Those Arabians who enjoyed un Ar
menian melee among themselves last
Saturday night at the Seventh street
hotbed seem a peculiar lot. After tho
hearing before Alderman John Monday
afternoon the four male defendants and
the one female nroseeutrlx iinrtlefnnteil
In osculation as a proof that all ill feel
ing was over. It was a novel sight to
see full-gruwn men kissing eaeli other
and the woman foisting her lips on ad
four of her assailants of the night pre
vious. Kut the kisses did not heal all
wounds. Constable Timothy Jones re
arrested one of the defendants yester

$2. At an early hour in the morning he
visited the constable and asked that the
law would compel another man to puy
the tine. The Arab was arrested, but

taken last night did not support tho
theory ot murder, but there nre other
witnesses yet to lie heard, who could
not attend the inquest last night, and
