HOT FIGHT IN SPENCER.
Combatants Pummel Each
Other Merrily-A Breach
of Promise Case.

Spencer June 5.-Chestnut street,
commonly known as Spencer's bowery,
was the scene of a hot time this after
noon. Oscar Tebeau and Louis Bour-
gault met in front of Arseneault's
block, and after several minutes Of
talk both men came to blows.
For about five minutes the air was
blue with curses, and the sidewalk COW
cred with blood. Both men were played
out after a time, and by mutual con-
sent ceased hostilities for time. In
few moments hard words were again
spoken, and the combatants went at
each other in vicious manner. Spec
| tators finally interfered and put a stop
to the row, and friends took the fight
| ers, dressed their wounds and cleaned
them up. This fight was only starter,
another one being inaugurated in a few
minutes after the finish Of the first.
The courage of the cOmbatants of the
second contest was not up to the
standard of the first. The principals
were ready to shake hands after a few
blows had been exchanged.
Henry Collette, 25 years of age, was
before Trial Justice Curtis this morn
ing, on a serious charge by Miss Emma
Tmibeault,20 years old. Miss Thibeault,
who is of very attractive appearance,
stated that Collette had won her affec-
| lions and promised to marry her East
er Sunday. When the time came, Col
lette. however told her that he had not
much work, and that it would be better
to wait until fall.
The young woman became suspicious
and feared he would not keep his word
Yesterday she met him and told him
that she wanted to be married without
any further delay Collette did not like
the idea and told her 80. Without any
further talk she had the warrant
served and Collette had to go before
the Judge. He was placed under $500
bonds, which his father furnished, and
the case was continued until Saturday
morning at 8 o'clock.
Bread and all varieties of fancy pas
try took a sudden fall this afternoon at
lower Main street. Mr. Berth1aume,
the driver of David Girouard's bakery
cart, left the horse alone while he went
into Peter Brault's house to deliver
| some goods. A small dog ran between
| the horses legs and the latter becom-
| ing frightened, dashed down Main
street and up School. At the corner of
the two streets the cart was overturned
and the contents spreal along the road.
