Got the Wrong Ones.
w. W. ELLIS. Recorder.

Officer Stukel arrested three men last
Saturday night for creating noise and
disturbance on the street near the corner
OF Pine and Sixth. They were brought
before Justice Fisher yesterday and asked
for trial which was TO have taken place
this morning. On further investigation
OF the case it was found that the three
men were not to blame for the trouble
but had got mixed up in it without any
fault on their part and were simply de-
Tending themselves when the officer heard
the noise and arrived on the scene. The
man who caused the trouble got away,
but warrant is out for his arrest.
Charles Jaryi paid 81 fine and the
costs before Judge Fisher Yesterday for
being drunk and causing trouble on the
streets last Saturday night. He was ar
rested by Officer Stukel.
