COLUMBIA STREED ResiDENTS, CORNER GROCERILS AS RUM SHOPS. To tHe Epitor ov tux Heraup:— It ig @ singular fact that temperance advocates and lecturers as well as the press have failed to touch upou one of the most giarimg and demoralizing evils existing im our city, I refer to rum-selling retail grocery stores, Their number Is legion, A great ado 18 made about desecrating the Sabbath by the public sale of iiquor, and yet thousands of these places aro Open every ‘Sabbath morning, and many of them turoughout the day, dispeusing tntoxicating bever- ages to whomsoever apples, Their patrons ure not only the poor of both sexes, but they include the respectable appearing’ hypocrie, who professes to abhor the very idea of entering & public house, In the name of decency, it nothing more, let us have some legislative movement to sever the two branches of business und prevent a retail grocer irom receiving a retail liquor license. Again, would it not redound to the creait of the prohibinon- ist to urge the founding of temperance stores?

Tne “indicators” are sus- pended by a strap around the neck of the wearer, aud in gome instances Where the conductor weurs a low ‘Vest the strap not only wears but stains his white sbi. In order to obviate this evil (uot receiving suf- ticient Wuges to permite clean shirt every day) somo of the conductors added u short piece to the strap so ay to bring tho indicator, with 118 straps, below the shirt froat, and ior tuis trifling act the sixth Avenue Railroad Company indignantly discuarged three of their oldest conductors, Wo ull kuow that woulthy corporations are inclined to be overbearing toward their employéa, but in this instance 4 proves the Sixth Avenue Railroad Company to be the iueanest of all the mean corporations I have been 4 patron of this road for several years, but I shall bail with joy the auvent of the elevated road, Wuen this company will receive no more tures trom, Yt, RESERVED BEATS AT THE ACADEMY OV MUSIC, To tue Epirog oy tus Heeaty;— The writer, who hus been im the habit of attending converts, operas, &¢., at the Academy of Music, thinks that be and the public have been imposed upon long enough, as the fullowing incident will prove, In attending the concert given by Miss Thursby on Monday evening at the Academy hoe bought bis ticket as usual for filty cents, which, ac cording to the advertisements in the newspapers, en- titled Lim (0 a geut In any part of the family circle, us ho seats Were advertised us reserved in that part of the house, But on euteriug the family circle an in- solent usher (%) calts out, “The three iront rows ro. served?

My states mont in Wednesday’s Hrnaup is correct The yards to which 1 reler are those located near Pavonia ferry, between the Erieand the Pennsylvania Ralleoad de- pots, The accompanying statement is from my in- jormant, W. BS. In passing through the yards on Sunday last I no- ticed that the tanks in nearly every case were empty. The watercock being convenient, I opened it in two or three places, when the cattle made @ frantic rush for the tanks, ightiog each otuer at the mere sound of the water, those In adjoining yards piling one on top ef another tu their eiforts to vreak down the barriers separating tnem from the more fortunate 1 asked a man WhO appeared to be av employs Why the cattle were not properly watered—Iit it was anybody's busi- ness to attond to them, He said that they were pur- posely kept without water until the morning of tar- ket day, as then they would drink so much that they would weigh siderably more than they otherwise would; that there would be trouble if it was known that I had givon them water; that on several occasions when outsiders had inverierod the deaiers bad com- plained to the proprietors of the yards that they could not stand the reduction of proats caused by sach in- terference; henco water starving had become the prac- tice, Li the gontioman who denies this would like to #60 an exhibition of animal torce beside which the re- ported force of the Koeiy or js into insigoiti. cance he bas only to (arn ov the water in some of the aye h was com. 4 empty tanks previous to market morning THE FIREMAN’S DEATH, HIS OPPONENT EXONERATED BY A CORONER'S suRY, Josoph Williams, the freman who was cut in tho right arm by James Donovan last Suoday at Engine House No, 29, in Fulton street, died of bis injuries at the Chambers Street Hospital yesterday forenoon, At the inquest held by Coroner Eliinger the prisoner tes- tified as follows:—I bad a difficulty with the deceased about four months ago, when | was on house duty; called him to account for making a noise, when bo strack me; last Sunday was on house duty when Ag- sistant Foreman brake” told me to put down on the blotter that Uiams was excused for half hour; when he returned I asked him for his excuse for overstaying bis timo; then walked over to the stove with a peokuife in my bana, which 1 bad been cleaning a pipe with; warded off tne biow with that hand; he*kKnocked me down; cunnot tell where the knife struck Lim, as I bad ne intention of doing so. The above evidence was corroborated by sevoral other members of the engine company, some of whom testified to the use of abusive language by deceased toward Donovan immediately preceding the affray. Alter some medical testimony the following verdict was rendered by the jury:—"We find that the deceased came to his death at tho hands of James Donovan, at the engine house Nos, 191 and 193 Fulton street, on the afternoon of October 28, 1877, suid wounds being given in tne act of self-doteuce aud with no intention of committing bodily injury.” ‘The prisoner was thereupon discharged from custody by the Coroner. SUSPECTED MURDER IN NEWARK, During the latter part of yesterday afternoon, at the head of the deep lock of the Morris Canal, at the foot of Cana! street, near Mulberry, Newark, the body of a man named James Connolly was found, It ts believed his death was the result of foul play: Oa last Saturday night he lett his home, No. 40 School sireet, having with bim the greater portion of his week’s pay. He said nothing to his wife us te where he was going. Saturday night and Sunday passed, but there were no tidings of him, On Monday night Mrs. Connolly noti- fled the police of Mer husbund’s mysterious disappoar- ance, and Detective McManus was put on the scent, He found that Connolly when last seen was with a crowd of young River street youths, drinking in o saloon kept by one Farley, in Soutn Canal street. Mrs. Connolly herself said that ao youngster named Owen Daly, a doctor’s servant, was with her hucband late on Saturday night. A warrant was issued for his arrest, but belore it could be served Daly appeared at the police station and de- livered bimself up, As be is kuown to ve a respect- ablo boy he was allowed to go on his own recogni. zance, Yesterday Detective McMunus caused Keeper Peter Mellon to draw the water from the lock in the canal basin, Upon doing 80 Coanolly’s body was found in the bed of the canal There was bo money in the pockets, and a basty examination failed to dis- cover uny marks of violence. 1t 18 beheved, how. ever, that be was robbed and pitched overboard, No have yet been made, An inquest will be held SALE OF DOCK PROPERTY.
