Bailiff Bam Crane's Bravery Quells it se
rious Disturbance.
A riot came near occurring yesterday af
ternoon on Sixth avenue, between Elev-
emh ana Twelfth streets. The railroad
employes were paid off yesterday, and
among the number were quite a force cf
negroes. As is natural with them when
they have money, they generally take
aboard a quantity of “snake bite juice.”
For seme cause unknown to tne repor
ter, while coming down Sixth avenue, Eli
Thomas and Martin Evins got into a dis
pute, and by the time they reached How
ard’s stables came to blows.
While both of the negroes were down
pounding each other and drawing blood,
Bailiff dam Crane, who happened to be
near, rushed up, and grabbing the ne
groes toid them they were under arrest.
They were both bloody at the mouth and
in a great rage. At first they submitted to
arrest, hut alter proceeding a few steps,
one or them stopped and asked Bailiff
Crane to show his warrant for their ar
rest.
The bailiff told them he had no warrant,
but he was an officer and it was his duty
to look after the peace of the community.
About this time, a young white man
appeared, and took the part of the
negroes. An Enquires Sun reporter was
present, and Bailiff Crane immediately
said : “I deputize you as an officer to
assist me.” This was a new role for the
reporter, but he waded in ana told Sam
to hold the prisoner until he got a police
man. After blowing the distress signal
for about ten minutes, a policeman
finally appeared.
Meanwhile about one hundred negroes
had gathered, and things looked rather
squally, but Bailiff Crane, with a brave
determination, held on to his prisoner
until tne officers arrived, end they were
escorted to the guard house.
Had it not been for Bailiff Crane’s “grit”
there is no teliing what might have hap
pened. as the crowd of negroes was large
and they ail sympathized with the prison
ers. A great deal of excitement pre
vailed fora time, but Thomas Evins and
the white . man who said Crane had no
right to arrest the fighters were soon
locked up and tne crowd dispersed. They
will have a hearing before the mayor this
morning.
There is one thing certain about the
affair, 3however, and that is while the
Enquirer Sun reporter belongs to the
“troolv loyal,” he don’t care to be sum
moned as a special officer any more.

Beauty Under an Umbrella.
A young lady bad quite an adventure
the other night, beneath an umbrella.
And this is how it happened: In the
house where the trouble occurred, there
are two rooms, facing each other, with an
entry way between. In one of these
rooms sat a young man at a table, read
ing a novel; in the other, there were
three young ladies, who had ret>red .
for the night. One of them j
got up and went out into the entry-
way to get a pitcher of water, when tie !
other two, to have some fun, locked the ;
door on her. Finding herself in the dark, ]
she screamed a sweet littie ecream, which
so startled the young mau who was reading !
the novel, that he jumped up and opened
his door like a flash! As the young lady
saw him, she screamed again,and crouched
down beneath a big umbrella, which was
close at haDd, and was lost to sight
in a moment. The young man took in
the situation and retreated to his room,
but left his door wide open. Then, the
young ladies who had locked their part
ner out, relented, and thinking all other
doors were closed, opened theirs to let
her id; one of them, all robed in white,
stood iu the door a moment in full view
of the young man who was nearly
dead with laughter. When she
realized her situation she, too,
screamed and vanished. Then the one
under the nmbrella begged the young man
to shut the door, but he wouldn’t, and
just sat there laughing. The result was
that, the umbrella for a screen, she finally
crawled back into her room and closed
the door with a baDg. The fun was in
seeing the umbrella moving around the
entry way, which it did with most labori
ous effort. This is no fancy sketch, but a
real and recent happening.—Rome Tri

SKEETEKS
“>t’s strange." I remarked to a wife of mine one
night (I call her a wife of mine to get even with
her for addressing me in a letter as her' dear and
only husbard") "It’s strange, I observed,
• how blood will tell. Now :f you will kuioij no
tice my poor relations as they fly around you
will see—”
"SVhat poor relations? sez *ne.
"VYhv. those sk.-eters, biood ot mv h.ood, and
bone—that is. I mean if you net ce them care-
fullv. laying al prejudice to o-e side, y01 nu
see that they are possessed m a very irmirkabe
degiee of af the physical and facial charac er
istics cf the Holloway family You wdlob-erve
that that old patnar meal fellow s-J^ing over
there oa that fo getmenot— I mean on tha. wnat-
not in the comer, hi$s the Napoleonic nose and
the military cast of feat ares of my
eranildavdy on the paternal side of the house,
and that that young duuish-iookmg leilow, wno
isensra&ed in insp ct ng the family sapiing oy r
there in the Bible, has the .aectical expression
in and out of tae eyes, of old man ‘shout ana go
round’ Holloway, of revolutionary fame, and—
“I’]] venture to sa/.” broke in the madarte,
“that the bloodthir ty wretches n »w hovering
over me 1U e guardian angels, have just returned
from a northern tour, whe a they must have suc
ceeded in getting a taste of Canfield blood, from
the satisfaction they exhibit when they get a
c ance to pi act their black heels on mine ana
the baby’s n-cks.”
“Please don’t interru t me,” I sa d a lit: le
nettled, for I »a - that my neck was not men
tioned. “But look at the Mobile and Ju ard
countenance of that lady skeeter sitting on the
bed post, and tell m - if you can’t see as plain as
the nose on your face the unmistakable presence
of the biling blue biood that fca3 for courtiers
weeks run in one grvnd surging stream through
aristocratic and high-:oned bl: oa vessels, and
gathering sirength and color in its long and
rushing run in the end, though somewhat
diverted from its ori>»ir*ia! a- d legitimate course,
proves beyond a doubt that whiskey—I mean
that b'ood i? stronger than water, and that its
ias* happy and f«. rtuuate possessor is a- i3 &
chip of the r Id block—”
“And,” sarcastically interrupted the widow
Holloway, “the way that crowd cf skeeters, with
hungry and blood-siiot eyes, hover a ound the
mouth of yow loaded and deadly bott e also
proves ” _
“It don’t prove anything of the kind, said I,
“and I wish you wouldn’t interrupt me with sen-
timen ai remarks altogether furrin to tne subject,
but direct your attention to what I was goiug to
s*y about hat litt’e, small-looking skeeter, with
the sad and hfartbroken face, whose wobegoue
features plainly go to prove that the unlucky
‘stair’ of married ife, ot which my Ann Cestors
have been guilty for hundreds of times, has so
left its stamp and trade m: rk on the faces of
their descendants,from generation to generation,
that at la t that meek, remorseful look of ‘sorry
I spoke’ is fo'ever grafted in the Holloway face.
“But John Holloway, my Jo John,” she lowd,
“I think you have omitted the most positive
proof, aud most damaging argument possible, it
you are trying to prove that those there skeeters
being inoculated with the brown sequestard
blood of the Holloways, also are burdened^ with
the family disposition and characteristics—”
“Well,” saio I, “let’s hear from your pre-iuct.
“Toev are ali suckers,” she said.
J. K. HOLLOWAY,
p. S.—Its a strange thing to me that whenever
I write a true heartfelt Ii—I mean art cle, on any
subject with which my aching heart is burdened,
that a suspicious public will get it iuto their
heads that I am trying to advertise my immense
stock of 10 cent bargains, which don't need any
such schemes to make them s .11. I think it very
uukind in them myself.

as soon as he draws a watc 1 w 11 drop out, until
all members will have watches of various grades.
his club will have four grades of watches, vary
ing from £12.50 to $40 00, except the last man will
draw a wat.h worth $‘0.00. If you don’t under
stand my new scheme, just drop into my $1-09 a
week store, and 1 will give you the inside track
on the whole busiaess. emember every mem
ber will get a watch, and no one member will be
responible for anv other member, for just as
soon as one member draws a witch he drops out,
and he will not pay any more money to the club.
Here is the way all members will draw their
-watches:
First—Nine members will draw a watch each
■ tweak worth .$12.50 ctsh.
Second—Nine members will draw a watch
arorth £2’.00. .
Third—, ine memb rs will draw a watch worth

Death of Mr. A, J. Tyler.
Mr. A. J. Tyler, aged fifty-nine years,
died at his home in Girard at four o’clock
yesterday morning after a short illness. As
he was crossing the lower bridge to his
home last Saturday night, he was stricken
down with paralysis, and never rallied.
Mr. Tyler was a harness maker by trade,
aud was employed by Mr. M. A. Bradford;
of this city, for many years. He leaves a
Wife and three children to deplore his sud
den death. The fanerai will take place
from his late residence at nine o’clock this
morning.
Death of Mr. R. W. Coleman.
The Enq.iirer-Sun regrets to learn of
the death of Judge R. W. Coleman, which
occurred at the residence of his son-in-law,
Mr. H. J. Finney, near Macon, Ga., at 1:20
o’clock Saturday morning. Mr. Coleman
had many friends in this section. He was
apDOinted conductor on the Mobile and
Girard railroad under Maj. John Howard’s
administration in 1S57, and remained on
the road in that capacity for about a quar
ter of a century, and retired in 1882 on ac
count of feeble health. Since that time he
has been living with his children, and baa
not been actively engaged in any business.
At the time of bis death, Mr. Coleman was
sixty-five years of age. He is the father of
Capt. R. B. Coleman, who now holds the
position of conductor on the Mobile and
Girard road, so long and honorably filled
by his tat her.
Accidentally Shot.
The Padgett place, in Russell county,
came near being the scene of a fatal shoot
ing a few days ago. One negro man aimed
a pistol at another and pulled the trigger.
The ball entered at the corner of the left
eye, inflicting a dangerous, but not a fatal
wound. The party who did the shooting
was arrested, but was afterwards released,
as the man who was shot stated that the
shooting was accidental. The names of
the negroes could not be learned.
Joe JHcGeliee Captured.
Officers Reynolds and Gammon run in
the young negro, Joe McGehee, at an
early hour yesterday morning, on a charge
of attempted burglary. Joe was endeav
oring to pry open the window of the resi
dence of Charlie Johnson, colored, on
Seventeeth street, when scotted by the
officers. When he noticed the officers ap
proaching he made a dash for liberty,
but was quickly overhauled and placed
behind the bars.
A Piece of Bone Removed.
It will be remembered that sometime
ago Bailiff Newsome was hit on the h ead
with a brick, by a negro named George
Grimes. The wound has been a source of
great pain and trouble to him ever since.
Saturday, while examining the wound in
his cfficei Justice Barr removed from the
wound a pice of the skull about two inches
long. Bailiff Newsome feels considerably
better since the hone was removed.
Grand Encampment of I. O. O. F.
The grand encampment of I. O. O. F.

ing, and it is anticipated that upwards cf
three hundred delegates will be on hand.
The Columbus delegation left yesterday,

Berry, W. Banner and M. O. Berry. It s
expected that the encampment will ad

Wooklridye’s Wonderful Cure,
Unlocks the Store House
Of Health and Evicts
The Enemy.
Wooldridge’s Wonderful' Cure is
a happy combination of elemen
tary principals, adapted to antidote
certain specific poiions, and to al-
lign itself with the vital forces to
restore natural energy. Its action
is upon the stomach, the intestines,
the liver, on all the glands and all
the other organs that have part in
makiDg and purifying the blood.
Antidote, nutralize and expel
poison, and make pure blood and
you are not far from health. This
is what Wooldridge’s Wonderful
Cure does, and why it cures the
class of diseases that the certifi
cates show it has done.
Mrs. A. C. McGehee.
My wife has teen afflicted for six years with
a most dreadful blood po son of some kind, called
9alt rheum by eminent physicians. During this
period she was treated by several specialists.
Has taken quantities of all the b ood purifiers on
the market, without realizing any special benefit.
She is now using Wooldridge's Wonderful Cure,
a few bottU s of which has made a complete cure.
I unhesitatingly recommend it as the best blood
purifier ever discovered. Youre truly,

I beg to announce that I have inaugurated the Club System of supplying a RKI.JA
GOLD Si'EJI WINDER WATCH payable in an easy way. and in answer to nua
inquiries relative to the working of this plan I wi3h to submit the following points for your co
tration and perusal :
As eoon a3 the number of subscribers amounts to, say sixty, the price of the watch to be
chased, each subscriber will be notified that the list is closed:’and after each member of th«
has made his first payment, it will be decided by lot who shall get the first watch. Thus ta
tributions will take place week sfter week until all members shall be in the possession o
watc: es. After a member has received a watch, he will have to keep on paving his dofar p-
the same as the other members until the watch is paid for '$o0.00>, and on receiving his w uc
has to give approved secu rity for the future regular payments. In case of the death of one c
members, we are willing to refund the money paid iu to the legal heirs or administrators: a:
case a member should wish to withdraw, he can either find a substitute or take out other men
dise to the amount of his share paid in. Jf a party wants to pay more than $1.00 per week—sa;
or $3.00—he can do so, and thereby increase the probability of coming sooner in possession
watch.
