the students present, who was evidently
heeled himself for a combat with mad
dogs, pulled out a pistol and made the
interor Of the sanctum echo with the
sound Of battle. Two shots were fired at
the animal, both wounding him severely
and disabling him, whtn the men fell
upon the dog with sticks and quickly
dispatched him. The carcass was
dragged from the church, but it was some
time before everybody settled down
again and many of them, indeed, had
no ears for preaching the balance Of the
night.
The ladies stood the ordeal remarkably
well, only one of them going off in a
faint, but it might have been worse had
not the voice of the pastor standing on
the pulpit been heard above all the din
and tumult. The dog had been shot at

nearly a semi-circle, and this enclosed

meal consisted of bacon, beefsteak and

trunks, some Of which will measure over
five feet in diameter, are broken and

Which One of the Rivals in slain.
Sioux City Journal.
About year ago young woman
namedEallie Craig, living between Love
land and Honey Creek, was the sweet
heart and promised bride of William
Moss, young farmer who resided in
Loveland. In few months il was
agreed that they should be married.
Before the wedding day arrived, how
ever, trouble arose between the lovers
over the somewhat attentive presence OF
John Points, also a young farmer, who
resided near Honey Creek. Moss and the
girl quarreled and separated and she
was thereafter the beau of his rival.
Subsequently the first lover and the girl
met again and partially made up their
differences
This enraged Points, who had come to
regard her as his own, and he thought to
pick a quarrel with Moss and in some
way get an excuse for putting his hated
rival out of the way. The men met or
two occasions during the past three
months and each time had a quarrel and
would have fought, hut were prevented
from doing much damage by the circum-
stances and parties who separated them.
AT a dance about ten days ago the
rivals again met and came to blows.
They were again separated and the girl
was appealed to to determine the question
by choosing the one she liked best
She was unwilling TO do so, but said that
she would so with the one that she who
proved himself the best man.
1t was accordingly agreed that time
and place should be fixed and there the
men should fight it out the one who was
whipped to forever relinquish al claims
to the hand of the cause of the trouble.
The dispute by this time had been so
widely talked of by the people of both
Loveand and Honey Creek that a
natural jealousy between the two places
easily caused the citizens of each to take
sides. The place of the fight was agreed
upon as half way between the respective
residents and the time Thursday after
noon.
a man from Loveland seconed Moss
and Points brother acte as his second.
The fight was moi to be conducted ac-
cording to any specified rules, but in the
most approved rough-and-tumble style.
When Thursday afternoon arrived
about sixty people were on the ground,
among whom was the girl over whom the
contest was caused, to witness the brutal
affair. The seconds stood with cooked
revolvers in hand and warned no one to
interfere. The men commenced fighting
fiercely.
They used fists, heels and, in clinch-
ing and tumbling about rolled over
a large area of ground. The fight lasted
tifty-tive minutes, and throughout was
one of the most brutal character. 1t was
brought to fatal conclusion by Points
strength entirely giving away, and then
Moss, with the last efforts of his mad
ness, stamped upon his PROSTATE foe and
crushed in his breast and kicked in his
head. The spectators at this overpowered
the seconds and dragged the men apart
Points was dying when picked up and
expired soon afterwards.

JUSTICE MULLEN'S TEAPOT.
The Logic of Events More Convincing than
Judicial Impressiveness.
Youths Companion.

Mr.. Justice Mullen, of the supreme
court Of New York, lived in the country,
but occasionally visited the city on ju-
dicial business. On one Of these visits he
brought with him valuable silver tea
pot which needed little repair.
Shortly after he had registered his
name at the st. Nicholas, he started for
a walk down Broadway with the teapot
in his hand, intending to leave il at a
silversmith's. As he came out Of the
door he tucked the teapot under his
overcoat.
Just then a detective happened to pass
| by, who noticed the movement and fol.
lowed the Judge, thinking him hotel
thief After going a few rods the detec-
tive thought he would arrest the old
man.
81 want you, sir" he said, tapping the
Judge on the shoulder.
For what, sir?"
ooh, you know come along with me-"
Come along with you? What do YOU
mean ?' exclaimed the judge, growing in
dignant.
ooh, no use of trying that on me you
come quietly TO the station house. that's
all That teapot under your coat-you
understand ?"
"Why that's my teapot" answered the
judge, in a decided tone.
"Oh, certainly BY all meansl Ofcourse
it's your teapot 'twon't do, though that
dodge is played out. Come along, and
don't botherm
"Sir" said the Judge, stopping and
speaking with judicial impressiveness, 81
am Judge Mullen, of the supreme court.
| don't know you, nor what you mean,
and do not wish TO be annoyed"
You Justice Mullenw exclaimed the
conceited detective, in a sneerinp tone.
"Oh, certainly No doubt about thatl OF
course you're Justice Mullen! Justices of
the supreme court are always going
down Broadway with silver teapots nm
der their coats But that cock won't fight:
so come along, or I'll make short work
with you"
Look here, sir ~ said the Judge; point
ing TO the store in front of which they
stood. "The proprietor of this establish
ment will at once identify me, and stop
his farce"
"All right 90 inp'
In they walked, but unfortunately the
proprietor was out. "Do you know this
fellow :" asked the detective ofthe clerks.
Not one of them recognized the Judge.
Let us return to the hotel" said his
honor, seeing the unpleasantness of the
situation am known there"
The detective sure that he had min.
al a.. ;.
might be well to have the teapot identi.
fed, accompanied the old gentleman to
the St. Nicholas.
When they both stood before the hotel
clerk, the detective wilted. He went out
a cheaper-looking, a cheaper-feeling man
than when he entered.
The story was too good to keep, and
when the next morning, his colleagues
saluted him as Justice Mullen" he rea-
lized the troubles of detectives life.

JOHN M0RRISSEY.
What senator Beck Thought of Him
as Presidential Candidate.

Senator Beck, of Kentucky, furnishes
innumerable newspaper stories. He is
a clever. whole-souled and bright-mind-
ed man, and can tell a story himself
about as well as anybody in the country
The following in relation to the Ken
tucky senator and his visit to st. Louis
during the convention of 1876, comes
from one who heard and saw all that is
related. The st. Louis Globe-Democnt
says:
Mr. Beck was in St. Louis, but whether
as delegate or speculator is immaterial.
He stopped at the Southern Hotel 1t
will be remembered that another dis
tinguished guest of the Southern on that
occasion, was the Hon. John Morrissey,
ex-prize-fghter and ex-congressman of
New York, who was here as the friend
:, Mr.. Tilden, and the opponent of Tam
many. Probably no man in the great
crowd Of visitors that filled the city then
attracted as much attention on the streets
as Mr. Morrissey.
On one occasion during his stay, Mr.
Beck having kept very late hours, rose
late in the morning, and found himself
quite unified for the days routine. So
| he went into a room in the rear of a
saloon on the southeast corner of Fourth
and Walnut, and finding a very comfort
able looking sofa, stretched himself out
| for a rest, which afterward became a
sound sleep. 1t must have been 2
| O'Clock III the afternoon, when he was
suddenly awakened by loud shouting on
the street. 1t was in behalf of Mr.. Nor
rissey, and was done by a crowd Of men
and boys who had followed that gentle
man into or out of Gregory's winter
Garden" near by Everybody on the
street seemed to join in the chorus,
"Hurrah for Morrisseyw
Mr.. Beck, about half asleep and half
awake, rushed to the street, and the
| first person he chanced to meet was Col.
Tom Nelson, of Terre Haute, Ind, a re-
publican in politicsand wag i'll prac-
tice Tom said Mr.. Beck, eXcitedly,
rubbing his eyes, "What do these fel-
lows mean by hurrahing for Morrissey"
just then there was another shout for
the big New Yorker, from a crowd surg
ing toward the Southern Hotel.
Nelson looked at Beck for a moment,
and took in the situation, as manifested
| by his drowsy eyes. Haven't you heard
the news? Why, Morrissey has been
nominated" +" said he to the kentuckian
Nominated for what ?" eagerly inqui-
/ red Mr. Beck.
.'For president of the United States,
by the national Democracy in conven-
ton assembled" said Mr.. Nelson, in a
tone of voice and with a manner of
which he alone is the master.
Great Godw said Mr.. Beck. you
don't say they have nominated John
Morrissey fol PRESIDENT"
Il do say it and that's what all this
hurrahing means replied the gentleman
from Indiana. The masses of your
party are Cor Morrissey."
Mr.. Beck had 10y this time opened his
eyes little wider As another "Hurrah
for Morrissey," greeted his ears, he said
to Mr. Nelson: "Well, the masses may
be for Morrissey, but his nomination
will play HI with the doubtful states. "
