FEUD OF SHORT TIME ENDS IN FIGHT.

W. F. Smith and Colored Man Mix It On Wahslgton Street; Two Other Men Involvedj—"”--——-A fight involving two Rensselaer businessmen and W. F. Smith, the stone road contractor and Glency Wood, a‘ colored resident, occurred this Monday morning about 9:15 o’clock in front of Warner Bros, hardware store. The trouble started over the rental, by .Wood, of the property bacfc of th| residences occupied by W. F. Smith and W. J. Wright, on River street. Wood is a cousin of Freeman Wood, the barber, and has a family Of three children. He has lived at Goodland practically, all his life but went to Fowler about a year ago, from where he moved here, since which time he has been employed at Kanne Bros.’ livery barn. He has been looking for a house in the east part of town to move his family into but could find nothing there, so rented the hpuse of Janies T. Randle, located back of the residences oecupied by Wright and Smith, which are also owned by Mr. Randle. This met with Smith’s and Wright’s disfavor and it is understood they told the darkey Sunday that they wouldn’t stand for his living there and that Randle would not permit it, to all of which Wood Claimed he was a law abiding citizen and that he neither intended to noY would he molest anybody. Wood was driving a wagon from across the river and stopped in front of Werner p rQq ■» hardware store.

Smith came to the edge of the sidewalk and called him a name, whereat Wood got off the wagon. After an exchange of words Smith struck Wood, and the mixup followed. A large crowd soon gathered and it was charged that W. J. Wright and C. W. Rhoades both took a hand against the darkey. After the dust cleared away, Wood filed a warrant for -the arrest of Smith, Rhoades and Wright, on the charge of assault and battery. They were arrested by Marshal Mustard and Deputy Sheriff Gus Grant, and taken to Squire Irwin’s court, where the two former plead guilty to the charge and paid the fine and costs, amounting to $4.80 each. Wright pled not guilty and his trial was started at 11:30 this morning. At noon court was adjourned until 1 o’clock. Wright was cleared, having conclusively proven to he court that he took no hand in, the affair.
