The series of troubles at the car works, since the first of the year, culminated yesterday evening in the fetal shooting of John Knoder by W. R. White. Both men were employed in the moulding room and are what Is termed "scab workmen. Knoder has been at work for the company for a long time. He was at work at the time of the strike, but did not go out with the others. About the latter part of January Knoder received a terrible beating at the hands of strikers. The attack was brutal and cowardly, and Knoder was sent to the hospital, where he remained until several vfeeks ago, when he returned to work. He and White have adjoining "floors,", as the space where a moulder and his helpers work is called. In the afternoon about four o'clock the two men had some words over a "peg," a wooden arrangement used in supporting the ladle in pouring the metal into the caste. Later the men met, and White sent a bullet into Knoder's abdomen. Knoder was removed to the hospital, and White placed in jail. At 11 o'clook this morning the Injured man was still alive, but sinking rapidly.

The Democrats on Monday evening noted Frank Peker for township trustee. He was the Democratic candidate at the last election and was defeated by J. C. Reichert, the present incumbent. He has sold his grocery store and saloon on East Main street to his brother, expecting to be surely elected this time.

The Republicans on Wednesday evening nominated for the same office George R. Griuies, 'at present a member of the city council from tho First ward. A better man could not have been selected. The office of trustee in this township is one of more importance than the salary attached would Indicate. No officer in the oounty has such unlimited control of the public funds. A reckless, imprudent, inexperienced man can squander a good deal of money henoe the neccesslty of filling the office with a man of good judgment, careful and methodical in his habits, possessing good business qualities and of the strictest integrity.

Myers Bros., the clothiers, are back in their old quarters—rather, at their old stand, corner Fourth and Main—for their old quarters have been so remodeled and beautified as to be altogether new. A more pronounced success in the way of a business opening has never occurred in this city than theirs on Thursday. All day the store was thronged, and at night hundreds went away unable to gain admission. From the number of elegant souvenlers given away it is estimated that over 6,000 people passed in and'b'ut of the doors during the day. The musio of the Military band and orchestra wafc greatly enjoy«$rand p*»prietate, clerks and guests seemed delighted to meet within the walls of 'the comodlous, well lighted, comfortably heated salesroom, so completely filled with evory description of clothing and gents'furnishing goods. The ladies were particularly pleased with the children's department which {b the especial pride of the proprietors. They intend to make this a big feature of their business henceforth. And it is proper to say In this connection that the Myers Brothers care more for reputation than for money making just now. Being young men without families, with small expenses, they can and will sell goods at a very small margin of profit. They have adopted the strictly one-price system and all articles are marked with price in plain figures.

Chinese Leper in St. Louis. From the National Laundry Journal. An Associated Press dispatch says that the health department of St. Louis is considerably excited over the official report of a genuine case of leprosy in that elty. Drs. W. A. Hardaway and E. S. Jones had charge of the case, but the leper succeeded in giving them the slip and is still at large. He Is a Chinaman known as Choo Toy. Until recently he kept a laundry on 9th and Soulard streets and when the disease developed Dr. Jones w*s called in. Dr. Hardaway, a specialist was next called and discovered that it was a genuine case of leprosy. Saturday night Dr. Hardaway took the leper before a clinic in a medical college where the disease was exposed in all its gbastiiness. The matter was then reported to the health department, but when Dr. Dudley sent an ambulance after the leper he was missing. It is supposed that he ts in biding in one of the Chinese laundries about the elty. The officers are searching for the leper, but have not captured him.
