MIR. JONES' NERVE.
lie Gave u Midnight Robbcr II Smash on
the Jaw.

An attempt to rob Mr.. Jones, pro-
prietor of Jones' hotel on Jackson street,
at an early hour yesterday morning was
prevented by the prompt action of that
gentleman James Mulherin, the would
be robber, was arrested
Shortly after / o'clock while Mr..
Jones was taking the days receipts
from the cash register, Mulherin, who Is
81 years of age and a laborer. entered
and exclaimed, Hand that stuff over,
See?"
AS Mr.. Jones turned around the Wis
itor thrust his hand in his hip pocket,
apparently to pun forth II revolver. 1t
was then that Mr.. Jones displayed his
nerve and good judgment.
"All right, you can have It," he said,
"but you don't want the pennies and
small change, do you?"
Nav, | don't. But you'd better
gime the big stuff quick"
Just wait "a minute; l have bag
here and will put the money in that
50 you can carry 1t better" said the
proprietor, who walked to the end of
the bar As he passed Mulherin he gave
that midnight prowler smash on the
point OF the jaw, and as he was falling
jabbed him one under the ear-just to
make sure of him. He then picked
him up and tossed him out on the side
walk and called policeman.
Before Alderman Fitzsimmons it was
shown that Mulherin's offence was les
sened because he was somewhat under
the "infloonce" at the time of the act.
He paid q fine of S..

the life of the deceased. That life Is
long, the speaker said, that answers
life's great ends. Captain Kellow was
a man who gave his services to his
country In the time of her peril; re-
turned from the battlefield and Joined
the home guard, and In his civil life
served his municipality with a brilliant
record. DR.. Pearce pronounced the
final benediction and then Miss Drae-
ger sang "One Sweetly Solemn
Thought" by Thomas. Professor Car
ter played Beethoven's funeral dirge
while the people were filing out of the
church past the remains exposed to
view. When the members of the regi-
ment and post were marching past the
casket the organ pealed forth a solemn
and stirring military march.
The funeral proceeded to Forest Hill
cemetery and the remains were lowered
In the grave. Rev. M. d. Fuller offered
prayer and the burial service of Griffin
post was read by Commander Mott.
Rev. Mr. Fuller concluded with II most
touching blessing. The firing squad
of Company B fired three salutes,
Bugler Richards sounded taps and the
last tribute of mortal respect to the de-
parted hero-citi2en were at an end.

IMPORTANT IMPROVEMENT.

Yesterday.

1t Was Noted by street Railway Patrons
Yesterday.
For the first time in the history of
electric street railroading in this city
patrons of the Traction company en-
route for Forest Hill cemetry yesterday
were not forced to endure the innumer-
able delays to which they have been
hitherto subjected on such occasions.
The fact was commented on by many
who attended the funeral of the late
Captain Kellow, yesterday.
At former funerals, owing to lack
of power the cars would be obliged
to stop at very short intervals and the
services at the grave would be complet-
ed before the cars carrying friends had
arrived at the cemetery. Owing to i'm
provements at the power house and in
the system of feeding introduced under
the present management, these de-
lays have been obviated, and persons
who ride in the cars will hereafter be
as they were yesterday, the first to ar
rive at the cemetery.

SOUSA'S GREAT BAND.
1t VIII Give q Concert ut Academy of
Music Tuesday Evening.

Sousa will this year again break the
record in the length of his term Of
concert giving. He began the current
years season on Feb. 10, and his en-
gagements already undertaken bring
him up to Dec. l6, or over forty-onc
weeks of continuous daily concerts. This
embraces a long concert tour of three
months. an engagement of nine weeks
at Manhattan Beach, one of seven
weeks at the st. Louis exposition, and
another concert tour beginning at he
conclusion of his st. Louis engagement
and ending in New York Dec l6.
No band or orchestra embracing so
many people was ever before ten
dered engagements for so protracted
a season, and 1t is wonder how Mr..
Sousa and his men are able to stand the
strain. They will certainly appreciate
n rest when the last concert Is given
Just prior to the mid-winter holidays.
The concert of the band in this city
Is one OF this protracted series and
will occur on Tuesday evening, March
II, at the Academy of Music.

Broke Swccney's Leg.
William Sweeney, motorman on the
Bellevue line, received q compound
fracture of the leg about 3 o'clock yes
terday afternoon by being jumped on
by chief Ferber's bay horse.
Thomas Conlan, permanent man at
the HOOK ana Ladder house, had just
taken the horse out for exercise and
was driving down Lackawanna toward
the bridge. The Bellevue car was ap-
preaching and when the animal neared

and pranced about in a dangerous man
ner.
The driver was unable to control

Jumped upon the front platform, throw
Ing Mr., Sweeney down. He received
the fracture by the horse stepping upon
his leg.
Mr.. Sweeney was removed to the
Lackawanna hospital, where the bones
were set. The accident is attributed
to the horse becoming frightened at q
vehicle near by. Just week today a
mischieVOus youth struck the animal
with a snow ball and since that time
he has been afraid Of almost every
thing. The car was not damaged, nor
was Mr.. Conlan injured.

JOYS OF THE TURKISH BATH.
One of the Best known Remedies for
Colds and Grip.

One of the best preventives for grip
and usual colds and coughs so common
at this season of the year, when the
temperature is constantly changing
and germs of disease float upon every
breeze, is the Turkish bath. Under the
refreshing treatment of experienced at
tendants at the bath, one becomes n
new man, so to speak, and is better
able at all times to endure exposure in
this changeable climate.
Such a bath can be obtained at the
first-class establishment of NJ. j. Pur-
sell, 506 Spruce street, where will be
found one of the very best rubbers in
the country. The establishment is
neat and clean, everything is finished
up in the very best of style and baths
are guaranteed to be satisfactory.
When one stops to consider the bene-
fits arising from a Turkish bath given
the cost of the treatment must seem
slight, indeed.

ARE BITTERLY OPPOSED.
Second Ward People DO Not Want MIR.
Hogan to Get License.

Attorney H. C. Reynolds, represent
ing Garrick NJ. Maynard, yesterday
filed protest against granting hotel
license to Herman Hagan of the Sec
ond ward of this city.
1t is alleged that the building in
which Mr.. Hagan desires to conduct
the hotel is inadequate in size and that
a Misrepresentation with regard to it
is contained in the petition asking for
the license. 1t is further charged that
the wrong number of the house is given
and that eight of the signatures on his
petition have been tampered with in
some manner, as they appear to be in
the same handwriting.
Mr. Hogan asked for license in 1893
and was refused. 1t is set forth in the
protest that the people of the Second
ward are bitterly opposed" to license
being granted to Mr.. Hogan.

drunk and disturbing the services at

Sunday night.
The prisoners, who are well connect
ed young men, went, 1t is asserted, to a
local hostelry and came into the church
well primed with something stronger
than water. Their frolics in the church
caused the services to be suspended
for a. time and the church officials de-
termined to make an example of the re-
cent offenders.

A DISTINGUISHED LODGER.
Claims to Be an Acquaintance Of Many
Great Men.

John II. Fox, Of Wilmington, Del,
was charity lodger at the central po-
lice station last night. He claimed to
have been law student in the office
OF the late Lewis C. Cassidy of Phila-
delphia, and said he Is personally ac-
quainted with w. f. Harrlty and ex-
Governor Pattison.
Fox is an elderly man. His CONVEX
sation Is polished and his information
is exact and extensive. But for the
evidence that he had been drinking
and his well-worn clothes his story
would seem plausible and probable.
He said that the last time he saw Mr..
Pattison was at the Worlds fair, when
they and Mr. Harrity dined together.
The lodger told many "reminiscences
of the Salisburys, the Bayards, and
other Delaware families. He said his

An interesting experiment was made
at Foote & Shears new building on
Washington avenue, yesterday, when
the Direct Electric Elevator" recent

ed to a severe test which resulted very
satisfactorily.
The elevator, which is fitted with

leased and the carriage fell but two
inches, being firmly held by the safety
appliances. 1t is capable of hauling
1000 pounds of goods, and the floor
