 the Gardiner block, was arrested yes- terday morning for selling liquor to In- dians. There were previously two similar cases against him. In the first it appeared that the Indian who testi- fled against him was mistaken by him for Mexican. In the other cases Mir. Kirschoff denies the charges and says that they were made because the h. dians have it in for him. Persons living anywhere within 8 radius of half dozen blocks from Block Al are again com plaining of the gayety which prevails ln that district. On Thursday night there was 8 dance there attended by shouts, profanity and other disturbing and sleep destroying incidents. The orgies were continued until so near morning that it wasn't worth while for those who had lain awake all night, to go to sleep at all.
 James Rennle hit P. J. Clark over the left eye last night, reopening an old sore in double sense. The place where MT. Rennie's fist landed had just been the location of an abscess of two months standing, resulting from the stlng of poisonous insect. The attack was also the result of previous trouble between the parties. Clark had made complaint against his antag- onist few hours before. charging him with assault, and a collision was mar rowly averted at that time. The affray happened at the corner of Washington and First streets.
