to arrest a man in a saloon, but no
sooner was the warrant shown than
crowd of miners attacked them with
drills, clubs and bottles. They retreat
ed backwards, protecting themselves
with drawn revolvers, when some one
in the mob fred two shots. The Off

accompanied them emptied their re-
volvers, thereby scattering the mob,
and then ran. The mob kept up
steady fire from places Of concealment.
Three of the mob were shot, but their

lice force to back up his officer.

volapuk.' Wheelmen rode without
lights and pedestrians walked on the
grass and it was all right.
II had been a great day for the
night force and a number of their
friends, including Aid. wilkins. The
fishing and bait had been good and
plenty down about Web Center, and
every one had had his share. A sand
papered hook had been used and the
catch was roughly estimated at 1 800
pounds, or about pound for each
pint of bait, and tho blue cnats were
as free in the distribution of the one
as they were of the other.
There was some dispute in the
evening as to where the fishing party
had been, some insisting that they
had gone up the river and others say
ing that they had gone down. Night
Captain Barney McCabe insisted they
had been up the Hennepin canal to
Silver lake. and Officer Billy Eberhart
was equally sure they had been over
on Hsystack slough. Other members
of the party were inclined to think it
was the island opposite Spinneyvil +,
and still others that IL was the devil

Others were more or less affected.
1t is understood the fishing was ex-

where small portions of the river
were found partitioned off with Stats.
In these some remarkable records
were made. the fish being perfectly
tame and docile. Officer Eberhart
