POLICE COURT JUSTICE.
CASE OF A SOLDIER WHO DELHI
ERATELY GOT DRUNK.
Two Street Fights Which Results d
Badly for the Participants
KarPs Case Continued.
Minor Cases

A very amusing case was among the
first called in the police court yesterday.
The name OF Dan Reed appeared upon
the blotter with a charge of drunken
ness opposite it. Dan, when told to
stand up by Judge Austin, looked 'chiid-
like and bland" He said he lived at
the soldiers home and came to town for
the express purpose of getting drunk.
Such an honest admission, however,
failed to stay the hand OF Justice, and
from the twinkle in the judges eyes it
was easily ia pe seen that but little mercy
would be used in tempering justice in
the old soldiers case. When the cour t
asked Dan if he succeeded in his pur-
pose, he said he "most aesuredly did,
and got 30 drunk T. had q real good
time" "Five dollars or five days." said
the court, and Dan Reed crossed his
legs, placed his chin in his hands and
watched his fellow imbibers az one by
one they were "bid in" by the court as
subjects for the chaingang.
On Main street yesterday afternoon a
young dairyman, NJ. r. ii. Dd Fey. was
