John Pickett, a miner residing near
place, went to Kansas City last Mon
day for the purpose of whipping Deputy
Dog Catcher Kennedy, of that city, whom
he accused of alternating the affections OF
his wife, Ella Pickett. Before proceed
ing to finish Kennedy up, according to
the style set forth by "Fitz" in his last
battle, he went to a saloon to obtain the
necessary inspiration, and while there
got into a row and was taken in charge
by a negro policeman and locked up.
The whipping post, which has been
in our state penitentiary after
four years of disuse, seems to be in favor
with the managers of that institution.
Most Of the parties who receive correction
at the post, which is only one of the pill
lars to the stairway to the dark room, are
negroes and they are usually punished
for fighting in their cells over gambling
contests. The post is not called into use
very often and they receive a great many
hard characters at the penitentiary who
have to be dealt with roughly. |
