The Huron News-Record, 1889-01-09, Page 6The Huron News -Record 1.50 a Yeaf-$1.26 In Advance. Wednesday. Jan. 9th. 1889 NEW YEAR IN NEW YORK. • NEW YORK, JAN. 1 -Cornelius O'Conner, a young laborer, while walking on Eliztbeth•st. suuu after midnight this morning, was struck on the head and had his skull frac Lured with a brick thrown by solve unknown member of the Elizaberth street gang of roughs who were sky- larking and fighting in the neigh- borhood. O'Connor is dying at the hospital. The gang scattered before the police arrived. The officers found another ratan, John Sweeney, suffering from bruises and cuts sustained in a similar manner. Sweeney was taken to a hospital. Three attests have been made on suspicion. SHOT THROUGH THE HEART. John Neary, a laborer aged 22 years, while stauding before the tenement, 341 Tenth avenue, where he lived with his family, was shut through the heart and killed halt' an hour after midnight, by some un- known person. A number of pee" p1rttrthe neighborhood were firing pistols iu the air; to add to the diu made by horns and whistles. It is 'supposed that through accident or carelessuess one of the shooters pointed his weapon towards the street, but it is not probable that the guilty person will ever be detec- ted. Neary's elder brother, William had been nearly dead of consump- tion, and the shock of John's death, will probably hasten his own. The brothers were stauding side by side when the shut was fired. John was the •only support of the family, as William is unable to work. A BLOODY CARNIVAL. Half a block away a shot fired iu same manner struck and wounded Alex Christie, of 318 Eleventh avenue, but this wound was not serious. There was a remarkably large number of drunken brawls be - tweet' midnight and daylight and the police in all parts of the city were kept busy ,making arrests and attending to the pe aple who were shot, cut or bruised. Benjamin Galthella, aged 17, was shot in the leg while staudiug on second avenue and Eighth street. F. Mr: Kersig, aged 29, was shut in the shoulder while looking out of a window at 231 .East Eighth street. Michael Larkin, aged 12, was shot in the leg near Eleventh avenue and Fifty- fourth street. Patrick Fitzgerald, 'of 161 Grand street, had his ankle broken in a fight between rival gangs of toughs at South Fifth avenue and Prince street. James Sullivan, a tramp, bad his clothes torn ol:' and was bitten by two bull dogs, which trete set upon him by some humorous residents of Avenue A. There was an unusual number of small fires. THE SAME 1N BROOKLYN. The celebration of the advent of the new year was unusually boisterous last night. Bliss Ellen Kilduff, aged twenty three, of 118 Navy street, was shot iu the leg while standing in her doorway. James- Ryan, who was firing a re- volver in the vicinity, was arrested. William Dunlop shot and probaby fatally wounded John' Henry, at 51 Nelson street, during a quarrel caused by the fact that Henry was celebrating the occasion too noisily to spit Dunlop, who resided in and owns the building in which henry rented • apartments. There were a large nuuber .ot' minor shouting and stabbing affairs, as well as au uuus ual number of burglaries, fires and other unpleasant incidents during the night. TIIE[R WEDDING JOURN EY S.. an elder brother on a ahoppiug ex- pedition. ' Billi on,' faltered the bride, turning her beautiful oyes trusting- ly to his, ' nobody would suspect that we are. -that we have just been -that we are now -do you think 1' ' Certainly not, Lobelia,'•affirmed Billiger, with great positiveness, as he smiled fondly and reasst'riugly upon her. 'They think we are brother and sister, Billiger, or at least that we are old married.' 'Chestnuts?' exclaimed a voice. The young llpabanh turned fieret- ly around to see who had spoken. It was the train boy, au innocent lad of seventeen summers, on whose face was a look of such childlike simplicity that Billiger's hasty sus- picions were at once allayed. The sun never shone upon a lovelier morning than that which ushered in.the•weddiug day of Bil- liger McSwat and Lobelia Grubb. Far awa'' in the dreamy distance stretched a landscape that seemed to tremble and vibrate in the mellow haze of the gulden October day us if the unseen spirits that inhabit the "air were beating it with fairy wings in the irrepressible exuberance of overtliwing. life and joy. Billiger and Lobelia McSwat had just started on their wedding jour- ney. Animated by the sincere and laudable purpose of affording no indication in their utauHet, apparel, or behavior, that they were taking such a trip, Billiger wore a suit of new black broadcloth, with a laven- dor necktie, and Lobelia was attired in a silk dross of a delicate lilac tint, with no conepicuo•us ornaments except a large solitary ring on ono of the lingers of her loft hand, and a few orange bloss0uts modestly and becomingly arranged in her Parisian travelling hat. Thoy sat on the luxurious cushion of a palace car, I3illiger's arm resting carelessly uu the back of the seat occupied by his lovely bride, and Lobelia loan ing towards Billiger iu the easy, tender, confiding manner of a mother in Israel going with hor aged companion to an old settler's meeting, or the secretary of a young ladles' society for the dissomilltltion of useful knowledge accompanying JUDGE MILLER VINDICA'I.EI). Last August at time of uomiva• tions in Halton, the Local Registrar, W. L. P. Eager, made serious charges against Judge tAliIIHr in his capacity as Revising officer. The Judge demanded and the local government granted an investigation with the following result. APOLOGY. Milton, 20th Dec., 1888. MY DEAR JUDGE, -After the close of the investigation to -day, upon thinking over all the matters that have been discussed I have honestly concluded that all. the charges heretofore made by me against you, as well as those con• taiued in the above report. of my address delivered to the electors of Halton at Milton, which appeared in the issue of the Toronto Globe on the"16th of August last, were untrue, and that thereby I have dune you a groat wroug. And, in view of *hat has passed, I withdraw heartily every statement made by me at any time derogatory to your position of judga of the County of Halton or as a private citizen, and regret the pain to which 1 • must have put you by what I have dune. I desire also that this retraction shall be as public iu its nature as the charges which I have made and which I now withdraw. I am, sir, yours sincerely, (Signed) W. L. P. EAGER To his Honor Thomas Miller, Judge of the County Court of the Coun- ty of Halton. A Bl(3 BTRiK16, A big strike was mak. when Powell '4 Davis 'leaned their E;tract of arsap- Arilln and B,trduck.

Ahmed Aarifl Effendi is the narne of tho new Director and Censor of the Press at Constantinople, and the following are some of the rules in a circular which he has sent to every editor in the Turkish capital : "Article 3. Do not publish scien- tific or literary articles too long, for completion in asingle issue. Avoid the notice 'To be continued,' which causes an uncomfortable tension of the mind. "Article 4. Avoid blank spaces and suggestive dots in the body of an article. They tend to raise suppositions, and disturb the tranquility of the reader's mind, as was lately seen in the case of the Levant Herald. "Article 5. Avoid personalities,. If anybody comes and tells you that a Governor or a deputy Governor has been guilty of' embezzolrnont, maladministration, or any other blameworthy conduct, treat the charge as not proved, and say uoth- ing about it. "Article 6. You are forbidden to publish the petitions in which in- dividuals or associations complain of acts of misgovernment and call the Sultan's attention to thein. "Article 7. You are absolutely forbidden to publish a word about attempts on the lives of foreign sovereigns, or acts of sedition in foreign countries, for it is not good that such things should he ,nude known to°our loyal and peaceable populations. "Article 8. You must not men- tion these regulations in the columns of your Journal, because they might provoke criticisms or draw 'unploas-' ant observations from ill -condition- ed minds." MILBURN'S BEEF, IRON AND WINE is prepared from fresh beef, soluble iron, and pure sherry wine, combined with choice aromatics. -There are many instances of bright passages at arms both be• tween lawyers and the bench and bar. Not unfrequeutly sharp law- yers ha%e rn re thati foetid their match iu tgrSy at d obdurate wit- nesses. 'There's brass enough in, your fare to ,make a kettle of,' said a lawyer to a crusty old maid whose testimony he was unable to break down, ',And sap enough in your .Bead to fill it,' was all he got for his pains. After`- a protracted wrangle between a judge and a prnmineut counsel, the former said: 'Well sir, if you do not know how to conduct yourself as a gentlemen I ant sure I can't teach you.' To which the lawyer simply replied, 'That is so. ley lord.' . BURDOCK PILLS cure sick head- ache by regulating the stomach, liver and bowels. -A. J.
