MORE TIME FOR "SCOTTY."
One of Notorious Eagles Nest EN-
pIOyes Serves One Term.

An endless chain of imprisonment for diff
ferent offenses seems to be the prospect of
"Scotty'' Balfour. A three months sentence
for assault and battery was finished by Bal
four yesterday and when he walked into
the Office of the workhouse a commitment
was awaiting him for charge of assault
and battery with intent to kill. He was
taken to the police station and spent the
day blithely singing "On the Banks of the
Wabash Far Away" He was probably
thinking of the banks of Eagle creek for
there is where his troubles sprang. He was
a bartender at the notorious Eagles Nest
resort at Eagle creek and Washington
street. When the police decided to stop the
joyous turbulence of the place .Scotty' and
the negro piano player. ''Oat' Hanse, were
caught in the net. Hanse was brought from
the workhouse yesterday with his Scottish
friend and is charged with assault and bat
terry His emotion was too deep to find ex-
preston in song. 1t is said that when the
police get through with Balfour on the
present charge there is indictment for
selling liquor without a license to greet him.

DANCING SCHOOL INCIDENT.
Mr.. McNIann's Biting Sarcasm, Fol-
lowing the Rumpus.

During the progress of instruction at
colored dancing school in Wright's Hall, on
West Vermont street Mrs. Emma Taylor
and her partner. Mr.. H. G.. McMann, a
waiter, became involved last night in some
slight alteration. which finished by the
lady trying to whip the gentleman. The
lady fell and the gentleman fell on her.
She screamed loudly enough for Patrolmen
Cox and Milan, a square away. to hear her.
They thought a murder was being commit
ted. and rushed to the hall only to find that
the social intercourse had been interrupted
disagreeably. Mr.. McMann was taken to
the police station. relieved of his brass
watch and locked UP. Mrs. Taylor was not
arrested. Mr.. McMann was rude enough
to say that if Mrs. Taylor had been az
home with her husband. where she should
have been. no trouble would have occurred.
He was asked ii he were married, and he
replied that he was. ard that his wife was
at home. Mrs Taylor lives al 800 West Yer
mont street, and Mr.. McMann's home is al
$50 Superior street.
