living in a state of adultery, and upon
trial, were discharged, the prosecution
failing to produce proof sufficient to JUS
tify binding them over to Court.
On last Sunday Henry Bender went to
the residence ofthe Mayor, and telling a
story OF fear and danger, prevailed upon
His Honor to accompany him down town,
when he filed an affidavit against George
Greminger; charging him with having
made threats of shooting. Greminger
was arrested and gave bail for an appear
ance on Monday afternoon, when he came
to time, but waited in vain on Bender,
who came not. Greminger was dis
charged, and warrant was issued for
Bender's arrest. For the benefit of ex-

Johnny We!ch, Jr., aged Is years, caved

the First ward. He did it with his little

The big trial of the week lasted from
noon till eleven o'clock at night; it de-
veloped whole family history, but with
the family concerned, this was nothing
new. Charlie Ramie was arrested for
disorderly conduct, using obscene Ian
guage, &C., &C., the trial developed these
facts: Kitty Crittington sold pony to
John Myers for $40, and then left town
Charlie learned this on the following
morning, and made raid on Myers's
house, where he tried to gain admittance,
but was refused; he then went through
the door in harlequin fashion, and called
his sister-in-law all sorts of sweet names,
and claimed the pony as his. They re-
fused to let have it, whereupon he or
ganized himself into a search warrant"
and found the pony tucked behind
cooking stove in an out kitchen, and he
took it away with him. On the witness
stand Charlie and Ada Ramie, Emanuel
Slough and wife, and John and Mary
Myers, served to make things howl for
while; and it was with the utmost diff
Guilty that order was preserved. Language
not fit to be read was used without limit,
and the vilest epithets were passed and
repassed between the contending parties.
The defendant Ramie was fined s. and
costs.
