counter took place in the upper story OF
the Dudley building and was between
Mr.. Pincus and Mr.. Huntington. 1t was
the outgrowth OF remarks over the
manner OF doing business and the great.
est harm was done to the glass Of one of
the doors. Postmaster Wilkinson says
he separated the combatants and If he
had not done 80 Huntington would have
killed Pincus with pair of hop tongs,
but DR.. Hare claims that from what he
could see of the fight neither of the
participants were worthy of being chased
as puglists and that it was wrestling and
match rather than manly bout.
One of the amusing features OF the affair
was that the participant who got the
worst of the encounter had previously
approached an attorney for advice as 20
how much it would cost to whip his
"traducer." The attorney told him to
20 ahead and he would see that the JUS
tice costs did not exceed $3.50.
Senator Squire acknowledges that his
senatorial campaign cost him an I'M
known amount OF money of which he
has the data for upwards of $4,000
Judge Turner says that his Olympian ex-
penses were $4,000. To figure down
closely this expenditure would mean a
couple thousand bottles of wine (strictly
at headquarters) ; twenty thousand cigars ;
ten barrels OF whisky, and several boxes
Of red apples, with couple of thousand
dollars for hotel expenses. What time
the boys must have had during the first
three weeks of the legislative session and
how poorly they will fare from this time
on unless they have fortified themselves.
A delightfully."- bit of nonsense is that
successful farce-comedy 'McSorley's
Twins" which has forced its way into

dialogue, amusing complications, excel.
lent singing, and sustained interest,
"McSorley's Twins" is certainly a won
der. The company is headed by Fergu-
son and limerick and the support in
cludes 81 Of the cleverest specially artists
in the profession. They appear at
Msson's opera house Saturday evening.
