\ JrSr REWARD. Tuesday after
noon Mr.. Jas, Spensley was grossly
insultod by one VIM Edgington, u
pronounced bully OF Washhurn. 1t
appears that some considerable time
ago one Of MIR. Spensley's teamstcrs
purchased mineral of Edgiugton con-
tracing to pay S3s.no which was
tho highest price at that time, but
Ivy the time tho ore was delivered
the price was two dollars better,
which advance Ed9ington insisted
on, contrary 20 contract, but failed
to get, The man from Washburn
is reported AS having since made
threats that he would have salts

the operation. Sponsley was in Os-
borne's store, which is his head
quarters whiloup town, whenEdging-
ton came in, and only few words
were exchanged before the teamster
and Spensley were pronounced liars.
This was questioned by Mr., s. who
said has aim was to DO gentleman
and deal squarely with all. The
bully supposed he had his victim
scared and showed his fist in Mr.. s, =
face, when he was pushed back n
respectable distance, Edgington then
made a savage strike at Spensley
with his fist, hitting him on the side
of the forehead Mr.. Spensley had
already taken more abuse and in
suits than is common to man, and he
was no sooner struck than he re-
taliated, knocking man, boxes and
other things promiscuously in a
heap. But for timely Interference
by Mr.. Osborne and Mr.. VIM. Balm
bridge, Edgington would have had
queer lot OF satisfaction to retreat
with, as Mr.. Spensley, whose grip
is like vice, had tho fellow by the
throat, holding him Mt bay. 1t is
but justice to Mr.. Spensley to say
TINT he was defending himself from
the charge Of an insulting bully,
and his many friends will be glad
to hear that he was so well able
to do it.--Tribunc.

manner, a voice Of bell-likc clear
ness, faultless pronunciation and
fine dramatic action. These sew
