over the wire from the third ward
and in less than ten minutes other calls
of the like nature poured into the po-
lice headquarters this morning. The
lights were flashed over the city and
two officers were hurried to that dis
trict to try and prevent, what the resi-
dents thought to be, an attempt to
murder.
The officers tracked the two men by
the gossip of the women in the neigh
borhood and found that they had gone
into the country south of the city.
The police followed and soon met the
big white fellow, still being chased
by the colored man, only they were
headed for town. E
The two authorities made capture
of the pair and were completely sur
prised. 1t was only two pugilists out
for their morning road work.
Luck Mccarthy. the Fargo white
hope and Darrell Smith, a colored
fighter of some prominence in the
northwest had decided that they would
take a run this morning together, for
their training stunt. When they went
through Island park, they made good
deal of noise and Smith, thinking he
would have little fun, shouted at Nc
Carthy in a threatening manner. His
actions were noted by number OF
women, who sent in the call to the
police.
The two pugilists have promised not
TO repeat the trick and again cause
the police and matrons Of the city SO
much worry and trouble.
