William M. Franklin, Charles E. Franklin and Frederick E. Shumway have again sustained the reputation of the members of the Bohemian club for being crackerjack knights of the rod and gun by bringing in the finest string of pickerel that has been shown in Danielson. They made a stunning catch of these fine fish at Bowdich meadows, where they were allowed to fish by permission. There were thirty of the fish and they weighed just.an even thirty-nine pounds. The largest fish in the lot, caught by William Franklin, weighed four pounds and one-quarter, The next heaviest one weighed three pounds and one-quar- ter and the next three pounds. Fif- teen more of the fish in the string weighed from a pound to two pounds. Altogether there was enough of the fish in the lot to feed the 100 members of the Bohemian club, if they had been allowed to eat. Every one of the fish ‘When placed on ex- hibition in the window of a local bar- ber shop they attracted the attention of about every man, woman and child that passed. This is not another story of a miracle of the loaves and fishes, but a real, bona-fide fish story. The gentlemen had the goods and gave the people an opportunity to look them over. It was a great eatch by a great trio. SLASHED WITH RAZOR. Workmen on Sewer Quarrel—One Cuts the Other—Held in $1,000 Bonds. A slash with a razor in the hands of Luigi Particenoni, 20, opened two wounds Iin the head, neck, ear and cheek of Eduardo Datilio, 30, when the men engaged in an altercation at their Broad street, late Tuesday night, that sent the injured man to the hospital. The wounds were of sickening appearance and one of them, eight inches in legnth, required nineteen stitches to close. Dr. Frank P. Podd attended the wounded man. The prineipals in the affair are en- gaged as laborers on the construction of a new . sewer. They, with a score of fellow workimen, are. staying.in the Betsy Wilcox barn, near the corner of Broad and Carter streets. The ver- sion of the story given out hv the po- !lice is that the cutting affair grew out of a dispute between the injured { man and another workman as to which couldedo the more work. After argu- ing the matter, the other party to the quarrel was struck on the head with a bottle by Datilio, and then Particeno- ni mixed in with his razor to help out his friend. Particenoni denjed that he had cut Datilio when Chief Pilling went to the lodging place to make the arrest, but he was taken into custody. It was learned later that Particenoni had al- so pulled a gun on members of the hoarding place party after he had used his razor. Chief Pilling found that the man was carrying a revolver, and relleved him of it; also securing the information from the prisoner that he had drawn it to protect himself. Datilio’'s wounds start from the crown of the head at the back and follow a diagonal course down across the neck and lobe of the ear. along the cheek to a point near the chin. The flesh was laid open to the bone | | and ome could lay two fingers side by side in the side of the scalp. It was after midnight and Wednesday morning before the man's wounds were dressed. A hearing for Particenoni was fixed for two o'clock Wednesday aft- ernoon, but it was necessary to con- tinue this proceeding until two o'clock next Monday afternoon, as Datilio was unable to appear in court. Judge Back fixed the prisoner’'s bond at $1,000 in default of which he was tak- en to Brooklyn jall. Particenoni de- | nies that he did the cutting. PUTNAM Foresters’ Election—Mrs. T.
