An indscriminato three.handod fight was
engaged in about % o'clock this morning, on
the commons east OF Lincoln Park, by n Ger.
man woman named olendorfer, an Irish wo.
man named O'Hnro and coiored woman by
the historic name OF Washington. The two
white women wero discussing In unmeasured
terms the ownership OF "domlnick' hon,
when the colored woman, who tried to play In
tho role OF mediator, became involved, and n
regular scrimmagc ensued. For q few minutes
the air was full OF hair and sulphnrlc mix
turo OF Iargon, which was simply terrible. Tho
dark-skinned sister, by reason OF her ponder.
Gus "corIorosity," came out second best,
amid salvo OF broken English,
while Mrs. Olendorfer got banged over tho
head with waterbucket, which Mrs. O'Hnre
swung with Sampsonian force. Tho owner.
ship Of the chicken was not finally settled, but
tho question as to who was the best "man"
seems to have been determined beyond the
perndyenturo OF n doubt. Mre. Washington
said "Dats do way wild poor white trash. II
'epcctabul people tries to glib 'om little nd
Vice, deys bound TO jump onto you wild dere
woepons." The weapons used in the gladi-
atorial contest were watcr-bucket and
broom. The German dame, who has n black
eye and u swollen head, threatens dire ven
geancc against 'dot nix for good Irish woman"
while Mrs. o'Haro has 'got 1t In for tho
nngur."
