MAYORS CoURr-A colored Salon who spoke
several languages fluidly, found that when he be-
came drunk he could not talk plain English. This
disgusted the inguist, who vented his spite by q
fierce onslaught on the street doors along his
route. He rang bells and created some excite
ment, which was only allayed by the arrest of the
midnight marauder. He was sent for three weeks
in retirement, where he could chew the bitter END
of reflection.
Bull pitched into Elizabeth, and she responded
gallantly, jerking his wool furiously. The lovely
pair were carried to the Bar of Justice, where Eli
zabeth was sent up for three days. This affected
her lord and master terribly, and caused him to
hand over his only 50 greenback, which he pledg-
ed for her good behavior. Her bonds were loosed
and she was sent on her way rejoicing.
