Show Bl.oon LETTING. Two centlemen having partaken a little too freely of that beverage which steals away men's brains, got into a quarrel in front of Wells, Fargo's office yesterday afternoon, after-noon, and from words came to blows. They clineheiL fell on the sidewalk, rolled over and over, while ths smaller of the two kept a continuous tapping on his antagonist's nose, drawing the claret freely, which was liberally sprinkled sprink-led on the ground, and saved the watering water-ing cart the trouble of laying tho dust. When the melee was at its height the guardians of the city's peace interfered, in-terfered, and took the combatants to sec the Poctor, who will doubtless relievo them of their loo.se change, in the shape of V's or X's, to atisty tho outraged dignity of the city, which will probably cool their heated blood. Drunkenness aud fighting fight-ing are "bad medicine." and a dis-yraco dis-yraco to all who indulge therein. |
