HE is NOT ON THE FORCE.

Patrolman Martin Flaherty is no
longer member of the police force, at
least so Mayor Moir says, and
Flaherty is no longer assigned to any
beat.
1t will be remembered that City So
licitor Vosburg In one of his opinions
on the police matter decided that the
officer ceases to be a member Of the
force on the date of the mayors COM
munication to council removing him
and on this the mayor bases his asser-
ton.
The newly appointed officer, Thomas
NJ. Connery, will not go on duty till
select council confirms his appoint
ment and by this means any delay or
legal tangles regarding the payment
of his salary will be avoided. The
mayor says he is willing to have
Flaherty remain on duty until coun-
ell confirms COnnery's appointment but
that If this was done the former could
draw no pay unless he was reappoint-
ed, having already been removed.

What Would You Give

To be cured of catarrh? If you or your
friends have this disease, you know
how disagreeable it is. Its symptoms
are infiamed eyes. throbbing temples,
ringing noises in the ears, headaches,
capricious appetite, and constant dis.
charge of mucus. Fortunately it's cure
is not question of what you will give,
but what you will take. If you will
take Hoods Sarsaparilla, the great
constitutional remedy, which thorough
ly purities, enriches and vitalizes the
blood, you may expect to be completely
and permanently cured. The good
blood which Hoods Sarsaparilla makes,
reaching the delicate passages of the
mucous membrane, soothes and re-
builds the tissues and ultimately cures
all symptoms of catarrh

WORMSER WAS ARRESTED
Clothier Charged with Violation of
New Ordinance-He Has Taken
an Appeal to Court.

Morris Wormser, who keeps a cloth
ing store at 412 Lackawanna avenue,
was arrested yesterday by Chief of
Police Robllng for selling without a
special license. The arrest was made
under the provisions of an ordinance
just passed by councils which provides
that all transient merchants pay
special license tax of 800 for the privi-
lege of selling.
Wormser was taken before Alderman
Millar, before whom the warrant was
issued, and was sentenced to pay
fine of s1Ov. mis- he refused to do and
he was accordingly committed to the
county Jail, where he remained just one
hour and a half.
He was then brought before Judge
Edwards and his attorney, Joseph
O'Brien, asked for an appeal to the
court of quarter sessions, claiming that
the fine imposed was not authorized by
law and that the act of assembly IN
which the ordinance is based is un-
constitutional. He also asserted that
Wormser isa permanent merchant, haV-
ing been in business here nearly a
year. Court allowed the appeal and
Wormser was held in $500 bail for his
appearance in court Jacob Falk. OF
Wilkes Barre, qualified as his bonds
man.
Wormser was arrested on a similar
charge in this city last spring, his
arrest being based on similar ordin-
ancc, He was released, however, on
Judge Gunster declaring that ordin-
ance unconstitutional. The new or
dinance was drawn up with an eye to
remedying the defects in the old one
| and the coming decision of court re-
garding it will, no doubt, be watched
with much interest.

Coroner j. j. Roberts held an in
quest in Squire Williams office in
Prlceburg last night to inquire into
the causes of the death of Joseph Eel
inski. who died at Foley's hotel on
Tuesday last.
A number of witnesses were called
who testified that Foley pushed Zelin-
ski out of his place and kicked him,
but their stories varied in regard to the
violence of the assault Foley was
represented by Attorneys G. T. OMal-
ley. ]. Il. Jordan and w. II. Lewis.
DIR. Meyers testified that he at
tended Zelinski the night of the lat
ter's death and found him in a par
alyzed condition, but without any ex-
ternal marks of injury. Zelinski was
strong, powerfully built man and 1t
seemed odd that kick should have
had such fatal results on him. An
ME Harvin, Mary Fargowski and Clara
Libijynski, three little girls of about
IA years of age. each testified that
they stood outside of the saloon and
saw Foley shove Zelinski out and kick
him. They became rather confused
under cross-examination, but still
clung to their story and could not be
shaken in 1t.
John Barrett, John Bray and Ste
phen Beddre, miners, all testified that
they had been standing outside and
saw zelinski forcibly elected from the
hotel Zelinski. after being kicked,
staggered a few steps and then
dropped. John McGowan and William
Ely testified that Zelinski entered the
saloon in an intoxicated condition, and
for that reason had been refused q
drink. He then began to swear, and
was put out by Foley. They could not
say what took place outside of the
saloon.
The coroner then addressed the jury
and told them that he had performed
an autopsy on Zelinskis body. He had
removed the dead mans heart, and
found 1t was in a diseased condition.
His liver was slightly enlarged and one
kidney very much enlarged.
Therefore he had come to the con-
clusion that the deceased was suffer-
ing from Bright's disease.
The cap of the mans skull had been
removed and it was seen that he had
many hemorrhages in his brain and
large clots of blood were also gathered
there. From all these indications, the
coroner said that II was very likely
the man had diseased blood-vessnls
also. One Of his vertebrae also was
fractured.
a man in such a condition might,
being intoxicated, have fallen from tn =
drunkenness and the shock proved
fatal. on account of the condition of his
vital organs.
The case was then put in the hands
of the jury, which was made up of DR..
Kennedy, John Hail. George Ely. John
Barron, Reese Davis and Charles Sug.

At late hour the jury had not yet
agreed upon a verdict,

WOULDN'T LET HIM VOTE.
William Mclaughlin Charged with
Assaulting Benjamin Lupini.

A warrant was sworn out before AL
derman Howe Wednesday by Ben
tamin Lupini of Genet street, charg-
ing William Mclaughlin, of Stone
avenue, with assault and battery and
refusing to let him vote. Mclaughlin
it seems is a judge of election in the
Fourth district of the Twentieth ward
Luipini on election day went to the
polling booth to cast his vote, but Nc
Laughlin for reason unknown, resent
ed the int cUsion, and to borrow from
the vocabulary of Professor James
Jeffries, he handed him stiff one
in the jaw" He followed this up by
banishing Lupini from his domains
and absolutely refusing to let him
vote.
The warrant was served yesterday
and Mclaughlin waived a hearing be-
fore Alderman Ruddy, of the South
Side, being put under $500 bail for his
appearance at court.

THE STORM,

The recent severe storm and un.
precedented cold will pass into his
tory as being the most severe record
ed. The blizzard of 1888 was
realization to us of what the ele-
ments in their untamed fury can do,
but the recent storm surpassed even
that in the intensity of cold and its
widespread effects. The reports
from all parts of the country are of
a similar character, travel blocked,
business suspended, and great suf-
fering among the poor. In the
south especially where unprepared-
edness renders the people more sus-
ceptible to extremes of cold has the
greatest inconvenience been felt.
In certain parts of Kentucky the
thermometer registered 800 below
zero which was probably twenty
degrees lower than it reached any
where in this vicinity There seems
to be no meteoric explanations of
these phenomena. The elements
have no fixed laws regarding heat
and cold, both come and humanity
sizzles in summer and shivers in
winter, the sport alike of blazing
sun or a drop in the mercury.
