LAGER BEER SALOON KEEPER sERENADED.
-Four boys nsmed Frederick L. White, Michael
Keefe, John Wheeler and Manning Hough, were ar
raigbed on a charge of disorderly conduct. They
were bright looking boys Of about thirteen years of
oge dressed in plain but neat clothes, and with the
exception of White, did not seem much 10 like the
position they occupied. There was devi-nsy care
though not vicious look about White viii n was

position than otherwise aud from a roguis1 leer that
was observed in biz eye he surveyed a parsonage
who was TO appear ss the witness against him. our
reporter was led anticipate some thing 10 the shape
of novelty and he accordingly prepared for the worst
The Jude told the boys the nature OF the charge
against them. The Of the witness being called,
Mr. Conrad Heinrich Holzenkamp announced his pres

vss not more than FIVE feet eight, but the circumfer
ence and diameter Of the lager beer were enormous.
He carried himself erect by necessity to balance the
lager beer in the front. fiis hide laid in wrinkles
across the back Of bis neck whenever he held back
bis head, and every wrinkle seemed ready to burst
with lager beer. Mr Hole amps face looked lager
beer; Mr.. HolzeDkamp walked lager beer. drank and
ate lager beer in alienation. He thought lager beer,

The Court-Kiss the book, Mr. Holzenkamp.
The witness proceeded to biinga gill of lager beer
contain ed in bis nose and half gill of lager beer con
tanned in bis lips in contact with venerable Bible,
which has been 40 familiar with crime by long associa
ton that we almost wonder the text has not been long
since corrupted much as the cover. Lager beer ana
the Bi de having 10 contact lager beer is sup
posed to be incapable of lying.
