The Grand Jury went into court this
morning and asked for further instructions
as to what should be done in the matter of

them. They stated that the defendants
claimed the fight was put up thing. The

the fight, whether real or pretended, was
mlsdemeanor, so it is likely that the sluggers
will be indicted.
\ correspondent writing from Ogden says:
About u o'clock last night there was IA
false fire alarm. The SCOT in the chimney
of Mr.. Buckmiller's new business block on
Main street took fire, and the blaze issuing
therefrom caused momentary consterna-
tion. The fire bridgade was out in full
force, but found nothing to do. At about
the same time the interior of Pullman car
at the depot caught fire and was greatly
damaged"

A city subscriber complains, that twice
within the past week he has sent his
daughter, aged IA years, to Main street after
dusk for the purchase of neoessaries and
each time on her return she has been
accosted by well-dressed man in buggy,
who strove to entice her into his buggy on
the plea of taking her home, as he knew her
WE'LL he said. He neither knew the girl nor
ever saw her before. There is a short and
sweeping punishment in store for this fellow
if the girls father can chance on him.
