No Weather for Fighting.

Theodore Ramey and Louis Worden, each aged about 12 years, engaged in a little scrap on the sidewalk near the city hall about 10 o’clock Monday morning, urged on, it is said, by a number of “sidewalk laborers” who had nothing better to do, and the Ramey boy who is quite chunky, became overheat anti fainted. He was laid out on a bench near by and chunks of ice held about his head until he became conscious, and was then removed to the court house yard where he was placed in the shade and cooled off. Fighting is bad business at anytime, and especially so when the mercury is hovering around the 100 mark.
