poor old drunken negro, yesterday, had
hearing before Mayor Almond, last
night. It was In testimony that the
lime had run into the old darkey q eyes
and almost ruined his sight. Sparks
appeared to regard the affair as Joke,
but the Mayor viewed it differently
and imposed . penalty of SO and costs
with 5000 bail to keep the peace.
Chandler had been summoned as q
witness in the case, but he could not
be found, having left the city for
awhile. t-hf

Chandler is q sort Of political noLde-
script, belonging to neither political

personal feelings dictate. The outrage
was most disgusting one, the men
tying the poor negro to a post in order
to more readily apply the lime to his
person. Sparks not having money
enough with him at the trial to pay
his fine, had to rest In the cells until
his friends came and took him out.
Tho Mayor sincerely regretted that he
could not give him six months in jail.
