One Mr.. Abe Wobrouskl, a German,
raised the mischief In Dallas yesterday.
He first got into trouble with widow
lady over an amount claimed by her to be
due her from Wobrouslli, which he dis
puied or rather put In claim against the
widow as a rebuttal. Officers were called
and hot tussle ensued. Wobrouski re-
lied on his strength against that Of two
plucky policemen, and chung like tiger
TO everything that he could reach that
was stationary, but finally his strength
failed or was comteracted by that of the
police, and he was kindly escorted to the
oalaboose with all the dignity Of a court
procession.

probability have been killed

ished his gun, demanded drink, and
proposed to kill the whole crowd IL it was
not "put up" He was promptly pulled !
by Police Officers j. G.. Alexander and
