SERIOUS CUTTING AND THUMPING
Three DIsgraccfui Affairs which
secured Last Nigbt-Soidters
paint the Town.

Last night, OF early this morning, was
good time Tor fights and rows, the Horn
Silver Fountain saloon, in the Wasatch
block, being the ground OF battle. The
principal participants were the proprietor
OF the saloon, biscuit-shooter OF the ST.
James, and several soldiers.
1t seems about 2: 80 this morning sew
cral soldiers got into Il melee in the
saloon mentioned and created 4 scene OF
great noise and some blood. \ few Sec
onds alter the disturbance started one OF
the soldiers rushed up stairs, followed by
three or more others OF our country's de-
tenders, who chased their fleeing com
rade up Main street. In front OF
the Capitol saloon they overlook
him, and at once all pounCed
upon him and beat him fearfully. -Four
gaping gashes were inflicted with pistol
butt on the head OF the poor fellow. The
police and nightwatchman hearing the
row rushed to the scene, but were too
late TO catch the offending roughs The
wounded man who was picked up for
dead, was carried into the Capitol, and by
the use OF restoratives brought round, and
on examination ii was found that he had
been very badly treated.
A couple OF hours later there was an
other row at the same place between
Fitzgerald and waiter OF the st. James.
1t appears that Fitzgerald was jangling
with some soldiers-probably the same
that were in the first tight-over ten
cents, when Murray, the waiter, stepped
up and proffered to pay the dime.
Thereupon Fitzgerald turned on Murray
with unbecoming words, which lead to an
attack with dirk. Murray received a
frightful and dangerous cut in the face,
the dirk entering the forehead just aboye
the left eye, and passing through both
eyelids into the left side OF the nose. 1t
is great wonder the ball OF the eye was
not ruptured. Fitzgerald was arrested
and taken to the City Hall, where he
left $50 for his appearance.
This afternoon Murray sworo out j
complaint against Fitzgerald, the charge
being assault to commit murder. The
trial is set Tor tomorrow at p. m. Theo'
dore Burmestcr is counsel for the defend.

But this did not end the difficulty at the
Fountain. At about o'clock this morn

No Reward.

In looking over the minutes oil the
City Council last night we failed TO dis
cover any appropriation for Il reward
for the removal OF the dead dog which
lies on Sixth East between First and
Second South streets. This same dead
dog has been lying there for three weeks
to our certain knowledge. During this
time the DEMocRAT has repeatedly called
attention 10 the fact, but the City Mar
shal, whose duty it is to attend to such
matters, has permitted the dog to
remain in the street, and let its decaying
carcass spread pestilence and poison
throughout the neighborhood AS he
has not got on to the scent OF this dead
dog on Sixth East street, how long will it
be before he gets on TO the scent OF those
who committed the outrage against Dick
son, Narian and Mckay? The city
should offer u reward for the discovery Of
the dead dog, and then the City Marshal
could put his wits TO work and in
time to get the reward, he would pen
citrate the mystery OF the dead dog and
its long residence on Sixth East street.
You tst the Marshal is q rustlcr when he
starts, but he has never got quite ready

SAM JONES VS.. BASE BALL.
Vte usun's" Estimate OF H's JPN
Ion on the National 9"me'

Rov Samuel Jones, q reformer OF sucu
nnbridlcd earncstness that he is SOME
times known as the Georgia Snakewaker,
has emitted this uncomplimentary anu
uniust sentiment regarding base pau
players:
az wouldn't wipe my feet on profess
sional base ball player" - v,.
II is well known, says the New YORK
SIM. that the reason the blacksmith
ybinped tho parson was because ne
,yanted to and because he could.
On that principle ono good reason
Uhy Brother Jones wouldn't wipe
his feet on a base ball player is because,
he couldn,t. This is the view OF several
ri orr esteemed contemporaries, but tnat
isn't the point. Jones is mistaken i'll his
estimate Of base ball players They are

loyal to their employees and the public

ably on some days, taking the country
through, $4,000 people go to zee tho

lows Who honestly exhibit their skill to
the delectation and benefit of their fellow
citizens, cannot be very profitable, tar
gets for the shafts OF such n smashing,
rripsnorting reformer as Brother Jones.
While collecting his varied and startling
material wherewith TO exhibit convinc-
ingy the worlds wickedness, Brother
Jones has doubtless seen a great deal,
but from his expressions we should say
that he had never seen base ball match.
II he hasn't, we advise him to go and see
one as soon as possible--and this advice
holds good for everybody, OF whatsoever
