K0W AT FALL CREEK.
The entire neighborhood of Fall Oraek It
ttirred to itt deptbt by a row that occurred
(hire the day before Thanksgiving. From
the account given us, Misa May Sbankt
went to the postoffloe al Fall Creek kept by
Wm. Wilmot. He ordered her sway but
she refined saying tht wanted her mail.
Then a general row oocurred in which Mist
May, ilmott and bit better half, a Scotch
man aud New Griffin took an active psrt.
During the melee Mil. Wilmott's hand waa
bruised and Miaa Shankt waa thrown to Iht
ground t distance of nearly eight feet. Af
ter the row, all retired in good order, still
bad feelings were engendered, which result
ed in s warrant being sworn ont before Jus
tice Huunicut, chsrgiug Miaa Shankt with
assult aud battery upon Mrs. Wilmot. She
was given s trial before s jury who found
her guilty of the charge, but recommended
her to tbe lowest fine. Ths Justice assess
ed the Hue st $50.
Desiring to further contest the awe,
she refiiM d to pay tho fine, when she
was ordered committed to the county
Jail for 25 days. The constable, Chas.
KiraeiiKcr, brought the young Jady
here Thursday and dullvered her
to HIierill'Nolund. Friend have lire
cured Attorney Geo. A. Dorris to look
after the cane in her behalf. It is
claimed the jury was not sworn and
that she did not have a fair trial. It is
probable that other parties will be ar
rtwtcd in connection with the case.
One thing is sure, the jail la an unfit
place to incarcerate a young lady, and
that she will not be committed to the
game,
The young lady Is only 14 years of
age. It Is very likely that she will be
rek'aHcd on a habeas corpus proceeding.

A Mutaks Tbs Board of Firs Delegates
tome time since called ths annual
Firemen's election for Chiof Engineer snd
Assistant, to be held today between tbe
boars of 1 and 6 p. m. It now appears that
the board made a mistake in calling ths
election, aa ths city lawt provide that laid
election shall occur on the first Monday la
December, and that ten days notice shall bs
given in one of the city papers. Ths na
nce wai given but tbe wrong data was
named. It ia now too late to give a legal
notice, hence it it tbe general opinion that
an election next Monday would be illegal,
and therefore, the present offloars will bold
over until Deoember, 1892. This la nnfor
tnoate s both of tbt officers now ia power,
Messrs. Bellman and Drake, are on tbs
sick Int. Tbs best wsy to solve tbs mttter
would be for the gentlemen to resign, then
s special election could be held.
Hinre the above was written the
lloard of Fire delegates haa ordered the
election for next Monday. Tbe City
Attonit-y says the election will be

So he took tbe boy lo s secluded spot snd
