ECHOES oE IHE STREET.

A young man stepped into a drug store

cologne. He bought a bottle Of cheap
cologne which he said was for his sister.
He then asked the prices of the pot
pourri jars, of which the druggist had a
good variety. After long season of in
decision he purchased a handsome jar
and had it filed. 1t cost $9.45 and was
for his best girl.

LAST EDITION
SELLING LIQUOR ILLEGALLY.
A Number of Illegal Dealers Arraigned
Before JUDGE Ball.


In the Municipal Court room this morn
ing a large crowd had gathered in antici
patton of hearing a number of illegal
liquor cases tried.
In the first case, against James Carker,
a fine of $50 and costs was imposed upon
his plea of guilty
Matthew Kermer. the proprietor OF
Rosendale Park, was charged with selling
liquor on December 8, IL and 10 to
George L. Truman. Kermer pleaded not
guilty. Truman swore that he was at
Rosendale Park on the dates named, and
succeeded in buying liquor in each of
them. He bought it in each case
from Kermer's wife. Kermer was behind
the bar the first time that Truman was
there. Kermer called as q witness for
the defense Joseph Rego. Rego proved a
bad witness, for in reply to Judge Balls
question, "If he ever obtained any beer
there" said 20, yes many times. He
often gave me beer" fine of $3.50 and
costs wa ismposed City Solicitor Tur-
ner said at the end af this case: 1T is
about time that these people understand
that the law win be enforced. Illegal
liquor selling must stop and the authori-
ties propose to close every place up.
Catharine Clark of Lobdell and William
streets, charged with illegal selling,
pleaded guilty in one case and was fined
$50 and costs. Judge Ball warned the
defendant that if she came into court
again he would treat her case much more
severely. He advised her to go into some
other business, as the court did not feel
disposed to grant her license.
Robert Frankford Of the firm of Frank
ford & Whitcraft No. 102 East Water
street, was fined $50 and costs in one
case, and four others against him were
retired on the condition that he would 60
out of the business Should the defend
ant be again arrested the cases will be
tried
Mary Bahrenbach of Hedgeville was
fined $50 and costs for selling without a
license. In sentencing her the court
said: your husband before his death
was engaged in the illegal sale Of liquor
and was fined for it. ! say to you that
you must stop IT, We propose to break
this business up.
Truman, the young man who acted a:
a detective in these cases, is resident Of
this city. Some of his actions after h'
had bought liquor at the places were no
straight by any means. After he haC
bought of Briefly 4 Whitcraft, he called
on Whitcraft and told him what he wa
doing and if Whitcraft wanted to com
promise the matter he could do it. HI
also told him that he had fixed the mat
ter with several other places At on,
place, against which he was a witness
this morning, he had taken dinner at tn
invitation of the proprietor.

SHOULD HE HAVE A LlcENsEl
The Spree Dennis Dougherty Went on
Last Threatening Women.

The Spree Dennis DoHgherty Went on
Last Week-Threatening Women.
Dennis Dougherty Of Rising Sun was
granted license by the court last week.
in spite of the strong evidence that he
habitually violated the law and kept a
disorderly house. Witnesses, whose ties.
timony cannot be impeached, swore that
the applicant did not have lawful stable
accommodations that there was no
access for vehicles to the stable and that
it was too small to contain four stalls
large enough to accommodate horses.
One witness testified that he had held
bottle Of liquor in his hand that had been
purchased and taken away from the
saloon.
One incident will show the irresponsi-
BILE character Of the applicant for this
license His application was acted upon
by the court ON Tuesday afternoon last.
That night Dougherty went home and got
on tearing spree which is not an un-
usual thing for him. Mrs. Collision and
her daughter, living at Henry Clay, were
returning from Wilmington that even
ing, and while in the horse-car depot at
Rising Sun heard a great noise in Dough
ertY's saloon. The ladies' thought it was
fight and waited awhile, being afraid to
venture past the place toward home
While waiting there Dougherty came out
OF his saloon bare headed and
with NO coat reeled down TO
Mulcaheys place, which is between his
and the BrAndywine The latter saloon
has no license, but is open and doing
business. As Dougherty went down the
road the women heard him uttering
threats against the witnesses who had
testified against him that day, and
threatening to destroy the property of a
prominent company whose works are near
the village.
After Dougherty had entered Mulca-
hey's house the women left the horse car
depot to return home. AS they went
down the road, they met Dougherty re-
turning to his own saloon, muttering
curses against the Conlys, who had
been witnesses against him. Seeing the
ladies he took them for members of the
Comfy family and said "There comes the
Conlys now. III shoot every d-d one
of them" The ladies were much fright.
ened and ran out Of his way He then
kept on his way TO his own house where
he finished his spree.
This incident is not the only one that
shows Dougherty to be a man utterly
unfit to have a license. Within the past
two years several other occurrences Of q
threatening and disordeFly character il
which he has figured have occurred
which can be proved by the residents O
the little village and by the mans neigh
bors.

rhe s.. LucIe,. trial TrIr.

The stern paddle wheel steamboat St
Lucie, built by the Pusey & Jones Com
pany for the Jacksonville Tampa and
Key West Railroad Company, was given
a trial trip on the Delaware river on Sat.
urday afternoon. A run was made up the
river nearly to Bombay Hook and return.
The trial was satisfactory excepting in one
respect, the boilers did not generate enough
steam. This is explained on the grounC
that the steam pipes were newly covered
and the covering was not dry, and thu
boiler has not been covered at all. Goa
was used for fuel, while wood is in
tended to be used. Another trial viii
be made in few days
