Proyed-uther Matters


In the City Court on Tuesday Mrs.
Helen, Fisher of Taylor and Locust
Streets was charged with selling
cigarettes to minors, but four boys
who were called said they never bought
cigarettes of her and there was nothing
in the evidence to show that she had
sold any to boys and the case was
dismissed. Her counsel, William II.
Kurtz, said he would like to show
that the prosecution was spite work on
the part of the informant, but the
court informed him that he had his
remedy In another tribunal.
Harry Brown, colored, was charged
with trespass 1t developed in the
evidence that he had taken pigeon
belonging to white man and had sold
it, but as he promised to return the

show that he had tresrassed, the case
was dismissed. MIX Inspector Nc
Evilly said he would see to it that the
boy returned the pigeon.
| At Monday nights session the case
against Bertha Scott, colored, charged
with assault and battery, was dis
missed, and that aeainst Michael
Havanaugh, charged with disorderly

Postmaster General WheelocK of
Canada has introduced in the DO
minion House of Commons q bill to
amend tho postoffico act Under the
present act publishers may enclose in
newspapers sent to subscribers certain
matter, such as accounts, circulars,
invitations for subscriptions, and SO
on, but are not allowed to do this IN
the case of sample copies that is,
papers sent to other than subscribers.
The first section Of this bill proposes
to4extend the'same privilege to sample
copies as is now given in the case OF
copies sent to regulate subscribers. The
second section proposes to make
eligible for the positions OF superin-
tendents of railway mail service clerks
who have been in the railway mail
service, even though they may not
have been continuously railway mail
clerks. At present superintendent
must be chosen from those who have
been for ten years railway mail clerks,
and this somewhat limits the choice.
The third section provides for the
fixing of rate for mailable matter
mailed after the regular hour .fol
closing the mails. The object is &c
enable the postofiice to forward to the
trains matter that would ordinarily
have toiwait until the next outgoing
train, and for this service to prescribt
q late fee. This system is in use II
England and elsewhere.
The last provision is to enable th'
department to provide indemnity TO-
the loss OF registered mailable matter
| to the extent of S25, or whatever les
SIM, Ia sufficient To make I'm tho actua
loss. and TO charge fees as an insurance
fund to make good tho loss to the do
rartment under such circumstances.

Attacked by q crowd of Young Men Near
His Residence.

While demonstrating with six young
men who were trospassing on his
property, lockwood, near Shellpot

to the men and requested them to
leave, and as they refused to do so,
went to the house, after which he re-
turned with revolver and stout club
and ordered them oh.

him, and after taking his revolver from

on the body until he was badly
bruised. His life was probably saved
by Samuel johnson, colored, who wenl
to the rescue. After the fight the
