DESPERATE FIGHT.
Yesterday evening about fl o'clock as
Geo. Jack was going home, he met "Red
dy" Cunning on the corner of Thirl ave?
nue and Fourth street. Reddy had on a
lot of bad liquor and his fighting clothes
and was coming up the street swearing
I and offering to tight tiny one who crossed
his path. Mr. .lack spoke to him and
told him if he didn't quiet down and stop
his swearing he whs liable to be arrested.
lhlsdldn't|set well on Reddy, so he picked
up a large rock and threw at Mr. .Tack.
About that time another mau came up
and Reddy commenced cursing him an?'
the man, whose name could not be
learned, struck hill., knocking him down
and commenced choking him. Finally
he let him up and no sooner was Roddy
on his feet than he commenced swearing
again. The man again knocked him
down and choked him. By this time Mr.
Greenwood, the clerk of the market, ar?
rived on the scene, arrested the pair and
telephoned for a policeman, but before
the ofllccrs arrived they escaped. The po?
lice were at once notified and about S
o'clock Officer Johnson caught sight of
Reddy on Salem avenue and started after
him. Reddy showed light, but Officer
Johnson soon overcame him and carried
him to the police station, where he was
locked up.
