A SEQUEL TO THE DIFFICULTY AT THE HEALTH OFFICE MENTIONED IN YESTERDAY'S STAR. It was not “Dr. Red Syn” who made a dis- turbance at the health office (as described in yesterday's Star) because he was not recog- Bized a8 a registered |p tintoary on an applica- Uon for a burial permit presented at that office by the parents of acolored deceased patient. ‘The person who made the disturbance was a Maan named Douglass, said to be a partner of or clerk in the employ of “Red Syn,” who ts ab- sent from the city. It seems that about 4 Oelock yesterday afternoon Douglass Went to the socio Office of Heaith Officer ‘Townshend at his rooms on 4x street and made an assault upon the Doctor. He did not at first find Dr. T. in, and took a seat and waited until Bis arrival, when the intruder at once de- manded to know why the heaith oficer had not advised bis clerks to give the burial permit asked for. Dr. Townshend replied that his rea- Sous had been given yesterday morning when ‘he first appited at the health office, and be did not think it neces- sary {0 repeat’ them. Upon this Douglass called Dr. T. some name, which it 13 Bol necessary to repeat, and advanced upon Bim, and Dr. Townshend responded by striking from the shoulder, bitting Douglass under the earand knocking him underthe table. Ashe lay therestiff, Dr. T. went to pull bim up, tnink- ing that he had seriously injured him, when Deug ass reached upand raked the talons of bis right hand across Dr. Townshend's face, making arow of perpendicular parallel mark: which had to be dressed with sticking piaster. A young nephew of the health officer, the son of Representative KR. W. Townshend, who Feoms !n the same house, ran out upon the street and meeting his father, who was on hts Way home, acquainted him hastiiy with the fact that some man was in the house beating his uncie. Representative Townshend ran to the scene, and finding trouble, at once dls- iched @ messenger acToss the street to police eadquarters, and Lieutenant ran over and arrested the rampant Douglass. At police headquarters resistance was made by the prisoner on bis being searched preparatory to Letng locked up in the cell, and 30 violent was he that handcuffs had to be piaced on him. He was finally overcome and secured in the cell, where he raved fora long time in his wrath. He was subsequently released on bail for a hearing before Judge Snell. “Dr. Red Syn” is in reality Mr. W. H. H. Snyder, who was some years since a resident of this city, known then familiarly as Tip Snyder—his father being fora number of years an employe of the Treasury department. IN THE POLICE COURT. In the Police Court this morning Wiillam H. Douglass was charged with assault and battery on Health Oficer Smith Townshend, who testi- fied that this mean applied at his office yester- day snout ten o’e! for a burial permis, and ‘Was refused on the ground that he was not a registered pbysician; that Douglass then got very indikcvnapt and left the ofice. He after- wards went to bis private office several times during the day during bis (Dr. T.’s) absence and threatened what be would do. He came again about half-past fve and was very abusive, in- sisting on being furnished with a burial permit, and made threats. Witness did not pay much attention to him, as he saw that he was a and Intoxicated. (Defendant here inter- rupted and calied Dr. T. a lar in presence of the court.) He was reminded by the judge that be would be put in the dock If he continued the wee of such langusge. Witness continued, say- tpg that bis servant was brushing his clothes When the intruder struck at him. Witness Tried the biow and knocked him down and eid bim until his servant and Dr. Howland came to his aid and a policeman was sent for. When raising up from the defendant to let some one else hold him, he (the defendant) clawed his face with bis cen See halls. Several wit- herses filly corroborated the health cilicer’s testimony. Lieutenant EcklofY testified as to the conduct of this man at and after the arrest. Defendant here asked for a posiponement of the hearibg. a5 he had a witness who was not in court. Friday next was then set as the time for a hearing and bonds in $200 required of de- fendant, but he was flaally let off by deposttiag ‘$20 collateral.

London Does Not Like Booth’s “Othello.” Lonpon, Jan. 18,—The Vaiiy News this morn- ing commenting on Mr. Edwin Booth’s appear- ance at the Princess theater last night as “Othello” says: “We fear Mr. ooth’s “Othello” will do little to advance the repu- tation he gained by his “Richelieu,” and in the “Fool's Revenge.” He failed to win tre full sympathy of the audience, for the pangs of jealousy or the unfathomable remorse of the victim of “lago’s” villainy. The performance Was over emphasized.” The Morning Post says: “The few points in Mr. Booth’s performance of ‘Othello” did not avail to give continuous interest to its revdering, lacking poetic imagination and grandeur of passion.” The Daily Teeyraph says: “Mr. Booth’s la bored accentuation showed itself in fuil force in “Othello” last night, and we feel oureelves oc- caslonally distracted from the scene by this excess of prepare on and constant pauses be- tween eah syllable, There was tine elocution in his speech to the Senate, but no fire and no rapture. Though the audience was very fre- equently astonished into applause, it was hever stirred into excitement and enthu- siasm, There was less heart in the calls Mr, Booth received than usual.” Sharp Fight of Hussians and Tur- comans., St. PETERSBURG, Jan. 18.—Gen. Skobeleff tele- graphs on the 1ith {nstant announcing that on the 4th, at 6 o'clock in the evening, 30,000 ‘Tekke Turcomans made a sudaen sortie from Geoktepe and assaulted the Russian trenches, which were manned by 19 compantes of in- fantry and a hundred Cassacks, acting as in- fantry, with Ubree alege guns-and 21 lighter guns. in spite of a heroic defense by these troops the Turcomaus carried the Russian outworks and also partof the second parallel, capturing 4 mounted guns and the three slege guns. The Russians then opened an artillery fire, and the reserve simultaneously attacked the enemy,who were dislodged from all the points they had cap- tured. All the artillery was retaken, with tne exception of one mounted gun, which had been carried off during the early part of the en- gagement. The Russian loss was heavy; Company of an Apsheron regiment alone Ubirty-two men Killed, including a major and a captain, and ten wounded, one officer taken prisoner. The Turcoman losses were much greater; their dead filled the Russian trenches. Simultaneously with this attack a consider- able body of Turcoman cavalry made a sortie on the Russian cavalry, which was successfully Tepulsed. Arter the Tarcomans had been re- pulsed orders were given for laying a third Parallel. As e00n a8 the Turcomans saw the Works commenced they renewed the attack With their entire strength upon the whole Russian front, but were compelled to retire into the fortress by the artillery at the close rabge from the kussian second parallel The laying of the third parallel was completed on the 10th instant, aad on the same day the fortress and strongly fortified outworks were bombarded. At 3ovclock in the afternoon the Russian column madean assault, aod after a severe struggle, captured the outworks. Tha bombardment by stege artillery was still pro- ceeding on the Jith lustant. The total of the Russ'an josses in the actions of the 9t and 10h was 9 officers atd 82 men Killed, and 8 officers, 102 men and s members of the medical staff wounded.
