were examined who swore that while
Scott. in company with q woman, was
walking along Market street between

them and insulted the woman. Scott
resented this and told him TO go, but he
refused and continued to follow them,
calling the woman vile names. A scuffie
ensued which resulted in Anderson
drawing knife and attempting to stabb
Scott
The party separated, but in a short
time Scott returned and meeting Ander.
son on Front street, near King, renewed
the quarrel with him. Anderson again
drew the knife. but Scott told him TO
lay it down and he could lick" him
Anderson then laid the knife on the
ground, when Scott. drawing revolver
from his pocket, fred two shots ia quick
succession at his opponent. He then
made his escape through the crowd, but
WAS arrested by Officer Weldin, to whom
he admitted that Ike Anderson had
done a dirty act towards him, and that
he went home, got his gun and shot at
him twice Scott was held in 81. coo
bail to answer the charge at the upper
court. Anderson, who had been released
from New Castle few days ago, where
he had been held, but not con sicted, on
a charge Of highway robbery, was held in

peared to prosecute him.

that they were both playing in the woods
yesterday afternoon, that Turskey had

stay OIL or he would cut him, and on re-
ceiving a defiant answer, stuck the knife
into Sanders arm, inficting a deep cut
which was dressed by DR.. Blocksom.
Sanders mother said she did not want to
press the charge, but she was obliged to
say that the boy Turskey was in the
habit of using the knife. Judge Ball
was perplexed as to what he should do
with the boy. He recommitted him to
ascertain if he bore a good character.
The same charge was preferred against
Bernard Carr. No. sos Church street, and
Mr.. Turner made similar request that
this case be postponed, which was granted.
