A fracas occurred at the hotel

with knives, aud John Husl was
wounded in the head with shot
from revolver in the hands cf
Miller 5. Jones, the proprietor Of
the hotel.
There are so MANY stories
afloat dis to the cause of the trou-
BILE, that the News d eS not deem
1T wise to say anything at thus
time THAI would influence pu ,lic
sentiment in favor OF one or the
other of the parties concerned.
1t seems that a party of Rob
ertsdale miners were staying at
the hotel, and that they had re-
tired for the night Thomas Hus-
Ter and his son John wet up
stairs IN the hotel, and the pro
prietor hearing racket, went up
and asked the Huslers to leave.
This they declined to do, and a
free hight ensued. When it was
over, John Ausler had a bullet
wound in his head, and the Jones'
es-Adolphus and Miller-were
pretty badly cut with knives.

Having thus attended TO the only

The reason that so many jokes
are made about woman's age lies
mainly in her strong dependence
on her looks. Men, vain as they
are, arevain more of their trength

joking will cease.

was the common verdict among the Gus,
toners that Mr. Davis had emuloyed most
obIiging and pleasant salesreople to assist
him. As the clerks have for the most part.
been the same ones employed from the
first annual sale, all conceived the idea
that they could most fttingIv commemo-
rate The event by q banquet. This meeting
with the appreciation of ell. an oyster
supper with all that goes to make such an
affair enjoyable was prepared by all the
ladies, who set tables for forty eight in
the Masonic dining hall. F.B. Lang. to
whom credit is due for the finely cooked
oysters, and Mrs. o. H. Mossman. who
offfciated at the coffee boiler and whose
fame for good cup of coffee needs no
comment here, announced at ten that
bountiful repast was awaiting M. Davis
force Of assistants and their invited
friends. 1t is needless to say that all
present did ample justice to the supper and
| as fun aids digestion it is safe to say that
none suffered from indigestion that night.
| At the close, Mr.. A. P. Underwood acted
| in the capacity of toastmaster and in few
well chosen remarks, referring to the sue
| cess CT the sale and the pleasant relations
existing between Mr.. Davis and his able
corps OF helpers, then presented him as
souvenir OF the occasion from all the
| assistants solid silver dessert spoon with
| the word Peerless beautifully engraved
in the bowl and ss19O6' on the handle As
this was complete surprise to Mr.. Davis
| his ready wit for a second deserted him,
but, rising, he thanked them all most
heartily for the beautiful reminder and
for the general feeling of good comrade-
ship. Messrs. Winslow, Wright and Lang
all helped by their witty remarks to make
the affair q most enjoyable event and all
voted it one of the pleasantest times in
| their lives.
