effort should be spared to bring
the. young hoodlum to Justice !:
and when found he should be
made to drive nails in the side
walks and live on bread and water
for at least ninety days.
DISGRACEFUL. - A most dis
graceful scene was witnessed on
South Cstreet yesterday (Sunday)
morning, in the shape of a fight
between two bull dogs, melted to
the act by number of middle
aged and older hoodlums. The
fight lasted nearly an hour, and
the crowd of eager spectators com.
pletely blocked the sidewalk. so
thrt women and children vending
their way to church were obliged
to take to the middle of the street.
Such a scene might have been eX-
pected on & street between Union
and Taylor, but hardly between
Taylor and the Presbyterian
Church. Both dogs were severely
injured, one being taken into the
store where he belonged, and the
Other-with his ears nearly torn
from his head, and one fore leg
glawed to the bone near the
shoulder-remained prostrate in
the street for hours. No arrests,
but the brutes who incited the
animals to the bloody conflict
should be hunted out by the 20
lice and fined heavily for disturb
ing the peace.
PRIZE RING. = Trevillian and
Hogan and their seconds and
hackers will to-day hold a meet
ing to arrange for the fight which
was to have come off last Satur-
day. The hackers of Trevillian
propose that the principals and
their seconds, two umpires and Il
referee, and six friends of each
party, making twenty-one in all
shall attend, and that no other
person (save, perhaps, reporters)
shall be allowed to know when or
where the fight is to come off.
Trevillian is determined to have
the stakes or a whipping, and his
hackers are so confident that
Hogan cannot give him the latter
that they offer to wager $1,000
more on the result. The fight will
probably take place beyond the
Cali .Ornia lines, where the num-
Der of United States Deputy Mar
shaIs does not exceed ninety per
cent. of the population.
DESTRUCTIVE FIRE. - About
two o'clock yesterday afternoon 4
fire was discovered in the large
stable at the Eureka mill, and be-
fore the flames, which emanated
from the hay in the loft, could be
subdued, the stable, with its con-
tents, was entirely consumed. W.
r. King, Superintendent of the
mill, lost two fine buggy horses,
besides which six tons of hay,
several sets Of harness, and many
other articles Of value We're con-
sumed. The fire is supposed to
have originated from sparks from
the blacksmith shop. 1t required
the utmost eXertionS of all the
men on the premises to save the
shops in the vicinity of the burn
ing stable from destruction.
IMPERTINENCE PUNISHED.-A
few days since one of the prize
candy pedlars on the Central Paci-
tic passenger trains, going West,
importuned a lady to purchase one
of his packages telling her he would
guarantee the package to contain
fifty cents in money. The lady
bought the box, opened it and
found nothing-as usual. She
called the boys attention to the
fact, and reminded him of his
guarantee, when the impudent
fellow said he knew there was four
bits in the box, and accused the
lady of having stolen it out and
concealed it. At this the lady
sprang to her feet, seized his
basket and threw it and its con-
tents out of the window and
slapped the boy in the face. The
conductor was appealed to, and on
hearing the lady S version of the
affair, backed, as it was, by the
statement of other passengers, he
locked the boy up until the end
! Of his division was reached.
