JUSTICE RoBINsoN's COURT.

Levy Mays and VIM. Vaughn were ar
rested by Officer Mahanny for drunkenness
and each fined one dollar and costs, which
they paid.
Officer Wins arrested one Ed Fisher for
disorderly conduct, but the evidence ne.
cesitated Fishers discharge.
Ann Fisher, arrested by Officer Mahanny
for the same offense, was also discharged.
Lee Smith, a negro, was arrested
by Officers Olmsted and Mahanny
for violating section twenty of article fve
| by gambling within the corporate limits Of
the city. The case was one of interest 0
number Of witnesses being examined, all Of
whom admitted that they played cards bu
emphatically denied that they played fol
money or anything Of value. Smith was
of course, discharged. In spite Of the fac
that under the new state law witnesses
may be compelled to testify in such cases
even though they involve themselves, the
officers seem to find II as difficult as ever ia
bring gamblers to justice It IS highly
probable that if half dozen or more Of
these knights Of the paste boards and the
dice" were convicted of perjury the officers
would find the running down of this pest.
ferrous gang much easier undertaking.

"A heavy rise Is coming uowh the Mis-I
sissippi river. A Winona special said last
evening" "The water has reached an UNI
precedented stage for the fall of the year.
being eleven feet five inches above low
water mark. The Diamond 10 dock is sur
rounded by water, and the lower dock of
the freight depot of the Winona and ST.
Peter railway is under water. Along the,
levee the water is over the bank in some
places, but no interruption has occurred to
the business or railroad interests on the
river front. The main damage will be in|
the loss of hay on the extensive bottom
lands on both sides of the river The water
rose three inches on Friday night, but was
on stand Saturday, and to-day shows al
decline of half an inch. No fears are en-
tertaincd of any food unless the upper
river should be subjected to an unusual
rise"
A Carbonate man came to the city|
yesterday and got drunk. In this condi /
ton he wandered from place to place, dis.
playing roll of money which he loudly
proclaimed to contain two thousand dol
lars. Officers Olmsted and Mahanny came|
up with him and, finding that
he was not too drunk to know
what he was doing, advised him to deposit
his money, which they found contained
about tour hundred dollars, in the bank
He agreed to do so and the officers accom-
panied him to the bank; but, arrived there,
he backed out, saying that he would leave
it with the clerk of his hotel. But when
the officers had conducted him there he|
again refused to part with his money. The|
officers were DESTROYS that he should leave
his money in safe hands, because they|
knew that he would become drunken,
wander into some den in the city, be rob
robcd of his wealth, and then curse the|
town and its officers for not taking better
care of him. But their efforts were all in|
vain; but just about this time friend OIL
the man came along, and he took charged
of the Carbondaer.
