 [extracts of local crimes]

        One of our officers attempted to arrest a man in Woods' saloon,
     on Saturday night, when a fight ensued, and the man escaped.

        Two burglars were arrested at Au Sauble on Monday, who had a kit
     of burglar tools in their possession. It is said that they had been
     prowling about this city recently.

        M. Macartney started for Detroit yesterday, taking R. McGillis
     with him, charged on selling liquor without a license.

        Early Friday morning, while Policeman Sheridan was attempting to
     arrest a negro, named George Brown, for disturbing the peace, he was
     stabbed in the left side, receiving an ugly wound. Brown then ran, but
     the officer pursued and captured him after shooting him twice, once in
     the shoulder and once in the abdomen. Both men are dangerously hurt.
