=
the friends of God and our country to

A.DEAD BEAr.-Some swindler, calling
himself j. A. Nichols, pretending to be
printer working in the STATESMAN office,
has been paying his board bills by giving
orders on this office. We would say for
the benefit of the public, that there has
been no printer of that name working In
this office for years. Besides this, the
STATESMAN pays its employees promptly
each week. and orders on the office are
t therefore not necessary.
VAas.-Depot Officer Fix on Thursday
night arrested Frank Worley, George De-
lany, Charles Schulz and Adam Martin as
vagrants. They were operating and mov-
ing round the depot in most suspicious
manner, and when arrested refused to give
any account of themselves. They are about
as hard looking lot as ever our two Chris
tian eyes rested on. The Mayor sent them
to the stone pile, in default of $5 and costs
each.
BROKE Our OF THE CALABoosE.-Two
men were arrested by Officer Naddy about
10 o'clock on Thursday night and confined
in the calaboose. The iron cells being full,
they were locked up in one of the wooden
ones. Before midnight they wrenched an
iron stanchion from under the bench in the
cell, with 1t pried off the cell door, and
broke open the back door, making their
escape over the fence. There is but little
doubt but that these are two of the band of
burglars now infesting our town.
