"MrRpER Most For1. W-On Friday night

cries of Murder!' coming from Il quiet
quarter of the city. The cries came fast and
loud. and visions Of - heavy item" in adj
vance OF our contemporaries 1oated before
us. We rushed rapidly forward, headed by
policeman Hall. Ere long we came to the
spot from whence these fearful cries CAM
\ lively dialogue was in course between
two persons evidently Of the colored
persuasion. One of them remarked ::
Look here, gal, YOU suttng IS acting
in de wrong direction to make sich
Il disagrccable motion a. dat wild your fist
agin ME. Look here. what you hit me fOr,

l.cks, vigorously applied, accompanied with
the aforesaid loud cries Of " Murder ~ We
entered. and the sable lord OF the humble
lodging gave the following description Of
the iracaS "Eou sec dis oomnn is my
wife, al we all was settin' down here. you

Of Illinois re-estabIshed the judiciGy OF
the State, not making any provision for such
court But in the schedule Of the oonsta'
