az Sunday night, Weideman's 8

W Sunday night, Weideman's
Garden, on the Ripley street bluffs, was the
scene Of q serious.and probably fatal stab
bing affray. Itappears that young man
named Henry Stoddard, together With some
others, was making great deal of noise in
one corner Of the dancing hall, which was
not pleasant to those Who we're present, and
he va. requested to desist. Persisting in
his ungentlemanly course, Mr.. Wiedeman
took him and another young man by the
collar, and showed them towards the door
As he vas putting them out, the young man
Stoddsrd drew his bowie knife and inflicted
two very dangerous wounds upon the per
son Of youngster named William Herring
and . slight flesh cut upon Charley Deit-
mire, who was standing close by. Herring
received the knife in his side, and flesh
wound in the arm. The wound in his side
is considered very dangerous. but hopes are
entertained d that, with his etrong cons,itu
ton. he will recover. Before Stoddard
could be arrested, he made good his escape
and it is supposed be left the same night on
boat bound for St Louis.
The practice Of using knives on all ocea-
sions Of the slightsst provoeation, is becom-
ing altogether too common in this city, and
oct We measures sbould be taken to arres,
and srely punish the scamps who 80 pro-
mi.cuously WELD them. Every boy who
can raise the fuude for its purchase mus,
needs carry . bowie knife. and be 10 DO,
