ployer for His Own Pleasure,

VIM. Bennett, a young man who has
been driver for DR.. Burg for the past four
months, is In jail, on charge Of having
been disorderly. He was given $40 worth
of good bills by the doctor Saturday TO
collect for him, the doctor allowing him
TO use his buggy, and also giving him the
usual collectors commission. No more
was seen of Mr.. Bennett or the horse and
buggy until late yesterday, when he was
traced to Bitter's camp yard on Austin
street. where the buggy was found broken,
the horse was worn out for the time, and
the collector was lying asleep, getting
rid Of of big jag which he had acquired
by purchase with the money, about S23,
which he had collected from the Doctors
debtors.
He was arrested and the case may
probably be transferred to Justice court
