Audience

A00AIANNs
And now the frosty season of the year
draws near; and now the snow doth blow
and exc the turkey gobler's tuneful crow will
change its lay; while on this day, the eulin-
airy cook its life viii slay.
And here We have again the justice court,
you pay your money, reader, and select your
sort
First on the list we find James Rogers, a
bloke, who eabbaged a wayfarers ulster coat
the court on him with eyes did look askaace,
there was no mercy pictured in the glance
aud ere the fellow had little chance to speak
his say, he was committed TO the gloomy
quay, where he will languish all of sixty day.
Along with him came Harris, surnamed
Charles, who also rests behind the grfmy bars.
The testimony showed that he conspired 70
steal the strangers clothes, and as he could
no explanation give, he also in the workhouse
went to live, full sixty rocky days.
Alasl twas ever thus; this rhyme and
meter both can never chime, and as the
bull pen poets pressed for time, he'll cut
'em shOrt-sO here goes it.
Next on the docket came the case OF
Edwin Sherman. He is a tramp printer aud
arriving in st. Paul from Milwaukee a
NcIf-C VA NNCA6 aLof HG NGuL DIOkc Anu
tried to raise the wind BY holding a man up.
The victim is Thomas Hinton a young
Englishman. The latter reached here last
Saturday aud he fell in with Sherman who
invited him to take walk.
They started out to see the city and INDUCED
freely in drink. At nightfan Hinton found
himself on the prairie near the Short Line
crossing and he was minus his money having
been slugged and robbed Of Sill. He de-
scribed Sherman TO the police and the latter
was taken in tow. He could give no salts
factory evidence in rebuttal yesterday and
was held to the grand jury and committed in
default of 81 900.
Geo. Cummings, a tough looking nag
and free lunch rounder was ordered out oil
town, and the case OF John FOgg, charged
With assaulting a waiter in a restaurant was
continued TO Dec. 1.
John Lindholm was up on the charge OF
disOrderly. The complaint was made BY hi:
wife who separated from him some days ago
and who is now suing for a divorce. Tues
day night Lindholm went to where. she i:
stopping, and attempted to break in the
doors. Yesterday he was sent out for thirty
