JOSEPH YANNO HAS
CONCUSSION OP BRAIN
$he of the Accused Asallants of
' Michael Volpe, Who Is at Emer
gency Hospital with a Bullet
Wound, Is in n More Dangerous
Condition Than the Latter Sequel
of Shooting on Dundaff Street
1 Which Lends to Arrest of Louis
'' Firrlc, Who Is Committed to Jail.
An untoolced for sequel has developed
.com the shooting: anions Itnllans near
the eloetrlu lighting station in the rear
of Diindaff street on the night of Pe
ueinber 11.
Joseph Ynnno, who with Frnnk Mon
flcdl. was released from the county Jail
on ball, Saturday, on the charge of
hoothiR Michael Volpe, ut present a
jmtleiit tit Emergency .hospital,. Is .now
the worse victim of the mlxed-up uh
snult. lie 1m sufCerlnpr from What ap
pears to bo a. concussion of tlic brain,
hie to being felled with n club or u
blow from the butt of a revolver during
the exchange, lie Is in a Btupor at his
home In the-Itutlan settlement on rjel
niont street, and bis condition generally
was such last night that Louis IMrrle,
nf Hospital street, who was Volpe's
companion in the lively doings, was ar
rested and jailed to await the result of
Vanno's Injtirks.
Plrrle was taken before Alderman
Jones by I'onstnble Nuary lust night
mid after a healing was committed to
i he city Jail. If Yanno Is no better to
day, Attorney Joseph Hrciuiuu, who Is
bis couiiM'l, will ask that Plnie be I'oni
inltted to the comity Jail, without ball,
to await the outcome of YiiiinoV condi
tion. The Tribune Indicated after the shoot
Ins: thai I ho defonsp of Vanno and Men
ded! would be self-defense: that they
were sot upon by Volpe and t'ltrle and
beaten. This was proven at last night's
healing, ulien .Ylonlledl' told a story
that laid all the blame upon Volpe and
1'lrric.
Monlledi s.tld that he and yanno 1-rt
the saloon wlnne they had been playing
cauls and drinking nnd making their
exit through the bank door started for
their homes on lielinont street. When
they reached the electric lighting sta
tion. Yanno slopped to light his pipe.
Monlledi continued at a moderate pace,
and when ho looked behind for Yanno,
hi sow two men attacking the latter.
When he reached the trio Yanno was
prostrate. He hud been felled with a
dub or u blow from a revolver, and as
he lay on the ground Plnie was kick
ing him.
Dr. W. A. Dixon, who attended Yanno
the day after the assault, among other
things, closing a scalp wound, testified
that he was again called to attend
Volpe on .Sunday. He found him suffer
ing with symptoms characteristic of a
re-action from a brain contusion, which
was produced by the blow that felled
him. There was a possibility, the phy
sician said, or serious complications
that sometimes follow in such cases.
What turn Yanno's case might take the
could not say positively Tor a' few days
at least. On the strength of this testi
mony, Plnie was committed without
bnil.
Yanno suffered considerably while lie
ivas in jail awaiting the result or Volpe's
bullet wound, and had to have the at
tendance of the jail surgeon. Since he
came home. Saturday, he has suffered
from severe pains In the head and sleep
lessness. These symptoms are charac
teristic of convalescence in a case like
Yanno's, but are sometimes followed
by dangerous complications. Until the
danger of these Is removed, Plnie will
be kept conllned.
The healing last night developed that
there is considerable feeling' between
the Italians who live on lielinont street
and those whose homes are In the col
ony on the West Side hill. Evidences of
this cropped out frequently during the
meeting In Alderman Jones' otllce.

STOCK ALL TAKEN.
The New Bank Projectors Are Beady
for Organization Meeting to Be
Called in a Few Days.
The new bank project of Carbondale
business men Is an established cer
tainty and Its success seems positive
In the face of the assurances which
have been received from among those
whose support was sought.
All of the proposed $100,000 of capital
has been subscribed. The last sub
scription was received Saturday even
ing. It was remarkable and extra
ordinary, the enthusiastic response the
project met with. This enthusiasm
spread with electric swiftness and It
was soon apparent that all prospective
stockholders could not be accommo
dated. If there was a bigger Issue It
could be disposed of, as there are some
desirous and anxious of subscribing,
who could not get any stock. The avid
ity with -which this bank stock offer
was seized leads one to comment how
different Is the reception that la in
variably given a factory project or In
dustrial enterprise of any sort that
seeks an entrance here.
The next move in the project will be
the calling of a meeting for organiza
tion and the application for a charter.
This meeting will be called within a
few days, when the holiday business
relaxes somewhat.

theatrical critic, speaking of the mer

"People want to laugh. To do this,
go to the theatre this week where the
Wills Brothers are playing 'In Atlantic
City.' I went. I laughed and It was a
lasting laugh; one of those kind that
when I think of It now It brings a
smile of remembrance that will cause
me to go and seo it some time again.
Being assured of two hours of pleasure,
I am taking no risk of being disap
pointed, and with a majority feeling as
I do, the manager of the organization
will benefit financially. Give the people
the show and they'll come. This is the
secret of theatrical success."

NEW TYPHOID CASE.
An Infant Child of Wellington Hobbs

since December 1, was reported to Sec
retary Shepherd, of the board of health,

The patient is the eleven-months-old

confirmed the diagnosis.

Christmas Gossip.
One woman said: "Oh, if I could only allow $5 apiece
for each of my thirty presents! But I cant, and a dollar-and-'
a-half or two dollars at the most won't buy anything." And
g she wound up by saying: "I hate Christmas. That
H woman is clearly wrong. Her spirit and feeling are wrong ;
H her mental attitude is wrong and her eyes are wrong.
j This is the time of year when material things give way
J to spiritual. It isn't the gift or what it costs that counts; it's
v the spirit in the gift. Being remembered is what brings joy,
S not the extravagance of the remembrance. There are thous
5J ands of gifts here for $1 and $2 as anybody who uses his
5 legs and his eyes can see.
Women's ,
Neckwear
The dainty little stocks that
women are wearing now make
lovely Christmas gifts. Ready
made they cost less than if made
at home. 50c, 75c, $1.00.
Tucked stocks,with long ends
that cross at the back and come
around to fasten or tic in front,
are among the prettiest.

kerchiefs ; 9c each, or $1.00 a
dozen; 50c a half dozen for
new, fresh, perfect Handker
chiefs that usually sell for 15c
to 25c each.
Not a thing wrong with them
even the hem is the fine nar
rov kind that everybody wants.
Don't ask us how wc got
them it's enough that they're

Furs
Some men are so skilled in
the feel and look of furs as to
be able "'to tell almost the de
grees of latitude and longitude
in which the animal lived.
It is such skill combined with
the advantages of an enormous
business, that enter into our
furs. We sell as merchants,
and are satisfied with a mer
chant's profit. Hut the skill
used in the selection of our furs
is the same quality which makes
great furriers famous.
So our furs are fine skilful
