olz's pups crossed his path he kicked the ami
NAL. The yelps that Duttin's kicks aroused
brought Bucholz to the scene in a remarkably
short space of time. There was a row, and
when the smoke of battle had cleared away,
Duttin had a swollen eye and was minus a
collar. Yesterday he appeared before Justiee

for trial this evening.

fish a station on the Pennsylvania Rail

was placed at the crossing by the Erie
Company.
