OPEN EVENINGS.
SOME SATISFACTION.
United States Mail Wagon Drivers Are
Not UnaccountabIe.

United States Mail Wagon Drivers Are
Not Unaccountable.
John McDermott, driver for a United
States mail wagon was arraigned in the
Sixth district court this morning charged
with driving faster than an ordinary
travelling gait. He pleaded guilty and
was Rned $40 and costs. For long time
the citizens and residents of South Main
street have been alarmed by the spectacle
of a United States mail wagon, career
ing down the street with terrific speed,
and frequent complaints have been made
to the police.
The mail wagons have the right of way
on the street, aud it is the general feeling
among citizens that that privilege is
abused to great extent A person pass
ing across the street is oftentimes obliged
to "hustle" to get out of the track of the
wagons and vehicles of every description.
At length so numerous became the
complaints that the police investigated
and the result of the Investigations was
evident this morning. 1t is claimed by
some that the wagon is habtually driven
Mt break neck speed and the officers no
ticed that the driver was driving with a
free rein and at the same time using
every means in his power TO accelerate
the speed of his horse. The man was
subsequently ordered to appear in court
and was fined as above stated.
