He ig here under the patronage of Carl Woif- sohn, director of the Chicago Beethoven Society, and intends to make Chitago his home. Cuess circles are somewhat agitated at the present time, owing to the difficulties in the ‘way of consolidating the two organizations. The new club is unwilling to assume the pecuniary liabilities of the old organization, which, for two years past, has been consideréd dead, and the Tesult is that the city is likely to have two Chess Clubs in the future, instead of one. A HoRsE attached to an express wagon, owned by Patrick Kinner, rap away at 1:30 yesterday afternoon from the Fort Wayne depot, and col- Aided with a buggy at the corner of Cunal and Madison streets, upset tho vehicle, and threw out the occupant, a Mrs. Burk, residing at the corner of Wabash avenue and Thirty-third streets.

She sent at once for Dr. Wells Andrews, but by the time he arrived Boyer was dead. The Doctor thinks that heart disease was the cause, but is not prepared to gay £0 positively. Hoyer was employed aga fiagman on the Northwestern Railroad, was 59 years of age, German by birth, and left a widow and oue daughter. LaTE last night the dead body of a homeless and worthless fellow named Edward Willic was found ina ditch on Milwaukee avenue, about i0u feet north of the North-avenue intersection. He was intoxicated when last seen alive, and it is supposed that he stumbled and fell face downward in the ditch, and either drowned or suffocated there, there being at the time about eighteen inches of water and soft mud in the ditch. Willie was an American. 40 years of age, and destitute of home and friends. He had been separated for some time from his wife, and it is supposed hss a family of chfidren living in the country.

Tho Railroad Company, recognizing his valuable services, has tendered him a ife pass over the road. 2 Tre Public Library Board held a regular znceting yesterday afternoon in the office of the Board, President Shorey occupying the.chair. ‘There were present Messrs.

Owing to the storm, the German ecction Was poorly represented. most of the members living on the North Side. After the routine business of the Union was disposed of, the ques- tion of an advance in prices was discussed. It was resolved to demand of the small shops the same prices paid by the lange ones, as the bakers consider the proprietors can well afford it. The large shops bave recently granted a raise of about & a week all sround, and if the small shopsrefuse the same advance the Union will = pape omer a strike ie snore that refuse e deman ie bakersclaim that the advan asked is a just one. ie = Kurrime Murpny, about 3 years of age, and prostitute, died suddenly at Z o'clock yesterd tr afternoon in the den at No. 2% Clark street, where she made her home.

The thering indulged in an informal talk, the local brewers being in favor of a raise in price, ‘and the visitors being opposed to it, but in the absence of some of the prominont brewers ac- tion was deferred. Another meeting isto be held, when the question will be finally settled. A MysrERIOUS shooting affair, the result of mischievous malice rather than intent to do bodily injury, occurred at 10 o'ctock yesterday afternoon near the corner of Madison and Des- plaines streets. Mr. E. Jones, of No. 125 Madi- son street, and A. Mendelsohn, of No. § Berid- ian street, were struck by some buck- shot, projected either from an airgun or "a very - powerful rubbor sling. One pellet went through Mendelsohn’s clothing and left'a slight mark on the right breast, and Jones recetved another in the back, A horse belonging to the former received 2 third pelletin the left fore leg, and it went deep enough to draw the blood. ‘It was thought that the shots were fired from the third story of tho St. Denis Hotel across the street, but nothing could be ascertained accurately.’ Later it was found that the shots were fired by a young man boarding at the hotel, but he did not intend to hit auy one. He was not arrested. Tue United Armed Workingmen's Associations of Chi gave their first annul ball at Vor- waert's Turner Hail last evening. Tne armed bodies represented included the Irish Labor Guarda, Lehr und Wehr Verein, Jacger Verein, and Bohemian Sharpsbooters. The ball was not very largoly attended, owing to the severe rain- storm, but there were enough blue-bloused sol- diers and their female friends tocomfortably fill the floor and make daucing pleasant. The program included some very offective tableaux representing a scene from the life of William Tell,—the leap from the bont to the rock at the shooting of Gesler; “The Union of the Work- ingmen Under the Social Republic’; and a “Defense of the Barricados,"—a scene from the Paris Commune. John McAuliffe made a brief speech, full of the usual Communtstic doctrines, —the right to bear arms, capitalistic laws to the contrary notwitbstanding. etc., etc. The pros gram embraced twenty-four dances, and at broad daylight it was not exhausted. ‘THE eecond annual report of the Directors of the Calumet Club, which is to be prosented at. the annual meeting to be held in May, isa very encouraging document. The number of mem- bers at present on the rolisis stated to be 300, and only two deaths have occurred in the Club during the year—those of Thomas Sim and M. Brooks Gould. The $1500 invested in 4 per cent bonds increases the total fund in bonds to $5,000, now commanding a premium of $350. 3 bills due at date have boen paid, and the "amount of cash on hand is $3,540. The available cash assets amount to $9,117, and the totai assets to $13,7: The success of the Old Settlers’ recoption given last May bas led the Directors to fix upon tho third Thursday in ‘each May for a repetition of the affair. The library has been augmented by liberal contributions, and now is on a substan- tial foundation. The Treasurer's report gives the detailed list of receipts and expenditures, the assets, and a general statement of the Club's affairs, all of which tend to pronounce the or ganization a success. APARTY Of prominent officials from Toronto, Canada, who have been investigating the street- pavements of various Western cities, arrived in the city last evening and put up at the Palmer. Among the party are Dr. James Beutty, Q. C., Mayor of Toronto;'Ald. Fleming, Frees, Denison, Irwin, Walker, and Piper; ex-Ald. Boswell: ex- Ald.

They come from Detroit, where they made a similar examination, and were entertained by the De- troit officials. Owing to their coming unan- nounced they were not officially recelved here. ‘The party come at tholr own expense, but will report on theirimpressions on their return. Avaustus G. Crowe, 2% Hens of age, while inhaling chloroform at 10 o'clock yester- day morning in the drug-store, No. 709 West Twenty-first strect, prior to having a thumb amputated by Dr. Mullen, suddenly ex- ired while the operation was being performed. the Doctor first administered ether, but it apparently had no effect on the patient, and he resorted to the use of chloroform. A sponge saturated with the an:esthetic was being held to Mr. Crowe's nose by Edward Cammack, living at the corner of Moore and Lincoln streets. Hedid so at the Doctor's request and under his in- structions. The Doctor was in the very act of amputating the thumb, when he noticed that the Patient had stopped breathing. Restoratives were immedintely applied, but without.effect, as life was already extinct. The deccased was a married man, and left a wife and one child in moderate circumstances at No. 743 West Twen- ty-second = strect. While at work run- ning a grooving saw in the furniture factory, the thumb of Crowe's left hand was caught inthe machinery, and badly crushed, and it was for this reason that the Doctor was about to amputate it. This case, according to Dr. Mullen, appears to be like dozens of other cases of the kind where chloroform has been used. It is known to be dangerous to somo con- stitutions, and it was only used in this instance after ethor had failed to produce the result. A CORPSE FOUND IN THE RUINS. Between 3 and 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon, while the gang of men employed in clearinj eray tng débris left by the tire which destroy: the barn of the Chicago Railway Company on South State street were removing the charred fragmeuts of a car from an overlying stratum of half-burned hay, they lifted ‘up something which, when its shape became more fully re- vealed, caused tho workmen who had been tug- ging at it to drop it with a cry of horror. The other workmen, however, continued to investi- gate the mystery, and after some further dé brig had been removed the body of a man was disclosed to view, stretched out between some charred timbers. Out of respect to the general belief that when a corpse is found no one is permitted to touch it until the Coroner appears, the workmen left it as they found it, and notified Lieut. Buckley, of the Twenty-sec- ond Street Station, who sent Officer Dunne to look after the body. The officer on arrivin; made an examination of the body, which prove tobe apparentiy: that of a young man of 30 or 21 cars Of age, and of short, stout proportions, ing about five fect eight inches in hight. Tho man wore dark clothes, buckle shocs, and had tn his pocket six door keys, a taiflor’s thimble, a wooden pipe, a counterfeit 50-cent Piece, 40 cents’ in good - money, and fome passes to the Butchers’ ‘Onion Hall The face, hands, and feet of the man were badly. burned, but bis clothes were not more than singed, and his body was very little damaged by the flames. The body was taken to the Morgue by the oflicer, who notified the Coro- ner of its discovery. The gencral impression at the railway barn 1s that the deceased was a drunken vagrant, who had slipped into the barn during the night pre- vious to the fire and taken up his quarters among the hay. Herc he is supposed to have lit a match, after waking from his sleep, and while still in his drunken stupor, for the purpose of seeing his way out of the premises, and, the hay around him igniting, he must have fallen an easy victim to the suffocating smoke which arose. JUDGE BREESE'S LIBRARY. The sale of the library of the late Chief- Justice Breese was continued yesterday after- noon at 2 p. m. in the office of Melville W. Fuller.No. Dearborn street. Among the works sold were the following at the prices named: Freeman's Illinois Digest, to Judge Barnum, $2.50; Perry's Japan Expedition, to H. L.

The floral tributes and decorations were of surpi elegance, and were a constant theme of conversation among the ladies throughout the ‘entire evening. ‘The decorations and designs were the handi- work of that favorite artist, James Farrell, 189 Wabash avenue, who upon this occasion fairly surpassed all his former efforts, A young bachelor Sheriff was called u} to serve an attachment against a beautiful ‘oung widow; he accordingly called upon her andsaid: “Madam, I have-an_ attach- ment for you.” The widow blushed, and said his attachment was reciprocated: “You don’t understand me; you must proceed’ to court.” “Iknowit is leap-year, sir, but I prefer you to do the courting.” “Mrs: P., this is no time for ute: ‘he. Justice is waiting.” “The Justice is?
