Dust, dirt and confusion are at present

Honor adjourns tho court and goes out
just as quickly as possible. 30 the news
paper feller, searching for an item, usu-
ally don't get IL. This morning he did
learn incidentally that one common drunK
had got months leave OF absence from
his usual hauuts; to be spent under d.
rection OF Warden Wall.
AS he walked down Central street, meet
ing Officer Welch, he inquired IL there
was anything doing on the streets. "No,"
said that guardian of the peace, mot
fhInQ.U Hardly had the scribe got to
Johnny Butman's store, however, when
he saw the officer mai king bee line for
the station with chap In tow who had
full cargo aboard, and little over. He
had Dig stone hammer and said he was
looking for job In quarry. AS a mat
ter of fact, however, he had backed up
against one of the stone abutments OF the
bridge on the railroad track and was
threatening to stop the train when IL
came along. But he did not stop II. The
officer stopped him frst.
SpectacIes at Any Price.
Down stairs at the station was poor
fellow brought In by the sergeant this
morning for peddl,ng "gold- d-bowed spec.
tacleS" without license. The spectacles
were "$4 pair" though he would take
80 cents II he could not get anv more, apd
at that price he made just 100 per cent
profit, as bill found on him showed. The
spectacles were taken In charge by the
chief and the fellow was locked up. II he
can pay out or get some one TO do II Tor
him he will doubtless "stick" enough
people in the course Of the day to pay his
fne twice over and have q little some
thing beside for nest egg.
Alag, a Jamboree and an Arrest.
About ten days ago big moving wagon
belong to Thomas Sweeney, and driven by
q man named Hamilton, went on q kind
of jamboree, so to speak. Ii was mighty
hot day, and after going over the hill and
down through Manville, the turnout was
driven into Woonsocket, where, In trying
to turn around la circus, the pole was
broken short off, and other damage done.
Officer Boulet, agent Of the society with
the long name, seeing the sorry plight OF
the poor horses, ordered the driver to put
them up till the following morning. The
latter allowed that he wouldn't and he
didn't. Consequently the officer arrested
him yesterday or today, and took him into
the court, where he pleaded not guilty,
and his trial was set down for the 18th.
Mr.. Sweeney, the owner Of the team, gave
the required bonds, and the driver IL now
awaiting further developments.
1t seems to be an established doubt, how
ever, that a man can't load up Jag in
Central Falls, cart it all the way to Woon-
socket, display it In public with freedom
and license, and yet go scot free. There
are limits which even two-ho team
cannot overstep with impunity.
Query.
Does selling liquor on Sunday or after
IL O'Clock at night knock out victualing
license or does the constitution knock out
undue interference with a mans vested
rights? A correct and trust ortby an
anxious inquirers who have no liquor to
sell, but who "want to know, you know."
