NO EXCUSE.

Al. Kiskadden was up before Justice
-Cropper this morningyon charge of fir
ing weapon within the limits Of the city.
The defendant did not deny the charge,
but admitted that he had been guilty OF
the same, and stated as an sxtenuating
circumstance, that there was vagabond
canine in the immediate vicinity of his
domicile who made nocturnal visits. The
dog was in the habit of enjoying himself
by bowling at the moon, and that being in
visible, the dog would catch on to gas
lamp.
The court, however, did not admit that
the noise was any excuse for discharging
g deadly weapon, and the defendant was
fined $40 and costs
