to watch a basket OF bread; he watched
his charge with the eye Of hawk, and
at half-past four o'clock he noticed a
negro stealthily move up to the basket
and attempt to steal a couple OF the
loaves. Henry, like faithful guard,
drew forth his gun and sent a leaden
messenger into the breast OF the thief
to inform him that somebody was
watching that bread.
The wounded man was talen to the
Third Precinct, where he gave his name
as David Jones; he was afterwards sent
to the Charity Hospital for medical

BEIJGERENT YOUTHS.
The Knife Brought Into Rcqnisition.
Ono or the Boys Dangerously Wounded.

About o'clock, last evening, cut
ting ARRAY took place nj the corner OF
st. Louis md Royal streets, between a
messenger Of the Bulletin Office named
A. Oliviria, aims Mercury, and two
young men, pages in the House Of
Representatives, which terminated in
ono Of the youths named John =.
Hamilton being cut and dangerously
wounded with n spring knife in the
hands Of Oliviria.
It appears that Oliveria went down to
tho State House, representing himself
as reporter Of the Bulletin, and order
ed one Of the pages to deliver n message.
The page was about to carry out tho In
str,iction Of the would-be reporter when
another page put In an appearance and
informed tho first that IL he delivered
the message that Oliveria had given
him be would report him to The
sergeant. alarms. Tho page then
refused to deliver the message.
Tho would-bo reporter waxed
wroth and swore vengeance on the
head OF tho page who had prevented
the first from carrying out his instrnc-
tions. at tho same time calling him u
g. b.. The boy took tho blackguardism
from Oliveria thus treating him with al
lent contempt. Nothing moro wins said
about tho matter until after the House
had adjourned. when J. L. Hamilton
met the page that had been insu!ted and
asked him II he would stand such an In
suit from OlIveria, vt the same time re-
marking that he would not.
The page and his friend Hamilton
walked out OF the State House 10 the
corner Of Royal and bt Louis streets,
where they met Oliveria. The page
walked up to him aud asked II he meant
what he had said. Oliveria said he did
and reiterated tho language used In tho
House, simultaneously striking tho page
across the face with his cane. The boys
clinched and were fighting, when Ham.
ilton attempted 70 separate them. OIL
veria then released his hold upon the
page and rushed upon him, and
drawing spring knife plunged IL twice
into his antagonists body, the first stab
taking effect In tho left shoulder Of
Hamilton and the other In his left side
just below the kidney.
Tho wounded boy was sent to his resi-
dencc, No. $40 Terpsichore street, where
his wounds were examined by DR., Hava,
who pronounced them dangerous.
Oliveria was arrested by officer Lilly
and locked up in tho Third Precinct.
