FIGHT.
Judge B. F. Gurlcr and DR..
J. c. HenneSsy Come To
Flows In Reno.
Alteration Caused By Misunder-
standing Arising From Eet.

Judge B. F. Curler and DIR. J. c.
Hennessy Of Reno engaged in a street
fight in front OF the Farmers and
Merchants Bank in that city at 80
o'clock Monday afternoon For sever
al minutes, the Gazette says, they
were the center Of a crowd OF twenty
or thirty people that looked on with
excited interest. Finally Attorney
Boyd ana Mac Sample pulled them
apart, Judge Curler hasteuing TO the
court house to open session OF the
district court, While Dr. Hennessy went
TO his office.
According to DR.. Hennessy's story
che ii sht grew out OF a bet over horse
race. Judge Curler owns trottcr and
seyeral weeks ago Judge Gurier offered
10 bet $lo0 with DR.. Hennessy that his
>the Judges horse could 90 three mile
heats IN :: Il OF better. Ihe Dr.. took
,he bet and suggested that the money
be put up TO which the Judge replied
tnat their words were good lor 1t. The
race was TO come off on August 10Th
put that day Judge Curler WIS out OF
the city ami the race did not come off
Then Hennessv insisted that the race
should come of during the 1all races.
The Judges horse trotted during the
races, but failed to come near the 2;l7
mark, ana Hennessy considered the
bet won.
He met Judge Curler yesterday and
asked him ior the money AMI Curler
claimed the race had never been run
and refused 10 pay the bet. In the
quarrel that ensued the lie was passed
and the fight resulted.
Bystauders say that both men struck
wildly and that Curler finally caught
Hennessy about the waist and upset
aim. 1t this junetare they were
pulled apart Hennessy had scratch
on his chin and button OF his vest was
missing. Judge Curler had a scratch
IN bis lace. There were no arrests.
The above IS DR.. Hennessy's version
II the scrap. Judge Curler could not
be seen by the Gazette reporter as he
was holding court His version may be
entirely different, but whatever it is,
it cannot shield him from public CEN
sure Instead OF the Gazette saving
there were no arrests, it should have
been able 10 say that both men were
arrested and would be treated just as
ordinary persons are under like cir
.umstances.

SERIOUS CONFEDERATION
NEAR ST. CLAIR

Monday night the barn on the Fergu
son brothers ranch near st. Clair
burned to the ground, with all the con
tents, including harness, scales and
other ranch paraphenalia. A cali vas
also iucinerated. There was no in
surance on the burned property, which
Is estimated to have had a total value
Of $500
The cause OF the fire is unknown, as
the rentor, Henry Wilkenson was in
town at the time, but it is supposed
that in getting his horse from the barn
preparatory to leaving Tor this place
he dropped a match which started the
fire
That the fire was confined to the barn
seems to be a miracle, as It was only
short distance from the house, which Is
a fine structure, costing $4,000 at the
time OF its building. A large stack OF
hay was located only lew yards from
the burned barn, and that it and the
house were saved from the fire demon.
Is due to the heroic efforts Of Charles
Nightman and Herbert Gates, who Ia
bored throughout the course OF the fire
IN an effort TO cave them As the shin
gles upon the house would become igni-
ted they would pull them off and throw
them TO the ground. Frank Ferguson
is naturally very grateful for the aid
lent by Messrs. y ightmau and Gates.
