BLOOD AND WHISPERS FLEW.
Lively Scrap at Vineyard, In Which
a. Woman Took Part.

Provo. Dec. 2S.-There was a lively
fracus at the little town of Vineyard
last evening, which was participated
in by John and Elias Sorensen and c.
c. Nelson and his wife. The Soren-
sens had previously had trouble with
the Nelson's over minor matters and
there was bad blood on both sides.
These parties came face to face last
evening, driving in opposite directions
in wagons; Mrs. Nelson states that
these brothers began the trouble by
saying they would give him and his
wife a good thrashing. Nelson sprung
from his wagon, as did the two Soren-
sens. and the battle began with blood
and whiskers flying in the chilly air.
Nelson's wife took some part in the
ARRAY by way OF coaching her plucky
husband, who was proving the best
man in the fight, and she received a
slap in the fact from one of the OPP
ponents.
Warrants were issued today and
placed in the hands OF the sheriff for
the arrest of the Soreusens.
