POLICE CoURr.-There was but one
case before the Police Court on Satur-
day. The gsloots had heard that Judge
Rogers would again dispense justice and
be is 60 high-toned in his assessments
that they fight shy Of him.
John Daley is sooner" galoot
John would sooner drink g gallon than
20 dry a minute. He is one of Alex.
Wallace's boarders and has made good
deal of trouble among the rest Of Alexis
slumbering angels. On Friday he got
az full az he could hold and went rsring
and prsncing and cavorting through the
Second ward market house in manner
at once edifying and pleasaut-if a per-
son were fond Of strong inveetive.
John was captured and lugged to the
calaboose. Judge Rogers fined him 50
and costs or fifteen days. That fifteen
days" was too many for Daley, 80 he
hunted round in his clothes and found
money enough to pay the bill.

DULL.-Matters about town are dull,
and it is considerable Of a job to make
a reasonable local column. The mills
have all stopped; the river is frozen
over; the boys have spent all their
money for Christmas gifts or are spend
ing it for Safeguarding; trade is at q
stand still; farmers are not coming
into town to any remarkable extent be-
cause it is go cold; the trains are all
behind time, 80 are the mails, and the
display in the markets is very delicate,
about the thinnest we ever saw. All
these tribulations are caused by holi-
days and cold weather. How is it to
be expected, then, that an interesting
local can be erected on all these ruins ?
A first-class dog fight would be a relief
Just now, for the town is as quiet as
Parkersburg, Charleston, Moundsville
or any Of the other villages in the
State.

place at the corner of Fourth and Mon

should have it fixed at once, or the city
