HAD A JAG ON.
Pleasant Prairie Farmer Gets Into the
Cooler.


Peter Anderson, farmer. living in
Pleasant Prairie, spent last evening
with Sheriff Abel. The reason of it
all was the fact that the farmer had
INDUCED too freely in the flowing bowl
and was about as drunk as farmers
ever get. Anderson was hauling a
load of fodder and was driving along
Main street. When he reached the
alley near HOLSTERS drug store the
horses pulled the wagan into the curb
and the man made several futile at
tempts to get them started again.
Finally he got off the wagon and led
the horses out into the road and started
again. By this time several bystand-
ers we're interested and discovered
that the pole of the wagon was broken.
The man said he didn't care for that
and started to get up upon the load
again when the horses became excited
and the man was in imminent danger
of being killed, when the onlookers
went out and took the man and his
horses in charge. She man became
furious at this interruption of the spec
tators and showed fight. Street Com
missioner Boyle came along and placed
the fellow under arrest. He was finally
landed in jail by Officer Feldshau. He
had hearing before Justice Slater this
afternoon.
