tyofthe Law Inadequate.
In police court yesterday morning, Judge
LETTERS fined Joshua Rtne $50 and costs
and would probably have Aued him more
had that sum not been the highest one he
could impose, f,r making an unprovoked
assault ON Mr.. Bernie McMechen. Of the
commission firm Of Haase 4 McS!echen.
The circumstances connected with the rs.
sault are these:
A little over one month ago Mr.. Nc.
MeChen hired carriage from Rine's
livery establishment for some entertain.
ment, contracting to pay ~ for the zig.
Monday afternoon Rine's collector called
on Mr.. MCAIeChen and presented Q bill
for s. Mr.. McSIechen said II was too large
and that he wonld not pay 1t. The c0llec.
tor answered that II 1t was. not paid Rine
would sue for II, Mr.. McMtchen having
no desire 10 be sued stated that he would
call and see R;As OIL Ills way TO supper.
About five O'Clock he called at the 50.
loon Rine runs in connection with his
livery establishment and was directed to
back room where Rine was. He pro.
tested sgainst the size OF the bill. Rine
said that on that evening the carriage had
made four runs. Mr.. MCMeChen begged
pardon for contradiCting and said. that
that was not 80. Rne thOn applied 10
him vile epithet and said, Go d.
you, I'm liar, am ~ Mr.. McMechen
denied having called him a liar, and asked
not to be spoken to In such q manner.
He started to leave the room, when Rine
dealt him a stunning blow behind the
ear, knocking him almost senaeless and
telling him to the floor. Rine then
pounded him In the face, backing both
eyes and making several cuts and contu.
sions on his face aud head. McMeChen
at last managed to regain his feet and get
out. Meeting Officer Heslop, he had Rine
arrested,
Ia police court Rtne endeavorCd to
prove that McMeChen raised his hand 10
strike him frat. Those who know the
relative sixs and fighting merits OF the
two persons naturally smile at this ssser.
ton. Mr.. a.eChen could stand no earthly
show In a contest with Rine. Yesterday
Mr.. McMechen made application before
Justice peterman 10 have Rine put under
bonds to keep the peace, and this case
will be heard this morning.

almost impossible to save the houses
located on the same square.

ZINE IN NONrM wnEELIN0.



At4;l0 o'clock yesterday afternoon an
alarm Of fire was sent in from box 10, at
the Vlgilsnt engine house, occasioned by
the ditcovery that the roof of the two
story brick house az No. % Seventh street
was burning briskly. The FIRE was around
the chimney, a defect in which was prob
ably the cause Of its starting, and 1t had
evidently been burning underline shingles
for some time before II broke out.
A high wind was blowing at the time,
and 1t was fortunate that the Nigilant
company was so close at hand, else tho
probabilities are that the house and sur
rounding property would have been en-.
tirely destroyed. The rest Of the depart
ment made fair tino.in getting to the 10.
cality. The Atlantic engine was little
late, the horses being at the blacksmith
shop when the alarm was sent In.
AS soon as the ladders were raised aud
the hose carried on the roof the fire was
under control. Several OF the fremen
narrowly escaped rolling off the roof at
one time, owing to Its 10y condition.
pied by he family Of William Tugste,
hostler at the Vigilant, and the lower part
by that Of John Dumas. Before any
household goods could be removed the
water was pouring down into all the
rooms. More loss was occasioned by
water than 10y Gre.
The house is owned by Mr.. Daniel
sChambra, and was insured in the Ger.
man Insurance Company Of this city for
$500. It was damaged to the extent Of
about $3.50. FuSate and Dumas both aus
tanned some loss and were put to great In
convenience.

AS TO RxHiplTs.
The power for machinery on exhibition
would OF course be furnished by the TX.
position, but no doubt Is entertained that
here, too, one large engine, or several, II
desired, steam and gas engines and water
motors, could be- secured TO furnish the
needed motive power without expense to
the association, the builders Of the engines
or motors placing them on exhibition.
Such place Is always a good mart for the
sale oil engines and machinery. When
did a manufacturer ever secure as great
an advertisement at 80 slight a cost as the
builder OF the Corliss engine which NOV

The local manufactures will contribute
machines working in the processes OF cut

establishment in operation is also contem.
plated-in short there is scarcely an end
10 the local exhibits that eau be devised.
OF other processes, little understood
here, a special feature will be made. The
dry goods men will be asked to secure q
silk loom, doing plain and brocade work,
and the various processes through which
tho fabric goes from the cocoon 10 tho fiji
