THE WEST END eX ClTD.
Screams and a Terrific Struggle ln 5
 Fourth Avenue Home Causes

Sunday night as the good people of the west end were returning to their respective homes, after attend ing divine services, they heard screams issuing from the lips of woman and a child in Q residence on West Fourth avenue, while the voice of man, in excited tones could be heard as he exclaimed: "Get out of the way and let me kill him. Following this came Q tre- mendous blow, as if some one had been smftten with club. The overturning of table and the crashing of broken dishes followed the blow. A piercing shriek in a woman's voice cut the night air and made those who heard it hurry to the scene, strong in the conviction that some poor unfortunate was be- ing murdered.
 Several neighbors hurried to the house in which the which the dis turbance was being created, Some of them armed with shot guns, pistols and clubs.
 On reaching the house the noise on the inside was furious. 4 man could be heard to eXcIaim: There he goes; kill himn This would be followed by heavy blow and 8 woman would then utter Q scream, and her cry would be echoed by that of a child,
 The neighbors attempted to enter the house, but found the doors lock- ed. The fight on the inside con tinued. The neighbors became most fearful and threatened to break the door if it was not opened. At this juncture there sounded a terrible blow, delivered by some one on the inside, and a gasping voice said "That settled him" The re- mark was followed by hysterlcal laugh from the woman.
 By this time the yard was full of excited neighbors, and they could control themselves no longer. One of the number burst open the door, and a startling scene met the eyes of those who rushed into the room. The owner of the house was in his shirt sleeves, armed with a poker, and the prespiration vas streaming from his face. His wife was stand ing on table, and the room ap- peared as if cyclone had swept through it.
 The neighbors demanded an ex- planation of the scene, and the owner of the house proudly stepped across the room and picked up 3 dead-rat.
 The rodent had entered the room and the good wife had pulled of her slipper and stuck it in the hole through which the rat entered and thus made a prisoner of him. The lady then took refuge on a table while the husband valiantly fought the unwelcomed intruder to the ldeath.

that tho high price of wheat Is duo to
short crops abroad. After telling us for
years that In some strange way tho
prices on silver and wheat were linked
together so that they could not get far
apart they now express surprise that
anybody should think that the rise Of
wheat had anything to do with the sill
yer question.
According to these eminent silver
statesmen. when tho price Of wheat goes
down ii Is because of tho "crime Of

cause Of the law Of supply and demand.
They say truly that IL the whole world

1t to silyerf And why not apply tho
