Convalescent Ward Scene of Battle Between "Lunger" and Broken Leg. Convalescent ward of the Good Sa maritan hospital yesterday afternoon was the scene of a bitter battle be tween a patient with a, broken leg and a man just recovering from a se rious operation on his lungs, says the Evening Telegram. Like a Spartan, the patient with the disabled limb dropped his crutches and waddler on one foot to reach his opponent, who, seizing one of the discarded crutches, struck him three vicious blows on the body In an attempt to floor him. Failing In this, he drew a Jackknlfe, and was about to wield It when an attendant separated the belligerents. C. O. Le Masters and Axel Ander son were the fighters, the former weak of lung and said to be the ag gressor, while the latter is the pa tient who fought despite his broken leg. After the affray Anderson filed two complaints ngnlnst Le Masters, who was arrested at the hospital yesterday afternoon. This afternoon Le Mas ters was sentenced by Judge Camer- to pay a fine of $50 for drawing a dangerous weapon. Tomorrow he will be heard on on a charge of threatening to kill. Discussion of the merits of ances try was the cause of the fight be tween the patients. Le Masters clulmed to be a "Yankee," and An derson said to be a Swede like him self was more to one's credit. Epi thets ensued, and In a trice both men were In a rage, and at Le Master's In vitation Anderson dropped his crutches and limped toward him. W. H. Farrier a hospital attendant, arriv ed on the scene of the encounter Just n time to overt bloodshed, In the police court this morning the benches resembled ethe open air cor ner of the hospital Itself. Several witnesses of the encounter, their heads bandaged or carrying canes or crutches, were on hand t testify for or against the accused patient. Judge Cameron, however, only called the participants In tho fight and the at- endant who separated them. The $ 50 fine Imposed by the Jurist on I.e Masters disposes of the charge of drawing a dangerous weapon. When separated from Anderson, Le Masters Is alleged to have said "I'll kill you yet!" This report Is the basis for the complaint which charges Le' Masters with threatening to kill. City Brevities Ice cream at Hohbach'a. Billiards and pl at Hennemans. All kinds of zood dry wood.

R. & X. line between Bolles Junction and Starbuck, says the Walla Walla Union. Tho eighth man to fall from the diz zy heights of the trestle was James Plumb, who was found yesterday morning at 8 o'clock lying in a hor rible state of mutilation, on the wood work at the base of the bridge where he landed after falling a distance of 50 fee. No one saw him fall, no one knew his name, nor could a letter or any means of Identification be found upon his person to furnish any clue to the whereabouts of his friends and relatlbes. It was only after bringing him to the St. Mary's hospital that, 12 hours Inter, the few Incoherent words were wrung from him by the attending physician that his name was James Plumb that he had a broth er, John Milton Plumb, In Chasbury Vermont, and a sister living In Michi gan. Plumb Is of medium height and rather slender, with red hair and san dy beard and mustache. One of his comrades who brought him In said that he was not known by any of the crew as he had been with them but a short time when he slipped on the timbers, wet with yesterday's show ers, and fell headlong to the ground. At a late hour last night he remain ed unconslcous and the hospital phy sician said that there were only slight hopes of his recovery. While a group of men were watch ing by Plumb's bedside last night It was recalled that it was exactly one month ago when the last victim fell to his death from the same bridge. And besides eight In all have met their death there since last September. "I do not understand," said a resident of that section. "Everyone who works there has bad luck of more or less se rious nature. The other day a man went there to haul away some old tim bers and In loading them upon his wagon he slipped and fell and broke his leg. The bridge has simply be come a hoodoo."

As there are no streams or irrigating ditches in that vicinity there is much speculation as to how this water anl mal came to be so far Inland.
