Richard Walsh, of Mlnooka, Cams Oat Second Best la a Collision with a Street Car Wladow. Mot fewer than 1.000 persona were at' traded to Terppe's drug store. Cedar avenue and Birch street, at 8 o clock last evening, on the floor of which Richard Walsh, of Mlnooka, lay wel tering In his gore. It was the price of his drunken conduct . on conductor Philip Foy's car. Walsh came to the central city on a Taylor car, got a transfer for the South Side, but delayed in town long enough to invalidate the ticket He boarded Mr. Foy's car and when the fare was being collected offered the obsolete transfer, which Mr. Foy said he could not accept, adding in a civil and cour teous way that it was fifteen minutes too late. Walsh greeted this news with blasphemous epithets, and rather than have any bother with him, Mr. Foy went through the car collecting the rest of the fare and was concluding to let htm ride, as the car was well filled with women, But Walsh was not to be pacified.. He flourished his month's pay and wanted the people understand that he was able to pay if he chose, but all the same he would not satisfy the conductor. Mr. Foy urged him to be quiet and act sensibly; the advice was repaid by Walsh's grapllng with the patient con ductor, who, to defend himself, had to grapple with the passenger. Walsh jostled and jumped around, endeavor ing to upset Mr. Foy, and fell against the window, receiving a cut tibove the right ear, from the broken' glass, that severed a small artery. The blood spurted out and from the loss of It Walsh weakened, and It was thought that he would die. Dr. J. B. Ammann was summoned and Walsh was carried into the drug store. Dr. Manley came, too, and both sewed up the big gash in his head. Rev, George J. Stopper, of St. Mary's church, was sent for. but It was found not necessary to attend to Walsh. In a half hour Walsh revived and was taken home on the 7 o'clock car. North Works Again Shut Dowo. Notice was given to the employes of the North works of the Lackawanna Iron and Steel company yesterday afternoon that the mill would not op erate for a few days and idleness was the order of the occasion last night.

I m posters Who Go 'About the Country Hogging Their Wsy Will Not Fsre Well Here-Matter Considered by the Bosrd of Charities. - - W. T. Smith, who presided at last night's semi-monthly meeting of the Board of Associated Charities, brought up for discussion an apparent abuse to which many charity organizations are being subjected. It Is the securing of transportation on the plea of Indigence by people who are traveling around the country on mere pleasure trips. During the past month, according to the agent's report, fourteen people have been provided with transportation to various points, and three times as many have made application and been refused. In the opinion of Mr. Smith and other members 01 tne board, many of these people are nothing more or less tnan tourists or clever tramps. Dur ing the discussion, Mrs. Duggan stated that she had thoroughly Investigated a number of cases, with the end In view of finding out whether or not they were just such lmposters, and In several in stances sho became satisfied that her suspicions were about correct. One young married couple who came to her were evidently enjoying their wed ding tour at the expense of the poor boards in the various towns along the route 01 xneir journey. Tney openly confessed that they had traveled from Charleston, S. C, In this manner, and naa tne effrontery to ask to be helped oaca nome. Idea Thst They Operate on. These clever tricksters realise that a poor board will rather send an annar ently indigent man or woman to his or- her Home than to allow them to Stay around and become a charge on the district. -Taking advantage of this. many of them, It is firmly believed, ars touring tne country without any ex pense to themselves and with the safe assurance that they will not want as long as there are poor boards. Another important feature of the meeting was a move towards securing a permanent oisinct nurse, urten It Is very difficult to get a nurse in an emer gency and in cases of contagious dis eases it is almost impossible. - By en gaging a woman at a regular salarv this matter can be satisfactorily regu lated. Rev. Rogers Israel, who brought up this subject, reported thai the mat ter had been suggested to him by two weuuny men, wno as mucn as Intl mated tnat tney would be willing to stana tne expense or the experiment for at least a year. Other cities. Rev. Mr. Israel stated, have found it aim. cessful. The nurse will be expected to De at once a nousexeeper and an at tendant to the sick and when not em- ployed in any particular case can go. icwi instructing negligent people In sanitary matters, so as to help them ward off disease. On motion of Mr. Gibbons, the president and secretary were empowered to act in the matter. Report of the Agent. The report of th agent. Mrs. W n.

REAL COSTLY DINNERS. Msjor Handy Tells of a Few That Were fixoecdlngly swell. From the Chicago Times-Herald. Somebody writes to an English week ly paper correcting the widely pub lished statement that young Mr. Wan amaker recently gave a dinner In Paris at a cost of 220,000. It seems that the jtross cost of the dinner was under W400 for twenty plates, which, although large sum, Is not unusual for dinners of the kind with rare wines. Some years ago I attended a dinner in honor of Henry Dlxey, the comedian, at Del monlco's, the price of which was $2S a plate, or only Ave dollars less than the charge for the Wanamaker dinner. The most expensive dinner, however, that I ever attended was the one given by the Fellowship club, of Chicago, on the day of the dedication of the grounds and buildings of the 'World's Columbian exposition. It was served at Kinsley's, and among the partici pants were the .vice president of the United States, four or Ave members of the Supreme court, many senators and representatives of congress, the papal delegate) 8atoll, Cardinal Gibbons, the uniformed representatives of a dozen foreign governments and many persons of prominence in politics. literature. Journalism and trade. The price of this dinner was 160 a plate, but that Included the cost of music,-very unique decorations and a handsome souvenir. The muslo was supplied by the Mexican band. The souvenir was a fine glass of Bohemian manufacture, beautifully ornamented. It was used to drink the first toast of the evenlnr and then taken away by an. attendant, to be presently returned, dranbed In cotton and boxed for safe and convenient car- nan from the banauet table to the home or lodging place of the owner. Heart : Failure. Often first manifested by ex treme general debility, with sudden reactions for the better; a general dying out of the fires of life, that brighten up at inter vals, giving hope of returning health, but eventually subside, go out on the spot, and another " dropped dead on the street " is reported. A general collapse of the great vital centres, due to a lack of sufficient nourishment is the cause. In such cases take Bovinine and live to join the great array who today sing its praise. Dr. P. B. Carpenter, of 430 Friend ship St., Providence, says, "I have never seen a case of gen eral debility which Bovinine failed to cure, when taken as I directed." It cures in every in stance where mal-nutrition is experienced.- It is not a medi cine, but. a powerful condensed food that makes blood, flesh and bone, and by invigorating the life-generating organs dispels disease. ' A very expensive and more elaborate entertainment was that given to the Clover club, of Phlladephla, on the oc casion of Its visit to Chicago as the guest of the late James W. Scott. That entertainment lasted three days, but the dinner alone, which was the crown ing feature of . a royal welcome, cost $2,500. For the annual dinner of the Clover club In Philadelphia, which is an event of national interest, the mem bers are assessed about 230, on the average, but I have known the assess ment to be much higher. SOME PLAIN FIGURES. . The Nervous-Looking Msn's Mission Was From the Chicago Tribune. a spare, nervous-looking man, ar- rylng a small valise in his hand, went into one of the leading hotels and ad dressed himself to the clerk, "I Bfp Vf ill iira a. raw fintntn na a nan- wlper," he observed. - ies," replied me notei clerk, wno happened to be at leisure and in a mood to be gracious.

"i aon t tninK l nave," said the clerk. "It Is worth your while, sir," rejoined the man In blnrlc. innnlcln. ,o rna.Hu and hurriedly. "There are In this town today proba bly not less than 200 hotels that habitu ally use potatoes to stick their pens In. Each one takes a fresh potato every morning. That uses up 200 potatoes a dav.
