About O'Clock yesterday morning. it
being too carly tor the other boys to be
out, little Johnny Gibson. a colored lad,
amused himself 10y throwing stones into
the house of a negro women named Mrs.
Green. living on Thirteenth street, which
very naturally aroused the hot blood of
that lady, and she went for Johnny.
Johnny's mother thereupon became in
terested and took hand In the fracas,
and the party had a real old time wool
pulling. When the rumpus had got
very warm, Green. the partner OF Mrs.
Green, who has stood by her for these
many long years, came upon the scene
and attempted to pacify the woman. lie
laid his hands upon them gently and was
about to separate them, when Gibson,
the husband OF the other woman and
father OF Johnny, walked up and re-
marked that he'd take little OF that in
his'n, and he and Green had a bout.
Brooms, clubs and other implements
usually brought into service by the col

freely used, and the devil was to pay

him what time II was. While he was in
consultation with the negro, the white
man came up and asked the negro for a

seized him; and then the negro struck
him and knocked him down. The story
