Roland Count Of Mans, knight Of Blaives,
and nephew of Charlemagne, strobe down the
Bowery yesterday, and near Spring-st. met Wis
avis his arch enemy, Ferracute, the giant The
Christian hero raised his charmed sword, Du-
randall, tempered by the fairies that it could
cut rock, while the monster swung al0ft
spiked club. The weapons cldshed in conflict.
The powers of darkness were struggling with
the powers of light.
The fighters surrounded by mot
ley crowd, such as could only be recruited from
tn 5 district of the city. The pawnbroker left his
ancient collection of tfddles and joined the group.
The saloonkeeper was there. The tattooer,
whose handiwork is to be seen aboard hun
dred ships, edged near the conflict. But the
weary .panhandler," thinking that one of his
own fraternity was being arrested, skunk to the
other side of the street.
Roland just about to deliver final,
all penetrating thrust, when a policeman ap-
pcared on the outskirts of the crowd.
Move on, youse!" he shouted, he pulled
down his helmet to appear like a medieval
knight himself. The spectators scattered. Only
the paladin of Charemagnc's court and his
hideous foe remained, but their disgrace
to he as sudden it was complete. Roland
gave Ferracute a quick, frightened look, and
then collapsed. On his PROSTATE form tumbled
the giant. Sawdust oozed from their many
cuts. their hair Uttered the sidewalk. and where
Roland had cut off the giants leg there pro-
jected i Jagged stick of wood Roland, the

A Serious Accident.

Phil Ware, the son of Edward ware
suffered an accident, Saturday, that
will leave him MANNED for life and
one that might have resulted even
more seriously. He had found dyna-
mite cartridge and was planning to
put it on the end of pencil, accord
ing to the custom of school boys, not
realizing what a power for injury the
innocent looking little thing had con-
cealed inside.
He was digging out the explosive
when it exploded, tearing his left hand
terribly. The thumb was completely
blown away, while the first two fingers
were so badly mangled that they hac
to be amputated. The work was done
by Drs. C. w. Abbott and l.. G. Bun
ker, and the first result was excel
lent, although it of course cannot be
determined what complications may
arise later, as the injury was yer,
serious one. -
Bad as the accident was it nigh
have been worse, for there was power
enough in the cartridge to kill had i
been turned in certain directions, bu
as it happened the hand received thu
worst of it.
