Putting on the Screws.

uDBluS OM DuO CCAO"Ss
OK Friday CHARLES JOHNSON wa
arrested for violation of the beer Oh
dinance, which went into effect OF
the 1st inst. JOHNSON was charges
with keeping room or place Wher
ale and beer were habitually SOLD
On the previous evening Policeman
CROWLEY stepped into the "Sampi'
Room and while there saw JOHNSON
sell beer which was drank and palo
for there. He made affidavit to this
effect, and upon it, JOHNSON was ar
rested and taken before the Mayor.
Here he demanded jury, which de-
mand was complied with and the fol
lowing jury sworn to try the case:
Roman Menager, H. j. Vanden,
Matthias Jeffers, z. V. Mauck, Samuel
Kerr, Walter Mcfarland, James
Holt, John H. Rupp, w. o. Martin,
Thomas Williams and w. R. B. Ste
vens.
1t was supposed by JOHNSON
friends that the fact that he was not
the owner of the saloon would exon
crate him. The language of the Or
nance is KEEP arooms Though JOHN
SON kept the saloon few minutes for
HALL, the owner, this was sufficient
to convict him as keeper.
Upon tks-srmfofs thecFse JoHNsoN
was foaad guilty, and sentenced to
pay fine of $50 and be imprisoned
in the city prison ten days. The jury
were out but a few minutes before
they returned with the verdict.
j JoHNsoN's counsel asked that the exc
cution of the sentence be suspended
until bill of exceptions could be
prepared. The Mayor granted three
days time, JOHNSON giving securi-
ty in the sum of $500.
The three days time expired on
Tuesday. On that day JOHNSON pre-
sented his bill of exceptions, which
received the signature of the Mayor.
During the trial JOHNSON made a
verbal motion to continue; a motion
sustained by affidavit to continue; a
motion to dismiss complaint; filed a
plea in bar to the affidavit, which was
to, and demurrer sustained;
to the complaint; chal-
lenged the array of jurymen; object
ed to Mr.. JEFFERs as a juryman be-
cause he belonged to the Ladies'
Temperance League; called the City
Clerk to show by the record the Or
dinance was not properly passed, and
asked the Court to charge the jury on
certain points. In all these he was
decided against. and they constitute
the points raised by his bill of excep-
tions. The Mayor continued his
bail of $500 for three days, until ap-
plication could be made to Judge
PLANTS for the allowance of the bill.

strike terror into the hearts of the
beer sellers. 1t is to be hoped that
they will see what the result will be,
md that the shadow now cast ahead
ellis of coming events with the certain
y of Fate. The city prison and heavy
ines can never fail. Our officers
know their duty and will do it.
