ee —_ A Man Stor bY tar Restotrd SurroR or mis DAUGHTER—SAD END TO A Moonticut WALK. Boston, April 18.—-Social circles in this city are agitated to day, by the shooting last night of a prominent Lrish citizen by the lover of his daugh- ter. Mr. John Lyons, the victim of the murderous assault, is a gentleman ol means and a man of standing in the community. He has, for a number of years, carried on the business of a wholesale grocer and liquor dealer at the corner of Beach and South streets, and his name has been associated with every public movement for the benefit of the city or its residents. He has been Commander of the Knights of St. Patrick for over three years, besides holding a staff appointment in the Ninth battallion of the State Militia, H. Lanman, a young man who resided { with his mother in Worcester street, has been for some time paying atten- tien to Annie, the youngest daughter of Mr. Lyons, but his suit has not been tayored by the young lady’s ee and they have repeatedly forbidden her to have anything to do with him. This; probitation she has disregarded, and on various occasions she has met him clandestinely, and has corresponded with him. LOVE AND MURDER. Last night she went out about seven o'clock, and, as it subsequently tran- spired, met her lover and had a moon- light walk with him. The pair reach- ed Mr. Lyons’ house about ten o'clock, and stood » few moments on the ae chatting. While thus engaged, the young lady’s father reached home, and jound his daughter in the act of disobey ing his commands. He upbraided her jor her conduct, and she fled into the house, leaving her father and lover alone. What passed between them is not known, but soon the report of a pistol was heard to disturb the quiet of the street, and Mr. Lyons was seen to iall heavily to the ground, as it was thought,mortally wounded. Twospecial officers happened to be passing on the other side ot the street at the time, and they at once rushed to the scene of the quarrel. Mr. Lyons had succeeded in getting on his feet, and the enraged jover was arrested in the act of firing a second shot. One of the officers seized his pistol arm and prevented the dis- charge of the weapon. The wounded man was taken into his residence, when it was found that the ball had entered his stomach, about two inches above the navel. The surgeons probed the wound, but could not find the ball. THE MURDERER ARRESTED. Young Lanman was promptly arrest- ei and taken to thestation house. He was subsequently confronted with the dying man and fully identified. The frantic girl, distracted between filial love, and the affection she bore for her betrothed, rushed from the house and sought the cell where he was confined. She tore her hair and bemoaned the fate of young Lanman, but was refused access to his presence. WHY LANMAN WAS NOT ACCEPTED. The cause of Mr. Lyons’ opposition to Lanman, was not his religious belief, as las been alleged; but the fact that he has no visible means of support, he living with his mother and not being employed in any business. Mr. Lyons would not have objected to him, no matter what his religion might have heen, provided he was a fit companion for his daughter, and prepared to maintain her in a proper manner. The shooting affair has created a painful gensation throughout the city.

April 24, 1878—2i The Greatest Medical Discovery since the Creation of Man, or since the Commencement of the Christian Era. There never has been a time when the heal- ing of so many different diseases has caused by outward application as the present, It is an undisputed fact that over half of the entire population of the globe resort to the use of ordinary plasters. Dr. MELVIN’S CAPSICUM POROUS PLASTERS are acknomiedged by all who have used them, to act quicker than any other plaster they ever before tried, and that one of these plasters will do mBre real service than a hundred of the ordinary kind. All other plasters are slow of action, and require to be worn continually to effect a cure; but with these it is entirely dif- ferent: the instant one is applied the patient { will feel its effect. Physiciansin all ages have thoroughly tested and well know the effect of Capsicum; and it has always been more or less used as @ medical agent for an outward application ; but it is only of very recent date that its advan- tages in a porous plaster have been discovered, Being, however, convineed of the wonderful eures effected by Dr. MELVIN’s CAPSICUM Porous PLASTsRS, and their superiority over all other plasters, they now actually prescribe them, in their practice, for such diseases as rbeuumatism, n in the side and back, and all such cases as have required the use of plasters _orliniment. After you have tried other plas- ters and liniments, and they have failed, and ou want aeertain cure, ask your druggist for yR. MELVIN’S CAPSICUM POROUS PLASTER. You can hardly believe your own convictions of its wonderful effects. Although powerful and — in its action, you can rely on its safety or the most delicate person to wear, as it is free from lead and other poisonous material commonly used in the manufacture ef ordin- ary plasters. One trial is a sufficient guarantee of its merits, and one plaster will sell hundreds to your friends. Ask your druggist for DR. MELVIN’s CAPSI- cum Porous PLASTER, and take no other; or, on receipt of 25 cents for one, $1 for five, or $2 for a dozen, they will be mailed, post paid, to any address in the United States or Canadas, MANUFACTURED BY THE NOVELTY PLASTER WORKS Lowell, Mass., U. 8.
