A tutveLy scratching match between a policeman and two women took place in a house on Grafton Street, near the centre of the city, this morning. It appears that the officer entered the house in question for the purpose of arresting a boy whe lived there. | Lhe door had no sooner been closed than the women started in on the officer, scratching and clawing for all they were worth. The

ficer warded them off as best he could with- out unnecessary violence. He finally, took the boy in charge and fleparted. He will carry a few battle marks, in the shape of scratches, for a few days. Truly the path of the policemen is not strewn with roses.
