Charged with illicit liquor selling,
James Boylan, of Federal street, was
given hearing before Police Justice Nc
Neal and about two hundred very
interested spectators at the City Hall on
Wednesday evening, many of whom bad
probably occasionally sampled Boylan's
stock. Several witnesses, including Reu-
ben Ross, Theodore McGinnis. Paddy
Foy. John McGeary and others were ex-
amined and testified that they had pur-
chased merchandise from Boylan's estab-
lishment at various times, and other EVIL
dence of an equally damaging character
was abundantly adduced. On the
strength of this Justice McNeal adjudged
Boylan guilty and gave him the option of
paying the fine and::costs, $5805, or spend
ing ninety days in the county jail. The
fine was promptly paid and it is we'll to
say that the love of sister saved Boylan
from the ignominy of season in the
county Jail. Boylan is an old offender,
and experience apparently teaches him
nothing. Once before he was appre-
hended and his pro6tsr damaged and at
another time he successfully eluded
arrest Inspector McNeal has informa-
ton that will lead to the arrest of others
who are illicitly selling in homemade es-
adjustments. and lightning is liable to
strike at any time.

Political Pointers.

But for the GOODNESS, 6rmn ess and judg-
ment of Chairman ]. Frank Fort the Re-
publican State Convention might not have
legally finished it's business. With polit-
ical tyro IN the chair it would probably
have brok en- up in disorder before the end
of the third ballot. Mr.. Fort held his own
throughout the widest turmoil. By pure
force of character he finally brought the
delegates into sufficient order to transact
business. Under the State law ballot
must be cast in convention to make a
nomination legal. The delegates forgot
this, but Chairman Fort did not. In the
excitement attending the discovery that
Griggs had a majority of the delegates
Mr.. Fort secured sufficient attention to
get motion to empower the Secretary to
cast the ballot. He declared the motion
carried and Secretary Potts cast the ballot.
No one knew that this formality had been
complied with except those who we're at
the elbow of the Chairman.
