JOHNSON MEETS TROUBLE.
Charles Johnson of Hamilton place Is
in trouble and il { ok about week for
trouble 20 catch up Co him, according TO
the police story. About a week ago
Charles became convinced that for his
peace and comfort it was necessary TO
have "a horse and wagon, nj least that is the
idea of the authorities. so lac went look
ing around for an outfit that would suit
his taste A week ago last Friday man,
who Is now alleged TO be johnson,
called on Israel Holbrook of Burrill street
and asked permission to inspect his
wagons saying he wanted cart TO use in
dumping light load OF ashes. Charles
Is colored and so was the man that hired
tho wagon. Tho politics of Charles are
not known nor did the man who wanted
to hire the outfit intimate that he would
let politics interfere with business but at
any rate Democrat wagon was selected
and driven off. MIR. Holbrook saw nothing
of his equipage for some time and notified
the police. Yesterday after giving Charles
n good chance to go TO early church or
take long nap, Officers Gilfoil and Nye
visited famous Hamilton place. which Is
not named after Alexander Hamilton and
cannot be taken as of any political sig
nificance and arrested Charles. The latter
was taken to the Second police station
and this morning had his case attended
TO by the court.
