The Rev. f. G. Millington, Presiding
elder of this Methodist Episcopal district
for four years, passed away at Dcnvcrvcry
suddenly last Tuesday. Deceased was
well known and highly respected through
out Colorado and Wyoming. His death
was a beautiful illustration of the r%csigna-
ton of the true Christian to the will Of the
Almighty. The funeral occurred attic
Glenarm street Congregational church,
Thursday, and was largely attended. Mr..
Millington was at NicolvIlle, N. Y, and
came West twelve years ago. The Adco-
cate, a Denver religious journal, pays a
glowing tribute to the memory of de-
ceased.

There was a large sized drunken row,
followed by four arrests, in suburban
Chicago, near Grow creek, Yesterday
morning. The castle of Madame Lewis,
a reputed cheap restaurant, was the scene
of battle. John Crafts, a darkey who
figured in a false imprisonment suit here
several months since, would prefer to
struggle single handed with an untamable
cyclone than to cope with the four merci-
less foes who disfgured his facial contour
and trampled on his carcass during the
melee. In the language of the victim,
for a time he tondly imagined that victory
was his for the reason that he had a choice
of four heads to punch, while his oppor
nents would lose time in searching
for his Uranium. OF course Crafts was
misled and afterwards bled, used as a
carpet sweeper, door nat and foot ball.
Two of the quartette are females. One
of the latter Yesterday placed atcheck for
the amount of one of the mems fines in
the hands of the marshal, but expressed
a determination.to pay nothing herself.

The misguided individual who was
jailed several days ago for pawning a val
liable watch chain which had been en-
trusted to his custody with the under
standing that he would dispose of it by
rattle and return the proceeds to the owner,
was liberated yesterday and advised to
seek another cline. The lady, to whom
the property in question belonged refused
to prosecute the man whom, several days
ago, she so vigorously maintained was a
heartless thief and INSCRIPTIONS rascal.

Stanley is the plain and u~npretentious
cognomen of a darkeY who came here
from Denver some time since and an
nounced himself as a holy terror. The
appellation fitted the character. He es-
tablished his reputation by chastising
every understood mar whom he could in
duce by insults and taunts to engage in a
brawl. Stanley participated in the riot
which occurred below the gas house yes
terday morning, but escaped the police.
In the afternoon he struck an unoffending
man in Smiths saloon on Seventeenth
street. He again eluded the officers by
fight, but will soon come to grief unless
he leaves the city.
