A SERIOUS
STHBBIHG.
Edward bowling Held to Await Results
Of the injuries.
FOLLOWED A ROW IN A SALOON
Bowling Was Followed to Bis Home and
one of the Men Who Went After
Him Received a Knife Wound
in the Groin

Charles Weslow lies at the homo of his
father, on West Coal street, suffering from a
knife wound in the loft groin inflicted al
about IL o'clock on Saturday night by Ed.
ward Bowling, who also lives on West Ccal
street. 1t was thought at first that the
wound would prove fatal and reports spread
at different times that the man was dead
DR.. Stein, who is in attendance, SAYS that
while the wound is q very serious one, it is
not dangerous, and if blood poisoning does
not set in the man will recover.
Bowling was arrested by Constable Matt.
Giblon and taken before Justice Toomey.
The prisoner waived a hearing and was com
mitted without bail pending DEVELOPMENTS.
Bowling is over 80 years of age and is the
man who was arrested few months ago on a
charge of attempting to rape little Polish
girl. The Grand Jury indicted him, but for
some unknown reason the case was never
brought to trial.
The trouble first arose in the saloon ON
West Coal street kept by the father of the
young man who was stabbed According to
the facts CLEANED it appears that Bowling,
who lives near the saloon, went into the
place with a can to get five cents worth of
beer. The bartender, it appears, filed a
glass under the beer spigot and poured the
contents into the can. Bowling demurred
He claimed that enough beer had not been
given him. He took his FIVE cents from the
counter and dumped the beer into the spit
toon. A fight followed, duHng which
Bowling was beaten by some of the men in
the saloon and thrown out upon the street
Sometime after, Dowlings friends say it
was about an hour, Charles Wesow, the one
stabbed and his brother, John, went up to
Dowling's house. The latter was sitting on
the porch. Here the stories of the parties
differ. The Weslow's say that during the
struggle at the saloon Bowling seized and
broke the watch chain and secured the watch
of one of the brothers. They decided to go
to the house and demand the watch When
they accosted Bowling, they say he jumped
up and started a fight in which Charles Wes-
low was stabbed in the groin. On the other
hand, it is claimed that the brothers walked
up to the porch and Immediately attacked
Bowling. The latter has made no statement
TO the authorities and the explanations ad-
yanced in his behalf are made by friends,
some of whom claim it will be shown that
John Weslow stabbed his brother in mistake.
The brothers, however, firmly assert that
Bowling did the stabbing

upon his hearers that It was pleasure to
listen to it as a 6ne literary effort, apart from
its deeper religious interest to those whom it
was more particularly intended to instruct
Much praise is due the choir and its accom-
plished organist, Miss Kate Maley for the
success Of the event as also the soloists of the
evening, Misses Lailerty, Cavanaugh and
Coogan and Messrs Grady and Lally. The

Of this part Of the program Rev. O'Reilly re-
ceived 80 initiates into the sodalty and vested
them with the insignia of the society. The
reverend gentleman then extended his con-
gratulations and complmented the society on
having celebrated the most successful an

the slightest confusion and great credit is due

John Zintrowicz sustained slight internal
injuries last night by falling from the roof of
his house in Robbins row on East Line
street, while putting out fire. The fire was
discovered at about seven o'clock and an
alarm was sounded The shingles of the
roof had been iguited by frecrackers thrown
in the air by boys. Zintrowicz rushed up
stairs and climbed out an attic window to the
roof When engaged in tearing of
the burning shingles he lost his bal
ance and fell over the edge of the
roof A shanty broke his fall, but wher
he landed upon the ground he was unable
to arise. Friends carried him iEto neigh,
boring house until the fire was extinguished
and he was then removed to his own house
and attended by Drs. G. M. Hamilton and
Clifton Robbins. No fractures were found
and the doctors expressed the opinioon that
the victim would recover in few days. The
fire was put out without the assistance of the
fire department Only a few shingles of the
roof were damaged.

quilted with beautiful flowers, and their
fragrance peryaded the spacious place of

The pastor, Rev IL. F. O'Reilly was as
sisted during the evening by the curate, Rev.
Henry Naylon, and DR.. Kennedy a pro.
fessor at the St. Charles Seminary, Over
brook, who afterwards addressed the
audience. DR., Kennedy's address was an
able one delivered with all the graces Of an
accomplished orator, aud was clear explana-
tion of the position accorded by the church
to the Virgin Mother and, although nearly
an hour was consumed in its delivery, the
reverend gentleman handled his subject in
such mastery manner that the interest Of
the large congregation, which his polished
manner had enlisted from the beginning.

quotations from learned doctors of the
church and from the poets so apposite in il.
