MARY COOP, known more Familiarity
by the euphoniOus title OF Rag Mary,
is again in the cooler. She paid out OF
her last scrape, on Main street, but her
immunity was of short dura-
ton. Yesterday afternoon, she
approached Officer Miller ana
accused him of having been the means
arrcsting her. The "pOplarest on the
force" is gallant officer and a chival-
rous one, but the alcoholic odOr of
Mary's breath dissipated his respect for
her sex, and he yanked her in. The
tramp OF her No. 10 boots will be once
more heard on the lookup floor, and the
General will be happy.
