THE WARM SPRINGS MILKMAN. The
Warm Springs road dairyman to whom ref
erence was ia de in these columns on Tues
day morning, says that he was altogether ignor
ant of the fact that he was watering his cows
in unclean water, and since he has become
cognizant of the condition of that water he
gives his cows water from the warm springs,
which he will continue to do until he has
completed well he is now sinking on his own
property. This explanation is made at the
suggestion of State Prison official, who
guilty of premeditated wrong. We give
this for what it is worth.
PoLICE CoURT-Matt Allen was yesterday
tried for committing an assault and battery
upon the person of one McQuade, found guilty

there was 40 provocation. Yesterday the two
met and Allen struck McQuade with his cane,
without injuring him to any extent, however. |
McQuade is a huge, strapping six footer, !
while Allen is slenderly built man, and it
looked very comical to see big giant swear

Law like a fighting cock with his gafs off.
Pant leaves o-morrow for that mine.
