G, Bartlett Mas a Bloody Fight, bat Overp His Antagonist, Who Proves to Tie n Well Known Character. e wers B. G. Bartlett, wh at 744 West Broadway and lives street, was awakened yesterday morning at 1 o'clock by a rather violent remark from an ingenious burglar alarm, which he has rigged up between the store and the house Bartlet dressed and went over to the stor armed with a revolver. While he was recon- noltering around the back door a fellow got up from among a pile of boxes and ran away. Bartlett emptied his revolver in the direction of the fugitive, but the latter out- ran the bullets and none of them took effect Bartlett went back home after more cart- ridges, but was unable to find them. He re- turned to the store, opened the front door and went in to look for the other burglar, who had struck a match while Bartlett wa cross the street. Bartlett had walked some little distance toward the back end. of the store when he glanced around and saw the figure of a man just about to slide out of the front door. He ran back and grappled with the fellow, striking him repeatedly with his revolver until he had him down on the floor. The burglar was armed with a big cheese knife, with the back of which he struck Bartlett hard blows that drew blood. About this time Officer Martin appeared and the fellow was taken to the ity jall, where it was found that he was Lee orman, a well known character about town. An effort was made to induce him to name his pal, and he said his name was Ed Walker. He had been seen with Ed Baker, a drug- gist's son, during the evening up until 12 o'clos and two officers were immediately sent to Baker's house to arrest him. He was in bed, but was covered with perspiration as though he had had a hard run of it. Both Bartlett and Forman were covered with blood, most of which came from For- man. The city physician was summoned to care for Forman, whose condition was such yesterday morning that he could not have a preliminary hearing in police court. A search warrant was sworn out during the afterncon for the residence of Baker and Forman, 1216 Avenue C, and the search for stolen goods was made by Constable Baker. A bottle of morphine was found, which was identified as having been stolen from George S. Davis’ drug store last week. At the same time eight razors were stolen, but none of them were found. It is also claimed that the two men broke into Win- chester's saloon not long ago and stole a lot of liquors and cigars, together with a small amount of cash. City Physiclan Macrae stated last even- ing that Forman was badly battered up by the repeated collisions of his head with Bart- lett's revolver, but he hardly thought he would prove seriously hurt. keeps a grocery store across the ENDED HER LIFE. Mrs. Lynch of Lincoln Commits Sulcide in a Council Bluffs Hospital. Mrs, Sarah Lynch, one of the inmates of St. Bernard’s hospital committed suicide yesterday morning some time between 6 and 8 o'clock. She was in a deli- cate condition when she arrived at hospital on April 25 from L'ncoln, B Since she arrived at the hospital she has been in the habit of taking a walk about the grounds each night and morning. Yesterday morning she started out about 6 o'clock and nothing more was scen of her for a long time. No uncasiness was felt until § o'clock, when word was brought in that her body was hanging to a tree in the rear of the hospital. Dr. Macrae, who was performing an opera- tion in the institution at the time, went out and cut the body down, and found life ex- tinet. Among her possessions two letters were found, one of which was directed to the sister superior of the hospital. It told where her burial dress was to be found and among other things said: ‘“Telegraph Mr. N. Ikes of Pleasantdale, Seward county, Neb., that his daughter Sadie is dead.” The other letter was seaie and directed to be delivered to whoever should come for her remaln While the inquest was being held in the afternoon at Lunkley's undertaking rooms rather an interesting episode took place. Coroner Jennings was out of the city in the morning and Justice Fox was asked by some of the sisters at the hospital to offi- clate in his place. The coroner came in shortly after the holding of the inquest had commenced, and seeing the justice seated at the table, remarked: “You're a little ahead of the game, aren’'t you?'" Justice Fox immediately flared up and re- plied: “Ill have you understand, young man, that Il not be dictat:d to by any such pup as you are.” “And I want it understood, Mr. Fox." rejoined Jennings, “that if it were not for your gray hairs I'd teach you how to talk iike a gentleman.” “You get out of here and mind your own business,” velled Fox; “I've a notion to mop up the floor with you.” Jennings went, but he was not in any particular hurry about it, and Fox was at length left monarch of all he surveyed. The jury, which consisted of M. Abel, Thomas Pilling and M. Goodwin, then proceeded to use up three hours in ascertaining whether Mrs. Lynch committed suleide or not. A verdict of suicide by hanging was finally rendered. In talking upon the matter Coroner Jen- nings sald: “No inquest was needed in the case, and 1 do not recognize this as being | an inquest, for it was held without my orders when I was in a condition to give orders. I shall charge up the regular fee for view- ing the body, and I hardly think the Board of Supervisors will be o foolish as to pay Justice Fox fees for the inquest.” The justice kept no record of the mony. testi- Week to Celebrate, This Is one of them ost important weeks in the year, and looked forward to by young and old, and is by no means overlooked by merchants, especially by the Boston Store, who are making special effort to celebrate by big reductions in various lines, which will pay you to Investigate.

In the mathematics class one day at Wil- liams college, says Harper's Bazar, Prof. S§——, who was rarely made the subject of college jests, was excessively annoyed by some man “squeaking” a small rubber blad- der. The noise seemed to come from near a certain Jack Hollis, and after querying each of his neighbors, and receiving a nega- tive answer, Prof. S— said sternly: Tollis, do you know who is making that unbearable noise?’ Hollis, who had been the guilty person all along, assumed an air of stoical bravery and said calmly, “I know sir, but I prefer not to_tell.” Prof. S——'s angry face grew calmer, and with evident pleasure he replied: “I re- spect your scruples, Hollis. They do you credit, and should shame the guilty man, sir!” The Hodo The Demure Man. A demure looking little man approached the haughty clerk in a grocer's shop and meekly asked if he had any coffee to sell. “We have ground coffee,” said the young man. “No other kind?" “None. This is the best ground coffce on the market.” “‘But I don’t want it the little man braced up. I got some sugar here the other day with sand in it, and I don't want coffee with ground in it.
