Fatty M'GiDDis seems to be about
as unfortunate in Little Rock as he was
in Memphis, for the Gazette, of Sunday,
has the following: "Mr. John Barnes,
who lives above this city, on the Fort
Smith railroad, appeared before the po-
lice justice yesterday, and swore out a
warrant against q hickman known as
Fatty M'l- inniF, whom he alleged
charged him seven dollars for hauling
him from the Robinson house to the
ferry boat. He swore to this in court,
and Judge Yerkes fined M'Ginnis, alias
Vance, twenty-five dollars and COM
mitted him to Jail in default of pay
ment. Before leaving the room the
prisoner insulted the court, using the
most OutrageOusly insulting language
that the ingenuity of slang can devise.
Pat Hicks, colored man, who was
standing too nesr M'Ginnis, received q
left-hand blow in the mouth, which he
repaid with interest, and was making it
hot for the prisoner when the police
separated them. This assault was I'M
proked. M'Ginnis goes to Jail twenty
five days for Overcharging a passenger,
fifty DAYS for contempt Of court, and
twenty. five days for fighting in court"
