Down on Him.

day before yesterday on a charge of lille

missed in the city courts on his payment
of the costs in the case, finds the road of
an unlicensed disciple of Aesculapius a
hard one to travel
In addition to his having had to pay
$3.50 in settlement of F. w Hubers claim
against him of $50 for Intellectual medical
treatment, other trials beset him yester-

graduate.

to leave the city, and had their worldly
effects packed up and at the freight house
