The MaHOr,s Canrt

Last evening Frank Gingleback was
arraigned for keepinga an unregistered
dog. For this offence he was fined five
dollars and costs.
Henry Mckinney, resides in the
vicinity of Eleventh and Jackson
streets, was charged to having let his
horse run loose in the streets. The
delinquent was fined two dollars and
costs.
At this mornings session. Geo. Monroe
was placed in the dock at the instiga-
tion of Chief of Police Maxwell. The
officer testified that the man had come
to the City Hall last evening, saying
that two of his ribs were broken and
that he resided in New Castle, at the
same time requeting nights lodging.
He was told that no such requests were
granted. The man theu left but after
wards came back and sat down in the
police Office. AS the man appeared to
be under the influence of liquor lie was
locked up. The man asked for his
freedom, asserting that he had endeav-
ored to walk home, but failed in the
attempt. The Mayor told him that he
might go this time but if he was arrest;
ed again he would give him a free
ride to New Castle.

A PrOrnne Officer.

A little episode occurred at New Cas-
tie yesterday brought on by county
constable which had it come off in the
presence of the members of the Levy
Court would certainly have cost him
his appointment. Without provocation
he assailed some gentlemen in front OF
the court house in retaliation for some
imaginary wrong and poured out his
Walls of wrath upon their heads in the
most disgusting profanity. One of the
men assailed walked quietly away, the
other maintained his groundand told the
half inebriated officer that he ought to
keep the peace instead of breaking it.
Such disgusting scene of profanity is
but seldom met with and the only ex-
cuse for it was the intoxicated con-
dition of the officer.
