George Hawkins. a colored horse.trainer
got on spree last night, and fired pistol
IN saloon on l. street, between Third and
Fourth. Subsequently he created a dis
turbance in Browns saloon, at Second and
l. streets, where officers Farrell and Kent
who had been looking for him for firing
the shot found and arrested him. On the
way to the statiOn-house he was very noisy
and abusive, and quite a crowd fol-
lowed the arreSting officers to the station
house. Charges of disturbing the peace
and carrying a deadly weapon We're en-
tered against him.
John Smith, who keeps saloon in the
neighborhood of Front and q streets, and
his wife were arrested yesterday on a
charge of battery, preferred by George d.
wentworth. 1t appears that there had
been disagreement between Smith and
Wentworth, relative to n small amount the
latter owed the former. The parties met
yesterday morning near the foot of Q
street. when Wentworth was on his way to
work. and the two men got into a fight.
Wentworth was holding his own with
smith, when Mrs. Smith interfcred, and
with piece of wood beat Wentworth over
the head inflicting three severe cuts, one
about two inches long, laying bare the bone
Tom Norton, who fought Jack Dempsey
Saturday night, states that he was not in
proper condition to fight having sprained
an ankle last Tuesday and being compelled
to remain in bed much of the time from
that day until the evening of the fight.
He desired pOstpOnement, but the other
side would not consent. He thinks Demp-
sey acted unfairly in going in to knock
him out, under the circumstances, after
promising not to, and believes that if he
was in proper trim Dempsey would have
had difficulty in performing the job in six
rounds. Norton has a greatly-infamed leg,
but no one who saw him jumping about so
spryly in the ring would have thought
there was anything wrong with him.
