Some Exciting Incidents In Town and
Other Places
SPECIAL POLICE In A BRAWL
One of Them Badly Beaten by Two Of the
Foroe-A Young Man Shot at Cen
tralia-s -stabbing ARRAY at
Lost Creek.

Saturday night was productive of the
many scenes usually enacted and the police
and cOnstables were kept busy in many
quarters Numerous arrests were made on
various charges, but there still are number
of warrants not executed, and for the next two
or three nights pay day echoes will be heard
in the offices of the Justices.
The most notable case Saturday night was
one in which Anthony Alex, special officer
and First ward night watchman, was badly
beaten by William Saduskey and Joseph
Anderson, also special officers The affray
took place on East Lloyd street 1t is alleged
that Saduskey used black jack and Ander-
son made use of revolver The latter
denies that he took an active part in the as
sault, but admits that he threatened to assault
Alex and hunted him for that purpose
Saduskey and Anderson claim that Alex had
slandered them
Alex presented sorrowful appearance
when he testified before Justice Toomey.
His scalp was so badly cut that ten stitches
were put in it and his face looked as if it had
passed through a cyclone Alex also alleged
that he was robbed of ten dollars during the
assault, but this charge is refuted by the
accused. Saduskey and Anderson furnished
$500 bail, each, for trial at court.
Among the incidents that attracted atten-
tion on Main street between nine and ten
o'clock Saturday night was smashing OF
glass at saloon Somebody inside hurled a
soda water bottle through large pane OF
glass in the front door. The bottle fell upon
the pavement, but fortunately struck none OF
the many people who were passing the place
at the time. No arrests were made, and the
trouble evidently ended with the crashing
of the glass.
John Smith, Lithuanian. was among thu
Saturday night prisoners before Justice Shoe
maker. He was charged by Policeman
George Traits with carrying concealed
deadly weapons, but was released upon the
payment of costs.

burglars at Mahanoy City,

Early yesterday morning burglars entered
the Office of Swift & Co.. at Mahanoy City,
but were evidently frightened away before
securing their booty. They gained entrance
through window. The combination knob
of the safe was broken, and hole drilled in
the safe door and then the latter was blown
off. An inner door still protected the con-
tents of the safe, and they were frightened
off before this door was blown open The
safe only contained books and papers. A
message received from Mahanoy City to-day
stated that two suspicious characters were
seen on the mou stain between Shenandoah
and Mahanoy Plane yesterday afternoon
They were vending their way towards this
town, and had in their possession kit OF
burglars tools. They are supposed to be the
men who tried to blow open the safe. One
was tall and sim, and the other was a short
stout man with Horid complexion.

Tie Commissioner Vacancy.

From Pottsville Chronicle.
And now comes the story that there will
be no County Commissioner appointed until
the latter part of December when Judge
Koch will recommend Charles A. Snyder the
defeated candidate for County Controller, for
the vacancy. This is good news for the
authenticated and ever-hopeful Charles A.,
but it will no doubt be a surprise to many
The story seems to have some foundation
from the fact that Mr.. Snyder's friends say
he can have the place, and Charlie himself
says he has his lightning rod up and expects
to be hit. Well, since it will be Republi-
can, Snyder will fill the bill as well as any
other

WINE AND DIVORCE.
Reason Why Dr. Tallman Wants
 Marriage Bond Severed.

Chicago, Feb. 3-Dr. s. Lewis Tall man, formerly a physician of the Northern hotel, and who disappeared for time about year ago under sen sational circumstances, has fled an application for divorce from his sec ond wife, Jane Mckinley Cannon Tall man.
 Shortly after Dr. Tallman's disap- pearance his first wife, widely known as a newspaper writer under the nom de plume of Teresa Dean, secured a divorce on the grounds of impropr:ety with Mrs. Cannon. Dr. Tallman's reasons for asking a divorce are some what unique. He says he was mar ried to Jane Mckinley Cannon at Fargo, N. D., December IT, 1896, while they were both confined and sick and Irresponsible mentally from the ef- fleets of drinking a bottle of wine which they supposed to be pure, bu. which, the doctor alleges, con aimed poisonous drugs. The wine, Dr. Tal- man says, made them temporarily in- sane and incompetent to enter into contract of any kind He also says that he never consented to become the husband of Jane Mckinley Can non, and that he has never recognized her as his wife.

A PLACE FOR WOMEN.
Four Faces to Be Carved in the New
 York State Capital.

Albany, N Y, Feb. 3.-Sup er.ntendh ent of Public Works Aldridge has de- cided on some changes in connection with the artistic work of Lhe grand stairway in the capitol building. One of the features of the stairway is the carving of distinguished personages' heads in the cap of the columns. There has been some criticism of this work, on the ground that some of the personages whose memory it has been sought to honor have not been of distinguished character. When Superintendent Aldridge took charge he endeavored to overcome some of the criticism, the outcome of which was that some of the heads that ha l been cut were removed and others re- cut. He also decided that the heads of the governors should be carved in the space below the dome of the stair way, instead of indiscriminate sub jects. There are not ito exceed a dozen spaces for heads remaining uncut. In all the artistic work the part whiah woman has taken in history has been overlooked, for the face of not one single distinguished woman looks down upon the visitor. 1t is the d;s- covery that has led to the change of plans referred to and caused 6uperin- tendent Aldridge to announce that he has selected four women as types rep resenting women in four d;stinc; spheres and giving direction that their portraits shall be carved in the stair way caps. These four women are Cap tain Molly Pitcher, Harriet Beechel Stowe, Clara Barton and Susan B. An thOny.
