BAD WH1sKY.-Sunday morning
negro living below Curtis corral came
up to Officer Mckee. asking him to take
away an inebriated individual who was
claiming hog. Mckee went down and
succeeded in inducing the man to come
quietly up the street, when, it is alleged
he suddenly caught Mckee by the neck
cloth forming the sling for his disabled
right had, and choking him, asked him
why he took the nigger's part" &C.
companying the question with epithets
more forcible than polite. Mckee drew
his pistol from bis pocket with his left
hand and dealt the party blow in the
face, causing him to let go his hold
while the officer, half choked, took him
along to Jail. Mckee released him
shortly after, thinking he would go home
and sleep of his carouse, but instead he
came around again, insisting that he and
4 Mckee should fight duel, upon which
& that functionary locked him up again.
As the party in question is usually sober
and steady We refrain from giving his
name. He is probably by this time as
full OF regret as anybody that the occur
renee took place.
q He lives south and west of Main street
4 and has lassoed pigs on that thorough
fare until he is "old chief" he says, and
can take them every time. When the
