At 11 o'clock last night the sharp report of a revolver was heard at the St Nicholas hotel corner, and almost immediately afterwards two men were scampering down booth Main street It was some time before an explanation of the affair could be gathered, aud then it was learned that no one was hurt Grant Cussins and Jack Faunce, two young reprobates well known to the police, crossed over south Main street to the St.

Nicholas corner. Turning southward they saw Jack Broil, colored, second cook at the St Nicholas, who was standing mere inonensiveiy ana saying nothing. The pair approached him and alter speaking to him harshly, with out a word of warning, Faunce struck him a heavy body blow, winding him at once. Geo. Johnson, a colored youth formerly in the employ of Dr.

heeler, said something and Uussins turned to assault him when Johnson fired to frighten him away. With that exeunt Cussins, Faunce and the crowd gathers. This is the story as told by several travelling men. unicers Uailey and Helmick hnally got hold of Johnson and lodged him in jail. Johnson said that he and tSroil and another colored fellow had had some words with Faunce and Cussins near the opera house.

When they met again it was at the bt Nich olas corner. After quarrelling a while Faunce and Cussins went back over the crossing, and when they were about halt way over Johnson called to them "Come back and we will do you up." At that they returned to the corner and Faunce assaulted Broil, striking him in the abdomen and about the head and face. Cus sins turned to assault Johnson and he fired a shot from his revolver, after which Faunce and Cussins ran off to wards the south. The ugativea, it seems, ran south only to Wood street, thence east to the alley and sonth again. At the alley Charles Lemasters, clerk for R.

Lid- die, saw them and heard Cussins say to Faunce "You will, have to help me I can't get any farther if you don't" rom this it was supposed that Cus sins was shot. However, Officer Mason claims to have heard a bullet whistle by the city clerk's windows. If this be true, it is very evident that CnssiDs was not hurt, for only one shot was fired. No trace of either Cussins or Faunce was found last night They made their escape for the time being, but they will probably be arrested today. Johnson was arrested in his room at the Palace hotel, where he was second cook.

It is probable that he and the delectable pair before mentioned will hustle the ball and chain for a week or two. Hosiery.

Wood street, between Main and Water. The Council Passes Another Or dinance Relating to Street Improvement The Paving Contracts A Petition for a Sewer on North Main Street. An adjourned meeting of the city council was held last night. It was attended by all the aldermen. His honor, the mayor, presided.

The pro ceedings follow: A PETITION. A' petition asking the council to build a sewer on North Main street, commencing at Cerro Gordo street, running thence sonth to William street, thence west on William street to the main sewer, was read and re ferred to the Public Improvement committee. It was signed by Geo. b. Durfee, Geo.

V. Burroughs and V. B. Hall. The petitioners set for ihat in their judgment drainap aould be provided before the Irv of any street paving.

The petii -i is regarded as an effort to prev-: the paving of North Main js year. The Public Improve-nirr committee will doubtless pigeon- 'j it. A resolution. A resolution introduced by Alderman Harwood providing for draining the alley bat ween Clinton street and the I. C.

right of way, from Sangamon street north, at a cost not to exceed ten dollars, was adopted. an ordinance passed. An ordinance providing for the issuing of special tax warrants for the special taxes levied for the improvement by paving of the portions of West Main, North Main, Cerro Gordo streets, and the whole of North Park street, was read and passed under suspension of rule 15. The ordinance provides that the owner of each lot abutting on the line of the streets to le improved shall have the right for a period of ten days after the approval and acceptance of the improvement by the council upon, the payment to the city clerk of an amount equal to 90 per cent of the proportionate share of the cost of the improvement charged against his lot, to have issued to him a special tax warrant against the special tax fund levied for the improvement, for an amount equal to the whole amount of the proportionate share charged against his lot, which special tax warrant shall be signed by the mayor. It is provided however that such lot owner may at any time before the final completion and acceptance of the entire improvement, pay to the contractor 90 per cent of his proportionate share of the contract cost of the improvement and take the contractor's receipt therefor, and upon the surrendering of the receipt to the city clerk within ten days after the completion of the work, shall receive a special tax warrant for the whole amount of his proportionate share of the contract price in the same manner as if the payment had been made to the clerk.

In other words, Mr. Hunt, the contractor, will not be obliged to wait for his money until the assessments levied against the lotowners shall have been collected by the special collector and paid into the hands of the clerk; and all lot owners who may desire will have the privilege of paying Mr. Hunt direct the amount due from them and thus benefit by such reductions from the contract price of the work as he may offer them as an inducement to prompt payment THE CONTRACTS. The contracts between the city and Mr. Hunt will be drawn according to this ordinance and the paving ordinance and will be signed at once.

TIME EXTENDED. On motion of Alderman Harwood bidders on the cobblestone improvements were allowed until 5 o'clock p. m. of the 7th of June to submit their bids. The time was extended from May 25.

After discussing other matters in an informal manner the council adjourned at 11:40 o'clock. Charged With Rape-Joseph Keenie, a married man who lives on Durfee street, has been arrested on a charge of rape. The warrant for his arrest was sworn out by Thomas J. Hinesley, who alleges that on the 5th inst Keenie ravished his daughter, Ella Hinesley, aged 18. The girl worked as a domestic in Keenie's family, and the story is that he ravished her at his own home.

The girl states that Keenie prevented her from making an outcry and alarming the family by forcing a handkerchief into her mouth. She however made no mention of the alleged assault at the time it is alleged to have occurred-' nor for several days thereafter, and her story is regarded as being very fishy. Keenie will have a hearing before 'Squire Lowry at 1 o'clock next Wednesday afternoon. He is now out on bail. Keenie's friends say that the Hinesley are attempting to extort money from him.

Road master Cain is determined to destroy the pioturesqaeness of the landscape in the vicinity of the office of Snpt Kinsman. He has already commenced to nil np the miniature lake. Berry King will now have to sell his gondola or take it to the river. So far as reported, passenger earn ings over Western roaas lor May thus far have fallen 25 to 40 per cent. below the earnings of the first half of May, 1885, and, what is more, there is no indication of an early improvement est-bound travel shows the most falling off.

The belief prevails that the late sale of the Wabash will be declared off. The purchasing committee expected to get it for a song. They expected to avoid the payment of some prior claims aggregating between and 8,000,000. Judge Treat has unequivocally informed them that the sale would not be confirmed until some arrangement was made for the satisfaction of these claims. It is even said that Jay Gould is now giv ing the ile a cold shoulder, and will make no effort to have it confirmed.

Two Answers. Mr. Burgess says that he did not lay the gravel on Water street in 1876 in conformity with the Tuttle grade, but rather according to his own ideas of the needs of the property on either side. In other words he did not build according to the plans. "The gravel was put 4 inches above grade I what grade his orTuttle'sf to allow for settl ement and wear." Our discuss ion of the questions at issue has all been based upon the supposition that the street was made according to the plans.

If it was not, that disposes of the whole question so far as we are concerned, for it is a virtual confess ion of the point for which we have been contending. To assert that the gravel has been worn down from four to eight inches, is one thing; to prove it is quite another. All that we know is that no investigation based upon excavation have as yet revealed a depth such as was called for by the ordinance, and indeed, if wear be freely conceded, no uniformity of wear is discernible, it is a little re markable, too, that Mr. Burgess takes no notice of the great quantities of gravel which have been hauled to Water street during the ten years to fill up the holes caused by washouts, the absolute need of a good street on busiest thoroughfare in the city mak ing the course necessary. Bat the council aets wisely in con cluding to disregard the gravel altogether, and to make the paving just the same as if there was no gravel the re.

That Tired Feeling When the weather grows warmer, that extreme tired feeling, want of appetite, dullness, languor, aud lassitude, afflict almost the entire human family, and scrofula and other diseases caused by humors, manifest themselves with many.
