'sMonday in the police court; well the
world moves, and suppose there is no use
of signing for the millennium yet awhile"
remarked hizzoner as he sized up the gang
yesterday. 'Open up the court, Mr.. Bailiff
and the hopper commenced to grind again
| just the same as if there had been no Sun
day, saloon ordinance or any other moral
agencies at work in this great and sanity
city of st. Paul.
| Frank Kranz, who keeps a joint at Seventh
and jackson streets, was up for selling
booze after midnight. The case was pecu-
liar, Sunday night four ronnders went into a
saloon after IL o'clock and called for whisky
and oysters; they were given drink and
charged fifty cents, but when it came TO the
oysters the proprietor couldn't go them.
Then they kicked saying they would call
in a policeman and show him up
| for selling after hours: they called in two Of
ficers and Kranz said that he had only given
| the men ginger ale; while talking one Of the
| coppers picked up deceptive silver tea ket-
tie and shifted the aroma of bug juice; this
gave the snap away, and yesterday he was
arrested. A fine of S25 was imposed, on
hearing which Kranz remarked that there
would be no more lunches set up for the
policemen.
Ed. Stewart was arrested Sunday for being
full, and $40 was found on his person. After
SOLDERING up, the jailer gave him couple OF
dollars and instructed him to be in court in
the court in the morning, he obeyed the in
structions and on coming into the temple
yesterday he was as full as a billed owl. The
officer was instructed to lock him up until he
became sober. On leaving the court he
picked up hat belonging to reporter for
the German paper and got away with it.
A. Broomly, the little Canada man who
who went on tare last Sunday, and took
possession of horse and cutter belonging
to J. LeDuc, was charged with disorderly
conduct and fined $40 and costs.
j. Lunkenheimer had fuss with a print
er's devil, and during the engagement he
slapped the kid. 1t is as easy for man to
| whistle down the wind as to beat printers
devil, and on this account it cost him $40.
Hannah Benleen, the old-timer, was up
again for tackling the elegant lush, and she
promised to leave the city
John Rittle appeared in the role Of wife
beater; he has been treating his wife brut-
ally for years, and the case is a very sad one.
Judge Burr thought sixty days would do him
good and he went out for that period.
! In the afternoon John Donovan was ar
raigned on the charge Of robbing Gustav
Peterson of 5000 on the 31st Of January.
The case was very singular in some respects;
one witness testified that1 they had been
charged four dollars for four glasses of beer.
During the trial witness named Dewitt
| testified as to a converse
ton, in the Office of Associate
Judge Nelson; there were present Dewitt
Dahl, the barkeeper in the saloon where the
money is said to have been stolen, and Judge
Nelson, and Dewitt swore that he did not say
at that meeting, that he wanted to be paid to
appear in the case. Judge Nelson was sworn
and testified that he had asked for
money to appear as witness. Dewitt and
one s. M. Carlson also testified that Samuel
Dahl, the barkeeper at Horan's, had himself
stolen the money. Donovan was held to the
grand jury in the sum Of 81, 500, and COM
mitted in default of bail.
After his case had been disposed of, the
case of Thos. Koran, charged with receiving
800 of the money, was heard; he was held
in the sum of $1,000, and he gave bail
After seeing these men, and hearing their
contradictory evidence, County Attorney
Egan promptly swore out a warrant for
their arrest on the charge of perjury.
Both men were held to the grand jury in the
sum Of $3.50 each, and committed.
