VILLAINOUS SMELLS,
Settling Without Bail or Bonds in the
City'S Court.

1t is recorded by no less historian than the il
lustrious Macauley that realizing the defeat
of the French forces at the memorable battle of
Waterloo, Il famous French commander expressed
his infinite disgust and chagrin by the use of
monosyllable good deal more forcible than po-
lite. But the French have nice way of saying
an applicable thing even when nasty which En-
glish or American breeding revots at. However,
the term employed by the great French fighter to
sum up his disgust at the defeat of his forces
would have been about the only appropriate Ian
guage in which to express the feelings of those
who werein the vicinity of the bull pen yesterday
morning.
1t was pretty fair looking crowd with the ex-
ception of u bum named Chas. Stricken, along
side of whom night soil wagon would have Deen
as fragrant as the perfumed spices of sweet
Araby. He had been laid out by sixty second
tanglefoot, and when he shown to seat the
Jolly bailitf placed his thumb on his nostril and
threw open the windows, while Clerk Fairchild
went into his room and brought out bottle of
new mown hay cologne, which he sprnkled over
the bhll pen. The latter receptacle contained,
among others, such old timers as Maggie Flynn,
Almira Greasy and Mrs. Davis, and even these
venerable danes were almost overcome by the
racket.
Judge Burr ordered the hose turned on him
for five days and he was waltZed out.
Mrs. Davis was up few days ago for having
been paralyZed on the old stuff and she took the
pledge and promised to keep sober. When
raigned yesterday on the old charge she assured
the court that all she had taken was a glass of
settler water. Hizzoner remarked that there
must have been couple Of fingers of bug juice
mixed in with the seltzer and she went out for
ninety days.
Maggie Flynn was charged
with indulging too freely in the o,
be joyful. After loading to the guards on the
old stuff she wrapped a quincy sack about her
racky old form and laid down on the sidewalk to
pleasant dreams. She was in a melancholy mood
yesterday and the court thought that sixty days
would do her good. She went out for that period.
F. j. Frobert, green Dutchman attired in the
loose garments of his fatherand, was charged
with assault. He was arrested on Eagle street
where he pounded a man, and it was suspected
that he and his pals had made an attempt to hold
the stranger up. There was nc evidence to the
latter point, and he was fined S25 on the charge
of assault. He paid the scrip.
The case of a Berkey, charged with stealing
pitchfork, was dismissed
After several minor cases had been disposed of
the case of Dan Taylor was called. Dan is the
gem man of color who stabbed another gem man
in the arm at the Monte Crsto palace Fifth
street, Tuesday night. Yesterday the wounded
man, Cozens, no where to be found, and the
chances are that he has skedadled. The hearing
continued TO the 9th inst.
In the afternoon 500 Wan, heather Chinee,
up on the charge of splling dirty water
der the sidewalk. He swore by his pigtail that
he would let up the heather practice and he
