And \Vholo Squad Files in For Vnrlons OffoUBcn. About 0 o'clock last evening a couple of men named Frank Smith , and Frank McLean , had some trouble on Twelfth street , just below Douglas , which resulted in the latter being stabbed by the former , with a penknife. McLean is an employe of the hardware firm uf Dolan it Lang- worth , nnd Smith ia a railroader from Sioux City. The former was cut in the left breast , just above the region of the heart. The knife was only prevented from doing fatal work by coming in contact with ono of the riba. McLean was taken to Dr. J. 0. Panter'sdrug store , in the Millard block , whore Drs. J'antcr and H.V. . Hyde dressed the wound , The appearance at first in dicated that ho had been cut through the lung but examination proved it to be only n flesh wound. Oflisor Eurk arrested Smith and lodged him in the city jail , and McLean was taken to a house on Two ft h street for the night. DAD ON THE CITY. Mr , 0. Morris , an employe of the white lead works , fell off the em bankment on Seventeenth and Far nam last evening , and was quite badly hurt. Ho was taken to the city jail , and 0nicer Bark called in Dr. Gross man , who gave him the required medical attention. Morris was insen sible when picked up , but had no bones broken. He ia a largo nnd portly man , weighing about two hun dred pounds. Mm wife was sum moned , and took him homo hto in , , the evening. He wns intoxicated s when he fell , but that will not release .f Iho authorities from responsibility , Jr nnd n suit for danwg.'s is likely to fol- low. The county will probably bo the defendant. This place ought to have been fixed up long nio. FOUQEUV. A man was arrested for forging an order for his moni h'a pay and pissing the same F. Jl. Smith , who keeps a saloon on Chicago street.
