THB BRUTALITY OF A PARTY OF
YOUNG PLUG UGLIES.

YOUNG PLUG UGLIES.
James Frazer, young man of forbid
ding aspect and general reputation for
riot and disorder, was before Mayor ALL
mond last night, to answer the charge OF
assault and battery on Abba ID. Abbott,
the keeper Of an unlicensed liquor sa-
loon. The assault took place on Satur-
day night, Sept. 18Th.
The assault was desperate one. On
the night it occurred, according to Alb
bolts testimony, Frazer came into his
saloon with two companions, about s
o'clock and called for drinks, which
were given them. They went out with
out paying for what they got. Frazer
came in again at 10 O'Clock with three
companions, and repeated the expert
ment. Half-an-hour later he again en-
tered the barroOm, this time with four
boon companions, and, after taking a
drink, turned to 60 out without paying.
"See here, Frazer" said Abbott, at that
time, "who is to pay for all these drinks?
had to buy it in the first place." Fra
ger then turned and with a companion
bolted the door. "You s. of b."
said Frazer, "I'll let you know who is
to pay for the drinks" Abbott then
told them not to mind the drinks but 60
out. One man picked up the ice cooler
to throw it at him, and another hit him
oil the cheek with a spittoon. Abbott
then took down revolver, and declared
he would shoot if they did not let him
alone. Frazer had something tied up
in pocket handkerchief, and with this
he hit Abbot above the left eye, and
again over the fingers when he attempt
ed to cock the revolver. At this time
his wife started out to get the police,
and Frazer called, ''Kill the s. of b."

MURPHY, OF HAvERsTRAw, TAKES THE
o'LEARY BELT-A SIX DAYS WONDER.
THE FINAL SCORE.
Miles.

Another OZARK hoise" has won long
distance championship and another un-
expected score has been bung upon the
markers board. When the Ashley b.
was about TO be contested last june,
Weston, whose entry was late, vas AL
mtted, mainly b cause no one of the
contestants feared bim, and IN the result
he proved TO be the dark horse of the
race, and made the greatest score on
record. Among the entries for the
OLeary belt, emblematic Of the cham
pionship Of America, there was entered
the name of comparatively unkuown
boy from HaverstrAw. As the entries
were more numerous than the limited
number of twenty-five Contestants. the
list was revised and the names of those
who were considered as unlikely to
accomplish good score was stricken
from the roll. Among the TT jected as
Murphy, the Haverstraw boy. He
pleaded 30 earnestly that he was finally
admitted AZ cont estant, not because his
right to compete was apparent, but
merely because Uf the urgency of his ap-
peals. The rejected pedestrian develop
| ed into the "u.rk tOrse" of the race, as
Weston had in the London contest, and
while the famous champions went down
| on the track, the dark horse kept Oh
gallautly till the end and won from a
ntlu OF JDlrJy-nVo STARTERS. his score,
though not 80 great As the previous re-
| cord, was accomplished 10 easily and be
had SO many hours TO spare, practically
leaving the track five hours before the
exp ration of the allotted time, that he
could easily have made $50 miles had he
desired to do 80. In fact those about
him said that were 81 600 placed on the
effort he would endeavor to run twenty :
five miles at the close without break
AMI agree to do five miles inside of
thirty-fve minutes. He finished in the
fine condition in which he had besn
throughout the week-strong, well, and
free from serious blemish. A trifiing
blister on his heel was his only trouble;
his face was bright, his eyes clear, his
action easy and free from any stiffness,
and his general form excellent His
performance for the week was, consider
ing his youth and comparative exper-
ience, u remarkable one. heretofore he
has had but two records, and IN neither
one did he accomplish more than one
days work, breaking down from a bad
| ankle In his late Pro vidence contest.
