During drunken brawl at 1902
Huntington avenue about midnight
last night, W. H. Ferguson was ter.
ribly injured, being struck over the
head with a lighted lamp by William

been in progress at the place, which

Ralph Furrow. for about an hour be-
fore neighbor telephoned to the
police station. Officer Pearson went
TO the scene and when he arrived
the finish was at hand.
Ferguson had received a blow on
the head with the lighted lamp. The
lamp broke, the pieces cutting
several ugly gashes in the mans
head. Then the oil blazed up, burn.
ing the victims head. face and neck
frightfully.
The officer placed Allen under ar.
rest and had DR.. Butts summoned to
attend Ferguson. Although the in
juries are of am exceedingly painful
nature, il is probable that they will
not prove dangerous.
ALLEN is a man nearly fifty years
old. He was under the influence of
liquor when taken TO the station
and when asked about the fight said
"I'il burn the -- up" Both men
are employed at the shipyard and
and live at the house in which the
fight occurred.

Suicide On the French stage.

Nothing in the history Of the French
theatre has been so remarkable Of recen,
years as the epidemic Of suicide which
has broken out on the stage during tile
last few months Tn something like
half dozen plays produced about the
same time, and each one written in
complete ignorance of what was being
done BY other authors, the one and only
solution Of the problem has been found
TO be suicide, which, according to our
English notions, is no solution at all.
but mere evasion. Even Frenehmen
have noticed 1t, and writer in the
Journal des Dehats ventures on solu.
ton OF the matter. In France modern
social tendencies lean toward the more
or less complete organization Of the so.
called social life and toward the abau.
donment Of individuality in the inter
ests Of society. But OF late . revolt
against this teaching has been manifest.
and the individual has become conscious
of his separate being The tendency
nowadays is to revolt against the social
idea, and to claim freer play for the in.
dividual, and the theatre, which In Paris
is always little ahead Of reality, shows
that for the present there is no outlet
for the individual who clashes with the
social IDEAL but the great resort Of sui.
eide. This way out Of the difficulty is
in the air, and that is why some half
a dozen plsywrights have simultaneous.
ly hit upon the same solution. ~ ondon

Scotland is more drunken than England

expenditure on drink amounts, therefore,
