In our issue of Sunday We gave a
complete and accurate account of the
unfortunate affair that happened at
the polling place in the Second ward
Saturday afternoon. In that article
the Leader published the news, just
as it always does, without the yarnish
of eurbstone gossip or seeking TO in
cite or prejudice the public mind, one
way or the other. We said then, as
we say now, that the affair is to be
deplored. and is unfortunate from ev-
ery standpoint. But we have full
faith in the law, and believe that in
the final disposition of the case all
narties connected with 1t will receive
what justice demands.
n is not the purpose of the Leader
either to persecute or to prosecute
the former we will leave to the two
"sbeets" that have been exclusively
engaged In that business for number
NJ wears. and we assure them that so
far as we are concerned they will have
An the future a clear field in that di-
rection, just as they have had In the
oast. AS to proseeuting-we have
neitber the desire nor the disposition
10 assume to PREJUDICE the action OF
the courts. We hold that 1t is the
proyince OF the newspaper to publish
the news, rather than to usurp the pre-
rosatiyes of the judiciary. This we
will continue 10 do. fully and fairly,
without color. prejudice or presump-
ton.

STANDING OF THE CLUBS.


When many of Hoyt's amusing farce
comedies are forgotten. his laughable
satire on stranger life in New
York city, entitled "A Stranger in New
York" which comes to the Auditorium
this Thursday night, will continue to
delight theatregoers. 1t is one of the
best efforts of the popular playwright,
and these who see "A Stranger in New
York" once always want to see it again
The humor of the piece is of such a
broad character that it is no eXagger-
alton to say that it is one continuous
laugh from beginning to end. The
company this season is considered the
best ever seen in the play, and in
cludes a number OF people who Great
ed the parts they ale still playing.

MADE HIS BED
On the Rear Platform Of a Coach
and Sustained Injuries.

George Flute, who was member of
the pearty of excursionists to Toledo
over the T. & o. C. Ext. Road Sunday,
fell from the rear end of coach and
received severe bruises. The cars
were crowded and all the seats occu-
pied, so Flue went to the back plat
form of one of the coaches, and there
laid down to sleep. When the train
reached Syracuse Flutes slumbers
we're rudely awakened by his body
coming in contact with the road bed.
The train was moving al a consid-
cradle speed and the fall injured Flute
quite severely. He laid on the track
from midnight Sunday night until a,
m. Monday morning when he was dis
covered and placed upon the south
bound train. His injuries We're attend
ed TO when ne reached the city.
The bruises which he received will
lay him up for some time He was
very fortunate 10 escape without any
broken bones, and the happy outcome
will probably teach him nct to repeat
his dreams on the platform of moving
coach.
