ran away from Paden Tolbert who
went out to his home 5 miles from
town to summons him as witness
before the grand jury, and had to
pay the costs of the attachment.
Yesterday Pittsenberger came to
town in the forenoon and tied his
team to the staircase at the foot OF
the steps on the north side OF
Gray's, where the poor animals
were left without food or shelter
till nearly six o'clock. They were
covered with snow and were suf-
telling Severely from the cold. A
warrant was sworn out by hu-
name citizen and Pittsenberger
was arrested and taken before
Commissioner Don Carlos and
fined S5 and costs.
wHIsKEY PEDDLER SENTENCED.
A known whiskey peddler gets
little clemency in Judge Spring
er's court, as was proven in the
case of fellow named Clint Davis
arrested at BartIesville and ar
raigned before the court few days
ago. Davis had carried a quantity
of liquor down from Coffeyville on
the mail hack and it was soon dis
covered and the arrest made.
Search revealed the fact that va
lise and a box were filled with
pint bottles of whiskey. He de.
MED the ownership of the box and
said he could prove by the stage
driver that the box was not his
property. judge Springer post
poned sentence and sent for the
stage driver at Coffeyville, who
yesterday confronted Davis at the
bar and denied knowing anything
about the whiskey. The court
was satisfied as to the guilt of Da-
Wis, although he protested loudly
that he was innocent. The SEN
tence was two years in the peni-
tentiary at Fort Leavenworth and
to pay fine of s25.
JUDGE sPRINGER's cARNATIoN.
Perhaps every one who has had
occasion during the last four years
to sit much in Judge Springer's
court has noticed that his honor
always wears small buttonhole
bouquet of delicate carnations.
This seems to have been his Gus.
tom for a great many years, ex-
tending back through his twenty
years or more service in the con-
gress of the United States. An
incident showing the great per-
sonal popularity of Judge Springer
among his colleagues in congress,
is related by friend. Once
when the prominent lllinoisar

weeks, on his return one morning
after having recovered fully, hi
