The parties to this affair re Herman SharTir, a German nirjety yt-ara of and Mr. Hoover, a woman apparently forty years old. They are cetgbbora and reside in Kl ward's ailey, between Twenty-sixth and Twenty-Baventh streets, South Si1e. It appears that Borne time before dusk they became invoi red in an altercation over their children, daring which the woman armed herself with a poker and struck her antagonist on the head with it, knocking him. down, la falling the old gentleman broke two ribs, and it is thought injured himeelf internally.

He was subsequently con-Teyed to his home, and Dra. Schwartz Miller and Rahaaaer were summoned. Upon making an examination each of the physicians gave it aa his opinion that SbanVr was severely ir.jured and that on account of his ags his recovery is extremely doubtful. TTpon learning the extent of the old man's injuries Mrs. Hoover began to realize what mischief she had done and became seriously ill in consequence.

She was -ii fined to her bed, and two onicers remained at her house all night ready to take her into custody whenever her condition would permit her removal.

THE ISBAUFOKD BOIS. More Testimony od Their Heroic Conduct. Tbe toast (iaard-How the People of At Ian tie Ity feel An article recounting the heroic exploits of Christopher aud Michael Bradford at Atlantic City appeared in these columns on Monday last. The main part of the article was copied by the Leader bat iu a later edition of that paper appeared a third page editorial, boosting the Coast Guard and making Christopher's efforts to reach the stranded ship flora Curtis appear as the most fool-hartly attempts. The article stated that Chris, had a quarrel with a straoger, during which his Bradford) shirt had been torn off, and to make gfod his boasting Bradford had plunged into the waters, knowing full well at the time that he could never reach the ship.

The article printed in The Post was based on the affidavits of the shipwrecked crew of the Flora Curtis and on the testimony of citizens and ft rangers at Atlantic City, as related to Mr. John Coyle and others. This much by way of explanation to the following LETTER FROM CHRIST. BRADFORD, received yesterday: Atlantic City, Augun as, 1 Mr. John Cogh: My If ear fr'HiBn I ana very thankful to yon for trie interest yon take In our welUr.

Ooyie stated that a meet ing of citizens and hotel guests held on the evening he arrived at A tlautic City to take action concerning the con duct of the Guard. These citizens organ ized a mocE court Del ore which the tuern bers of the Guard were summoned. The Guard, probably owing to the consciousness that they were guilty of breach of conduct and still stinging under the indieuation felt against them, gave their testimony be fore this mock court. They ad muted themselves that when the ball having line attached was red from the mortar it was done simply to allay the indignation of toe people, lor tne nam well Knew that the baa could never reach toe stranded sh This testimony Mr. Coyle further states was sent onto the authorities at Avabiiieton and the latter are likely to order a thorough investigation.

BUSINESS OF THE BAD FORDS. The two Bradford brothers are in no way connected with the Coast Guard. They employ an assistant and some times still another man, and style themselves the lies cue Life Guard. The Brad fords are employed by the occupants of the cottages near the heach, and are on duty daiiv daring bathing hours. One of them is generally stationed in a boat out beond the satety line and the others remain on the bach with their life preservers ready They keep a constant warch on the bathers and should any person happen to be swept beyond the safety line or be expoatxl to Ganger in any otner way they are always on hand to rescue then.

Bince our article of Monday last Christ, has saved the life of a colored man who had suuk for the third time.

One afternoon while Mr. Coyle was standing on the beach talking to Christopher and Michaei, an old salt approached the trio with the question.

"Where are the Brad ford Mr. Coy le i ntrod uced hern to the stranger, and the latter remarked that he bad bten a seafaring man all his life, and that his only sons were both sea faring men. He bad sought the Bradford boys to tell them that their luuguient correct on the dav and niht of the storm which wrecked th Fior Curtis and to wish them success in their work. He also ohVred them a contribution. we have no disposition to enter in a profitless discussion, but this much addi tional we have said iu reference to the Bradford brothers that honor may be given where honor is due.

THE Ol'tltA HOOK. How the Building Has Been Uean-tilled. Sew fr'reaeofiiff and 3iew t'arnlab- neati JPrvspectM for the The improvements at the Opera House are fast approaching completion. The reporter strolled into the building yesterday to get a glimpse at the improvements. The changes are great.

The wails, ceilings and dome have been freshly frescoed by Mr. Sborigini in soft neutral colors, which add much to the beau'y of the house. lie-fore the walls wcru pointed in dark, and the room had a gloomy appearance. The light colors render the place very cheerful indeed. The panels on the walls are bordered by bright gold heading.

The new wooden chirs with the perforated bottoms and backs are a.solirfht, ciean and airy, and go far tow ants giving the bail its preHut cheery aspect. Tub old upholstered chairs were arranged in the orchestra circie so that there was but one aisle in this apartment. In placing the, new chairs an aiste has been left at the side of the railing separating the orchestra from the orchestra circle, aud now patrons who favor this part of the trail have three means of access to the chairs This does away with the inconvenience tf a dr.zn people rising iu their aeaui in order to allow one person to paas from the aisle to a vacant chair. The pruaoenium has also been repainted, and presents a handsome appearance. 'ew prismatic bandolier have replaced the old ones, aud when tbe bui.ding is cleansed rich Brussels carpet wiii be laid on the tioors both up-stairs and down stairs The scenery ha alro U-en retouched by Arthur rainier, aud many minor improvements that will add to the comfort and convenience of the- patrons have ben made.

He expru3 amarked icnprovtmrit in bueiuess this year. The managers throughout the counixy, he says, entertain hopes.

The veteran manager last evening received word from tbe Tourists, the company which appear next week. They are now diligently rehearsingat New York. They have never yet appearrd in their new piece, but Isierexpects them to make it a success from the first. Their performance is something after the nature of that given by the Troubadours, consisting of singing, dancing and comedy. ne scene is in the interior of a Pullman sleeping car where the funny situations and experiences to which all travel are subjected are pictured.

Tbe Tourists is said to be one of the best combinations that will tat the road this season. Marjager Ellsler says there will be one hundred and six first clans traveling combinations this season, to say nothing of innumerable companies which can nor find admittance to first class theatres. There will be more regular stock companies in New York than last season, but outside of New York all the theatres in the land, save three or four, will be run exclusively on the combination plan. Mr. Kilsier has secured many of the best combinations, and tbe time at the Opera is now engaged up until March.

He has decided upou the new departure of with-hoUiing the names of his attractions for this season until shortly before the dates arranged for their appearance here- THE DEMOCRATIC CAMPAIGN.
