An Intoxlcntrd Hungarian Quarreled Willi the Conductor and W Punched and Kicked by a Little Irlnlimiui Who Ob jeated to a Draft. The passengers on an eloctrio railway car bound from Girardvillo to this town last evening had an exciting tlmo over tho wrangling between a littlo Irishmsn, whoso namocou'dnot be learned, and a stalwart Hungarian. Conduotor Dooley, in chargo of tho car, had remonstrated with tho Hungarian for being tardy in getting on and tho Hun, who was more than half intoxicated, stood in tho doorway and "sawed back." Tho littlo Irish man occupied a seat near tho door and tho cold wind blowing through tho oponing Irritated him. Ho told tho conductor to make tho Hun shut tho door and take a seat, whioh caused the latter to open an argumont with tho passongor. The situation was becoming very warliko whou tho conductorgot tho Hun to sit down uu prevailed upon ino irlsliman to tako a seat at tho other end of tho car. But the Hun was not inclined to bo docile, Ho ssid something aggravating and the littlo Irish, man made a sudden rush and the Hun went spiawllng backwards upon tho seat fiom tho forco of a blow he had received on tho nose. Tho con ductor then intorforod and tho Irishman was induced to go back to his seat. Mr. Hun bo camo yery unruly and when tho car stopped at Lost Creek tho conductor put him off "Iliat'a right! that's right," exclaimed tho little Irishman and ho gave tho Hun four hard kioks as tho latter stepped o'll tho car. Tho weather was bitterly cold and ,the Hun ploaded foi' pormisslon to continue his homeward jouoiey.'llo nrnmUeil t hnlmon KlmsoTf and tfioconductor relented. Tho car did not go far boforo tho littlo Irishman commenced denouncing tho Hungarian and ononandoan. Ho condemned tho town because ho Bald it had nothing but Hungar ians in it. Tho Hun got restless again and the littlo Irishmsn put his hand under his coat tail, declaring ho would shoot. At this point sovnral passengers got hold of tho latter and gavo him somo good advice. Tho Huu got off at No. 2 and there was peace on tho car for tho rest of tho journoy. Call at Holderman's jewelry store before going elaowhero. MiifttUse Anthracite The board of health of New York City has servod notice ontheSteani-HeatingCoinpiiny, the New York Contral and Hudson River Railroad Company and other corporations that they must abate without any further delay tho soft eoal nulsanoe created by their works, at which a mixture of soft andanthra ite coal is burned. The chimneys of the works pour forth clouds of black'smoke laden with grofwo and this it is claimed is injurious to tho public health as it is offensive to pub io cleanliness and decency. It is also claimed that tho uso of high chimneys and "blowors' do not stop tho ovil, as they aro utterly valuo less in dopressed and heavy conditions of tho atmosphere. The Board has declared that soft coal must not bo nsed. It is declared a con venience, but not a necessity, and must give way to public protection. Prof. Barrett, of St. Lawrence county, N.

Upon examining his domains found tiat among tho modern improvements that bahad achiovod was a dumb waiter. Tho main had not boen used to having miniature elovator in his honso, and wot vory ijfuch "tickled" with it. The new house had a basement kitchen and also ono on the ground floor, on which was situated tho dining room. The dummy shaft ran through the dining room. Tho fusiliers man's family did not use tho baeomout kitchen, but so pleased was ho with tho dumb waiter, that ho gavo orders to tho cook to carry tho dishes, whon prepared, down to the basement and send them up via tho dumb waitor. Instead of carrying' up coals from the cellar whon ho found it was necessary to replenish tho baso biimor, tho man, tb get somo uso out of It, would put tho hod on iho olevalor, run up stairs, and then nearly break his back lifting tho coal u from above. But ho was bound to get some use out of his modern Improvoments, and h did. We may savo human lives and limbs nnln tontionally at times by kicking an orango or banana peel from tho sidewalk, or by turn ing down tho nails that aro so frequently and carolossly left protruding through pieces of box lids by tho persons who open them on the pavemonts.

V The approach of Christmas keeps tho young poople and their friends busy arranging docoratlons for their Christmas troes. This activity is especially noticeablo among tho German people. Of all the ecasons in tho yoar tiio ChristmaB season seems to be tho most dear :o thom. The othor day I had an opportunity to seo somo docoratlons mado by u young man named Richard Snyder, resid ing on Wost Coal street. Sovcral weeks' work has brought from his hands sovcral piecos of miniature architecture which ate not only very pleasing to the eye, but also boar ovidonce of rare raechauloal (kill. V Thero are aome people in this town who make of themselves almost unbearable bores. They are nevor satisfied until thoy tell a new arrival the histories of their neighbors for yeirs back. How Mr. B. and his wife havo been separated for so many years and the children havo gone to tho dogs; that Mrs. 0, wears the most abominable of dresses and bonnets and her children are distrusting oxamplos of uuclcanliness; and Mr. E. goes with other women and neglects his family j whilo Mrs. F. goes gadding about among her neighbors, leaving her homo in a filthy con dltlori; or Mrs. U. only contributes 25 cents to the support of the miniitor, the moan thing; etc., etc. We have a number of those busybodies in town, bit fortunately those poisonous shafts fail in effect, as such peoplo are now clascd with tho parf3is sufferers.

It is not tho fault of tho guilty parties in tho case that a murder is not recorded, for they left their victim in a condi tion which lod them to bollovo lie wag dead. The victim was Paul Hernev. a Hunuariaii. Saturday night ho concluded to chaugo his uoaruing nouso, and as hodid not know tho exact location of tho place ho intended to move to John Wars'-ko, John Uko and John Shupock volunteered to show him tho place Iho quartotto slaited from Franov's row. at the east ond of Centre streot, and traveled along tho old rosd at tho foot of tho old Plank Rldgo colliery dirt banks.

He said he believed the motivo was vengeance. Ho had but ninety cciitsand Heaton found that in a romnaut of the clothing the wuuld-bo murderers lud torn. About three weeks ago a Hungarian named Washock Kobo came to town from Green Mountain and was a visitor to tho honso at which Paul Hcrnoy was a boarder. The latter missed gome money and suspected Kobo had taken it. Herncy wan not satisfied with a mere denial of guilt and wanted Kobo to swear. This Kobo did. but refused ta swear that he had nevor stolen anything dur his residence in this co'untry. Hemey there upon nrocured a rone, threw it over a hook. fastoned one end of it about Kobo'sneck, and then drew him up. Kobo wag kept hanging until he was bla k in the face and his neck was badly bruised by the rone. He sued Homey for assault aud battery and tho ease was settled. Homey is positive that tho attack on him was mado by Kobo's friends. Nono of tho assailants havo been arrested, although an activo search for them hag been made since Saturday night by Constable Giblin aud threo special I'olish officers. The celebrated B. & H.
