Tom Hyer and the Benita Boy Stripped for q
fI~hf.

Between two and three o'clock on Sat
urday morning, the New York fancy"
came very near having a street fight be-
tween Tom Hyer and Heenan, the Benicia
Boy. 1t appears, from what information
could be ascertained-a strong effort, how
ever, being made to suppress the facts
that Heenan and quite number of his
friends, among them Jim Hughes, were in
the Dexter House, Broome street, about
the above hour drinking, and while there
Tom Hyer entered and joined the party.
After several drinks had gone the rounds,
dispute arose between the Benicia Boy
and Tom Hyer respecting their capacity
as fighters, when an effort was made to
draw them into fight by parties present
This proved successful, and soon words led
to challenge being given by Heenan for
an immediate fight. Hyer accepted the
offer, and both parties stripped off their
coats and neck cloths and repaired to the
sidewalk Here an effort was made by two
or three Of those dlsinterested to put stop
to the fight. While this was being done,
several persons attempted (to use their own
phrase) to ''doubIe bank Hyer. The lat
ter, however, finding out their game, drew
his revolver, and said he would shoot the
first man that made an attempt to interfere
with him. This had the effect of creating
some little alarm lest pistol shots might be
exchanged, and the friends of both parties
withdrew their men, and the fight was
postponed-N Y. Herald, July 25.

A FEARFUL LEAP BY PRISONER FROM
A Running TRAIS-Oficcr Bloom, who
started for Rome, N Y , last week with
Chas. II. Wilson, charged with forgery in
that place, has returned, and gives an in
teresting account of his journey eastward
On Wednesday night and when the train
was within fifty miles of the place Of desti-
nation, Wilson complained Of being sick,
and the officer repaired with him to an ad-
joining car, and slipped the handcuff from
his own wrist, but let it remain attached
to the prisoners. AS they went to re
turn to their former seats, and in stepping
from one car to the other, the prisoner jun
ped from the platform. The speed of the
train could not have been less than forty
miles an hour. AS soon as officer Bloom
could recover from his surprise, he sought
the conductor and had the train stopped
The position our official now found him
self in was by no means pleasant one.
lie searched a! one for Wilson for some
time, but without success. He then went
TO the nearest station, and secured assist
ance and again renewed his search, but
with no better success.
Two days afterwards, that was Friday
evening, he found Wilson at Huron, on the
Lake shore, and about twenty miles from
Clyde. He had got free from his hand
cuffs, but did not seem to be hurt much
by his fearful leap from the cars. lie was
taken to Rome, had an examination, and
plead guilty to two charges Of forgery, and
was committed in default of 81 900 bail in
each case.-Ctncinnah Gazette.
