At Municipal Court on Wednesday
there was an interesting case. IL seems
as II there had been a disagreement be-

used, and they got red In the face. Ex-
element was at great height, and at
last one Of the parties by the name OF
Knapp landed on one said Newton's
jaw, aud he lay peacefully on the snow,
calm and quiet. Said Newton felt
aggrieved, and John c. Swasey was
called to defend said Newton for the
confusion which he had on his jaw by
coming In contact with one knapp's fist.
Justice Swasey thought by the looks OF
his fair face about one dollar and costs
would satisfy all parties. And the court
adjourned zine die.
