DIES IN MID.AIR DUEL
ON A NARROW TRESTLE

New York, March 2.-On a trestle,
not more than four feet wide, fifty feet
above the level Of the river, at the foot
Of East Thirty first street, two men
battled for half an hour with their fists
yesterday. A hundred spectators
watched the combat from below, not
man among them having the courage
to Chamber up the ladder and interfere
in the struggle, which, it seemed, could
not end but in the death Of one man
or both unless it was stopped:
ward and forward along the tracks Of
the trestle in fighting and wrestling
on the very brink of the height. A
dozen times it seemed to the watchers
below that the two were about to top
pile over the edge into the river, but
every time the pair would fight to their
feet again and resume the battle in
mad scorn of their danger:
Finally one of the men fell from
blow on the point of the jaw, and the
other stood over him waiting for him
hand feebly, as tho for quarter, and got
to his feet. He staggered a few steps
along the structure and fell in a heap.
The other was at his side in a moment
and signaled for help to those below.
A dozen men scrambled up and found
the PROSTATE man dead. ="
The victim was Frederick Moon, 80
years old, a laborer. His opponent was
Patrick McAssey, an engineer. Meas
sey was arrested. He told the police
that Moon! had been annoying him al
afternoon and at last had drawn {
knife. That started the fight.
7 McAsey was charged with man
slaughter. 1t is believed that Moon :
skull was fractured against an iron raj
| as he fell.

many interests seeking more informa,

BANDITS BATTLE
COSTS 4 LIVES
Finnish Robber Holds Crowd and
Police at Bay for
Hours.

Helsingfors, Finland, March 2.--The
pursuit Of the bandits, who last Mon
day night entered the Russian State
bank here, killed the guardian and Sc
cured $37 500, has resulted in another
highly dramatic incident and cost four
more lives at Tammersfors, where two
of the fugitives were cornered. One OF
the bandits got possession OF the town
hall and held it for hours, but finally
was subdued by a stream of water dl-
rected by zfre1nen.
While Commissary of Police Balushin
was examining the two captives, one of
them grabbed revolver from the chief
Of police and killed Balushin. The
bandit then dashed upstairs, where he
barricaded himself in room command
| ing the stairs and lobby and the streets
outside. He held the police for three
hours, meanwhile haranguing from a
window, crowd of thousands Of per-
sons, many of whom were in sympathy
with his socialistic speeches. Two po-
:licemen who tried to pick off the des-
perado from a house opposite, were
killed by the bandit, who was an excel
lent marksman. ~>'-, - .,
After all other resources had been ex-
hausted the firemen were called out and
poured flood of water into the win
dow. simultaneously picked band of
police and firemen stormed the stairs.
One was killed and nine were wounded
before the bandit, who fought with a
| big knife, could be overpowered.
The robber, who is Dorpat black
smith, boosted of membership in the
Baltic revolutionary committee and said
the robbery Of the Russian State bank
was committed to swell the revolution

the booty was recaptured. 4 49,.

ACTRESS As LAWYER
PROSECUTES ANN0YER


New York. March 2.-In order to rid
herself of the fervid communications
sent to her by an admirer, Edna Wal
lace Hopper has had Max Hilderbrant,
a musician, put under $500 bonds to
keep the peace for a period Of three
months The actress was her own law
yer and conducted the case in manner
to attract considerable attention in the
Jefferson market police court, where
her annoyer was arraigned.
Miss Hopper, after she had won the
case, proposed to the attorney for the
letter-writer that if he was sent tc
Bellevue to have his sanity inquired
into she would withdraw the charge OF
disorderly conduct, but this was re
fused, and as the defendant was unable
to produce the bonds he will doubtless
be sent to Blackwell s island for a per
iod of time in which he can think the
matter over.

INJUNCTION HELPS
. ST. CLOUD ELECTION

St. Cloud, MIMI, March "A sensa-
tional scene was enacted at meeting
of the board of education last evening
over the election of school superin-
tendent. A majority of the board was
opposed to the reelection of j. A. Gran
ston, the present incumbent.
After rollcall, Director H. @. Erwin
caused an injunction, issued from the
district court, to be served on Direc-
tors Hennemann and Koshiol, claiming
that they were not qualified to vote
for the reason that they had removed
from the wards in which they were
elected. These two directors were op-
posed to Cranston. The board then
proceeded to elect Cranston, the vote
standing to 4, but the president de-
clined to declare him elected till he
had secured legal advice.
The injunction proceedings are to be
heard in the district court March l6.
Bitter feeling has been created in the
matter owing to the accusation that
saloon men were endeavoring to con-
troll the board and were opposed to
!Cranston for the reason that the super
intendent had taken an active part in
the movement for Sunday closing of
saloons.

cheerfuIness at the Table.

An old lady who looked as though
she might have belonged to the Sun
shine society all her life, was asked
by a friend for the secret of her never
failing cheerfulness. Her answer con-
tains a suggestive lesson for parents.
Il think" said the clever old lady. lit
is because we were taught in our fam
lily to be cheerful at the table. My
father was lawyer with large GRIM
inal practice: his mind was harrassed
with difficult problems all the day long,
yet he always came to the table with
a smile and a pleasant greeting for
everyone and eXerted himself to make
the table hour delightful. All his pow
ers to charm were freely given to enter
tain his family. Three times q day we
felt this genial influence and the effect
was marvellous. If a child came to the
table with cross looks, he or she was
quietly sent away to find a good boy
or girl. for only such were allowed to
come within that loving circle. We
were taught that all petty grievances
and jealousies must be forgotten when
mealtime came, ana the habit of being
cheerful three times a day. under all
circumst ances mad its effect on even
tire most Sullen temper. Grateful as
I am for the training received in my
childhood home, l look back upon the
table influence as among the best of my
life"
