You see, I have an old friend named Elihu Beasly, who is a Burtnett, and that he served In the place of signature of the firm his brother, A. Burtnett. Chicago milk was the indirect cause of a serious accident at Tattersall's last night.

A costly tragedy was narrowly averted and Mamie, the giraffe, now has her neck supported by splints. This dainty four-footed animal refuses scornfully to touch the bluish fluid supplied to Ringllng Bros, under the name of milk, and has shown the same disinclination to imbibe Chicago water. She would have nothing but milk from winter quarters at Bara-boo, and "Giraffe John," her attendant, insisted on getting a fresh supply daily. Yesterday the milk can was set down in the office and Mamie's faithful friend could not find it until 11 o'clock. She refused to eat anything for supper, and looked dejected until the milk was found.

The accident was caused by the animal's eagerness to drink. She had her head between the two top bars of her stall and John was holding the drinking pan outside. She crowded him so he slipped, and in trying to catch himself shoved the pan through the next lower space in the bars. The hungry giraffe followed the pan with her nose and got her long neck securely twined about the bars. She became frightened and fell to her knees, causing her neck to be severely wrenched, and lay limp and apparently dead.

John was distracted. Mein fraulein, mein Mamie vos dead," he said, wringing his hands with grief. Pearl Souder, the elephant attendant, Mr. Burtnett said wnen tne summons was exceeded by the General Postoffices in Chicago, New York, Philadelphia, Brooklyn, Boston, St. Louis, and Cincinnati.

A Jury in the County Court decided yesterday that the stock in the Chinese store at No. 323 South Clark street does not belong to Hip Lung, and that as a matter of fact there is no such individual as Hip Lung.

The name is merely a trade name to designate a company of Chinamen numbering between fifty and sixty. Some time ago Frank Staar, a contractor, recovered a judgment in the Circuit Court for $3,000 against the Chinaman who is known as Hip Lung and Sam Moy and several others for work which he performed on a Chinese World's Fair theater. The Sheriff levied on the Hip Lung store and took possession of the place. Then over half a hundred Chinese filed petition in the County Court under the statutes to submit the question as to who were the real owners of the property. The petitioners declared that the store was not owned by Hip Lung, alias Moy Chue, as he was named in the execution, but was the property of the petitioners, who are a sort of stock rrof.

O'Brien's Trial. In the O'Brien murder trial before Judge Iteeroan yesterday the day was consumed mainly In hearing the police who figured in the arrest of the saloonman and evidence relating to revolvers which he owned. O'Brien's second revolver, which was not rsed in the killing of his wife, was first mentioned in the testimony of Sergt. J. S.

Chap-pell. This was of 32 caliber and was found in O'Brien's overcoat by the police. It was loaded in every chamber and had not been freshlv discharged. Taken in connection with the admission of Mrs. Halversen, the dead woman's sister, that she had secretly taken a loaded revolver from the body of Mrs.

O'Brien before the police reached the house, it was regarded by the defense as a valuable discovery. Daniel Young, a hardware dealer. No. 921 West Madison street, testified to selling O'Brien a 38 caliber revolver last summer, which he exchanged in September for one of 32 caliber. This, the State will show, was the unused weapon found in the man's coat.

The greatest secrecy was employed in disposing of the article, it is claimed, and only those well known to the parties dealing in it were permitted to purchase it.

It is also said there are large quantities of counterfeit liquor goods sold in Chicago as well as certain sauces.

Gordon VnwMHnp; to Surrender His Riparian Rights. The proposed extension of Lincoln Park northward whereby 500 acres would be added to its present area seems likely to come to naught. Gov. Altgeld hoped to secure such, an extension ere the expiration of his official term. The.

Governor's pet scheme Is, however, blocked for the present. This unexpected turn of affairs was brought about by XT. Gordon, owning and representing 933 feet of frontage. His objection is based upon an unwillingness to surrender his riparian rights. Mr.

Gordon set about opposing the plan by attacking the surrender of the government's riparian rights in front of the United States Marine Hospital at the time the bill surrendering such rights came before Congress. It was here he made his influence felt and the bill was defeated. Secretary David S. Gear of the associated property-owners favoring the extension laid: It will cost less that $2,000,000 for COO acres. And this assessment would be spread over a considerable area, making the expense td the taxpaylng pubile scarcely perceptible.

It seems a great shame." Property-owners, together with the Commissioners, yet hope to overrule the objection of Mr. Gordon. They admit, however, the outlook is gloomy. coma ractt jiose to lii bttfn Ua Via Tiroo nnt linrrMnrifnl of my figure, and this horse was fifteen hands high ana weignea uw pounas. ine telegram said he paid $200 for it, but prob- it.

Geo. E. Marshall. Slakes a Plea for the Garment-Workers and the Hungry. Miss Ellen G.

Starr of Hull House makes a plea for the garment workers and their cause In these words: The strike of the garment workers is virtually over, but their sufferings are far from being ended. Having perhaps seen more of these brave men during the last four weeks than any, one outside their ranks 1 ask to bear my witness before the public to the one encouraging thing in this awful struggle, outside the growing public interest and Intelligence the really sublime heroism, patience, and self-control of the men. It was apprehended even by some of the most sincere friends of the strike when the work of relief began that there would be much trouble from selfish greed that many would take advantage of the situation to demand money personally from members of the Citizens' committee, and that the various local unions might complain of the proportion of the distribution. So far is this from having been the case that with a single exception no application has ever been made except through the regular channels of the local unions; the less suffering locals have voluntarily given up part of their due proportion to the others. The public subscription of the Citizens' committee and other efforts to raise money for the relief of the garment workers ceased with the end of the strike.

As cases of want constantly come to my notice and will continue to do so I shall gladly continue to receive and dispense to the best of my judgment any sums which may be sent me. People are still hungry in our midst. While the education of the young and of the public at large Is expensive at such cost, there is hope in it "or the future. Ellex G. Starr, Hull House.

When I went up to the stand, and was the only person there, great excitement ensued, and the crowd Shame, shame! because they all expected to see me killed In two minutes. But I knew my business, and before anybody expected it I was on the mule's back. What surprised everybody was I was on backwards, and lying on my face, with my hands clinched in the mule's flanks.

You see, it was an old trick I had learned several years before from an English horse tamer. When a man is on a horse in that fashion all the bucking and kicking it can do is just like being rocked in a cradle. So when the mule began its antics on me it amused me, though it scared the audience. The beast ran around the ring probably a dozen times, reaching for the ridgepole of the tent all the time with its hind feet, while I was as comfortable as if I was in bed. At last the poor mule came to a dead stand, all out of breath, and I dismounted amid the plaudits of the multitude.

44 1 never had any doubt from that day that I could make my way in the world. 44 Now, do not go off and make a poor Joke by saying that I succeeded by looking one way and riding the other, and that I have been doing so ever since. I made that joke myself, and it is copyrighted. Carter II. Harrison's Precedent.

44 Am I imitating Carter H. Harrison in adopting equestrian exercise? Not at all. I had a horse when I was Commissioner of Public Works, and found it a much pleas-anter way of getting around than in a buggy. But while I shall use my steed for business trips my main object in buying a horse is the benefit to my health which I expect to derive from my morning and evening rides. My physician tells me it will do me a world of good, and I believe it.

I am free to say, however, that I think on horseback the proper way for a prominent official to appear in public. 44 They may make as many mococycles as they please, but they will never supersede the horse where dignity and display are required. Of course, I have not the stalwart figure of Mayor Harrison, and a sombrero does not become me, but I hope at least to look better on horseback than any other way, besides enjoying myself immensely.
