Shelton arose and offered a prayer. After that the knives and fork were taken np, and the appetite was allowed full away. The tables were all full and the witling nd'pretty 'waitresses could be seen running to and fro serving a fast aa possible those who were hungry. After about two hour had been pent doing justice to the meal, the tables were cleared away and seats placed in their stead, which were taken possession of by the audience, and aa soon as comparative order could be restored, Wahle'a band, which was stationed on the stage, played some excellent election of music, and then followed the OLX-TLMB KBMINUCXHCBS. These informal exercise were opened by a short and neat speech by Mr.

Orlando Allen, President of the Executive Committee, who was pleased to see so many old settlers come together to indulge in a cup of tea and have a social chat He said that the funds obtained from the festivals had always been put to good use helping the needy. The Old Set tlers' Festivals, the speaker said, have always proved a success since thq first inauguration, and be hoped that they would continue to do so as long as there was old folks" enough to patronize them. Rev. Dr. John C.

Lord then came forward and related some very funny anecdotes of his long and eventful acquaintance with Buffalo. Mr. Daniel Bowen remembered as far back as the Winters of 1837 and 1838, when old LLako Erie was clear of ice, and he saw boats P.A 1 Atu I nAlV 1 enter and leave this port every month during those years. Mr. E.

S. Hawley told about arriving at Black Rock In a two-bprse wagon from Schenectady, after a tiresome ride of three weeks, in the year 1824. He used to pass his youthful hours in fishing at Scajaquada Creek fpr bull-heads. In the year mi8, Mr. O.

G. Steele came to thisci'and Ince that time he ha had the pleasure oi seeing a great many oi the ins and out of the old Queen City." After hearing from a number of other old citizens the assemblage broke up, and the people went to their respective homes, bearing with them pleasant recollections of the few hours of enjoyment they had received from the Tea Party of 1873.

Annaal Feetlval the Old Settlers of With each recurring year the goodly throng Of people whom the frost of three or four score Winters and the sun of three or four core Summer have silvered and mellowed into that' age where they find a is faction in arraying themselves apart from the yonnger portion of the community under the honored title of "Old Settlers" gather within the generous and democratic walls of St. James Hall for a grand frolic Allot the arrange-menU ar3 made sans formality, and each one's particular aim is, to have a "good: old fashioned time." This I the teason when the veteran combine to show their pretention descendants What nn really: is. During all the rest of the year young blood flows in the uppermost current of society, actuating and stimulating all en joyments and divcrtisements, but with the month of January come an awakening of the forefathers.

And sneh an awakening 1 The old fashions are revived old customs are made respectable old atylesiof dress are and in reality grandpa and wvantihrtaa a pa loerl nv ttkf 4hn ttma grandma are Society's leader for the time being; They walk with firm and elastic step their, eye twinkle and snap with merriment; their mouths are wreathed in miles; their bearlDg isf suave and agile, and their enjoyment) of the pleasures of the hour is evidenced by a spirit of hilarity that bubbles and overflows in its generous quality until It; Infect the dazed "children who stand U-on in Venice," and cause among them such a ripple of happy sensations that they, too, are Srawri within the pleasant circle, and made to feel that the old folks" of whom they ire wont to speak, with the prefix only," are by no means the enemies of genuine en- oymenlfc i Yesterday was the first day of the Tenth Annual Festival of the Old Settlers, and keeping with the usual feus to in the open ing of the festive period was celebrated by the tea Party at the St. James. Memory recalls with interesting readiness many of the inci dents that have occurred within the decade tbAt has elapsed since the first Old Settlers' clival was held in the Old American Hal. Doubtless a large number of old residents wKo were present at the festival of .1363 were present night. As Our reporter was walking about the hall last evening, he Chanced overhear a remark "of to dropped braa old'ladv and trentleman In conver sation, The eentleman was saying 'that he had attended the first festival ten years ago, but, continued lie, I am afraid I will not live to Sue many more." answered the Old lady; "I saw you at ge first Tea Party, and I 'saw many others fiat I do not see now." --VJV "1 er, bowl many or the pretty girls Who were waitresses then are here to-night as wives and mothers." i I (ieneratlons will come and go and times will change, but t'uere is that about the Old Settler' Festival that will cause it to live for ages.

A Man Assailed by Fellow Work' man and Nearly Killed, at the 0y cess and Ilydrocev Csus Works. The qnlet which has pervaded' our city In criminal matter for the past! tar monUks was broken yesterday by occurrence of an brntal sickening in Its which from present appearances wlll proba bly have a fatal result. I THB CIRCCMSTAKCB of the case are as follows Yesterday after noon shortly before one o'clock two men tat the employ o'fj the Oxygen and Hydrogen Gas named Patrick. Brown and James FrU pa trick, became involved in dispute while, engaged in the performance of their duties.

Tine manner in' which the quarrel originated is in doubt, bnt from statements! gathered by onr reporter it appears that the men were at; work near bench of retorts in the northeast corner of the Gas house. Fitzpatrick was using a shovel which did not belong to him, and working at the time under Brown's directions. One of Uue foremen while passing reprimanded FlUpat- rick for using the shovel without authority; words followed between Fltspatrick aad Brown, when, without any warning, the for iron wrench and I struck roWn three times. The first blow made a terrible gash three inches in length, running diagon ally across the forehead, just befowthe ecalpi The blant edge of the wrench penetrated te the bone, the! blood bursting forth in torrents. One might think that this would have been sufficient to have appalled even the most brutish of men, but not content? Fitzpatrick struck a second blow which fell wifiii crushing on his victim's head, cutting through scalp and flesh to the sknll, tearing the whole of the scalp, leaving It banging In bloody fragments.

Brown staggered under the second blow, and as be felrFJtzpatrick.with devcliah ferocity, struck the third blow, which took effect under the left ear, making a cut clean to the bone two inches in length, the force of the blow throwing Brown ngiinat the furnace, burning his arm seriously. PiTZPATRICKBAN from the premises immediately, and several oftte men who heard the noise of the affray picked Brown np and removed Llin to the' engine-room. Medical aid was summoned und the sufferer's' wounds dressefi, after which be was carried to his house, No. SO Jackson streets For several bonrs after the accident Brown lay in a comatose state, arousing sufllcicntly ai six o'clock to make his anti-moriem deposition to Coroner Vaughan. At a late hour last- evening our reporter 'visited his residence In company with the attending physi, cian, and found him wake and conscious.

He was unable to state why Fitzpatrick attacked him, saying that notblDg which bad passed between them could warrant the act. His condition at present is extremely critical, and should inflammation of the brain set In, the result Will probably be fatal. THB TOOL used by FiUpatHck fb bis murderous assault was an iron wrench 18 inches in length and weighing about 7 pounds. It is knowu among mechanics as an wrench, and, as proved yesterday, could be made a dangerous weapon in the hands of a desperate man. TTJB ARREST.

After comrrfitiing the FiUpatrick re mained in the neighborhood for some time, and at last, acting, as it is understood, upon the advice of a citizen of somewhat extensive acquaintance In the vicinity, and by the aid money from the same, source, left for Canada. In the meantime the people were in blissful ignorance of the whole affair bavin? occurred lrj the building but few sons in the vicinity were aware of it, and hone Of them considered it of su Indent importance to give the information. At half post four o'clock, however, word was xonveyed to Captain Frawley of the First Precinct, and he immediately despatched Sergeant Flynn and Patrolgtan Hazel in pursuit, but it was too late, Fitzpatrick having made good bis BSCAPB TO CAB ADA. Word was' sent to Captain Dickerson of the Fifth Precinct, and he immediately despatch Specials Riley and Henderson to the ferry with orders to keep a sharp look-out for Fitz patrlck. The officers remained at their post' until the boat crossed from Canada for the last time and were about turning away despair when who should step bnt Fitzpatrick timself, he having returned for the purpose of ascertaining how much mis chief he had, dope, with a view to making a permanent abiding place in the Dominion shonld circumstances require it.

The specials did not wait for the formality of an Introduction, but took him in charge and conveyed ulm to Sation No. 5, where be was locked np for the bight. He "111. probably be removed the jail tb-day to await the result of his attempt to follow the fashion of the Buffalo A rare and Juicy sensa tion is promised! the boys at the Academy next week Monday and Tueiday evenings lib the prelentaluonl of Ned iBuntline'a play en titled The Sejant of tljie Ifrairie jjOP-Red Deviltry as it Is." The Chicago Journal at recent date say "Colonel Judson's suc cess tfas last night the scene jof a most ex: traordinary character, and one, in which the audience bore qwite as prominent a feature as did the pcenjjans of the etagfe.
