having their bars open on Sunday.
There is great indignation manifested
from some quarters because OF the resolu-
ton Of the city authorities to enforce the
Sunday laws. For many years little atten-
ton WAS paid them.
The Police Justice seems determined to
do his duty in the premises, notwithstand-
ing the outcries. He didn't make the laws,
but it is his sworn duty to execute thenl
when brought to his attention. Yesterday
he was very firm. No technicafities were
allowed to avail. Ii the laws are not right,
the law-making power ought to be appeal
| ed to.
William Robinson was fined - for allow
| ing four hogs to go at large; 5. Booker, S2
| for leaving his horse unattended in the
street: John Hill, 3 for same offence; Har-
vcy Smith, s. 80 for driving recklcSsIy and
cndangeriny the lives oil persons passing.
| John Smith was convicted OF attempting
to rob Thomas o. Gates bv picking hi:
pocket, and sentenced to thirty days i'm
prisonment in the city jail. Smith narrow
ly escaped the lash. He is an eX-peniten
| tiary convict.
