Mrs.
The Century Hose company's team
and driver, Joseph Kneller, enjoy the
distinction of having passed through
fire and survive, though a few remind
ers exist. Tho company, together with
nil outlying companies, responded to
the general alarm early yesterday
morning from Itox No. 22. When they
reached the scene of the fire, after u
quick race, they were assigned to duty
nn Spruce street to fight the fire in the
rear. In order to do their work prop
erly It was necessary to carry the hose
Into Forest, court, beyond the flames
which were shooting across.
There wna only one way and that
led through the flames. Joseph Knel
ler was equal to the task, nnd to his
fearless temerity was duo to a measure
the result of preventing an extension
beyond to lireck court. Harry, the
horse nearest the flame, had tho hair
singed on his left side from head to
tall, and the driver had hie left hand
somewhat blistered. The wagon body
was scorched a little. Otherwise tho
damage amounted to naught.
ALDERMAN1C CASES.

her abuser off. Casey generally prom
ised to mend Ills ways, but has always
failed whenever he drank to excess.
Ills wife had a warrant issued from
Alderman Donovan's office charging
not only the usual beating but that of
threatening to kill. His wife, realiz
ing that affairs were serious, sought
the above protection. Casey was ur
lrsted and at the henrlng was held in
$300 ball for his appearance nt court.
In default of which lie was committed
to jail.
Mrs. Elizabeth Wolf was charged
with making threats by Mrs. Joseph
AVoelkers. Roth reside on this side.

A peculiar case of dislocation of tho
Jaw which hus also all the attributes
of paralysis occurred to William J.
Shug, of 116 South Sherman avenue,
Thursday afternoon. Mr. Shug Is a
miner and works nt the Brlggs mines.
While at work on tho nbovo after
noon In his "chamber" ho had cause
to speak to his laborer. While speak
ing ho suddenly yawned. That did it.
He could neither closed his Jaw nor
speak. His tongue apparently had
gone back on him. Surprised at first,
and then worried, then frightened was
Mr. Shug. He attempted to push his
cantankerous Jaw back Into place. His
efforts were vain, lie loft his work,
nnd coming out proceeded home to
have a physician diagnose the peculiar
fate which had befallen him In a mo
ment. On his way home he met Dr. J, J.
Roberts, and together they wont. Into
the house. A serious, yet ludicrous
conversation ensued, the physlclnn
trying to discover the causes leading
up to the .trouble. Mr. Shug's half'
articulation nt last suggested the
trouble to the doctor, and Inserting his
thumb Into the man's mouth, a slight
movement followed by a click and the
first word he had uttered for nenrly
four hours passed from his mouth.
"Gosh," he exclaimed. The trouble was
that the maxillary muscle in tho low
er jaw had become dislocated.
He laughed and was opening and
shutting his mouth to relieve the
cramped feeling, when suddenly the
same thing happened him. He was re
lieved once more and a splinter placed
In position to prevent further trouble
from that source.

From present Indications tho coming
election will bo tho hottest In years, us
tho Democrats nro divided in two soc
tlons. Each faction Is busy laying lines
for their respective candidates. Both ele
ments havo commenced tho houso to
houso canvass plan In nn effort to get tho
necessary number ot votes. Betting is
spirited and the probabilities nro that a
largo number of suffragists will bo dis
franchised of tho freeman right on tho
11th Inst. Tho outlook for the success oC
tho Republicans Is very encouraging.
Tho paramount question with tho aspir
ing bosses Is: Will tho voto como' out?
There Is a shadow of doubt that the dis
ruption will causo man to steer clear of
tho booths.
