AS is p obably known to our readers,
some Of the gentlemen who are in the habit
of handling ps3teboard, have been request
| ed to call around at the Criminal Court
room and explain.
| Yesterday Mr.. Hans Myers had been be-
fore the court testifying in certain gambling
| cases, in which considerable bad feeling was
| generated. In the afternoon he walked up
to Mr.. Mccarthy, who was outside the raj
| ing of the court room, and struck him,
| knocking him against the railing with con-
siderable force. Mccarthy drew revolver
at once, but before he could fire il the by
ISLANDERS interfered and disarmed him.
Myers and Mccarthy were both put under
arrest at once, and were fined by Judge
Frazier, the former $25 and the latter $40.
They ere also put under bonds in the sum
of $1,000 to keep the peace for six months.
Myers explains his conduct by saying that
he had heard that Mccarthy charged him
with having sworn to lie, in giving his
testimony.
As may be supposed, the liveliest commo-
ton ensured when the pistol was drawn,
those standil G within range of the weapon
skipping like the wild gazelle beyond the
reach of danger. 1t is said that one young
man landed on the balcony outside the win
dow, making the distance from the Judges
stand (some fifteen feet) in two jumps.
Those who saw him were surprised at this
exhibition of agility on his part, and
thought it positively wonderful, considering
bis hair is so short as he wears it at present.
