A shooting affray occurred between
two colored men on Monday last in
this city. Edward Rideout and VIM.
Brown, colored, brothers-in-law, both
of them being somewhat intoxicated
and armed with deadly weapons, got
into a row. The one carried shot
gun and the other was armed with a
revolver, and in the course OF the fight
Rideout raised his gun and fired, the
charge passing over Browns head.
Brown Immediately drew his revolver
and replied, firing twice, neither shot
taking effect. Enraged at not being
a good shot with the revolver, Brown
went into the house, secured gun,
and emptied both loads into Rideout's
arms and body, thus ending the fight.
DIR. Mccormick was called in and re.
moved the shot, the most OF which
had lodged in his arms. They were
both arrested by Officers Hollis, Tab
Ter, Russler and Hardy, and owing to
Rideout's injuries the hearing could
not be held until yesterday morning.
Owing to the absence of the prosecut-
ing attorney the hearing was continued
until Tuesday. Brown is in Jail on a
$500 bond.

Fire DESTROYS The Troy Laundry; :.

On Wednesday morning last fire
broke out at the Troy steam laundry,
on Swartz street, and before the flames
were subdued the building with its
entire contents was total loss. The
alarm was turned in shortly after
eight O'Clock over the new telephone
wires, which had Just been placed in
the building, and the Changing of the
fire alarm soon drew the firemen and
an immense crowd to the conflagra-
ton. The fire started in the dry
room and had gained such Roadway
before discovered that the employees
had to flee for safety, not having time
to save their cloaks or coats. The
telephone box, a few baskets and
some minor articles were all that Was
saved. The building was a frame
one, and the fire being famed by a
high wind, the firemen lad hard
task to subdue the flames. Had the
building stood adjoining others, there
is no telling where the fire would
have ended. The building was owned
by VIM. T. Stewart, and the laundry
operated by Dorm & Quenzel The
loss will amount to about s. 600 in
surance $1,000. The proprietors will
at once make arrangements for the
starting of their plant on new site.
