Goto Raisley's auction room for boots
and shoes cheap. Sale every evening.
Peter Docs, the policeman who was 50
drunk on his beat last week, was dismissed
the force on Saturday night by Mayor
Wheelock. This is the proper way to dis
pose of such cases. The Mayor deserves
thanks for mis- prompt action in the mat
ter.
On Saturday Amos Weaver was arrest
ed for stealing a bottle of liquor from
VIM. Holstrum' s saloon. He was brought
before Justice Mapes and had his examin-
alton postponed until to-day. at O'Clock.
It was not concluded at the hour of going
to press.
VIM. Stevens got into fight, at Shultz's
saloon, corner of Wells and Lynde streets,
and was arrested and taken to the GALA
boose, where he remained until this morn
ing, being TOO drunk to come to trial. At
the hearing to-day, he was fined 30, tor
which he gave security. When arrested
he was drunk and disorderly and showed
disposition to quarrel with all he met.
He got off easy.
This morning, Chris Rank caused
| the arrest of Mrs. Boyce for striking
his child. The case was one of those
unpleasant family quarrels that are so fire.
quently dragged into the police court. MIR.
Rank, who is quiet, peaceable citizen,
was driven to this extremity and would
gladly have avoided the issue if it could
have been averted. Justice Names,
after hearing the evidence, fined Mrs.
Bovce 50 and costs, under the state law.
1t is hoped this will permanently end the
case.

800 bonds for his appearance this morn
ing to answer the charge of having threat
ened the life of W. Healey and Mis-:
Healey, was on hand. but as no evidence
, was adduced he was discharged. There il

t self as 10th to do so, fearing personal viol

property, in such an event, besides gain
