soul that Is completely hidden IN the
breast Of the subject of TINS paragraph,
may be overlooked in the last day i
some one don't call attention 10 H. As
things run on earth, however, Il IS big
enough TO have a name, and Il ls john
son. tie drives two horses and an eS-
press wagon for George Wilson. Ex-
Humane Agent Kennedy and now de
tective, with heart aud eve trained Tor
quick work on this line, discoyerd that
Johnson was using an old bat cruel
method Of urging along one OF the
horses. johnson explains that one Of
the horses j. young, nervous and ambi-
tOus, and tho other old, stiff and slug
gish. The use of Il whip 10 urge along
the old horse excited the younger, and
20 somebody had goad made with
which TO keep up the old horse TO the
gait of the colt. The goad consisted OF
a four-fOOt stick through one end of
which was driven a common sharp
pointed wire nail. Kennedy oonns-
Gated this devllish instrument, and left
IL at headquarters for evidence, and Is
going to get a warrant for the heartless
brute who used il. johnson says that
Wilson, the owner of the team, had the
gOad made, and ordered him To Use 1t
when 'necessary." Somebody Is going
to find out that horses have rights

Few faces are moro familiar at head
quarters than that of Pat HavCs. Pat
bitterly complains because his wife
complained of him. "Who brought
you here tins tmc, Pat?' said by
stander. With a speech that sounded
as if ID came from the Sallvated mouth
of two gallon jug, Pat replied, "Old
woman, guess; guess she's gOln' { keep
me goin'. She thinks this continued
round of pleasure IS too funny" The
complaint charges that Pat threatened
to Kill the complainant, and the by
standers had to interfere, and IT asks
that Pat be put under bonds to keep
the peace. Pats home is typical
drunkard's home, and nothing short of
long confinement will be likely to
sober up Mr.. Hayes.
George III. Brown keeps a saloon on
Canal-st., and the law is after him with
two complaints. 1t is said that he per-
mitted two important days to drop out
of his calendar within a week. One
was Washington's birthday and the
other was the following Sunday. Con-
sequently, he forgot and sold liquor on
those days. Hence these suits. Fol-
lowing the usual tactics in these cases,
he is nursing his two along IN poAcc
court, taking adjournmentS with the
apparent intention of waving examlna-
ton when he gets good ready. This
time, the adjournment was to the 18th
INST, 10 n. m.

the usual $3.50, he was committed to
jail, but friend came in opportunely
and saved him from all but the dis
grace, by paying his fine.
If the trouble had been taken to turn
back to police records of the past, it is
believed that they would tell what

headquarters last night. Heffron could
not or would not give his first name.
The wagon brought HIM from the cor
ner of Wealthy and Grandville-av
