Bat if firs or six man came to tho same bar. and asked for medicine In the way In which most drinker call for beverage.

1 Preparations for tha opening of th forty-Barren th annual exhibition of tbe American Institute oa Vedneeday afternoon at tho vnet amphitheatre, Thlrd-aranae aad Blxty-thlrd street, are now nearly completed, and the prospect Is that the at fairwlUbe tba mioataueoeeefulof lte kind which ha ooearred ln'th history of the InaUtate alnee 1872. la epmmoa with other Institution ot similar aeo pa aad purport, the American Institute ban suffsrad extremely from the pecuniary distreea of the last four or fire year. The exhibition of 1874. 1875, 1 876. and 1877 were not very successful venturer financially, owing to the fact that applications toe pace were more limited thaa during the preceding year, what, the commercial and Industrial In tercets of the eountry were In a flourishing condition.

Ia 1876 particularly, the Philadelphia Exhibition completely overshadowed the more local interest usually taken in the annual expositions of the InaUtate. and thai yearly September show- waa almost a nullity lm the history of the Industrial Th number of application ap to Saturday last had beea, aeeording to the statement of the managers, fully 25 per greater thaa tha whola number for 1877, and aa many intending exhibitors poet pone making arrangements until tha very last moment, the two days before the opening ot the fair are usually days of ceaseless toll ta answering: applications and assigning space. At preaent It appears aa though tho great bat languishing Iron Interest of the eountry would not bo vary fully represented, the department thereunto allotted not being more than half taken. All the various in-duitries I grouped about anil under the general head of working In wood, particularly in It decorative apeet, are, on the other hand, ao fully represented that the managers are already pressed for space, and will probably-have to extend the limits of the department. When It ia eonaldered that goods may be entered one week after tha opening, or nntil Sept; 18, the conclusion ia imperious that the exhibition will approximate to it former preetlge, and that the medals will represent the results of a fall competition.

The 11 heads under which awards are grouped, such aa the great medal of the American Institute, tne medal of progress, the special the medal of taste, the medal of apriority, th medal ot excellence, 4U art too tborouenly laminar to need special reference. Th are, however, eome special medals So awarded this year which: are of novel and 5 peculiar Interest to Inventors and men of science, particularly to engineer. The first is for an approved system of sewer and water-closet ventilation tbe second for an approved sewer-trap; the third for aa approved system or process of refrigeration, aa applied to the preservation of perishable food products during transportation the fourth for an approved method of warming dwellings and offices by heated air fifth, for an approved method of propelling railway cars by steam, compressed air. or other motive power, a substitute for ixth, for an approved exhibit of blank book writing' paper and, seventh, for an approved method of automatically opening and eloslng hatchway doors in connection with elevator used for passengers or freight. The first five of these awards appertain to questions of the highest importance to the public: health or convenience, and ought to call oat a spirit-; ed competlonsmong inventor, while giving the vlait-ors at the fair an opportunity to study the problems with which they are concerned ih their most practical aspect.

SAVAGE FIGHT BETWXKX IT A LI AX AKD IRISH OBSTIXACY OF A WOUNDED MAX. Tha double building, Noa, 18 and 20 Roosevelt-street, has the reputation of being one of tbe worst dens for Italian cut-throats In tbe City. Frequent fights ooeur there, and there Is constant enmity between the Italians and their Irish neighbor.

A long and narrow court-yard runs back tha depth of the building, and in front is a store kept by an Italian named Rofano. At about 11:30 yeaterday morning a number of yonng men were lounginz in front of the building, when one of them, named Thomas Murray, who was intoxicated, jostled George Seudra, an Italian, who stood la the doorway. Seadra struck Murray, and the latter knocked Seudra down. I Murray then pushed over a shatter that was at the store door, whereupon a beer glass was thrown at him from inside the building, and was followed by a large knife, which nearly struck a woman on the other sida of the street, Theae nilaallea were thrown by Rofano, but loat then Seudra came into the store hy a back door aad fired a revolver at Murray. Th latter cried oat "Tnt hot," bat at once ran to seise Seadra.

A be did ao tbe latter fired again. Missing Murray, the bullet graxed the left aide of Christopher Seherloek. of No. 61 James street, who waa one of Murray' companions. Seadra ran Into the back court-yard and disappeared, but the Italians of the building poured oat in largo numbers, and were met by Vurray and about aeven of hia friends.

Although wounded, Murray fonght like a tiger, and the Italians had drawn their knives aa If to use them, when squad of Polios from the Fourth Precinct Station-house appeared and stopped the fight. Seudra eould not at first bo found, but at last he was discovered biding in the cellar. He waa taken to the Fourth Precinct Station-house. While hi friend were fighting to keep back Murray and hia gang Seudra had shaved off hla full black beard and mustache, and tbe complainant eould hardly recognise htm. At tho station-house be waa locked 1 In a cell.

1 and an ambulance was aent for from the Chambers-Street HoepltaL Dr. Davis came with it, and found thit Murray was ahot on the inside of the ria-ht thigh. Tho bullet had passed around the log and waa lodged in tho muscles at the back. The probe failed to reach it, and Murray was therefore placed In the ambulance to be taken to the hoapitaL He mado no objection to goinsr, but 1 as soon aa he waa three blocks from tho station-house ho I fought desperately to get out of the ambulance. He bit the Militant in the hand, itrnek tho doctor, and the services of two polleemeD were required to keep him qniet.

At the hospital he refused to have til wound dreaaed. awore ne needed no aid and would have none, and the doctor waa obliged to let him go. He limped as he walked away, and Dr. Davis believes that the wound may become a serious one for want of treatment. Scherlock'a wound was simply an abrasion of the skin, and needed no attendance.

Murray la a very athletic fellow, and carries meat in Washington Market. He boards at No. 70 James street and was found there last evening. He thinks nothing of the wound, and aaya he will be at his work this morning. AS USC03I3IOS COAL-DEALER.

The surprise which a resident of St. Louis received a few days ago Is. perhaps, unparalleled. It seems he had given an order for coal for use at his house, and the humble dealer from whom he bought it fixed the! price at 0t cents per busheL The dealer gave honest weight, and hla bill waa paid. Soon after the dealer, whose name 1 Ernst, called on hit customer and returned an amount representing a rebate ofj ig cent per bushel on the bill.

Hi explanation I was that when he furnished toe coal be fixed the price at a figure which would allow a reasonable profit over the price he expected to pay his agent for it. When he got hi bill for tbe month from hi agent, however, he found that he bad overestimated the price by.iy cent per bushel, and henre he regarded that difference aa belonging to his customer.
