HATTIE WAS STRONG,
AND SHE GAVETHREE OFFICERS
A HARD FIGHT.
| LANDED HER IN THE PATROL
After Attracting an Immense
Crowd by Her Screams and In
decent Language.

Hattie Wilson, a colored cook at
Mrs. Nortons boarding house, $50
Minnesota street, was arrested at
that number yesterday afternoon on
charges of drunkenness and disor-
derby conduct. The Wilson woman
went out early in the afternoon ''for
a good time" as she told Mrs. Nor
ton. She had it, and so did the po-
lice. Hattie soon became hilarious,
and, meeting Officer Davis, abused
him roundly. He warned her to re-
turn to the house or he would arrest
her She complied unwillingly, and
when the officer passed the house
she opened the window and, shak-
ing her fist at him, again vilified
and abused him. Meeting Lieut..
Babe, Davis was ordered to call the
patrol and arrest the woman. The
latter was accomplished only by the
greatest effort, and required the
united exertions of Officers Davis
and Casserly and Lieut.. Babe The
woman resisted with unnatural
strength, biting, striking and fight
ing like an athlete. So fierce was her
resistance that it finally became
necessary to throw her. To get the
woman into the patrol, the officers
were obliged to drag her by main
force. Her screams and indecent
language attracted big crowd. En-
route TO the station the woman still
resisted, momentarily attempting to
jump from the patrol She was fol-
lowed to the station by horde of
small boys, who were highly enter
tanned. The officers We're relieved
when the woman was jailed.

FIRES APiST0L POINT BLANK
At the Girl, but the Leaden
Missile Flew Wide OF the
Mark.

Henry Howard, a negro Of thirty
eight, was arrested late last night by
Off1cers Kluzak and DeloSSa, as he
was leaving 228 Eagle street, where he
made desperate, but unsuccessful
attempt to shoot Lavatta Langtry, a
domestic. The prisoner was hurried
to the central station, where he was
booked on a charge of assault with in
tent to do bodily harm. That a charge
OF murder does not appear against
Towards name is due solely to the
erratic craftsmanship of the offender.
The negro'S attack upon the young
girl was as murderouS it is said as it
was unprovoked. Howard rang the
bell at 22S Eagle street about 1873
O'Clock. Lavatta LangtTy answered
the bell. AS she opened the door she
was confronted by Howard, the pair
being less than two feet apart. -Ae
visitor wanted to enter but Lavatta
refused him admittance.
Howard his intended victim alleges,
was intoxicated, and did not demur
orally, but instantly whipped out a
revolver and fired directly at the
young negress. His
AIM WAS UNSTEADY
and the bullet was embedded in the
door. The suddenness of the attack
dazed the girl, who, however, was cool
enough to shut the door. Howard
made no further attempts to modest
the girl, and intent on fight, ran has
,tily from the premises. He was cap
tured with the revolver still in his
hand The gun, cheap affair of 80
calibre, contained four bullets and
one empty shell. Howard took his ar
rest coolly, but was very reticent-
The police do not know him, and the
prisoner declined to divulge anything
concerning himself He gave his oc-
cupation as that of a laborer.
When GLOBE reporter called at
the house short time after the at
tempted shooting, he found Lavatta
as cheerful as cricket. She was not
even nervous, but as composed as II

The shooter was a stranger to La
vatta Langtry, although she admits
that she has seen Howard on the
street.

His business evidently takes him

FIRE IN The MAIL.
A Mail Wagon in the Post
Office Alley Takes
Fire
In SOME MYSTERIOUS WAY
And q Sack Full of Letters
and Documents Is Par
TALLY Destroyed.
IN SOME MYSTERIOUS WAY
FURTHER LOSS IS AVERTED
By the Prompt Action Of Pat
Feely, a Speeta-
tor.

In some unaccountable manner a
mail wagon, standing in the postof-
fee alley yesterday afternoon about
4 o'clock, took fire, and had it not
been for the prompt action of Pat
Feely, a travelling man for Lanpher.
Finch & Skinner, the contents of the
wagon would have been totally de-
stroyed. AS it was, one sack of
mail was partially burned. and in
his work of rescuing the letters, Mr..
Feely was painfully burned about
the hands and face. 1t was impOsSi-
BILE to learn last night the value or
number of the letters destroyed, and
for that matter it will probably
never be known. The mail contract
aor, Mr.. King, whose contract for
handling the mails from the depot
began with the first day of the pres
ent month, must shoulder the re-
possibility and bear whatever loss
results,
Thus far no one has been able to
furnish a reasonable explanation of
the fire. The wagon drove up to the
postoffice from the depot at 3:45
and backed up to the side door pre-
paratory to being unlOaded For
some reason the driver and his COM
panion left the wagon as soon as it
stopped and went into the postoffice.
MI Feely was sitting in the office
of the Astoria hotel. directly oppo-
site the alley, and as the drivers
Fno1xy oh
served flame and smoke issuing from
the wagon.
He ran across the street and yelled
warning into the postoffice door, as
the doors of the wagon were secured
by a paddock. No one responded at
once, and as the smoke was incrcas-
ing in volume, Feely resolved to vto-
late the regulations and in a minute
more had burst the lock and opened
the doors. The flames struck him in
the face and singed his eyebrows, but
he pluclkily jumped into the wagon,
seized the burning sack and hurled it
to the ground, where it was quickly
extinguished by King and his pals,
who by this time had arrived.
1t was found that the great portion
of the contents of the sack, which was
well filed. had been destroyed. For
tunately the fire was ccnfined to that
one sack, all others being found in
good condition. The mail was from
the East, having arrived during the
early afternoon. 1t was impossible to
ascertain it's character or value, as it
was so badly burned. 1t is probable,
however, that some of the business
concerns will be able to throw some
light on the question today
Feely's hands were not seriously
burned, but he was occasioned con-
siderable pain.

ILLINOIS DETECTION.

A large part of each party is getting
very near to free silver, while the re-
naming and very considerable fac
tiecns of both are unalterably opposed
to it. The emotional politicians of the
Democratic party in Illinois think they
are playing brilliant game in prepar-
ing for a silver convention. If they
overreach themselves by these tao
tics it will not be the first time they
have performed that embarrassing
feat.-Chicago Record.
1t is to be hoped that Mr.. Hinrich-
sen is correct in his belief that the ma
tional Democracy will declare itself in
favor of free coinage at 10 to 1, and
in favor of not waiting for concurrent
action by other nations. The best
thing for the country would be 10 have
the two important parties take oppo-
site sides on this question during the
next campaign. In no other way can
the free coinage men be made to real
ize so fully the hopelessness Of their
cause. 1t is impossible that the Re-
pubiicans will adopt a platform adj
vocating free coinage undertaken bv
this country alone The issue can be
Sharply made, therefore, only by the
adoptloh or such platform by the
Observation-Disclosures Sentinel
But there is not much risk in the
ccnvocation. The Democracy of UIi-
nols Is now at such a very low ebb
that almost any change would be het-
ter than standing still If, however,
the callers of this convention srn-
pose that they can steal avav Pc
pubiicans by making special profee-
