selling Stale Fish.

A reporter of the BAzoo found
some queer fish at the market house
yesterday. The gilIs had been cut
out and The eyes were lusterless. The
removing of the giIls was a very
clumsy trick and would not fool buy
ers who know how to tell fresh fish
from stale one. The gills of a fish
freshly caught are blood red and the
eyes are bright. When the eyes are
of lead color and sunken and the
gills of a bilious liver color the fish
is unfit to eat.
In order to hide these signs OF decay
the head is frequently cut off in order to
impose upon customers, but simply
removing the gills and leaving the
eyes to tell the story was a clear
hlunder. The appointment of a
market house inspector, which was
made by the council last Monday
night, was a move in the right .direc-
ton.

TWO PLAIN DRINKS.
John Summers Returns to The
'BOOse How Woods Was
Entertained by q
Friend.

There were only two prisoners in
the police court yesterday morning,
both being charged with intoxication.
When the prisoners marched into
the court room the familiar features
OF John Henry Summers was instantly
recognized by the Court.
"John, come here and shake
hands,"
John ambled up to the bench and
his Honor grasped the prisoners dirty
hand.
EYES SIR" nodded Summers. and
wiping stray tear from bis eye, with
his coat sleeve, ambled to a chair in
the prisoners corner.
Alexander Woods and Summers
were commanded TO stand up and an
swer to the charge of being drunk.
Each plead guilty.
Summers pleaded extenuating cir
cumstances. He stated that he had
remained out of town one day longer
than he had promised the court that
he would, and besides, if he was
drunk, which he did not think was
true, it was due to his drinking
whiskey ordered by physician. The
court listened to Summers lengthy
pleaiings and promises of speedy re-
formation and then fined him So aud
costs. On Summers promises TO re-
main strictly sober stay of execution
was ganted.
Alexander Woods related his woes
in a straightforward manner. He
said he had been drinking all day
Friday with one Joe Wolf and when
the shades of night began to fall Jce
invited him to partake of the hospi-
talities of his home and to remain
over night under his roof. The j lily
pair wendell their way to Joe's domi-
,ile on the north side. VOLTS better
lalf discovering the condition of the
men locked the door on them and
-efused to let them in. Wolf later
IN managed to get inside and Woo s
,amped in the hallway. Mrs. Wolf
objected to this arrans ement and she
;allei upon Officer GorrelI and asked {
i'm to arrest Woods. The policeman
complied with the request and Woods
vas locket up. Judge Halstead fined
i'm $3.50 and costs, which he paid.

dades attended a political meeting.
On the way to the meeting the party
passed a team two miles south of
town on the east road to the water.
works which was hitched to a hedge
fence. The horses had on a set of
plough harness and looked as if they
had been standing there without
food or water for several toufs. Upon
the return of the party after II o'clock
OF night, the team was sill standing
there. Yesterday morning Shelf
Smith drove out 10 the place where
the team was hitched and found them
there and almost famished. He
brought them to town and placed
them in Gillman's stable to await
the arrival of the owner. One of the
horses is dark dun and the other a
very dark bay, almost black. The
team was probably stolen and abon-
doned. If left there by the owner
he ought 20 be punished for cruelty

fourteen year old crippled daughter
and hslfsister, arrived on the 3: II
p. m. train from the east yesterday

Mrs. Wilkinson told pititul story.
She said they left Boston, Mas,
about six months ago and they were

she expected TO find her stepson.

illustrious namesake, unable to tell a

tickets for rides from one town to an

a half starved look and looked as if
the tramp had taken near.y all of the
vitality out of her.
Sanitary Officer Kahrs investigated
their cases and learned that they had
been forwarded from SmithtoD to this
point. He did not desire to have
them chsrge on the city or county
and he procured tickets and sent them
to Warrensburg. He also gave them
a small sum of money to buy provis-
