CUT HIS
FATHER
|N-LAW.

A cutting ARRAY occurred at 81 Corliss
street last evening. the victim being John
McNabb, so years old, whose assailant
was Peter McCuilaugh. his son-in-law.
McCullaugh had been drinking hard for
several days. getting himself into such a
condition Of frenzy that last Saturday his
wife locked herself in a bedroom to
avoid abuse.
Last night he was cazier than ever be-
cause OF drink and started in TO do mis-
chief by producing a knife, making such
threats that his wife and children ran out
81 the house.
Mr. McNabb accompanied BY two neigh
bors entered the tenement with the In
tention of persuading McCullaugh 10 be-
come more peaceable.
Instead Of pacifying the lord OF the
house McNabb added TO the fury OF the
inebrlate.
McCullaugh turned upon his fsther-in-
law, cutting him across the left cheek
and ear. almost severing the latter.
In the struggle which ensued between
the principals Mr.. McNabb's coat was
slashed I'm several places; but before any
more wounds could be inflicted the old
gentleman used his fists TO such good
effect that he knocked MoCullaugh silly
and escaped from the premises.
DR.. Marston attended the wounded man
while Sergt. Duffy and Patrolman War
hurst went In search OF McCullaugh, who
had taken refuge in Mr.. MoNabb's house.
After a spirited fight they subdued
McCulaugh and took him to the Second
station.
McCullaugh was arraigned In the Sixth
district court today on the charge OF an
assault with a knife upon Hector j.
McNabb. He pleaded not guilty and was
held In $1,000 for trial next Friday.

MRS. PH1LIP CAT

Il should have been glad to be president II the
trades school had gone through. but without 1t I
do want the Office"
Nothing in Mrs Lyons club life has become her
like her demeanor during this turn IN the tide OF
her fortunes, and II hardly added 10 the favor
able impression which she had made when Mrs.
Dow said:
Ladies' as 7 have heard that some unpleasant
personalities have been INDUCED in during the
course OF this convention, I wish TO say that 10
nv certain knowledge all the candidates for Office
at this election were in every way worthy Of your
confidence Both those elected and those not
elected are women Of whom any federation may
be proud
AS soon as the results Of the election had been
disposed Of steps were taken TO make the next
one a little easier. The tellers had worked until
8 o'clock in the morning. and they wished to save
future officials any such dIsagreeabie duty.
1t was an infringement Of the Eight Hour law
said Mrs Milton Northrup. who had been one OF
the INSPECTORS Of election. and could not be pre-
vented under our constitution. which requires
a secret ballot. with only ballot box and only
one voter in the room a time. The people who
voter would have 10 deposit her wrap, gloves and
bag on chair table. that she would take her own
time TO mark the ballot. and that she would in
many cases put her name on it, thereby ne
cessitating its destruction and the filing out of
ballot
The result OF Mrs Northrup's plea combined
with the bitter experience Of he voters. Will be
that at TIE next election there will he many
ballot boxes as may he required Mrs. Dow suC
gested the abolition OF the secret ballot, as they
