POLICE COURT DoINGS.
Paid $5 and Costs on Two Counts, Tn
 toxication and Resistance.

James Fitzpatrick, who is too good looking to do anything but play gen. tleman, was before the city court to- day charged with intoxication and va grancy. He was arrested yesterday by Officer Hickey. Fitzpatrick said his age was 27 years and his home in Hartford. He has been on the road for some time. Before sentence was passed he pleaded hard for clemency and tried to shed a tear or two to season his plea. But none came and he was fined $1O and costs.
 Pussans Pantienus was charged with intoxication and resistance. This man had a rough and tumble fight in his bedroom in a house on North Riverside street last evening. He first peeled fellow boarde1's nose, blacked his eyes and in other ways paid him the compliments of the season. For q quarter of an hour he fought Officers Kennaugh and Brickel before he was subdued. Pussans said he could not talk United States, but as he has been six or seven years i'll the country this was considered no excuse and his ig- norance was therefore his own loss. He was fined $5 and costs on each complaint.

PULLED HOUSE DOWN.
Crowd Infuriated Because Negro Had
 a White Housekeeper.

Washington, N. J., Jan 2.-A mob of 800 people, including some business men and a few women. wrought havoc in the home of David Lundy, an aged colored man living in Broad street the other night. Lundy is war veteran, n years old. Since his wife died, two years ago, he has been living alone until three weeks ago, when he en- gagged Hannah Losaw, white girl, 20 years old, to keep house for him.
 On Christmas Lundy and the girl went to the office of John D. Lind berry a justice of the peace, and asked to be married The justice not only refused, but indignantly ordered them out of his office The Lundy house became so disreputable after this that the neighbors made an effort to get the city authorities to clean out the place. The other night some of the citizens decided to take the law into their own hands
 l A crowd forced an entrance to the house by battering down the front l door. AS soon as the attack was made the girl ran out of the house and escaped the mob by taking refuge ! with a friend, block away. Lundy was upstairs at the time, and when the crowd attempted to go up he bran dished an axe and threatened to kill the first one to come near him. While the crowd halted he jumped out of a back window and fled across a field with the crowd in hot pursuit.
 1 Finding he was going to be caught Lundy turned and swung his axe, just missing a mans head This infuri-
 ated the mob, and some one hit Lundy | in the eye with q stone, another pound I ing him over the head with a shovel Some negro friends carried him to the house of a neighbor He is badly hurt
 The crowd then got ropes from Force $ marble works and fastening them over the house pulled it down. More than a hundred men had hold of the rope and when they had finished there was
 hardly a whole piece of timber left oi
 the house. A policeman, who had beer
 called, came upon the scene just as some one was in the act of applying
 a match to the shattered house.
 The Losaw woman and her mother left town the next morning before day break.

FATAL RAILWAY ACCIDENT.
B. md o. Train Jumped Track, Kili- ing Two and TnJuring Seventeen.

E. and o. Train Jumped Track, KilI-
 ing Two and IaJuring Seventeen.
 PETERSBURG, Jan. 2.-As a result of a through passenger train on the Balti- more and Ohio railroad jumping the track two men are dead and seventeen injured, five of whom are considered seriously hurt. The dead are the en- gineer, John Collins, and the fireman, McCune, both of Connellsville, Pa. The injured were all taken to Meyersdale for treatment as quickly as the relief train from Cumberland could get them there.
 The train which was ditched was the through passenger which left here at $40 a. m. yesterday bound for New York It was a full vestibuled train composed of engine, baggage car, post al car, two coaches, sleeper and Pull man chair car. In going down the steep grade one and a half miles west of Glencoe the engine, from cause as yet unexplained, jumped the track at the curve, and the entire train piled on top of it. Probably the only thing that prevented a wholesale death list was the fact that the heavy vestibuled cars did not break up in going over the en- bankment.
 The work to rescue the injured had to be done quickly because the gas tanks in the cars were exploded and set fire to the wreckage. The flames spread rapidly, and in short time the entire train was burned. The engine was completely demolished, and the two dead men when taken from the de bris were horribly mangled.
