The trouble took place in Todd’s aloon,and happened in about this | wise: Ab.

As Patty passed him he stepped to the cue rack, took out a large maple cue, which weighed 17 ounces, walked up quickly behind Patty and with the remark, you s— b—, struck him a terrible blow over the right eye with the but end ot the stick, breaking it short off within six inches of the end. Not satisfied with this, Lamb dropped his cue and, as Patty was talling, ran up to him and struck him several about the head with his fist. times Patty was immediately taken to his home, where he lay until about 10 v’clock Saturday morning in an unconscious condition, and at the present time 1s not able to the Dr Christy was summoned and, atter an examination, pronounced the lick a leave house. very severe one, but did not think it | would fatal. Lamb, stuking the blow, skipped out made his way to a house of bad re- pute in the northe: where he morning, east of prove atter part of the erty, | remained until Saturday when he took to the brush | town. Bet g and 10] o'clock some one started the report | from his injuries, and for a hours the wiidest excitement pre- | vailed. Men were arming themselves and leaying town in almost every direction on the hunt for the fugitive, making diyers threats of lynching him as soon as caught. About 2 o’clock Lamb’s hiding place was given away by a small boy, who had carried him a note, to Deputy U.S. Marshal Willis, who, in company with Constable Tucker and John Devinney, soon had him in the armsof the law. He was waltzed up betore his honor ’Squire Cannon and in default of a $500 bond was sent to jail to await his trial, which is set tor Friday. Lamb is considered a pretty hard boy and disobeymg the teachings and advice of his tather, has been engaged in numerous difficulties in our city, and seems to take delight in priding himself on his muscle. Before another issue of this paper Selly Brothers great show willexhib it in Butler, and as a gang of thor- oughbred pick-pocket and sand bag thugs alwa tollow these great shows, we warn our people tobe on the look out tor them. In Clinton a year ago when this circus was there a number of robberies were commit- ted by these light fingered gentry, and also two or three stores pilfered while the pocession was going on, and out of the eight or ten thetts only one of the thieves was caught, and punished. Our business men should keep the back door of their stores lacked, and our farmers should not carry more than just enough money on their person to meet expenses. The circus management, of course is inno way responsible for these thieves following them and would gladly imprison every one of them if they could. Again we warn all to be on your guard.

Child’s daughter and Mrs. Kennett, and daughter Mary, while on their way to Monegaw Springs, the carriage in which they were riding was acci- dently turned over and in the melee Mrs. Kennett had one of her ankles badly sprained.
