 A CUTTING AFFRAY. There was cutting affray in the block last night between two MeXicans over the favor of a senOrita, or, possibly, only a senora. At any rate, one of them was s!ashed across t!le cheeks and another deXtous stroke across his brow let the skin fall down over his eyes so that his vision was obstructed and he could Tot see which way his antagonist ran. He was not, however. seriously injured The blood which ran into his eyes made them smart and filled him w3.h ami mostly against his adversary and rival. His looping brow was sewed up and he felt better. His rival having fled, he has clear field for the serOrita or the sonora in dispute.
 A SOCIALIST AFFAIR. -S. F.. Gus ley and Jeff BOles met at the corner of First avenue and Washington street yesterday evening. There was a dis pute about a broken wagon which Gus ley had loaned Boles, on one side. and about 100 grain sacks which Boles had jet Ousley have on the other. Ousley produced a knife and Boles, in self defense, fell out of a wagon under it's wheels. Accommodating friends in trying to eXtricate him. backed and for warded the horses over him so ire quently that he felt hurt and tired. Yet he got out in time to pick up a club and lambaste that Arkansawyer. MT. Gusley. over he head with it until he. too. felt tired. I has nothing to do with this story. but both these partiCi- pants are advocates of socialism, claim ing that a wagon owned by one man is the property of every other man, and grain sacks are common belongings Of all members of the universe.
 A MUCH WANTED MAN.-Some days ago Max Czuczka. a hitherto trusted employe of the New York store. left the city for northern Arizona points for the purpose of making col lectiOns for that business house. All data received since that time goes to show that as a collector Max was what might be called a genius. He was first heard of at Ash Fork, though not by any message from him. He was busy collecting. The suspicious of MT. Sam Korrick, his employer, were first ar oused by a $500 shortage in his accounts here. He then offered a reward of $100 for his arrest, and did some rapid tele- graphing. It was then that he got the message from Ash Fork, but by that time Max had moved on. MT. KOrrick next heard from him through a local banking house, which presented a draft for s35 drawn on him by Max, who was then in Fl Paso. By the time the wires could speak again Max had left that city and is now presumably in Old Mexico It was stated last night that further embezzlements had been dis covered which brings the total of his stealing up to nearly $l.500. Czuczka came here about four years ago and first secured employment as a dish washer at the Pacific Grotto. He was then promoted to waiter, when MT. KOrrick gave him employment as a clerk. He gradually gained the confi- dence of his employer until he was at times left in charge of the business. He is 53 years old. 3 feet Il inches in height and weighs about 120 pounds. He has a prominent nose, walks flat footed, with a slight limp, and wears a No. 9 shoe. When last seen he was dressed in a blue coat and vest. with light trousers and brown derby hat. Gambling was his downfall
