FELL FROM A TROLLEV CAR.
Michael i:. Hughes Itccclvcil Very
Severe Injuries.
Michael K. HuBhes, of 130 South KI1
more avenue, was badly Injuicd last
evening about .M0 by falling from a
inovlKS street car. The accident hap
pened on North Main avenue, Just op
posite Dr. F. C. Hall's, nd was due to
Hughes' standing on the tear platform
cif the car.
He hnd been drinking and the motion
of the car may have caused him to
lose his balance, thus throwing him
to the pavement. He was removed to
the West .Side hospital and Dr. W. A.
l'alne examined him.
It was found that Hughes has a
liroken collar bone on the right side
nnd a badly cut face near the left
temple. Hughes was afterwards re
moved to his home, his wound3 having
been bandaged.
nuuLEVun people at law.
Two families, residing In Bellevue,
l.ave become so far estrange! as to go
to law. Two brf thers. John S. pnd
Thomas J. Jones, quarreled this week
nnd last evening John S. had Thomas
J. arrested and brought before Aldet
man Moses for threatening to "dis
embowel" him at the Hist opportunity.
It seems that a dividing fence between
the two properties of the men Is the
source of the trouble. John S. Jones
resides on Archbald street, cornpr of
Storr's avenue.and his brother Thomas
J. resides in the rear of John on Storr'a
avenue. Thomas J. Jones built the
fence and trespassed a foot upon the
property of John, his brother, hence
the disagreement. Thomas was held
In $300 ball for his appearance in court.
John T. Jones, of South Main avenue,
became his bondsman. John It. Jones,
eon of Thomas J. Jones, was oIfo
brought before the alderman for
threatening to show how a "trigger
could be pulled" and that if William,
son of John S. Jones should attempt
to remove the fence that he (Joh'i It.)
would make It a "funeral and hanging
affair" of it. John R. Jones was held
in $1100 ball to answer at court. An
other case which grew out of the orig
inal trouble will be file charge of as
pault and battery agaliv&t Mrs. Lucy
Jones, wife of Thomas J. Jones and
Mrs. Mary Jane IUehiareK daughter
of said Thomas. John S. Jones charg
es these women with hurling stones at
him to the injury of his head, face,
back and arms. Mr. Jones fears seri
ous bodily injury and takes this step
ns a means of personal safety. Mrs.
Jones is very ill and was unable to
appear for a hearing lat evening.

Simpson Methodist church gave a very

was not considered serious. She left
Immediately for Danville and leached
there a short time before Mr. Battle
passed nway. Mr. Battle had been an
Inmate of the asylum over nine years.

MULDERRY STREET PAYE.
Work Will Ho tiommenced tho Latter
I'nrtofNcxt Week.
P. K. Qulnlan, manngcr of the Co
lumbia Construction company of Hyra
cuse, with the company's foreman,
George AV. Lamson, was in the cltv
yesterday arranging tho preliminaries
for tho work of paving Mulberry
street.
He stated that his company expects
to begin Its contract tho latter part of
next week. Yesterday was spent In
completing negotiations for stone,
sand and cement and In the hiring of
help. He also visited two or three
places which have heen offered ns
avnllnble sites for their plant. He had
not made up his mind which ho would
select, but will do so early In the week.
It Is the purpose of the company to
erect n, permanent plant here, ns It ex
pects to do tho biggest share of the as
phalting that will be done In this lo
cality hereafter. The laying of the as
phalt proper cannot be done until ten
days after the concreto Is down, so it
enn bo seen there will need be no delay
because of the plant not being renclr.
Tho company has a portable idant.
but as there Is plenty of time to erect
one here, and It Is desirous of estab
lishing here a permanent plant, the
portable one will not be brought into
use.
The manner of carrying on the work
will bo left to the discretion of City
Engineer Phillips. It Is likely, Mr.
Qulnlan says, that work will be begun
at both ends of the street simultane
ously. The company is willing to nut
on as many hnnds as can be worked
advantageously.
FAKIR COMES TO QRIEF.
Xot Quito ns Sharp ns His Stock in
Trndp, (lirnp llnzors.
Patrolman Martin Gurrcll yesterday
picked up a dapper youth who was go
ing nbout the AVest Side offering razors
at surprisingly low prices. The razors
bore the brand of a well known Shcf
lleld firm, whose razors are listed at
$3 and $4 apiece. This fellow was of
fering them for 50 cents.
Ills scheme wns to go Into a saloon
and after telling a hard luck story
about being a barber on his uppers
produce a razor and ask for a bid on
It. If he could not get anybody to
make an. offer he would make a llgure
himself, sometimes putting the price
down as low ns 50 cents.
AA'hen examined at he central police
station thirteen razors, all new, were
found on his person. He said he was
not guilty of stealing but admitted
that the razors were not what they
seemed to be and that 50 cents was all
and more than they were worth. Ho
was held on the charge of selling with
out a license", that a further Investiga
tion of his case might be made.
