Trivial Cavae or A Fatrat Reseit.—A
few days since, two travelers stopped for
. the night at Evan’s hotel, at Evansville,
. Oregon. One was Charles Williams and the
_ other David Butterfleld—entire strangers to
each other. Sapper being served, the boarders and gueste, inclading Williams and
Butterfield, repaired to the table, It so
happened that they both continued at the
table after the rest had withdrawn; Up to
this time not a word had passed between
them. Presently a gentleman connected
with the house entered the supper-room,
aud knowing Mr. Williams very well, asked
if he desired to be served with anything
more, The reply was: “No, sir; but may
be my friend bere would like something.’’
It seems Butterfield took offense at the sarcasm evinced in the remark, and applied a
sharp admonition to Williams, in which he
hinted that he did not like to be spoken of
familiarly by one so young as Mr. W. An
apology was made by the fatter, but Batterfield failed to receive it in the spirit in
. which it was offered. From this, curt re. torts aud sharp, harsh words wera exchangied, until floally Batterfield applied a most
offensive epithet to Williams, which was in. stantly resented by aslapin the face. A
brief scuffle ensued, bat the parties were
separated before any serious injury was in. flicted upon either. They both repaired to
. the bar-room, and shortly the difficulty was
renewed, Williams, becoming very much
enraged, seized a heavy wooden stool near
. by and with it struck Butterfield upon the
. head a crushing blow, which fractured the
. frontal bove and felled him unconsciously
. Emory’s crossing, and on the west by a line . to the floor. The wounded man was carried
. drawn north and south with the Flumes of . up stairs, and a messenger dispatched with
. Middle Yuba Canal Company, which crosses
