Well Known Character About the Streets
Of This City.
Levi K. Clark, an old time resident Of
the "Bowery" in this city, sentenced Jan.
9, 1896, to eight years. imprisonment in the
State Prison for murderous assault on
James o. Reed, the keeper of the poor
house OF Lincoln, on Nov. Il, 1894, died at
the old town prison today Of an attack Of
the grip. He was over 20 years old, and
was cripple, with bad temper. This
got him into trouble which landed him in
State Prison.
He was a orty-niner, and in conse-
quence of an encounter with the redskins,
was bald from his brow to the back of his
neck, his scalp having become the adorn-
ment of Sioux Indians belt. Clark was
an inmate of the Lincoln poor house, and
on the day of the assault, keeper Reed
accused him of having broken the rules
by smoking in his room, charge which
Clark denied with much indignation,
which found expression in the pAysical
abuse of the keeper. Reed retired from
his presence, but when Clark again caught
sight of him he renewed his attack, and
was ordered into the house.
Upon his refusing, Reed went toward
him, but was stopped by a bullet from a
revolver, which struck him in the breast,
but did no h,rm.' Clark attempted to
shoot twice again, hut the pistol missed
fire. Clark was overpowered, arrested,
tried and convicted.
A few years ago Clark was well known
character about the streets, and had be-
come a nuisance to the citizens.

able feeling in regard to the remarks made
by President Currier of the Cumberland
Town Council. President -Currier, at the
meeting of the Cumberland Council, OBJ
iected, in a way, to appropriating money
for Decoration Day exercises because he
felt that full justice was not being done
to the soldiers graves. He said that he
approved of decorating the graves in the
proper manner. The members of Ballou
Post have not taken kindlys'to this criti-
cism, and expressed their opinions last
evening in most decided manner.
A motion was made that committee bs
appointed to wait upon President Currier,
but after some discussion 1t was defeated.
It was finally decided to pursue the same
course as in former years, and IL the Post
received no pecuniary aid from the town
Of Cumberland that district would be
dropped next year. The Post received an
invitation from Tower Post of Pawtncket
to assist on memorial afternoon in the
dedication of the soldiers monument. The
invitation was accepted, and In conse-
uuence the memorial exercises will be held

o'clock sharp in the morning, and the line
will move at 8 o'clock.

the Central Falls Cadets have been pre-
pairing for the grand minstrel show which

License Commissioners Met
Last Evening to Receive
Liquor Applications.
Many Straw Bonds Accepted
Last Year by the Members OF
the License Board.
WOMAN INJURED BYA BICYCLLST.
A Well Known Character Of This City Died at
the State Prisou-Ladles' Night at the
AIcarar-Notes About the City.

The Board of License Commissioners
met last evening to receive the second
batch OF applicants for licenses for the en-
suing year, and quite number were taken
under consideration for future action.
One important matter in connection with
the granting of licenses ought to be taken
into consideration by the members Of the
Board, and receive their closest attention.
In many cases last year the bonds fur
nished by some of the dealers were not
worth the paper they were written on. In
one particular instance one Of the bonds
men for liquor dealer was refused on two
different occasions a. surety in the Dis
trict Court by Judge Gon. 1t can be safely
assumed IL man is not good enough to
act % bondsman in 800 civil suit surely
he 10 not responsible person to accept as
a bondsman by the License Commission
ers.
Again, in some other cases the bonds
men are, in reality, not worth . cent, as
their property is mortgaged almost to the
full limit. When the board accepts such
bonds as these the city will be the loser II
the occasion arises wherein a suit is to be
brought. Although for that matter, SEEM
ingIy, 1t will make but little difference, in
a.much as somebody Is woefully lax in
pushing the cases reported by the Mayor.
However, the remedy lies in the hands of
the members of the License Board to see
that none but responsible bondsmen are
accepted.
The Board was called to order by Presi-
dent Sloan, and the following list of ap-
plicants was read and referred for con-
alteration: Patrick H. Spellman, III
Lonsdale avenue; John Rochliffe, 592
Lonsdaie avenue; Patrick Higgins, 37 Pine
street; Frank Leveille, 582 Broad street !;
Owen Gilligan, 697 Dexter street; Philip
A. Crossen, "A Central street; Edwin Hunt,
6ol Dexter street; Fred Willoughby, 81
Crossman street; Robert F. Hayden, t5
Washington street; Thomas McHale, 80
Garfield street; Benz. Pearson, So Moore
street; Louis Derouin, corner Washington n
and Cowden streets; James 8. Mennier,
81 Lincoln avenue; Joseph Messier, 133
and 1876 Garfield street; Joseph Demarais,
70 Hedley avenue; William II. Elderkin,
596 Pine street; Thomas Burns, 1852 Wash
ington street; James Cadden, 600 Mill
street; John O'DonneIl, SO Central street;
Adolphe Coliette, 13s Cowden street.
All places which are granted licenses
and do not pay for the same on or before
the closing of the 3Oth day of April will
not be allowed to open their saloons on
May 1. Several license bonds were ap-
proved and the Board adjourned until
tomorrow night.

MAYOR AND POLICE ENDORSED

The License Commissioners ON q Tour OF
Inspection.
The members of the Board of License
Commissioners are visiting the saloons Of
those persons who have applied for licenses
for the ensuing year. In conversation
with TRIBUNE reporter last night the
members said that they had visited several
places about the city and they had found
that there was general disposition among
the dealers to live up to the laws provided
for the observance of the liquor traffic.
In only one place had they seen the slight
est semblance to violation of the ordi-
nance, and this was unintentional az the
dealer was only too willing to make the
necessary changes. This is monument Of
praise for the Mayors and police depart
ments endeavor to make the dealers COM
ply with the law.

UP THE VALLEY.
Lively Times Expected at
Meeting Of Lincoln Council
Union Temperance Committee to
Ask For Fewer Saloons.
The Same Fight viii Be Made Before Cumber.
land Council Local Items.

The Union Temperance Committee, ap-
parently, arc determined to make the
most of their increased voting strength.
The communication sent within the past
few days to the Town Councils of Cum
berland and Lincoln indicate quite clearly
their purpose. The committee intend to
ask the Town Council of Lincoln to re-
duce the licenced places to two. They put
forth the claim that the increase of PIG
for no-license over the vote of last year
is an indication that the people do not
desire to have SO many licensed saloons.
They further claim that large proper
tlon of the increased no-license vote was
obtained i'm District 4. The committee say
that six or seven saloons on Prospect Hill
Is out of all proportion to the population,
and for that reason the number ought to
be curtailed. From remarks dropped by
people who ought to know, 1t seems to be
the disposition of the members of the
Council to draw the line on those dealers
who are said to be peddling liquor from
to ans. Fridays meeting will be an even. :
full one, as great fight is expected from
tn temperance people.
The same argument will be advanced
the Town Council of Cum mberland at their
meeting Friday. The no-license vote re-
ceived material gains at the last election,
and in view of this fact the committee
claims that some consideration ought to
be given to their communication.
