urriir mi inni in rr I Kttflt iVAo AbbAllL I He Invited a Fight and Got It Death Kate Increasing Twice Staltbed in the Keck Current Event Club. OTHER WEST SIDE MATTEBS Arthur Keene, the erstwhile detective of the Men's union of Green Ridge, was again in trouble Saturday night. Ever since, it is said, he was released from further connection with the reform organization he has been looking for just what he got on the night mentioned. Shortly after he and Mr. Thomas Cosgrove, proprietor of a North Main avenue hotel, indulged in a little altercation, he went into Jane's hotel on Jackson street and created a disturbance, it is claimed, by engaging in an argument with a man named Powell, upon whom it is further alleged, he pulled a gun, but was prevented from firing it by a certain number of men who also occupied the barroom at the time.

A warrant was issued for his arrest at the time and the document placed in the hands of an officer, but what disposition was made of the case has not been since learned. His next escapade was on Saturday night when he entered the night lunch wajson on North Main avenue. There he became abusive and interfered with the enjoyment and comfort of the pa trons of the place. He demonstrated an almost insatiable desire to "do everybody, thereby claiming that he was able to thrash anybody within sight. Stepping out onto the sidewalk at 1 o'clock yesterday morning he in vited any man in the wagon at the time to come out and that he would whip him.

He was accommodated however, when a resident of the North Knd of the city, who was sitting on a stool eating a sandwich unconcerned ly, in the meanwhile listening to the amateur detective's boast, told Keene that he could not whip a mouse. "Suppose i you step out here," said Keene to the man who had addressed him. Before the man was able to obey the suggestion Keene had returned to the wagon only to continue the argu ment. Without another word from the North Knd citizen he drew back his clenched right fist and dealt Keene a vicious blow in the jaw, which drove him into space and with such force as to shake the little kitchen on wheels, In almost an instant after being struck an awful crash of falling glass was heard. It was Keene's head going through one of the colored window panes in the side of the wagon.

As quickly as he could get himself together. Keene, without another word, walked out of the place. He had not gone many feet away before he was met by the patrolman on the beat who had heard the noise of the falling glass and hurried to the scene. The, pro prietor of the wagon, a young man named Morris, was also at his heels and demanded payment for the broken window pane. It was agreed that Keene was to pay what he could then and the balance later.

He hand erl the lunch wagon manS2, all he possessed at the time, and promised to secure the remainder on batur ilav night next. Because of such an Keene was allowed to depart, Morris deciding not to prosecute. SLASHED WITH A KNIFE. Two men, both residing on Back slreet, Bellevue, have been unfriendly lcr some time, all because of a disagreement over coal mined in the colliery where they are or have been employed. It is said that whenever there was a favorable opportunity offered an attempt would be made to inllict injury upon the other.

The chance came on Saturday night last when one of the men was stabbed by the other whose nationality is said to be French. The other is claimed to be an Italian. The latter alleges that he was returning home after having made purchases at a grocery store in the neighborhood of his home and had a number of packages under his arms when the Frenchman came stealthily along behind him. Before he could get away or defend himself, he says, his assailant pulled out a knife and buried the blade into his neck, intlicting two wounds that while not considered dangerous they are exceedingly painful. The Frenchman afterwards fled and had not been captured up to a late hour last night though there is a warrant out for his arrest.

The wounded man came to the West Side station house and told his story, substantiating it by exhibiting his bleeding injuries to. the officers. DEATHS STILL OCCURING. Mrs. Ann A.

Few deaths have recently occurred among the young where so much public sympathy for the afflicted parents has been exhibited.

He was walking and while nearing his home he slipped and fell on the snow and fell. Persons who saw him sitting down on the walk and in great distress, approached him.

I GUARANTEE TO My success curing rupture is so seeming almost beyond belief, because there never was a real cure for this life crushing affliction until I discovered my Chemico Electric Method and unearthed a secret in medicine and surgery which has been one of the greatest blessings to suffering humanity discovered In the last half century. Knife cutting methods and old time surgical operations, painful and severe, and seldom successful, were regarded acts that belonged to a past civilization, soon as my first patient told the world of my first marvelous cure. Today the worst enemies ruptured people can have are trusses and so called "home cures." I have knowledge of this based not only on pro scientific reasons, but on the positively wonderful cures I have affected for patients who have su ffered from trusses and "home cures."
