Monday night while the politicians were bir-y iigunng on election returns to the exi. usion ol every other thought, a pti/e fight, \sith love of lovelv woman lor the stake?, and without gate money was in progress just outside the city limits. Tne lacth in the case are as lollows: Two well known \oung men belonging to the same set have lor many moons loved the same voung woman, a handsome, dashing damsel who resides on street in the northeast part of the city. Neither ot them could discover that she had a preterence tor either, as she lavished her smile upon each with equal prolusion. She seemed lo not

could sing the lines of "The Heggar's Opera, ••Hew happy could I ho with either. *re loiher denr chHrnicr away. wiin aching hear 1 he yoiu men had worshipped at her shrine so long that each dc-paired of being able to displace the other in the atleclions ol the gentle one. 'I hey were friends, hence there must be some way Revised ot settling the matter, and ii was agreed that a t» st of skill in the ai.lv ait ol hell defense should decide the case and the one ho was vanquished should dra»v out of the contest and leave the field clear lor the victorious rival. This arrangement was made yesterday evening "on the dead," only about tour lriends outside of the principals knowing anything ol it. The services ol a voung man who clerks in a well known business house was selected as lime keener, anil a lellow well known in sporting circles was made retcree. The little hand proceeded to Hutton's grove where ropes w?»re stretched about a sixteen loot rin and lighted bv four campaign torches. The voung men stripped and the rules ol the prize r:ng, according lo the Marquis ol Queetisbury, were read to them, anil thev went at it fisi and skull. Four rounds were fiercely fought, resulting as many knock downs for the least skillful combatant. On account of some technicality however, the light was declared a draw by the reft ice. They therefore stand in the same relation to the damsel that they did before. Thj figh* wa-» kept very quiet but

The Supreme Court has reversed the case ol Madison township against Win. Dunkle, a tanner TruMee, to recover money due the township oil going out ol1' office.

When tnonev was wrongfully ate.) by a township Trustee the debt is not barred hv a discharge of the Trustee in bankruptcy The township, by accepting a dividend on the claim, does not lose its right to resist the bar »f (he discharge. The execution ol a note by ihe Till-tee to hi* successor did not change Ihe character andi° 'lie debt.
