Mack Weakened at the Law.

Mack weakened IL INC Law
Last Monday night Mack Hopewell,
a colored youth Of tender years but of
mannsh Instincts, attemnted to paint
the ,o1n red. lie was either very
drunk or pretended to be SO, and
staggered about the street using the
most blood-curdIiug language defyinS
law and order and various other
things. He had revolver, which he
fired valantly at nothing several
times. He also had bottle partly
filled with liquor in his pocket lie be-
haycd so badly that Sergeant Rogers
came along and, picking him up.
started toward the jail. Right there
Mack weakened. lie begin TO bawl
like a good fellow, and cries aud la
mentatious filed the air so recently
blue with bad words. The nearer he
cot to the Jail the louded he cried and
the harder he begged. But the Ser
geant was memorable, and Mack was
thrust into the dungeon. 1t is said
that Mack will not under ordinary
circumstances sleep in a room by him
self, and when the minion of the law
left him alone in the jail he lifted up
his voice aud wept yet louder. In
order to prevent the boy from having
fits and spasms, the Sergeant kindly
left lighted lantern in the jail.
Mack was kept there an hour or so,
and when there was no doubt that he
was genuinely repeutant he was re
leased. 1t is probable that he will
have to be very drunk indeed before
he again allows himself TO show the
effects Of into1ication.

sault was released yesterday, and is
now wandering aimlessly about the
streets. Mitchell is crazy at times,
and Is considered dangerous char
acter to run at large He draws a
large pension, but money received
from Uncle Sam does him little il any
good, as he is addicted tc drink and
the gaming te ble, and what cash is not
eaten through these mediums is taken
from him by boosters and buns. Mitch
ell has several strange hallucinations,
which he INDUCES to great extent
lie imagines he is mayor of Perry and
says he is being cheated out of his Of
fee. The old veteran should be taken
charge of by the county officials aud
sent TO some soldiers home or an
asylum.
Sheriff Scruggs of "P" county,
brought another batch of prisoners to
the city last night and lodged them in
the federal Jail. John Brady, con-
victed of petit larceny was placed in
durance vile for term of thirty4eigh I
days, j. II. Martin and John Burke,
charged with the same offense, were
given like sentences. These men are
all stout and able-bolied and instead
of being thrown in,o Jail to eat and
drink and do nothing should be put tC
