The Democratic candidate may or
may not be General Brindle, but his

They We're Drunk.

The two young men from Millville,
who were in this city Friday, made
a sorry exhibition of themselves, as
they were very drunk, and consequent.
ly, foolish They Were riding about
the streets of the Fourth ward in di.
lapidated buggy, drawn by a jaded
horse that certainly was being abused.
The couple had their bottle with them,
and from it they took frequent
draughts of the fiery liquid, They
would sing and yell and bring residents
from their houses to learn why the
peace was being disturbed. 1t is too
bad they did not come down town,
where An officer could have arrested
them, and this morning, perhaps, they
would have felt less hilarious when
they handed the Mayor small fine for
their fun.

COMMITTED TO JAIL.
GOFF DEEMED GUILTY OF
STEALING THE WATCH.
Conclusive Evidence That Golf
was the Man Who Conn
mifted the Theft

Charles Goff, the young man, whom
the PIONEER mentioned Friday, as
being charged with stealing watch
from Frederick Fox, on the oath of
August, was given a hearing Saturday
morning before Justices D. E. Wood
ruff, and F. P. Riley, at the office of
the former. A number of witnesses
were examined.
The complaint was read to Goff, and
the young man pleaded not guilty, be-
ing in tears at the time.
Fred Fox was the first witness. He
said that the watch was in his vest
pocket, the garment hanging on a
post. Goff came to the wood shed
and asked to split some wood, which
he did, afterward Fox himself resumed
splitting the wood. A moment or two
later he turned to look at the watch,
and it was gone, and SO was Goff.
The witness had looked at the watch
a few moments before Golf came.
Goff, he said, was the only man around
sAC plCsCC at UH0 ullue.
E. P. Woodruff a jewler was sworn,
identified a watch lying on the desk,
which some time since he sold to Fred
Fox. The watch he thought had been
sold for $40.
John Pancoast was the next witness.
He said that Dave Thomas had come
to him and offered to sell him watch.
He bought it for $3.50. After he
bought the watch and paid for it,,
Thomas said this watch does not be-
long to me, it is the property of this
young man" turning to Goff who was
with him. Golf himself afterwards
said that it was his watch.
Samuel Applegit was sworn and tes-
titled that Fox was working for him
on the day of the stealing, and that
Golf came to the yard. The witness
was loading a wagon at the time. Mr..
Applegit explained that where Mr.
| Fox was at work he was surrounded
| by wood and nobody could get near
the watch without getting into this
| space.
Goff was then allowed to make a
statement He declared his innocence,
saying he knew nothing of the stealing.
Dave Thomas, he said, was at the wood
yard at the time of stealing, and after
ward, be met Thomas a short distance
| from the yard, who showed him 8
watch which he said he got up at the
shed. He said he had nothing what
ever to do with. it, and only told Pan
coast that the watch was his, sc
Thomas could get little more money
for it,
Mr.. Applegit then swore that he saw
a man about the shed, who NIGH
have been Thomas, but it was impos
sible for him to have taken it withou
getting into the open space in which
Fox stood while at work. This, Fo1
said, did not occur, Goff being the
only one in the space. Fox further
said that Thomas went away from the
yard before Goff did. and he saw the
watch after Thomas had gone and be
fore Goff had left.
The two justices then considered The
evidence, and the Court announced
they had deemed Golf guilty, and com
mitted him to the county Jail fol
twenty days.
