Griswold's office, having been summoned to quell the muss, arrived, and not knowing the circumstances attending the case, arrested both Craven and Eanes, and with aid attempted to carry the parties to the Provost Marshal's office, corner of 9th and Broad streets. When near Burnett's shop, above the depot, somebody gave Craven a heavy blow on his face. The party proceeded on, and when near Duval's drugstore Craven was struck with a slungshot. The detective here declared his inability to protect him, and gave him in charge of another party to carry up.

Here Mr. Maccubbin, of that office, decided that Eanes must go before the Recorder. Nearly simultaneously with the announcement somebody stabbed Craven in the back with a dirk. E

Selden, likewise of the colored fraternity. This was a case with which the green-eyed monster had clearly something to do. Temple had been for a long time enjoying intimate relations with Smith, and repairing to the house and finding Selden installedSelden installed in her affections he proceeded first to whack that colored person over the head with a chair, and when he had retired under the pressure of adverse circumstances, he cut and tore up his remaining garments in blind fury.

Craven then gave him a thundering beating; his hands were tied behind him and he was put in the hands of Watchman Hicks for conveyance to the cage. At this juncture, Detective Joseph Polk, of Maj.
