LAMP EXPLODED.
Some Excitement In a North Main
Street Tenement.
A New Kind OF Hold Up-Some North End
Noles.

There was great excitement in the ten
ement occupied by Frank Waterman and
family at 663 North Main street last even
ing 1t was caused by the explosion of II
kerosene lamp which set fire to the table
cloth and other articles on and near a
table on which the lamp stood. No one
was injured and Hose No. II, in response
to still alarm, put out the blaze. The
damage, except TO the furniture in the
tenement, was slight.
NO NEED OF DETECTIVES.
There was hold-up near the Silver
evening that will not figure in the police
reports at the city hall or give the rain
bow chasers there any trouble. The hold
up was followed by the dashing of heads
and frames together and 1t was peculiar
hold-up for most of the damage was
done To the held-up party after the
'hold" was loosened. The 'hold up"
was the curbstone and it held up a bicycle
and incidentally a man prominent in
police circles After the curbing released
its connection with the bike and the lat
ter moved toward the middle of the road
two other wheels came in sight and the
hard gravel on the middle of the road
took "a hand in preventing the men from
going further In their downward course.
1t is reported that one of the most in
fluential members of the City Council
delegation from Ward 3, has an ordinance
suitably drawn in his pocket providing
for an appropriation for an addition to
the Second station TO hold the bikes of
the officers there. 1t is probable that the
Union Railroad Company would contrib
ute to fund for an expert bike instructor
judging by the interference with the run
ming time of its cars-on Admiral street
and Branch avenue last evening.
CAUSED MUCH TALK
The one topic of conversation in Ward 8
yesterday was the Republican caucus of
the previous evening. Some Republicans
who did not attend but who should have
been there are the loudest in their con-
domination of the apparent effort to pack
and run the caucus withlDemocrats. The
large majority of Republican voters are
well satisfied with the ..outcome of the
election for ward committee but all recog-
nize the fact that closer union among
all elements of the party in the ward is
necessary so that in the future there may
be no repetition of the unpleasant affair

A Hard Cider Row.

One night last week Lester Ostran- der was entertaining g party of his boom companions, among whom was John Mclean, of Willlamstowu, Mass, at his home on Bunker Hill, Salisbury. They had, it is said, all been imoibing freely of hard cider for several days and making so much disturbance that the neighbors had complained. On this oc- casion the fun waxed fast and furious. During the progress of the carousal Constable Ward Pulver, who had war rants of arrest to serve, and 8 posse of four men, all armed with revolvers, en- tered the house. One of the carousers escaped, but the others, being crazy drunk, made stout resistance. Me- Lean attacked Pulver with an iron bar and Pulver shot him in the: shoulder Finally Arthur and James Ostrander. James Winters, William Sherwood and John Mclean were secured and locked up. Later Justice Hicks sentenced them to 30 days in the Litchfeld jail, where they were lodged on Thursday by Constable Pulver.
 John Mclean is reported as resting well, but the ball has not yet been ex- tracted from his shoulder and there is some danger of blood poiso ming.

 Again we have to report that this town has given vote in favor of license by majority of 22. Why cannot we follow the example of our Canaan neigh bors and say NO to this question every year?
