| Tame His Son-in-Law.
Frank Hoton made himself a holy terror
| to fine old English gentleman Friday
afternoon and was arrested by Officer
Stoltz. The fine old English gent, accord
| ing to all accounts, is recent arrival and
was waiting around the Metropolitan hotel
to see live senator pass by the way-or
Dicgenes like, to find an honest man on
the streets. Before he gratlfed either de-
sire he became an object of interest to
Holton, and but for the timely arrival of
the officer would have met with exceedingly
rough treatment. His arrest was secured
after the arresting officer had run race
with every known difficulty and nearly
cast shoe on the home stretch, and his
immurement behind the bars attained at
the expense of Drawn and language the re-
verse of purely Christian. These facts
were all brought out yesterday morning in
court, and the bankruptcy and his conse-
quent inability to pay an assessment of
$25, were incidents recorded in the clerks
ledger of notable events.
Jerry Mccarthy, a boy, was called on
some charge, but the hearing of the evil
dence was postponed until Tuesday morn
ing. What the charge consists of, who
was injured, where. when,
how, the extent, and all
other particulars were not accessible to in
quiry. Nobody, from the judge on his
bench tc the clerk in his court, knew any
thing about the case.
John Dewey, stranger in the city, was
simply unfortunate in his inability to nav
igate, Friday night. Upon reflection how
ever, he was satisfied that booze, rather
than calamity, was the principal cause of
his fall, and so told his honor. This was
his first experience, he added, and he'd
scarcely repeat it. In consideration of
promises to join Gideop's band, which is
raising such ruction at this time with
the chances of Republican success in Ohio,
he was discharged.
Four wanderers, houseless and homeless,
were given spring beds at the city hotel
Friday night and Washingtonian home
cocktails yesterday morning before being
brought into court. They answered their
names in the following order: Thomas
McGlyn, Robert Clark, James O'Neill and
John Martin and were seyeraliy and col
lectively accused of vagrancy. His honor
heard the story of each and then examined
the palms of their hands to ascertain if
their appearances confined the pictures of
honest labor all had traced in language
both childlike and bland. The result of
his examination was that McGlyn and
Clark were given until noon to get
out of town, while their two side
pards, O'NeiIl and Martin. were licensed to
go forth as types of the noblest work.
Richard Hanuaford was arraigned for
keeping his saloon open after midnight.
He explained the misfeasance with a
story of how he'd been detained il Mime
apolis over night, and paid young man
one dollar to come down here and warn
his bar-keeper not to fail to close up &C.
cording to law. The latter got drunk, how
ever, and instead of closing not only kept
open, but diminished the stock of cham
paigne and cigars very largely; while the
orgies were in progress somebody lifted
S26 in hard cash, etc. In consideration of
the dangers through which Richard had
passed and the damage he'd sustained the
court thought fine of $25 would
be about the proper caper and
so directed. When the defendant goes to
MluLCtIpOllS again E0 II uOuDLISoc C4OSS up
or take his shop with him.
Mat Egan, accused of assault and bat
terry. went down in default of 5000 bail
for his appearance on Monday, to which
day his case was continued.
Thomas Rafteny, simple drunk, was
fined S.. He will pass to-day meath the
city's vine and fig tree on the banks of
the lake of Como.
John Murphy, arrested at the instance
of Ellen Murphy, his wife, anticipated the
absence of the prosecutrix would induce
the court to send him home with
chrome. That's where he got left,
His honor continued the case until to
morrow and directed the issuance of an
attachment for the recalcitrant Ellen.
Michael Cummings, continued case,
against whom two charges of keeping his
saloon open after hours were pending,
came into court and pleaded guilty to one
of them, the city consenting to Indefinite
ly postpone hearing of the other. The
plea was accepted, a fine of $25 imposed,
ond the other case consigned to the tomb
of forgetfulness.
George E. Smith who was charged with
ed his bonds of $25, by not appearing, was
on hand yesterday morning endeavoring to
procure a reversal of judgement. The
| court wouldn't reverse worth a cent, how
ever, and George is now engaged in kick
ing himself for his negligence.
TIE case of the city against George Hill,
charged with assault and battery, contin-
ued from day to day since winter, was
finally dismissed yesterday.
John NicoIai, for obstructing the corner
of Wabashaw and Sixth streets, was fined
S25 and given until Monday to pay. P.
F Flynn, was dismissed upon the pay
ment of costs; the cases of Breen Il Young
and E. F Berrisford, also for obstructing
| the streets were continued until Monday.
An old gentleman dressed in
brown linen and wearing straw hat
came into court yesterday morning and
procured a warrant for the arrest Of his
son-in-law Mike Hamilton. When not in
terrupted with mopping the perspiration
from his brow. he told Clerk Fairchild his
story in broken English and succeeded IN
moveing the issue Of papers necessary to
aid in making Hamilton tame. He was an
old citizen, he said. whose daughter had
! married year AGO. Since then he'd
