before- Justice of the Peace Thomas
Fits Gerald yesterday afternoon.
The Japanese, with his bead swath
ed in bandages, and Roland, the
white man, with his neck similarly
tied up. were in'the court room. The
complaining witness and another
white man were the only witnesses
called.
According to Roland, who is fore
man of the section at Cayuse station,
he had trouble with Tano last week
owing to the manner in which the
Japanese was tamping ties. New
Year's eve he went down to the bunk
house of his men and was invited to

to kill him."
S. Anderson, another section fore
man, parted the two men. He did
not see the beginning of the fight.

defendant, attempted to prove that
the blow with the pocket knife might
have been struck after the Japanese
was on the ground with the Irishman
bending over him. Dr. W. G. Cole,
who attended the wounded foreman,
admitted that the blow might have
been struck when the defendant was
lying on his back, but he said the
weapon that caused the wound went
straight in instead of downward.
The Justice held the defendant to
await the action of the state circuit
court, and fixed his bonds at $500.

suing the work the boys unearthed a

fell off the curbstone on Farnam

horse. The child's mother, realizing
the erilous position Into which the
little one had fallen, became hysteri
cal and excitedly culled to passersby
to rescue her, but before anybody
could respond to the appeal the horse
moved back and away from the
child, being careful not to step upon
her as he did so, and then putting his
head down, grasped her skirts firmly
with his teeth, lifted her clear off the
pavement and set her gently upon the
curb, stepping back thereupon and
looking at her with evident satisfac
tion. The street was crowded with
Christmas Bhoppers and a great cheer
went up from those who saw the
home rcwue the child from her peril.
