AS the flames and smoke could pc

that it was the stocking mill, and big
crowd started for the fire.
The sequel to a premeditated assault
with a club was aired before Justice
Clarke in the district court this morn
ing when Mrs. Mary Glenn was ar
raigned on complaint of Mrs. Bridget
Grady of 65 Granite row, North WEBB
ster. The case was the most sensational
for a long time, and private family
doings were airily presented.
The evidence showed that Patriots
day was celebrated pretty wen by these
people, and during the evening Mrs.
Grady went, as she supposed, on an
errand of mercy, but it ended in a
split head for her instead. The blow
that she received required five stitches
to close.
When Mrs. Grady reached Mrs.
Glenns house the latter woman met
her at the threshold and shaking her
clinched fist in her face, wanted to
know if she (AIrs. Grady had said GER
tain things about her. The answer she
received was not favorable, and she
picked up a heavy club and struck
Mrs Grady twice over the head, telling
her to the ground.
A witness, Mrs. Mary Leonard, said
that the assaulted woman had been
lured to the house on pretense that she
was wanted to remove a silver from
the witness hand.
During the trial, Mrs. Glenn became
excited several times and in one in
stance told the judge that she would
strike his the same way, were it IN
der similar circumstances.
The judge found her guilty and said
that considering the large family that
her husband had to support, and a
heavy penalty which should be impos-
ed. would only come out of the hard
working husband, but considering the
nature of the offence he would give her
a very light sentence, and accordingly
fined her So

an opinion before the meeting of the
board of selectmen, Monday evening.
The objection against the place at
School and Church streets, where Eus-
tace Bros. have applied for a license,
is only sentimental, but the people of
St. Johns church say that the senti-
ment can be made very strong against
granting the license, if necessary.

Louis Junger Hears Remington and
MauSer Bullets.

Under date of Quingua, Philip
pine Islands, Oct. 18th, Louis Jun
ger of this city, a member of Co. D.,
Third United States Infantry,
writes to The GAZETTE that he is
five miles from Mololos.
ID and B companies are doing
garrison duty here and part of the
regiment is in Baliuag, and one
troop of the Fourth cavalry and one
battery of the Third artillery and
the second battalion, which Major
Cook is in command of, are north of
San Fernando, in a town by the
name of Mexico. You see the firing
line is about six miles from there.
II was in Guiguinta on the 18th,
and with F company had a little
fight. We had two men wounded
and none killed. l was up to Ba-
liuag Saturday night and while l
was there the niggers opened up on
the east side of the town from across
the river. Well, I stopped with l.
company, and when the firing start
ed I went with the company. We
double timed it up to the plaza and
then we halted. You ought to have
heard the Remingtons whistle over
our heads, and now and then you
could hear the gentle bask OF the
Mauser. Our artillery went out on
the water front and fired a shot
across the river. 1t was a solid
shot and then they dropped a
shrapnel shell over there and that
killed three niggers. The niggers
stopped firing and then we marched
back to our quarters and went to
bed with our clothes on, and about
IL o clock they started the ball roll
ing again. We got out of our quar-
ters pretty lively. Now and then a
bullet would come through the roof
They kept firing for about an hour
and then they stopped, and we went
back to bed again, but it was no use
for about two O'Clock they opened
up all around us. When they got
through we went to bed again and
slept until morning.
"Baliuag is very nice place. 1t
has very fine church and nice,
large market, and man can buy
most anything there. A soldier has
very heavy duty here.
''Our troops are having lots of
} trouble along the railroad. We
have about 200 Macabebe scouts and
they are doing fine work. We have
natives doing police duty in Manila.
They have made some very fine CAP
lures in the city, but really, the
, only time we can trust a nigger is
when he is dead.
''Old Aggie turned over II Amer
ican prisoners last month and three
of them were from our regiment.

This Week at Ksith,s.

The eleventh year of its magnificent
success as theatre devoted to the best in
vaudeville at popular prices will be in
augurated at Keith's this week. The in
itial bill of the new year in its history will
contain many interesting features. One
of the best of these is new sketch by
Milton and Dolly Mobiles, entitled ''The
Blue Grass Widow" Mr. Mobiles will be
the young husband whose Irritation with
friends wife is nipped in the bud by the
Blue Grass Widow dainty and charming
Dolly Nobles). This piece is said to have
been the comedy feature of Keith's Goth
am bill last week. Among the new-c com
ers is Baby Lund who is said to have nc
rival as juvenile entertainer, her engage
ment in Chicago equaling that of Ching
Ling Foo, who, by the way is to return to
Philadelphia next week She is a COM
edienne and vocalist. 1t is averred that
the shapeliness of the Mouliene Sisters
would attract attention in a group of Ca
sino girls, while their performance would
constitute a star offering in any circus
bill. This is the only female horizontal
bar team in the world. Bedina and Ar
thur, who are said to be the foremost
comedy acrobats, are among the recent
importation for Roster & Bial's that are
good. Wormwood's dog and monkey cir
Gus possesses more animals than any other
troupe of the sort, and during the past
summer the entertainment was given
in tent in many cities. The Gypsy
Quartet is the best singing speciality in
vaudeville, and the Raymond Trio pre-
sents a pleasing turn of instrumental mu-
sic. The biograph, Mcbride and Good
rich, Blasco and Dovetlo are also to pro-
vide enjoyable entertainment.

The Raslroad Appeals.

The final decree of the Court of Chan
Gerry, prescribing the manner in which the
Trenton Street Railway Company shall
cross the tracks of the Pennsylvania rail
road at Yardville, was filed Thursday.
The decree provides for grade cross
ing similar to that prescribed by the first
decree made by the same court, but
which was subsequently set aside. on
technical grounds, by the Court of Errors
and Appeals.
1t is prescribed in the decree that the
crossing shall be in conformity with the
grade of the Crosswicks and Trenton turn
pike with single track, having a gauge
of not more than five feet two inches and
running as nearly as possible at an angle
of ninety degrees to the tracks of the rail-
road.
1t is provided also that the trolley com
pany shall lay its tracks and crossing frogs
in manner best adapted to secure abso-
Lutte safety to the steam railroad company
and the public. The decree forbids the
railroad company to add to its tracks at
the point of crossing, unreasonably, for the
purpose of annoying or impeding the op-
erations of the trolley company. The rail
road company is given the option of doing
the work if it SO desires, the reasonable
cost to be borne by the trolley company.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Company,
through its counsel, Alan Strong, has al
ready taken an appeal from the second de-
cree of the Court of Chancery. This ap-
peal, which was filed Thursday afternoon
by Mr.. Strong, is general in its terms and
does not specify the grounds on which it
rests. This action on the part of the rail
road company will have the effect of pre-
venting the trolley company from cross
ing the railroad tracks until the case has
been disposed Of once more by the Court
of Errors and Appeals.
