The Same Mr.. Riley.

Pittsburg Times
One Michael Riley, OF whom Bremen
spoke highly, was called up for trial for
selling poteen. IL was of q sun day, the
day before Monday, two spslpeens called
at the Point, where he kept his shebeen.
Are you Mr.. Rileyfr asked one of them
slyly, and they took a Whit out Of Riley
dhudeen. Il am that same Riley" and up
he jumped spryly and faunted before them
a sprig of the green. "Well, my head it is
achin', be jabers it S breakin' and drop OF
the crature I'd like to have quick" Now
Riley's big-hearted and with them be start
ed, inside of his own door to doctor the
sick. His wife got the wink and before
you could think, she set out two glasses,
and in each one a "stick." They were
drained to the bottom, by the fellows who
got 'em, those disguised infsrmers who
thought they were slick. They paid for the
liquor, and then with snicker, they took
their departure with secret intent, to
make information, down at Central station,
and to see that poor Riley to Claremont was
sent They made information and then
with elatlon, they took out warrant, and
to pinch Riley they went. They found
him sleeping and there was no weeping
when one of them told to him what 1t all
meant.
In jail they ''throwed" him, no mercy
they showed him, and he laid there TIL
yesterday when called to be tried. "Not
guilty" he pleaded, then jury was need
ed, to hear and determine the truth OIL
each side. The informers told their tale
about the alleged sale, of liquor whlef
Riley denied Then the lawyers begun
with theories fine spun, and Bremen as
serted the informers had lied. The charg
| of the court, was of that sort, that left th'
iurymen free to decide. They went L
their room, left Riley in gloom, and sool
| they came back their verdict to tell. The.
found Mr.. Riley, whom they all sPake o
highly, was the same Mr.. Riley who kep
the hotel. At least he sold beer, for didn'
thew hear those inlormers say that he ha'
it to self Riley felt badly aid was LEI
away sadly, Tor the verdict was one h
didn't like well.
This knocked the poetry ali out OF 1t, an'
he was remanded to Jail by Judge Siagl'
for sentence ON Saturday.

Of England by the rulings of It's own

1t was shown that the English courts
