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.
