VIM. Green, living about two miles
east CT Pennington, was kicked in the
right jaw by a mule Saturday after
noon. A physician was summoned,
who found the injured man to be in
critical condition. The force Of the

foot, had frightfully cut the jaw and
neck, penetrating near the Jugular

the doctor pronounced his patient in
a very critical condition.

Luke's hospital, st. Louis, returned
home the last of the week, and on
Wednesday was about town shaking
hands with friends for the first time
since his return. While he is getting
along very well, and will doubtless be
in better health than he has been for
some time past, the Professor is still
opposed to the fad for operations.

essential, he says he would not recon-
mend them except in cases of peces-
sity.

in possession of a Mr.. Thomas. He
liberated all these animals and per-
mitted the law offenders to go with
lecture on the evils of their conduct,
this being their first offense, Mr.. By.

however, to all others who may be
holding fur-bearing animals, that such
conduct is contrary to law, and that
he may not release others so easily.
Jack Parsons Manhattan Come
dams opened a weeks engagement
here Monday night to one of the larg-
est crowds that has been gathered in
this city for many months. For some
time before the performance begun
hundreds of people anxious to gain
admission were crowded about two
ticket sellers. However, all who de-
sired were finally admitted, as the
seating capacity of the tents are I'M
usually large in anticipation of big
crowds. But little space was left
when the great crowd was taken care
of. This is stock company, with
number of plays, and has been gen.
orally pronounced one Of the finest
that has ever visited this city.
