A SERIOUS ASSAULT.

A serious assault occurred on a car
on the Barre electric road on We'd
nesday evening, George F. Howe, the
motorman, receiving a severe wound
In an attempted effort to quell the
disturbance made by troublesome
Italian who, with some others, per-
sisted in occupyingsthe rear platform
of the car, much to the inconvenience
of those who wished to pass.
The conductor attempted to put
them off and the motorman came to
his assistance. In the scrimmage
which followed Mr.. Howe was struck
by an Italian who had pipe in his
hand, holding it by the bowl. The
pipe-stem was driven into Mr.. Howe S
neck just in front of the right ear
and back Of the jaw, a distance of "a
inches, and then broken off. 1t did
not penetrate the jugular vein though
dangerously near it and it is thought
that if there are no other complica-
ton Mr.. Howe will recover. Nc
arrests have been made as it will
hardly be possible to identify the
man who made the assault.
