed at it with evident con-
tempt
After visiting the other attractions of
the Oaks, master and dog drew up to
the bear pen, where already many OF
Bruins admirers were watching his
clumsy movements. together with those
of his companions, and occasionally feed
ing them with toothsome gingerbread.
There is a slope of ground on which the
cage, and the pen about it, stands, and
hole has developed under the side of the
pen that stands on this slope. To the
horror OF Beauty's owner, he saw that
the dog had found the hole and slipped
inside the pen. There the canine was
disporting himself, Ignorant that one
of the bears-all of whom were at the
further end of the cage-had spied the
intruder and was numbering towards him
with that peculiar gait characteristic of
bears. The gentleman whistled to his
dog but the animal, with that perversity
sometimes noticeable in pet dogs, refused
to pay attention to his master. Nearer
and nearer came Bruin, unobserved by
Beauty. The crowd of nurses and chill
dren gaped in open-mouthed horror, ex-
pecting every moment to see the dog
seized in the bears massive paws.
Beauty's master didn't dare to speak
harshly, for fear he would take fright
and fall back into the bears clutches.
The dog didn't see the bear though the
bear did the dog. All at once, just as
the bear thrust his paw out, sure that he
had secured his prey, Beauty slipped out
of the pen by the way he came in, the
claws of the bear catching in his hair and
pulling back into the cage a good claw
full, causing the dog to give good keen
yelp. Then the crowd drew q long
breath.

own affair if they contract a pernicious
habit, knowing full well its evil results.
But their responsibility is, far greater
than that which, rests upon ordinary
mortals. If a physician drinks Liquor,
smokes cigarettes, or participates in any
other form of dissipation, the unthinking
public is apt to- conclude that the habit
is harmless, and may therefore be in
dulged with inp,lnity. 1t is with doc
tor much as il is. with minister. The
latter may participate in enjoyments
that, so far as, he is concerned, are per-
fectly harmless, but which, if participant
ed in by some Others not so we'll balanced
would be apt to lead to excuses not on
ly harmful but demoralizing. 1t is this
that leads the clergy generally y-and very
properly, too-to abstain from card
playing, theatre going, and many of the
popular sports of the day.
It is questionable if the prohibition of
the sale of adulterated cigarettes in Chi.
cago will work an immediate and sub
stantial reform. It may lead manufac-
turers, however, to use fewer adulter-
ants. and thus reduce the evils caused
by their use. 1t may, also, prevent 9TH
ers from falling into the habit who 9TH
erwise might fall easy victims. That the
law will be evaded does not admit of
question: but for the little good it will
accomplish it will he heartily welcomed
If the evil cannot be cured it should be
mitigated to as large degree as posi-
ble, and the new ordinance is step in
the right direction. Public sentime Mt
could contribute largely towards the
success of the reform, and all business
men should refuse to employ cigarette
smokers or to transact any business with
them.-St. Paul Globe.
