a newspaper article was enough to
make it irremediabIe. Count Kalnoky
resigned unexpectedly; his successor
was chosen to the establishment of
everybody. Count Goluchowski adds to
his professional qualities. which are ad-
mitted, the quality Of being a Partisan.

that the common ministry should rem

Now, cover the kettle with the lid,

Friday evening on Midway another
row occurred that stirred up the deni-

excitement. The cause of this hagrant
violation of the law, which of late seems
to go on unrestrained was about as fol-
lows:
y young man who in neighborly
way granted the request of a married
lady friend had presented her with his
photograph. The husband did not ap-
preciate this attention, and as the fire
of jealousy burned In his heart, secured
the assistance of young man who is
considered an expert in the listic art,
and proceeded to do up this inoffensive
young man. The result of the fight is
